Thanks all x Do you think dinausaurs are too boyish?

Ooh yes, tell them all the fairy stories my Dad made up for me. Take them into the woods looking for elves and pixies and fairies and brownies.

Hi all, I have dotted in and out a couple of times in the past but mostly to read not to contribute. Now we are really focussed on ttc and I thought I would introduce myself properly. Unfortunately not with real name as I dont know who reads this and we are not telling anyone we are ttc to...

None of that sounds silly. I agree that you can never feel prepared, plus its scary how much it will change your life. I definitely feel ready because i'm in my thirties and married and we have a house and jobs and when will there ever be a better time? All we need now is the baby. Hurry up...

Um..... Giving up work! Getting to stay at home and nest a bit. Your list is so lovely, but the reality for me is that I just long to be a mummy and take care of my little one

I've given up drinking and i've given up smoking (not that i was much of a drinker or smoker but i did both from time to time). Its only been 4 days and it's really boring!!! I'm taking up Tai-Chi classes next week. I want to loose about a stone in weight as well. Anyone got any motivational...

Umm, it's been 6 months so does that work out as cycle 7?

Get Pregnant Declutter the guest bedroom for new arrival Stop obsessing about baby names Repaint the sitting room Eat more spinach Buy a grapevine to cultivate and see if i can make wine (i know that last one is not very TTC but it's on my want list) What are yours?

My herbalist gave me some pills, and one of the ingredients is definitely Semen something.... I'm guessing ground up balls of some animal! Not keen on investigating too closely

I make tea in general from herbs and plants. I'm very fond of fennel tea. I save the seeds and grind them up when i cant get it fresh. Or mint tea or nettle or dandelion. I used to be a coffee addict, but feel so much better now i've given it up

Thank you very much :-) Is anyone trying anything 'out of the ordinary'?

I got 2 cards that said that! I didnt think it was tactless as I am close to neither, but as people never know who is trying to concieve then maybe they should think twice. On the other hand, if I hadnt found TTC so hard it wouldnt have ever occured to me that it can be a really stressful and...
