[jen805]

plc-- Crossing fingers for you for your May 20 u/s--you're going to get the best b-day gift ever, just a couple days late! for you to just relax and enjoy. Remember it's still early, so don't worry about not "feeling" or seeing anything just yet, it'll happen!


jenushka-- Good luck at your ob appt. today! this brings you closure even though I know it will be tough to rehash it all! Take extra special care of yourself today, and remember that we're all here for you! Thanks for the kind words about AF--although of course I'm disappointed, it makes no sense to have a bad attitude about it, it won't change things! So I'll just hang out here with all my new friends relishing in other's BFP's until I get one of my very own! We're all in this together!


issy--Hoping and praying you come out of the 2ww with a BFP!

AFM...DF works at a water treatment facility and found some baby ducklings at his shop yesterday. Brought them home for safe keeping last night since there are lots of cats that hang out around there. Woke up first thing to 8 LOUD peeping chicks. One went awol this am, but was able to chase it down! DS keeps asking if we can keep them! There's just no way--I have enough on my plate at the moment without adding 8 baby ducklings to it, although they are very cute--they're just too loud!

Jen805 that is so funny about the baby ducklings. Very cute to have around now, but not when they grow into ducks!

Thanks for all your replys it's sad that u are all here on this journey, but I am glad to know that i am not alone in my moodiness.

Good Morning to everyone -
Jen - you sound really positive, sorry you didn't get your BFP, but "glad" that AF finally turned up, now you can sit back and work on this month - and have fun with those baby ducks (sounds noisy but really cute - at least until they grow)

PLC - all the best on the 20th (i know we'll say that over and over) but this one just has to stick (just so you can get really really fat and have a great excuse).

AFM - we'll i'm still waiting for AF, temp dropped 5 days ago and usually AF appears on the 2nd day, don't know what's happening there my cycle is usually so predictable, and yes if done a test and it's BFN, i'll give it to monday and then ring gyno and ask him. I'm okay with it just annoyed that i don't know what is happening

To everyone else lots of i'm not going to mention names as there are too many and i don't want to leave anyone out.

Got to go and start work now, first two children just arrived. Have a good day

Hello to all of you wonderful ladies!
Reading this forum is like getting a big hug. I always feel cheered up and suported when I come here, so thank you all.

Vanaithi - Welcome! I am sorry to hear of your loss. You were not being naive and clueless when you fist became pregnant. I can think of a handful of my friends who became pregnant and announced it really early to those around them- and of course, went on to have happy and healthy pregnancies. It is perfectly natural to assume that all will be well, which I am sure is how it will be with your next BFP.:goodluck2: As for the poo question- sorry, but I cant say that I shared the same experience, you did make me giggle, though!

Tina- Hiya Cycle buddy! I wondered where you had been. Glad to hear that you are feeling so positive about this month- let's keep our fingers and toes crossed

Jen- Ha, ha at your duckies!! It sounds like you are going to have some pet ducks to add to your menagerie (sp?)

Jenushka- big re: your results. I hope that the counsellor can help to answer some of your questions. GL for Weds.

Mollycat: Sorry about AF, GL for this cycle.

AJC: Hope that you caught the eggy!

mmteacher: Mothers day is in March in England, I thought you'd got you dates wrong for a minute there! I hope that you get the Mother's and b'day pressies that you want this year.

plc- Hi Hun, how are you doin'? Really, try not to worry about no symptoms 'cos A) You tested really early, didn't you?- so your hormone levels might not be high enough for symptoms yet. B)Plenty of ladies dont get symptoms early (e.g Nickster, I hope she doesnt mind me using her name here) and C) Symptoms are not really a very good indicator of a sticky bub anyway. Oh, and D) We all KNOW that this one is going to be sticky! There, I hope that you will stop worrying now and go and put your feet up!


AFM- I have realised that AF is due on the anniversary of my grandad's death. Maybe he will send me a BFP? Well, if he doesnt, I wont hold it against him! We are off camping this weekend and the weather doesnt look very dependable. I really hope that it doesnt rain!

Bye for now! to all.

hi everyone,

wow, i havent been around for a few days, and there is sooo much to catch up on! Dont think i can keep up with all the personals, but ill try for some!!! Sorry in advance for those i miss...

Jen - the baby ducklins sound cute, might be a nice distraction?
that so sweet that you have all our names, it really makes each of us feel important. thank you

PLC -fingers crossed for you appointment...

mollycat: its not over till AF arrives...

issy:hmmm, sounding positive! fingers crossed!

jenushka: hope all goes well with your appt and you get the answers you are after.

Canary: sycle buddy, its ok to let your hair down now and then, this journey can be so stressful. please dont feel guilty.

AFM, well, im still 2wwing. For no apparent reason, i am feeling extra positive this month. AF is due wednesday or thursday next week. So, im going to try to get to as close to there as possible b4 i test. Im feeling a bit nauseous, but im not sure if im not just making up symptoms!!! well see...

thinking of each of you, and praying for us all...better add some

see ya!

[mmteacher]

Jen~How funny that you have baby ducklings and I helped get baby quail back to their nest area today (we have them at the school) so cute!!! Hope you are enjoying them-I LOVE animals!!!

Tina K~Hope your vibes are right and you get a BFP next week! I'll be thinking of you!

AFM~Just realized if I get a BFP this month, it will be on Mother's Day (when AF is due) and I would be due within one or two days of my birthday in January!!! I really hope this is my month-it would be awesome!! Some light pains in side that I O'd on but not too much else yet!

Gotta run an errand for DH-sorry no more persies but hello to everyone!!!

Anyone want any baby ducks? I'm ready for them to be out of my living room! They're so cute, but the pond liner that they're in is taking up half my living room! And I have boxes and pillows around all the edges so the little buggers can't get out anymore! Took a couple to DS's first grade class, and they were a huge hit. Even after class we were bombarded and surrounded by kids (and even moms) all wanting to pet the ducklings, it was pretty cute. If only they weren't so loud!


mmteacher--We also have white doves that we breed, and recently we got some homing pigeons, which we traded for some of our doves. They're still in training, we haven't flown them from anywhere except our backyard. But the idea is that we could drive with it to, say, Arizona, release it, and it would find it's way home. I'm not really sure if that's how it would turn out, but that's DF's theory! your Mother's Day (and the following 9 months) are AF free! That would make for an awesome M's day--but an even better b-day present!!! :goodluck2:


tina k--The ducklings are definitely a distraction! Some distractions are welcome, but when paying bills, the last thing I need is the distraction! I'm a distracted person as it is, so it's really not very helpful! It's great that you feel so positive this month, that could be a great sign! your TWW ends with a BFP!


mollycat--Have you done more than one test? Maybe you just tested a little early? My fingers are crossed for you that you'll get a BFP! AF seems to be very unpredictable this month, that witch!


jenushka--How'd your appt go? You're in my thoughts....

Hope everyone's having a great day! Tomorrow's Friday! (Well, for some of us!) For all you other lucky dogs, have a great Saturday!

[mollycat]

I'm definately out - AF just arrived - the horrible witch. At least now it's not too late and thrown me totally out of whack. On to May ... that this is our Month.
mmteacher .... hope your theory works out, what a great couple of days (and lots in between) they would be
tina k - thanks for the wishes.....hope your TWW comes out really positive we need more BFP's around here.
Jen - couldn't you palm off some of those ducklings to the other parents. AF needs to wake up to herself and go away for at least twelve months.

I got great day 21 levels last month, so hopefully this month will work with the tamoxifen. I've got lots of distractions coming up, so maybe that will work too. The builders turned up yesterday and marked out where the piers are going, came back this morning and cut off a piece of wall so they can match the wood, the windows were ordered yesterday and the builders will be back early next week to start building our extension. I am so looking forward to having more space it will be terrific.

[jen805]

mollycat--Sorry about AF--at least you got an answer one way or the other, even if it wasn't the answer that you wanted! Looks like we're cycle buddies now, though! So is it your house that you're extending? That's going to be a definite distraction, it works to your benefit! Hope Flo goes easy on you!

[AJC]

mollycat - sorry about af. GL for this cycle.

jen - the ducklings sound soooo cute. I probably wouldn't say that though if they were in my living room. I hope you find good homes for them.

mmteacher - GL for a Mother's Day BFP!!!

Everyone in the tww - hope the time is flying by and hope you're all feeling really pg and you all get BFP's! ! !

seenabeena - nice to hear from you again but hope you get your BFP very soon! ! !

afm - well I think (hope) today is O day, held off bd for as long as possible (not too long didn't want to risk missing the egg). This month has gone really quickly until now... I guess the next 2 weeks will take forever though. I am feeling good though, have been far more relaxed this month than last.

Will catch up with you all over the weekend....... enjoy ! ! !

[mollycat]

Jen - yes, it's our house we're extending - it's a 2bedroom weatherboard, federation style (australian), we're changing the back bit, used to be a verandah before we bought it, but has been closed in years ago, made into bathroom, sunroom and laundry, we're taking it out another 3 metres, having the existing back wall knocked out, building a new laundry with shower and toilet in (for all the kids), bringing the kitchen out to where the laundry is now with a family room attached, the old kitchen will become our bedroom and the old bathroom will become our en-suite.
It's funny - people often say that when women get together a fair bit their cycles often change and become the same (I know that happens with a few of my friends) obviously it happens in cyber space too.
AF is never the answer we want but i'm sure when it's our turn with get the right answer (hopefully together)
