jenushka--I also saw your first post before it was deleted... you're still first as far as I'm concerned! I never realized you couldn't comment on being first either, so good to know! Thanks for blessing the new thread! And YAY for the reassurance of m/s!



mollycat--I hope you have more than one bathroom! I have this mental image of you straddling the toilet with your feet on the walls, praying you don't either fall into the toilet, or into the black hole of what used to be the bathroom floor! Obviously you aren't doing anything fun this weekend... don't work yourself too hard--or you'll be hearing me saying, "see, I told you so!" *wink wink*



Hannah--Sometimes you have to have a meltdown to hit rock bottom in order to make your way back up to the top again. There's only one way to go once you've hit the bottom! I'm so proud of you for holding that little newborn.... you're amazingly strong--I hope you realize that! *hugs* What a trooper you are--ready to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get on with things! Good for you!

Really interesting about the high risk scores/year of the rat theory.... I truly believe that astrology plays a major role in interpreting what's going on in our lives. I don't necessarily mean that everyday when I read my horoscope I can see how it relates to my life, because most of the time it seems to not even apply to me! But I definitely believe that the position of the planets/sun/moon affects the way a person behaves.... and history has shown how accurate the Mayan's were in their prediction of world events through reading the stars. Maybe you're right, maybe for you astrologically the Year of the Rat isn't your year--saying lots of for your success during the Year of the Ox!



WTH--You always live up to your name! When all else fails, there's ALWAYS hope!



tut--Here's what it says about the date given being during AF: "Interestingly, it doesn't matter with which stage in the woman's hormonal cycle this Lunar Conception moment will coincide. If it will coincide with the ovulation, very well, the probability of conception will be very high. But even if this moment will coincide with the menstruation, fertility at such time will be very high too." They've pretty much done away with the risk factor, because some that were given a high risk score turned out fine, while others with a low score had children with anomalies.... they now say it has to do with "the birth cosmogram of the mother and the conception cosmogram of the child both show a pattern of unfavorable influences, there is an indication of poor viability of the offspring. If the conception cosmogram for the child is not well aspected, but the mother's own cosmogram is favorable, the negative influences are overcome to a certain degree."

So who knows.... unfortunately I didn't get to test his theory this month as expected.... well, kind of... we DTD on the right day, but it's supposed to be 24 hours prior to date given, so it was before the 24 hour timeframe. November tells me I'll have a boy, December a girl....



Angel--Glad to hear the meds are doing their job! Yay for being able to sleep in a horizontal position! Continue getting better! *hugs* *kiss*



Krystie--Woo hoo, look at that sexy belly! *whistling* Whenever I see the word "roids" my fist thought is hemorrhoids, not steroids!



Mannie--Congratulations! Saying loads of for a healthy, happy, sticky bean! Sending lots of your way!
