I'm Currently Feeling: | Ahaha. I know why it's the same price. It's the same company. I just got it directly from their website instead of through ebay.
I haven't got it yet. I ordered it on Saturday. I should have it by the weekend I'm hoping. *fingers crossed* |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Ladies as soon as you get your  please do NOT drink Raspberry Leaf Tea.... not until your about 32 weeks pregnant, it it used to strengthen and tone the muscles of the uterus, helping them to contract more efficiently during labour, also drinking it prior to delivery helps to shorten the second stage of labour by making contractions more effective..... There is a concern that drinking it in the early stages can cause probems, although I dont think this has been proven, im pretty sure none of you would want to risk it! Sorry to put a downer on it but wanted to warn you all  |

| Oh this is superb! I love the sound of the mixture in this stuff, but can't indulge this cycle as I have already filled my own little food cupboard in the kitchen with my TTC stuff. I've had to cleverly conceal the contents in case a visitor decides to look for the sugar.
Can you image them opening the cupboard and seeing a tin of lecithin, all the fertility teas, the Boots 'WANA-BE-A-MAMMA' vitamin tablets and a jar of EPO with a picture of a naked lady on the front. Flippin' heck ... knowing my luck it would be my mother-in-law!!!
I can hear the conversation now:
ME: "Fancy some tea?" as I open the cupboard and the contents spill to the floor, pregnancy vitamins with naked lady on the front rolling out in between my mother-in-law's feet.
MIL: "Oh, are you two trying for a baby?" excitement brewing and her eyes opening wide with delight.
ME: "No, no, they're for the cat". Cat is a kitten aged 14 weeks .... pants I think, I'll never get away with that one.
Oh the embarrassment. I think I'll hide the vitamins in with the wheatgrass when it comes. Should be safe in there as no-one else will want any. |

I have been taking pre-natals for a little while now. I hosted a party for my friend, Sam's b-day, and one of her friends, Robin, had come for it. I had been drinking the whole night and having a good time.
Some time after the party, Sam informed me that Robin was mad at me that night. I asked Sam why and she started laughing. She said that Robin thought that I was pregnant cause she saw the pre-natals on my kitchen counter, and she was so angry at me for drinking while I was in a family way.
Sam corrected her rather quickly.  |
