Sorry just read over that last part and what a grumble-bum I'm becoming. I'm fine until I have to think about Christmas stuff.
On a more positive note. I did catch up with a good friend today. Its funny, but she's the one person (apart from you ladies) I can talk to about everything I'm going through, but she has no interest in having kids herself. She is so anti-kids that its kind of a joke between us and yet she is so understanding. I guess thats what comes of being friends for over 20 years.
Hannah - you are not a grumble bum and you have every right to feel how you do. I was just thinking the other day how our little angel would be almost 6 months old at Christmas and we should be having Christmas morning as a little family. Christmas is a hard time so you do and feel whatever you have to to get through it.
Issy - I would take more notice of the tests than your body. If I have learnt anything in the last 12 months it's that your body can play tricks on you! If the lines on your test keep getting darker I would say it is a very good sign your HCG levels are rising!
Polly & Theresa - I am so sorry for your losses. I am sad you have had to come to this thread but I hope we are all able to help you begin the TTC journey again. I that 2009 is the year for both of you.
Hi to everyone (sorry will come back and do persies later, have to get ready for work).
AFM - I am 10DPO and my boobs are still so sore (having trouble sleeping). My temp is still up as well. I really hope my body is not playing tricks on me as I have almost convinced myself I am pregnant. Sounds silly by I 'feel pregnant'. I feel bad as I am giving DH hope when I probably shouldn't. Time will tell I guess. Only 4 days to go........Does anyone know if a progesterone level of 37 (7dpo) is a good sign? The nurse said is was very positive.
As you can see, I am driving myself (and DH) crazy while we are waiting!
Polly and Theresa - I am so very sorry for your losses and for the circumstances that have brought you here, but glad that have chosen this forum as a place to share your ttc journey's. This an incredibly safe place to share you feelings, fears and joys and the women in here are wonderfully supportive and will laugh, cry and be your shoulder to lean on when you need it most. I that 2009 brings you your much deserved bundles of joy.
Mel - Im sorry I cant help you with your progesterone question, im not sure what it is supposed to be at this time of your cycle. But the symptoms def sound promising, I pray this is your month hun.
Jen - I hope you are feeling better hun, your poor thing
Hannah - You are not a grumpy bum, we are all entitled to our down days, its normal and very justified. I hope you are feeling a little better though
AJC - Im so glad to hear everything is ok, rest up darlin and look after yourself. Not long to go now....how exciting!
Indy and tempus - my thoughts and prayers are with you...wishing you both GL with your blood test results.
Big hello and hugs to everyone else...I hope you are all doing ok.
AFM - I had a bit of a panic attack yesterday and I have to admit, Im not completely over it. My bbs did not feel as sore yesterday morning...which really worried me, but as time went on throughout the day they got progressively more sore until they were as sore as they were last week. I have very dull period like pain, which is kind of on and off which has me praying like a crazy women everytime I feel it, but I am hoping this is normal. Other than that, I have started to feel sick. Last night I was starving after just having 4 pieces of toast...and I started to feel very sick, and again this morning I felt very queasy. Im hoping this is a good sign. So now I have to wait until fri for another blood test, which I dont think I can wait for, I think I may request to have it earlier than that, just to put my mind at ease. Also, I went to put a ticker up, but Im not completely sure how far along I am. I dont exactly know when my last period was. I had 2 last month so I dont know which one to go by and I dont know their exact dates either. The one month in 3 years that I forget to track my cycle, I fall pg and have no idea how many weeks I am! Go figure! I will have to have a dating scan, so until then...no ticker! Just as well I suppose as I feel like im jinxing myself by putting it up too early.
hi everyone...just saying hi...am having a bit of a break from posting too much at the moment...just need to try and not obsess too much about TTC!
but am thinking of you all xx
Polly and theresa. I am so sorry for your losses and felt very sad for you both when I read your stories. Life can be very unfair sometimes I think! I hope you both get to hold beautiful healthy babies in your arms very soon.
Tempus - that things are all okay for you

AFM: Been very slack with posting - life has got very busy as now I am engaged we have decided we are definately getting married in april so I have started wedding planning! Have already secured a venue for reception and ceremony and am getting married on easter sunday! With regard TTC - had second blood test today and just waiting to hear if I need another one or if they know yet what day they will do next frostie transfer - I think it will be early next week - fingers crossed! and praying I get a BFP for christmas. It has been nice to be focussing on something else for a while (engagement, wedding) and this is probably least stressed/obsessed I have been about TTC for over a year! Mind you I probably will start stressing again in the TTW.
Thank you to everyone who has welcomed me to this forum. I am waiting for this week to end so I can do a pregnancy test - Saturday is the day!!!! Here's hoping and
Issy - It certainly all looks good. The line is definitely getting darker. I know what you mean about having to wait to have a blood test - I am going crazy waiting! You probably fell pg because you weren't worrying so much about it and weren't tracking your cycle, it often happens when we least expect it - lol! Let us all know how many weeks you are when you find out.
Hannah - How you feeling today hun?
Theresa - Best of luck for Saturday!
babymiracles - Yah for wedding plans keeping you busy! I absolutely loved planning our wedding and would do it all again in a heartbeat (it was the best day) but DH says we can't afford it - lol!
Possums - completely understand about trying not to obsess - I have tried so many times and have now given up. I just can't forget about it. I know they say it often happens when you relax and forget about 'trying' but it's just not me. I hope it works for you!
Mannie & Toccara - Hope you are both taking the time to heal. Thinking of you both.
Megsmum - How are your feeling? I hope some of the anxiety has subsided.
Jen - Hope you are starting to feel better - rest, girl, rest!

AFM - I am really freaking myself out now. My bbs are still sore but I have had a bit of back pain and it is getting worse. I am so scared that AF is on it's way. I know there is nothing I can do but I just really thought this month was our month. I am so careful each month not to get our hopes up but I have had such strong symptoms and I 'feel' pg. It scares me to say that but that's how I have felt. I have had back pain on and off for the last few days which usually when I get AF I get a hour or two of back pain and then she arrives. I know lower back pain can also be a symptom of pg and I pray that is it but I am starting to lose hope.
I have to wait until Thursday to see the FS. AF is due on Friday (if she doesn't arrive before then) so I have a few more days to wait. I am not sure whether to do another hpt as it is probably still too early if I am. I can't believe I am day 34 into my cycle - the only time I have been this late was when I was pregnant!
Decided if this isn't our month we are stopping charting and will just BD when we want. Hoping that helps me to relax so it happens 'naturally'. It will happen when it's meant to. I say that now but I bet it doesn't last!
Just realised how self absorbed and negative I am sounding. Can I join you in being a Grumble Bum Hannah ?
Sorry just not feeling all that positive at the moment not to mention driving myself insane with every little ache and pain
