I'm Currently Feeling: | candice123 - sorry to hear about your family - I too had problems last year and lost contact with my Dad but hopefully that’s started to change now.
It is really difficult to keep it a secret but we're trying.
I've got an issue at work at the moment - basically they want to re-locate one of us to another office which is 40 miles away - not far but as I only have to travel 11 miles at the moment to work it will make a big difference not only in travel costs but time. Well it is between both me and a guy I work with who is divorced but had a 13 year old daughter who does not live with him. It's between both of us as we live nearest to the other office. He has said that he will not go because this will cause childcare issues for him as he has his daughter once during the week. My manager (who is male) told me that it would likely be me who has to go as I have no children  that made me so mad when he said that. Anyway - I don't really know where I stand - when I eventually have a baby which I hope will be very soon then have to return to work very part time after my 1 year maternity leave but will probably be unable to if they move me to this other office. I’m wondering if I should tell work that I am TTC and how this move may affect me. Or maybe it too early to do that? | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Miss Monty, I think unfortunately that ur boss has made up his mind already. These guys probrably have a male bonding thimg going on and the childcare issue card is always being played at my work also. Its soooo frustrating. You could try telling your boss that you are TTC, and see what he says. If he gives you a lot of attitide and gets shirty, couldnt you go above him to his superior?
Thanks Cherry blossom, its hard, everyone around me has such a 'normal' family, and it helps to know that not everyone is the same. (I like ur pic by the way) We have also been married for 1 yr, 1month ( almost) 10th DEC. | | | | Status: Offline

Although its not really as all you guys know  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | How do you find the opks? I got some from ebay and they are the on call brand. I have been using them for about a month now, and I think I have just got the hang of it. I got a definite surge at 10.30 last night and a negative at 5pm tonight. I think I have the hang of it. (We did BD of course!). | | | | Status: Offline
