Inglewood ~ is your scan on Tuesday? How exciting!! Fx it goes well and they give you a sneak peak at the gender! you never know though, i was sure this little one was a boy my ds1’s birthday is in may and it was lovely having a baby through spring and summer the car seat looks interesting! I’ve never seen anything like it before.. seems like a very good idea!

Deaks ~ i miss them too, will write one now

Kell ~ bless your friend! That’s so sad! She must be over the moon with her little boy though! big congrats to her!!

Wishing4pink ~ good to hear from you! don’t worry, i will still be here when you start ttc! I love this thread too much to ever leave

Kell, I can't do mine internally as I know I'd leave the thermometer around and the kids would get it! I'm going to start taking mine in the evening too, read in bed for 10 mins then take it as I don't do it in the am as the boys keep alternating waking me up so it would read wrong anyway! Deaks, I haven't had much chance to look but there are study links in there and also think u can ask fertility specialists some questions. There is so much info on here already to take in, so will take me a while to read it all

Deaks - I don't think you should take aspirin and cranberry together at all, no matter what time of day. You might want to ask that on your other thread as Atomic will see it and be able to confirm.

inglewood those seats are amazing!! didnt know they made things like that but by they are pricey!!!! showed them to dp and he said they were a great idea but he also said that wouldnt you have to inform your insurance company about them, as they ask you how many seat the car has and obviously it would have more in??? just seen some second hand ones on ebay

Kelli how long does your bbt thermometer take to read, mine feels like it takes ages and I have to lay there listening to DS2 cry while I wait for it to take the temp!

i use boots digital fertility monitor, bought it on ebay for less than £10 it stores all your temps on a screen and you can set an alarm on it to go off everyday and when it bleeps i stick it in my mouth and go back to sleep and it goes off by itself when it has taken the temp. takes about 5 mins to get a stabilized reading

Crikey, 5 mins and DS2 would have lost his voice from screaming lol

I did see them on ebay for £800. New it's £1300 for the seats then £500 for 2 baby seats, so £1800, but then I owe interest on my loan if I change my car and it's double that!!! Never thought of the insurance Co. Clever thinking DH you got there...
prob just change the car! but cool idea tho, dh is suprisingly up for it, but ds1 is almost 9 and they go up to 12yrs, so would need to change the car before loan term over if he didn't fit!! lol

Deaks, here is the info about sugar levels that was in members : Because XX fertilized eggs (the little clump of dividing cells AFTER fertilization, aka a blastocyst or the bean) divides and grows best in a low glucose environment, and XY divide and grow best in a medium glucose environment. Nobody likes high glucose and so your body takes steps to keep your glucose levels from becoming too high. Glucose is present in your cervical mucus and this is the environment the beans live in during the 2WW, when they implant in the uterus.

Of any aspect of swaying, this has the most evidence supporting it. Beyond the theory, researchers know for a fact that XX and XY suck up different amounts of glucose from their surrounding environment and they can even tell the difference between XX and XY based solely on the amount of glucose they suck up (all the rest of the swaying theories are totally hypothetical - no one has witnessed minerals, pH, etc making any difference at all). XX sucks up more than XY does, so XY may NEED extra glucose than XX does and XX might even suck up too much glucose.

so interesting! this would also explain why it's been proven that women who eat a bowl of cereal everyday has a 50% higher chance of falling pregnant with a boy than women who don't eat breakfast cereal

...and by the sounds of it its really best to stay on the diet until af! its funny (or not if its caused my chemical ) because i have normally been keen to get back on the diet for af and so have my break after ov!! eek not good, not doing that again! Just hope im not loosing too much weight on this diet as i don't want that to stop me from getting pg and sustaining a pg. Mind you i have had breaks so thats at least something!

How is everyone today? X
