Amy - I do all my shots in the morning as it's just more convenient, especially when I was travelling for work. It just got them out of the way and I could forget about them and just get on with my day. I think it's ok as long as you're consistent with the timing. All my other medication is taken in ...

Hi girls

Big J - had goose bumps when I read your post - what a great 'problem' to have! I can't imagine going from no family, to having 4 children in a matter of a few years! Bummer about the nausea but I've heard it's a very good sign in early pregnancy...All the best for a smooth 9 months and ...

Hi girls

Yeah Jen - I agree - it is certainly an 'experience' being the only sober one in a room full of people completely hammered! For some entertainment, make sure you have a camera ready so you can at least get some leverage out of the evening! :wink:

Things have been a bit schizaphrenic ...

Bollocks - just lost a long but whiney post! (just as well to spare you ladies...!)

Chriss - funny you should mention Nicole Kidman being pregnant! When I heard the news, I got quite depressed. Now how pathetic is that!? It's not like she's a friend of mine or anything .:lol: I don't know why I got ...

Hi Chriss, Catharine - my 2 cents worth...

I too have always been a bit of a sporting fanatic (tennis, golf, yoga, gym), but my last clinic banned patients from all forms of exercise during any form of treatment. They stated that exercise takes the blood flow away from the ovaries and uterus when ...
