Just imagine.......

The absolute horror.....

Your alarm clock goes off at 6:15am, your bladder just about to burst...... But you first need to temp, pop that thermometer under your tongue and pray that you don't wet the bed. Beep beep.

You fly out of bed, in mid air you grab your cup. Legs shaking, eyes half open, thighs tingling, making sure you aim correctly..... only to discover you no longer have any Pee Sticks left.... What a shocker, what will you do now??

Remember our Making Babies offices close on Thursday, 17 December, to avoid the Pee-Stick-Less feeling, make sure you place your order today!

Don't be caught without a HPT this silly season!

Another Conceive Plus BFP!!!

I'm super excited because I get to share my best friend's BFP with you all!!!

Go visit her blog here.....

Not only is she my very very good friend, she is also a Making Babies member who used Conceive Plus lubricant this past cycle.

Hun, I'm so happy for you guys and so honoured that I get to share this journey again with you.

Just rubs me up the wrong way.....

When people try to take advantage of couples TTC...... argh, rubs me up the wrong way..... yeah I know I send out plenty of mail with our latest Making Babies specials and news... BUT, I was so upset this morning when I got this "private message" from someone over at another forum.

She sends me this:

Hey hun, I understand your TTC frustration.

Believe it or not, my husband and I tried to conceive for more than 2 years. We tried to refrain from sex for days and even weeks but it didn't help.
Worst part is, there were empty hopes - I thought I was pregnant but in the end I wasn't. It's really frustrating and I understand that.

I was in this forum some time ago and I asked a question similar to yours and a person recommended me a book. It's entitled "Getting Pregnant Bible". I swear it's like a gift from God!

It teaches stuffs like the seven things you need to do before even you try to get pregnant to ensure a healthy pregnancy; the appropriate diet to conceive; how to increase your husband's sperm count; the ovulation cycle and many others!

I am already having my 4th child now! I really recommend that you try reading this book out. Also, they are currently giving free bonus books like fertility secrets and choosing your baby gender! It's for a limited time only!
And it was featured in The Oprah Winfrey Show recently!

Learn more about it here:

Goodness me. I sent her a PM back saying: You obviously did not do your homework properly before PMing me...... (of course I alerted the MODS on that forum about this "spamming")

Everyone here on Making Babies, I take a personal interest in. I check up on you girls, I read your updates. We keep in touch. Obviously this woman just randomly picks contact details on this other forum and private messages them. Aai, irritates me.......

Vitamin D and Infertility

I'm cheating today, and going to make you visit my good friend's blog to read all about Vitamin D and Infertility. Pop on over to Finding Family with Empty Arms

I'm sure most of you are busy wrapping up all loose ends for 2009 and getting ready for the "silly season".

Please note that Making Babies will be closed for orders from 17 December 2009 until 1 January 2010. So if you would like to place orders for December, please ensure that you order reaches us before our offices close.

We are once again offering a "free shipping option" on our Home Pregnancy and Ovulation tests. With any 10 Pack that is ordered you will receive your shipping Free of charge. (Registered Mail option).

Have an awesome week!

Winner of the November Comp!

Drum roll ....................

How I would announce my Pregnancy to my Husband by Cinnamon Girl

My husband has wanted a new, decent, fancy camera for a long time now. Cameras and his family are like Cookies and Ice Cream. In fact it is a running joke that they look like a family of Japanese tourist when they get together during a function. Even hired photographers have commented, in some cases with envy, on the equipment members of the family own just to take everyday family snap shots.

The only camera we own is hand me down Canon he inherited from his sister. Now this is of course nowhere near the type of photographic equipment my husband would like. Don’t get me wrong the type of camera he would like is relatively modest.

I have urged him to go and buy the camera of his dreams on several occasions, but he has always shrugged it off and used the money for something around the house.

Now if I do finally fall pregnant, I have put away a decent amount of money and I have decided that I will announce my pregnancy with a decent NIKON Camera.

With this said camera, I will take its first photograph of my positive home pregnancy test. Then I will tie a bow around the camera and place it into the arms of a nice big teddy on the bed with a note.

The note saying:

You have always looked for an excuse not to buy yourself this camera.

Well I have the best excuse for you to own it.

You will need a camera fit to capture all the special moments.

You are going to be a father.

I love you and thank you.

I will be sending you your prize ASAP!
