<div style="text-align: left;">
Oh the joys of being an army wife! Trying for a baby without Hubby; how does that work? I should be writing this blog from snowy North Yorkshire in our new married quarter talking about how the stress of moving and then unpacking can affect TTC, instead I'm sat on my laptop alone (Lil'Pip is in bed) in rainy wet Plymouth, while Hubby is staying in the Single Block in Topcliffe talking about TTC without a partner. Turns out our new house wont be ready until the 19th March but Hubby's job started on the 6th of this month so he's had to go without me and Lil'Pip for 6 weeks!!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So how do we try without the nookie? There will be no posting Hubby's little men, my turkey baster is for poultry only! So what can we do without spending a lot of money travelling up and down the country for just an hour of baby making, well it gives me a chance to get to know my body again properly (not in any 'self-service' sense) but it's been nearly 2 years since I've had a proper cycle.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I got pregnant in March 2010 so that was 9 months, then I've had 13 months of breastfeeding and the implant so last month, after cutting down on the number of feeds I was giving Lil'Pip and having the implant removed in December I had my first period, which when TTC is always a little bit :( but it means my body is now definitely ready to make another baby.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So now I can start learning my cycle again and noting when I'm most fertile, bring on the graphs!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So what else can we do while were apart? (Because lets remember it takes two people to get pregnant) Roughly working out (without obviously knowing my cycle properly) were going to be apart for 2 cycles so it would be great to actually use this time positively instead of just wasting 2 months trying when were already limited on time before Hubby goes to Afghan.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The most positive thing we can do now is prepare our bodies for TTC and in my case being pregnant again.</div>

I was lucky enough a couple of weeks ago to attend the Emma's Diary bloggers event where I got to meet some of the lovely companys which support the Diary. I also got some samples to try, one of which is Santogen's 'Mother and Father to be'- Multi vitamins for couples when trying for a baby.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'd never seen multivitamins for a man TTC before but the 'Father to be' contains key nutrients including Zinc which is important for a healthy male reproductive system and then it also includes Santogen's 'Mother to be' which contains 18 vitamins and minerals including Folic Acid, good for your health and Baby's development once you get pregnant. So even apart we each take our 1 tablet daily (when remembered- this is why I had the implant and not the minipil!l) and together are getting our bodies ready for TTC.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Another great company I talked to were the ladies from Tena who have just released a great <a href="http://www.lightsbytena.co.uk/mypffapp" target="_blank">free app</a> for iPhone and android for your Pelvic Floor exercises. Last time I was pregnant I didn't really think about my PF until after Lil'Pip was born which meant I had a couple of 'Ooops moments' including at 8 months pregnant walking to the Midwifes (luckily only round the corner) and sneezing... DO i need to explain any more lol!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So this time I'm starting early (or should I say continuing as still do them since Lil'Pips birth) and The ‘my pff’ application is awesome, it has daily reminders and has tutorials from professional pilates instructors so no excuse not to do them right or forget. Also little tip, Pelvic Floor Muscles don't just help with those 'Ooops moments' its also great for your sex life, especially if you can learn to do them while your 'ahem' making, it keeps the fun in trying (or not trying) and believe me your partner will thank you :P</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Finally, and probably the biggest task I'm attempting is to lose some weight (OMG Wish me luck) to try and get down to a healthier BMI after having Lil'Pip. Not only is a healthy BMI recommended when TTC but I'm running out of excuses now to still have my baby weight (and a bit more lol) I've used the breastfeeding excuse for 13 months now to not diet but the time is here, its time to lose some tires! It'll make conceiving easier, pregnancy healthier and I'm sure Hubby wont complain when with more body confidence I jump him :P</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So wish me luck TTC without a partner, and a big shout out to any other ladies out there who have to cope with being away from their husband regularly whether TTC or not. It's not easy to be away from the person you love and it takes a lot of strength to be in a relationship when one or both of you has to be away for long periods of time. But hey, they must be worth it or we wouldn't do this to ourselves, I know Hubby definitely is :)</div>

My Lil’Pip has been ever so poorly and Mummy has been
ever so exhausted. The joys of breastfeeding- when they’re ill, you have a very
clingy baby- although I should really stop calling him a baby now as he’s 14
months, a chatterbox, doesn’t let mummy feed him, a confident walker (and
runner) and tonight he has gone into his first big boys bed with no problem.
Its official my baby is no more, he has been replaced over night by a totally gorgeous
and highly intelligent but sometimes naughty little boy… and Mummy is so proud…
and so slightly sad… but so excited… but so nervous… I’m not ready for my Lil’Pip
to grow up this quickly! Slow down please lol… I just want to hold onto my baby
for a little longer.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
The only problem I had was where to start?... The answer came when <a href="http://www.emmasdiary.co.uk/">Emma's Diary</a> were looking for a new online TTC blogger, step in... me!!! Hurrah a place to begin my Blogging and what an amazing place to start! A focus, a ready audience and lots of support... <br />
<br />
The issue?... I had to get the gig first- a daunting prospect for someone who had never written a blog before, but<em> </em>I sat down determined and within 20 minutes had my application 'blog' and off it went through the powers of the web to be 'judged' and I would have to wait a whole day to find out how my entry did. <br />
<br />
I'll be honest I really didn't think I would get it so put the thought to the back of my mind and the day flew by quickly, on the day of reckoning I logged into my email and there I saw (1) I clicked on that little number and there was an email from Emma... Did I dare to look?...<br />
<br />
I dared...<br />
<br />
"We would love if you would consider joining the ED Blogging Family!"<br />
<br />
Woohoo!!! Queue the phonecalls and texts to my family and of course Hubby sharing my excitement but then WACK! The self-doubt hit me! OMG what if this was a one off? Can I really do it again?<br />
<br />
A week later I was at the Emma's Diary Blogger meet and greet event meeting all these 'real' bloggers, women (and man lol) with real wit and interesting lives that could keep people interested... OMG i was so nervous I didn't know if I would even be able to say my name let alone anything else. <br />
<br />
But I was worrying for nothing, everyone I met that day was totally lovely and very supportive, and Lil'Pip was confident enough for the pair of us! He completely stole the show, just like he does everywhere he goes :) <br />
<br />
I met fellow TTC blogger <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/AnotherGoldfish"><span style="background-color: white; color: #073763;">@AnotherGoldfish</span></a> from <a href="http://www.anothergoldfish.co.uk/">Another Goldfish</a>, New mum bloggers <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/ellatamsen"><span style="color: #2b7686;">@ellatamsen</span></a> from <a href="http://bellslittleone.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: #2b7686;">Bell's Little One</span></a> and her gorgeous baby boy Oliver (who I could have quite easily put in my bag and taken home) and <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/TheRareBitBlog"><span style="color: #2b7686;">@TheRareBitBlog</span></a> from <a href="http://cymrubaby.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: #2b7686;">The Rare Bit</span></a> and her beautiful daughter Elle, also there were pregnancy bloggers <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/JumblyMummy"><span style="color: #2b7686;">@JumblyMummy</span></a> from <a href="http://www.mellowmummy.co.uk/"><span style="color: #2b7686;">Mellow Mummy</span></a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/liveotherwise"><span style="color: #2b7686;">@liveotherwise</span></a> from <a href="http://liveotherwise.co.uk/makingitup/"><span style="color: #2b7686;">Making It Up</span></a> and her Smallest (who did not appreciate Oliver annoying her and stealing her pencils lol) and finally flying the flag for Daddy bloggers was <span style="color: #2b7686;">@kiphakes </span><span style="color: black;">from <a href="http://www.kiphakes.com/"><span style="color: #2b7686;">Kiphakes.com</span></a>.</span><br />
<br />
Reading their blogs <span style="text-align: left;">has been a big inspiration and given me the courage to start Love Always, Jamie-Leigh x</span><br />
<br />
So anyway heres the blog that started it all... My first Blog for <a href="http://blog.emmasdiary.co.uk/">Emma's Diary...</a><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sound stressful? Well were also trying to conceive...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Doesnt sound like the ideal time really does it? Well im just a sucker for punishment- the truth is I love my life, especially our gorgeous son and my step son and cant wait to give them a younger sibling but my husband is being deployed to Afghanistan in September for 3 months so we have the choice of trying now or waiting another 12 months and seeing as hubby 'roasts his stuff' in a hot kitchen all day, I'm not waiting <span class="emote_text">:D</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hubby likes to think were not trying but were not 'not trying', so basically just getting on as normal but without the funny feeling hormonal implant in my arm. The thing </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">is I dont know 1 woman who wants to get pregnant who can successfully just 'not not try', you're always thinking "Lets make a baby", "This position isnt going to help", "I wonder if we just made a baby" and waiting to find out.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Were apparently doing it this way so that were not disappointed every month if and when every girls least favourite aunt arrives, but it doesnt work! When you want to get pregnant and you know its not happening this month you get disappointed, maybe even upset if youre like me but thats the point of trying to conceive, your TRYING!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whether is works one month or not, you try again twice as hard next month until you get your big fat positive. If it worked straight away it would just be called 'conceiving' a much less interesting abbreviation and think of all the 'trying' you would miss out on because lets face it once your pregnant you may not be in the mood anymore and finding the time with a new baby is a big task, plus you would miss the excitement of FINALLY getting that positive.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">So Hubby can look at it whatever way makes him feel best but me... Well I'm enjoying the start of our newest adventure waiting for our BFP and I'm definitely going to enjoy the "trying"</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> </span><span class="emote_text" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">;)</span><img class="emote_img" height="1" src="https://s-static.ak.facebook.com/images/blank.gif" style="background-position: -80px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;" title=";)" width="1" />"<br />

And we decided it was time to start trying for our next child :D</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now me and Hubby are temporarily apart as Hubby works in Topcliffe closer to Mini-Man and me and Lil'Pip wait for our house to be ready up there and our family can be reunited.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br />So now you're caught up...</div>

I am so very happy in my life and looking forward to all new adventures our family has to come, but I wonder sometimes how easy it is for an individual Bi-sexual woman to keep her identity while fitting it in with my role as Wife, Mother and Step-mother... so look out for some curious and sometimes deep ramblings as well as my random thoughts and updates as me and Hubby TTC and raise 2 happy healthy boys!</div>
