Hiya Mary<br>This time round I cut out the gym (I'm a bit of a gym nut). Took Pregnacare. Drank lots of water. Didnt have a bath on my 2ww. Also, apparently it takes 3 days for the embryo to embed so I didnt leave the house for 3 days - just sat on the sofa and vegged out.<br>It worked and I'm still in shock!!<br>Good luck<br>Bertie x
