Ok ...had a good long talk to the hubby last night, and we realised that life has been on hold the last 10 months waiting for baby to be conceived. It looks this this month will be a bust - pre-AF cramps are coming and going(and a couple of really sharp ones actually woke me up in the wee smalls this morning! How rude!). So, I'll temp until the end of this cycle, then next cycle, no charts, no temping, no calendar watching, zippo - my ticker will be going on day one of my cycle so I'm not tempted. AND we're going on holiday. Probably not for a few months, but we're thinking maybe Fiji. My MIL thinks Brisbane, but I'm not sure. I've only been to Singapore, and travelling makes me ridiculously anxious, so somewhere closeish to home sounds good.

So, that's my plan. Let's see if I can actually stick to it!

Thanks guys Maybe a holiday will do the trick, who knows? Relaxing sounds heavenly though, so I intend to do a whole lot of that!! That way, once we're nice and rested, if we need to take things to the next stage, consult a Dr or whatever, we'll be ready to face it.

if relaxing is the plan go for Fiji! Can't do anything but relax. Oz has the temptation of theme parks and shopping.

i don't want to get your hopes up simonne, but i had lots of AF cramps leading up to my missed period

fiji sounds absolutely fab right now!!! *looking out at the rain* can i carry your bags??
i think the best time to conceive is when your both totally relaxed and not thinking about it so a holiday is a great idea!!

Thanks Jacks Mum! Well, you never know One might well have snuck past the goalie! I guess I'll know in a week or so! Wouldn't that just be the devil's luck?

I do have a pretty big suitcase actually (bought it that way for when I went to Singapore - so I could fit half of Singapore in it coming back!) ...how small do you fold up??

Good plan!! Just thought I'd mention that Andy and I spent so much time focusing on TTC for a long time. In the end it was too heart breaking to continue, every month AF would arrive and I would get so sad. So we decided to stop, I enrolled to go back to uni, got a job, stopped thinking about it and whaddaya know? Baby number two arriving in October.

And a holiday sounds like a damn fine idea, Fiji or Brisbane, they both sound good to me!

Hope you enjoy the break!

A holiday sounds great. My husband and I were at one stage putting too much focus on trying to get pregnant so we decided to take the focus off and brought two mountain bikes, kayak and got into some sport and bang the next month I found out I was pregnant. I really think by focusing on other things really helps and takes the pressure off.

That's what I though AnnaD and Millie. Stop focussing on it, maybe stop thinking about it and just see what happens. It's precious time too really, being just the two of us, because when we do conceive, it'll never be just us again, so I want to start making the most of it. Hopefully a baby won't take forever, but taking the focus off means that I maybe won't go around the bend in the meantime !

Sounds like a good plan Simonne! I know what you mean about making the most of it being just you and your partner - even tho our bub was very planned, and a long time coming, I still feel like I didn't make the most of it being just me and Maya, and now I am so sick and grumpy that baby brother or sister is already impacting Maya's life in a big way even tho he/she is only a few mm long...
