Right - had a bit of a chance to catch up now. Good luck for testing tomorrow Janine. Have everything crossed for you.
FMS - I haven't really had a chance to think about symptoms or testing yet. FF says I am 8DPO but Im sure I OVed later so I'm saying that Im 7DPO. Either way, I'm going to do my best to get to Thursday before I start testing. My temps are still all over the place and I feel totally normal so at this stage Im not holding out much hope but I know it is early days still. TBH I am getting very little sleep because of DS (anyone got any great sleeping advice for one-year olds??) and DH had a shoulder operation 2 months ago and still can't use that arm so I am having to do most things alone (respect to single parents out there!) and I am thinking that while I am under all this stress and not getting sleep, I just don't think it will happen for us. We actually had a chat last night about holding off on TTC until his arm is better and he can help out with things again - especially at night. But we both want a smallish age gap so not sure what to do. Just feeling like I wouldn't cope right now if I were pregnant and especially if I get bad MS like last time. Anyhoo, that is enough of a ramble from my side. Thanks for listening/ reading if you've made it this far. Having a feel-sorry-for-myself moment...

great to hear your thermometer is in the right spot. Everything will fall into place as you get into a rhythm.
from my sweet husband. I think it would be very sweet to have another baby 9 months from tonight LOL 
it's fine to have a moan sometimes! Is your lo teething or unwell? What do you have do to get him back to sleep? My DS was poorly and up in the night then he got better but would still wake, like it had become a habit. We had to train him out of it. We knew milk always got him back to sleep (although we knew he didn't 'need' it) so over a few nights we gradually began diluting the milk with water so eventually it was just water, then he wouldn't bother waking because it was just water. We also would not go into him if he was just whinging, it would have to be full on crying for us to go in - sometimes the whinging was him trying to help himself. It's so hard if they're going through a teething stage though and they are in pain, then it's just a case of lots cuddles and meds. Hope it improves for you mannymoo - sleepless nights are no joke.
