Mon - you always give me great advice One day at a time is the only way... and I still think about your line "PG until proven otherwise"! I'm wishing so hard for you to get a BFP too Good luck!
Runnermum - phew, its good to hear from someone who is feeling the same. Congrats on you BFP!! Isn't it strange to feel like we've achieved something so big, and yet we are also just starting out BTW, when is your due date? Mine is Jan 26.
Hollye - thanks for some advice from someone who has been here and congratulations on getting past 12 weeks all AOK I was saying to my hubby "I wish we could skip forward 2 months"! I am 4 weeks and 6 days today. I have been on a preconception health kick since July 2006 so have been doing vitamins, healthy diet and more recently acupuncture, which I think really helped.

I am sooooo excited to get my BFP. I have to admit I have felt exactly like you all, but really staying focused on positive stuff. I too have been TTC since Sept 2006, I feel like wrapping myself in cotton wool and setting my alarm for 8 weeks time and emerge after that time knowing everything is A OK
I am doing everything as I have done for the last 3 weeks - only shopping at the farmers markets, drinking 3 litres of water everyday (sometimes more) and laying down to watch Dr Phil at lunchtime and eating lots of protein throughout the day.
The Fertility Clinic sent me a nice little letter and told me my due date is 28 Jan 2009 (I still can't believe it). Are you feeling a little nauseaous? I am really feeling the waves of nausea come throughout the day. BB's are certainly changing - my DH comments everytime I get in the shower.
Congratulations. It's hard to keep positive when it's taken a long time to get to where you are but it can be done. I've been TTCing on and off for more years than I care to remember but I'm on the home stretch now. I was really nervous in the early days of this pregnancy but I just kept counting milestones and felt more confident with each one. Milestones like a nice big HCG number (in the ten thousands, you'll be there before you know it), first heartbeat detected, 12 weeks, flutters, kicks, reaching 2nd tri and then the 3rd - celebrate them all. You'll be reaching them all before you know it.
Numa - absolutely wonderful, happy news!!! so happy for you chick!!
yes i can relate to that feeling "like being in love" you think about it ALL day long....
that's how I feel..... you will get there, just take each day one day at a time and 'try' to be positive as much as you can. It's scary, I agree, i'm scared but also just enjoying every day because it's such a miracle.... and chances are, all will be fine in the end! I should see you over in the January threads yeah??
ETA - just read your other post, you are due same day as me!!!! Yay!!! so you're 5wks tomorrow as well!
