I gave up everything you're supposed to except peanuts last time, and will probably do so again.
AF arrived this morning so this is the start of the 1st ttc cycle, so I guess that stuff is all out the window now!!
good luck with your ttc

We go away on monday and I plan to cram in as much drink as I can while we are away as I'll be stopping as soon as we get back.
I'm also starting to think about and savour the flavours of foods i'll miss like Pate, seafood, runny eggs etc
The other thing i'm having lots of and enjoying is scalding hot baths. I love my bath so hot that i look like a lobster, but i know i need to stop that... so i'll be bringing the temp of my bath down when i get back.
- Wine
- Soft cheese, pate etc
- Make a cake and do out the bowl
- Rollercoasters if they're your thing (I went to Alton Towers just before!)
- Go in a jacuzzi
- Have an aromatherapy massage
- Did I mention wine?
whats the deal with jacuzzis?? i never got why you couldnt go in them, they never seem that hot, is it the bubbles??!
I'll be honest - I still ate runny eggs and peanuts (both occasionally) whilst preggers with my first. I waited until the second trimester but after giving up soooo much including RARE STEAK I just couldn't give up runny eggs. I made them semi runny and LOVED it.
And have just discovered that my OH makes the BEST hot chocolate with Bailey's ever!! so we're having that every night just now! but as soon as I've had the wee line on the ov stick that says make sure you BD tonight that'll be going to
* Alcohol
* Tremendous amounts of coffee
* Lots of nights out with my friends
* Wearing high heels constantly
* Wearing my skinny jeans pretty much constantly
* Lots of lie-ins
* So many mummy, daddy and Jak days that my computer crashes from all the photos and videos we load onto it
* Heaps of mad, wild sex
* Lots of exercise and use of my Slendertone while I still can
* A tattoo
* Alcohol
ive ticked off a couple more things i wanted to do, just one more thing now really - to go to the races and get dressed up in the posh bit and have some champers (preferably after a big win!), got the hubby on for organising that one!!
I forgot some things:
* Have a bunch of cheeses: stilton, docelatte, brie, camembert and gorgonzola to name but a few.
* Eat lots of runny egg
* Eat lots of rare steak
* Have tonnes of pate
That may be the complete list now! 9 months was a hell of a long time last time, I definitely need to get lots of living in if I'm going to do it again!
