The sniffing has begun!!!!
DH has branded me a druggie!!!! said was i sure i wasn't snotting coke!!! ?

Anyway, i was worried and didnt sleep well before, but woke at 7am and went striaght into sniff, the 1st spray was ok, and then 30 seconds later the liquid run down to my throat, I thought i was going to be sick, it made me gag!!! yuk!!!!
I cleaned my teeth, and then worried that i'd spat it out!!!
So this evening, i just drank water, and that seemed to do the job!! I still gagged when it hit the back of my throat, but now im of the starting mark, it feels good!!

Glad the taste is getting better hun! Bet it won't even taste soon!

Julie / Kate you lucky things getting to see Take That! I am green......... :wink:

Well I have just discovered I have already piled on 6 lbs!! I am a bit shocked - should only have put on 2 lbs by this time. I haven't been exercising at all since finding out as too scared and too knackered but now I think I need to get my ass in gear and go swimming :D !!

Lisa my weight gain is horrendous! I always use to weigh about 8 to 8 ½ stone I put on a stone with all the IVF and have now put on another 3 stone with the pregnancy, I am hoping what they say about breast feeding helping with loosing weight is true!

Nicki glad the taste is getting better, is it twice a day you sniff?

Hi to everyone else.

I can’t believe the sun is out here for the 2nd day in a row. I actually sat outside in a t-shirt yesterday and it was really hot in the garden.

I ran off crying (like a big baby) today when a customer gave me grief, normally i would of taken it on the chin, but this guy sent me to tears, and then i had to explain to my assistant manager why??? Oh dear!!!! ( only my line manager know's at work!) so i said sorry and told her it was time of the month!!! LOL!!!!

AnywayDH has been a rock!!! I love him so much, I did cry over him this evening too, when he told me i'd left the light on in our bedroom!!!!
But he was full of hugs, and i was just crying!!!

Ive got flu symtons! sore throat and sniffles all day today??? Is that the synerol or do u think i really have a cold coming???

I feel so tired too, fell asleep early last night and i think i will be off to bed shortly actaully!!

Julie sorry to make you jealous but I sat in the garden again, there was me 2 cats and 2 rabbits all enjoying the sun. Its definitely a mood booster the sun. I hate dark rainy days. Its not long until you start your FET, I can’t wait to see BFP’s for you all.

Nicki hormones are horrible things and so unpredictable but as you say at least you know the drugs are working. It can be stupid things that set the tears off like leaving the bedroom light off! Big hugs to you. The sore throat could well be the drugs, fingers crossed that’s the case, my DH has a bad cold at the moment, I am praying I don’t get it.
Thanks about the weight issue, I think I may have to stay in maternity clothes for quite a while after baby is born. I don’t really want to buy a load of new clothes as I am planning on taking at least a year off work, so trying to not spend too much money at the moment. You will be fine with the injections, the first one is the worst, but its easy after that.

Lisa I also feel better knowing I am not alone with the weight gain. Are your normal clothes still fitting?

Congratulations Jen, can’t wait to hear all the details.

Hi to everyone else

I think my nesting instincts have kicked in, I was down on my hands and knees washing the skirting boards this morning!! I am knackered now and baby has somehow managed to hook a knee or an arm under my rib cage and its really uncomfortable, bless her, I don’t think she has enough room now.
