Just a quick note.... AF arrived... so that s me out for the cycle. Not really thinking to much about it.... just trying to focus on work.... no time for me to be a train wreck...

ruthie: welcome babe, sorry that you have to be here, but this is a really great, supportive place...vent as much as you need!
Angelbabies: so sorry to hear AF showed for you too sweeetheart...im really hoping that July will be a better month for us all...please dont lose hope, we will all get there...
melbourne girls: this is the first ive heard of this meet up! are there many ttc'ers going? I was thinking about it, but dont wanna be the only one there who is not pregnant or has a baby...i dont think i could handle it...
AFM: DH and i had a really lovely relaxing weekend (and yes, there was some ing !)
So, i have all my fingers and toes crossed for this month. This is the one that ive been thinking about since i had the MC ...that i just need to be pg again by the time my EDD arrives. Its on the 20th of July, so if were not successful this month then i wont be...and im not sure if ill get through it...so, if there is any floating around here at the moment, could i please have some?
Good morning, girls! Doesn't seem like there's nearly enough going around these days! Don't want to forget those That's better, ok, here goes...
Toccara--Oh, hon, sending you huge hugs! We all know how difficult this TTC journey can be--it's a long, bumpy road that has many up's and down's along the way! Harder still are the obstacles you have to get around, i.e. friends or family that are pg or giving birth, misc. pg women you come across on a daily basis, baby showers, even just seeing babies at the grocery store! There will be days where these things don't affect you at all, but often there will be days where it just stops you in your tracks and makes you feel like someone swiped your feet out from under you! Suffering through a m/c, and then picking up the pieces of your life can be the biggest challenge, and can leave you feeling physically and emotionally drained. I know those dark days of curling up in a ball in the dark, just wanting to get through another day of not being pg, my heart truly breaks for you! Please just know you'll get through this after time, and you'll heal and have the ability to deal with the up's and down's with a little more ease. We're all here for you, and we've all walked in your shoes, so you're not alone in this! Sending you the biggest, hugest hug imaginable!
joey--Thanks for sharing your story with us! It's amazing how something so traumatic, once written down and shared, begins the healing process--not only for you, but it gives others affirmation that they aren't alone, therefore allowing them to begin to heal just by reading your story! Sharing your experiences is a powerful tool for yourself and for others, and I'm grateful that you're here with us, sharing this journey with us!
Hi, Ruthie, welcome! I'm so sorry to read of your losses but happy that you've found your way to our little thread! The women here are truly amazing, and I'm sure that you'll find all the comfort and support you need for this rollercoaster ride of TTC! Praying your TWW ends with a BFP--good luck with the fertility meds!
pbstar--Thanks for the hugs, sending them right back atcha! How's your TWW treating you?
Angel babies--So, so, so sorry to hear about AF! Grrr, for you and me both! Bring on the April babies!!! We're only 2 CD's apart, so looks like we're cycle buddies--would love a shared BFP for both of us in July!
tina--Thanks for thinking of little ol' me! Glad to hear you enjoyed your romantic getaway! Crossing fingers and toes, arms, legs, and eyes that you caught that egg! Here's some just for you!
Ok, I ran out of smilies, so onto another post I go!
Krystie--Ok, missy, now I'm beginning to question your stalking skills! Hopefully DH has you hand-cuffed to the bedpost in some kinky fashion that's preventing you from your stalking That's the only plausible excuse that I'll buy! Am missing your usual humor and long posts this morning! Hope things are well with you!!
issy--I've been wondering about you, as well! I hope you're doing ok! Sending big
for our fortunate BFP'ers: JMG, Trac, Magda, nickster, Katiegirl, ll80, Anthonysmom, seenabeena, mmteacher, Canary, rainbowgirl, Emmy-Lou, plc, AJC, Mel, Karan, SaraJane, WTH, jenushka, and bettyboop--wow, this list is getting long!
AFM... Nothing much to report as it's only CD 3 for me, feeling pretty crampy and just... blah at the moment. Just wishing I could push the fast forward button to O! Feeling a little less grumpy today so far, although the kids are still sleeping, so that may change! Sending hugs and well-wishes to all!
1. You sign a 2-year contract and pay $60 more per month just to have wireless internet service for a 5 day camping trip!
2. Your significant other walks in on you checking the position of your cervix, and actually gets turned on from it!
3. You resort to becoming an adult film industry advocate in order to keep things alive during those fertile times!
4. You read, post, and then refresh to read again in case you missed a post while posting!
5. You dream of being the first to post in the new thread!
6. You feel like you are wasting urine when you don't pee on a stick!
7. You see abbreviations in everyday life and try to work out what they mean in the TTC world (eg. DVD must stand for something like "Doing the vjay vjay dance"...)
8. When you get excited about choosing a new ticker....oh the choices!!!!!
9. You actually think in emoticons and abbreviations...and occasionally call your husband DH....and he says, "what the hell did you call me????".
10. And the biggest one of all....DH actually asks if it was a light or dark "BFP" (not positive test) and whether or not you used "FMU" to test!!!! (all in abbreviations...)
11. When getting a coverline makes you so happy, you feel as though you won the lottery!
12. When you look forward to going to bed just so you can wake up in the morning and add a new temp!
13. You say you are taking a break from bb and then spend 24 hours trying to do anything but log on, including cleaning, washing, ironing, shopping, all the while saying to yourself don't do it don't do it don't do it before finally breaking down and getting your bb fix...
14. You drag yourself out of bed at 6 am every morning even though you're still tired, just to have "quiet alone time" on BB while the kids are still sleeping!
15. You get the butterflies while logging on to read posts!
16. You keep your computer on all day long so you know as soon as someone has made a post!
17. You know you are addicted to BB when you go to put the date on something and you end up writing 9 DPO!
18. You're whole day is ruined just because you can't log onto BB, and you feel like you're going to go insane without it!
19. You climb a slide and drive up the tallest hills at your camp spot trying to find a signal so your laptop will work!
20. You bring your laptop to the drive-in with you so you can check on posts in between shows!
21. You check your chart at least every half hour, because what if somehow it changed?
22. You wake up at 2:30 in the morning to use the toilet, and contemplate logging on to see if there's any good news that can't wait until morning!
23. You wake up at 3 a.m. and have to pee so bad, but you know you'll wake up at 6, so you hold it for three more hours so that you don't ruin your temp!
24. You toss and turn every morning waiting for it to be time to take your temp!
25. When DH comments that he's your family, not the girls on BB! (What does he know, anyway? lol...)
26. You sign on from your mobile phone to let off some steam!
27. You post 3 times in a row, and twice was just because you ran out of smilies!!!
28. Your dreams are filled with reading and typing posts!

: adding on
Jenushka - Thanks for the sweet compliment I checked out your pic and both you and your DS are gorgeous! Your DS is such a cutie but he also looks like he could be a terror when he wants he!
Tutmae - I would also love to have two babies from 2 separate pregnancies, but I haven't managed to convince DH on a second baby yet. If I just popped them out at the same time though...
Joey - Apparently you can ovulate as soon as your hcg drops below 5! And I've heard of cases where the hcg has still been about 25 when ovulation occured. I don't know what my hcg level was when I first ovulated because my levels weren't being monitored. Looking back on it, I kind of wish I had known though.
Thanks for the site with the free tickets! I printed one out!
And finally, I think you are extremely brave for sharing the story of your daughter and her angel-twin with us. It is a deeply saddening story and must have been very hard to share with us. Your earth-daughter must be such a strong little girl to have been born at 28weeks and only 1.1kg and to be a happy and healthy almost-10-year-old.
When you are pregnant again (which I'm sure will be soon!) will you choose not to have ultrasounds again? I don't mean to pry and you don't have to answer, I'm just curious
Toccara - You know you addicted to BB when you sign on from your mobile phone to let off some steam!
plc - Have just got your pm and am about to reply to you!
Ruthie - Hi sweetie, welcome to the thread. Although you have found yourself under sad circumstances, I promise that all the ladies in here are amazing. Everyone is compassionate and supportive, and we'll all hold your hand through your TTC journey and pray that it is a short one for you!
