Hi Everyone. Wow, I'm MIA for less than 24 hours, and I can't beleive how much there is to read. How fantastic! DH and I spent today and yesterday painting. Not a lot of fun, but it had to be done. We had a carport built a couple of months ago and have been putting off painting it ever since. Well it seemed to take longer than we expected, with only a base coat done after 2 days!! Mind you, it is only 2.30pm, so we haven't done a full day today. We ran out of paint!! So will have to do the rest next weekend. Something fun to look forward to! NOT. Tonight we're off to dave dinner with a friend. It was her birthday a couple of days ago. She's TTC next month, so that could be exciting if we are UTD together!! She has had I think 3 m/c's so I'll be sure to invite her along to our little site.

KL - what a wonderful idea, tracking everyone's CD side by side. It's interesting to see. I really hope this is the month for you. Fingers crossed. I'm sure your little eggy won't drown - Go for it!

Jen, WTH, Vanaithi, LizJessie - Have you POAS yet? Looking forward to hearing a BFP from you all.

Jen - sorry to hear you had to cut your holiday short. Hope DS is feeling better. You mae me laugh when you said you climbed up a slide to try and get reception! That's something I would do!! I don't think 10DPO is too early. I tested at 10 DPO last time and it came up BFP, but I'm sure it would depend on the brand. I would suggest using the more expensive out of the ones you have. Can't wait to hear your BFP!

Molly Cat - Seems as though it's a painting weekend. But it sounds as though your DH is doing it without your help. How did you manage to get out of that? I need to know!!

Vanaithi - I started taking my temp and charting as soon as I had my m/c. Originally cause we were going to TTC this cycle, but since then, and on dr's suggestions, we have decided to wait a month. Am still temping anyway to see if and when I O.

Easha - Hope you're feeling better soon. I can imagine it would be hard to be happy for your sister. Of course you are, but I know what you mean. It like, "that's great, and congratulations, he's beautiful, but I WANT ONE!!" That's how I felt when one of the girls from work brought in her new born last week. I unfortunately, had to stay away. A bit too soon for me. I can't beleive you waited 4 months before TTC. Good on you! I can tell you now though, that I won't be doing that. I don't have that much will power! I have already been waiting a couple of years for my job to become permanent so we could TTC, so finally I have permancy, I WANT ONE NOW!! I am still eating as though I am pregnant (quality, not quantity, that is). No chocolate, alcohol, or anything like that, lots of water and trying to exercise every day. I figure this will give my body the best possible chance of recovering quickly and making my insides healthy for my next bubba.

Mel A - Good luck with your scan tomorrow. I know there's no point in telling you to try and relax. How is that possible. I can imagine being in the same boat in a month or two, and I know that's what people will say! Something you can do though is positive thinking. It's all going to be perfect this time. It's been good that you have been pre-occupied with your sister.

To everyone else - have a wonderful week. I'll try and catch up as best as I can, but the week is usually pretty hectic. I can't imagine how much I will miss out on if I don't log on for a week - so I'll do my best to stick my nose in each day.

to you all.

Joey
