I am not even 100% if I have ov'd yet. I have had a dark opk the other day but not as dark as last months. It was v.close to the control line but I am unsure as to count it as a +ve. If it was then that would mean I ov'd yesterday. We dtd yesterday and are going to today and tomoz and miss a day then dtd (kinda like the SMEP) I just hope something goes right this month!

How are you doing? Are you using opk's?

I'm not using any OPK's but I think I may invest in a CB one next month if nothing sticks this month. We dtd yesterday and Saturday but OH is away now at work until Friday night so I'm hoping I did actually ovulate over the weekend!

What okp are you using?

I haven't bought anything but I have a crib, self swinging swing a cot and clothes from when my son was born. I only kept the good quality clothes, my crib i just LOVE...took me hours of wander around the shops to find the one I wanted, and the self swinging swing is a MUST for a baby IMO, my son was a very unsettled baby who suffered really bad colic and never slept and the swing would sooth him.... I swear the swing alone saved my sanity. It's now been discovered that due to autism he doesn't produce the hormone that makes you tired, hence he still has sleeping problems!

I use some of the cheapies off ebay. I got a v.strong +ve last month but so far this month I havent had one as strong although my strongest was on sat which is around the correct time so I am taking that as my +ve one!

i brought and slept with a teddy and blanket whilst i was pregnant.... and really settled them to this day both sleep with there blankets and teddies apparently mothers sent it very strong and as they been in us all that time when there born they miss us and feel alone even when near us wrapping them snuggly in a blanket that smells of us is meant calm them.

and i agree swinging crib is a must!

if anyone is doing moses basket to cot i suggest putting moses basket in the cot as the change for me was worse sleep ever lol

 

[Lisa2701]

My son out grew his crib pretty quickly but i felt he was still too small for a huge cot so i put him into a travel cot i have. What is fab about that is that the travel cot I have has a vibrating mattress so as soon as my son started stirring at night i'd hit the vibrate button and it would settle him back down to sleep! Was so sad his big cot didn't have it LOL. x

Ah.... do you think they are ok then? The CB one is soooo expensive but I wasn't sure about the cheapie ones, do you recommend them then?

I'd also take it as +ve

[Lisa2701]

WOW my son was 4 months old before we even started the nursery LOL. He was in our room up until that point anyway so we didn't see the rush .... we were also very young (19 and 20) when we had our son, so life was a little less organised LOL. WE will definitely be more organised this time round. Although this time round we will probably keep the baby in our room much much longer, we were pressured into putting our son into his own room. Actually no, we went on holiday and returned to our nursery done for us (not how we had planned) and all the cots etc moved out of our room...we were not pleased, but thats another story isn't it...mother in laws eh?
