   Finally taking the plunge and we are officially trying for baby number 2. 
I've gone & bought Blackmores pregnancy tablets to start taking for preconception. I have some ovulation tests and a couple of pregnancy tests for over the next few months.
 Anything else I need?
 I have been thinking about charting my cycle but I was told that you need a BBT thermometer but I can't find one. The sales lady at the chemist didn't even know what that was and there isn't any on TradeMe that I can find. Any ideas where I can get one? Are they necessary for charting? I have a digital thermometer or are the BBT ones more accurate?
 
 I'm soooooo excited!
 Can't wait to get pregnant again even though I vividly remember the all day vomiting, the constant kicking and the general discomfort, the 30+ hour labour!!! Hahahaha my fiancee thinks I'm nuts! Lol!

   Um the blackmores stuff has got folic acid in it so it should be enough? I hope anyway! I never took any last time (woops)    .

   I havn't got a proper BBT thermometer but its a good digital one, I think it is better if you can get a BBT one but you don't have to, mine seems to be doing the job just fine.
