I have returned from my holiday! i had such a wonderful time, its just a shame we had to come home! Saw some wonderful sites, went up a few mountains and saw some snow!
This forum has been mega busy! i had almost a whole thread to caatch up on!
It has just taken me about half hour to get through it all, and i still cant remember it all to do persies!
Will try and do some later on, but at the moment i have a mountain of washing to get through!!!! Oh joy
Will log back on later and try and catch up properly!
Good morning lovely ladies! I'm SO sorry I never got back on to do persies.... DF has been working on the computer, and I wasn't able to use it! They have smilies for being angry and throwing the computer.... they should have one where it's angry and throwing DF around for stealing the computer!! So I have about 4 pages of persies to read through, and this time I promise I'll be back! This is my quiet time when the whole house is asleep but me, so nothing will interfere this time! Be back soon! for the new thread!
hannah--This TWW is by far the quickest one ever! I never thought I would hear myself say that, but I'm certainly grateful! Thanks for asking! How's things with you?
21--Sorry to hear your DP may have to go to the Middle East for an army term. How long would he have to be gone? I say continue on with the TTC and just see what happens. You've got lots of time for a BFP between now and then! Hope the B6 helps, it did for me!
larz--Good luck with tomorrow's scan! Say hi to little Sofia or Sebastian for me! Enjoy your niece and her 1st B-day, sounds like lots of fun!
megsmum--Cycle bud! Will be thinking of you today and for a successful IUI! Go Fred! So happy you'll be joining me in the TWW!
WTH--Aww, hon.... sorry your results aren't what you thought they'd be! Hope your BT goes well and your u/s on Monday shows some nice, healthy follies! Will continue to for you!
mollycat--You had me with your You, megsmum, and Angel had me ROFLMAO
And Angel, you had me with
".....below is a rush of blue swimmers pushing past each other..... a couple of *cough* light blue swimmers are winking at each other saying... "ohhh what the heck" and skip off together.... a few pink swimmers pushing past the blue swimmers... and the rest of the pink ones sittin down below having a coffee and a chat saying... "i aint going there girlfriend""
If I didn't know who wrote this, I would've known it was you! Even though everything's spelled correctly! It's so you!
Thanks you three, for making it more like it used to be around here!

: big mistake!
jenushka--Cute ticker! FF says if I conceive this month my EDD will be June 26--less than a week after yours! I'm and keeping everything crossed! Great hcg numbers! So happy for you!
Milla--I personally didn't see a therapist. I found all strength and support I needed from the girls I met here. I found it to be such a release for me to hear the stories of other's who had been through the same thing. There were times where I felt like my story paled in comparison to another's... although the girls here helped me to realize that a loss is a loss, no matter what stage it's at. I found it to be cathartic to try to walk other's through their dark days of grief.... to cry with them, and laugh with them.... it was a very healing experience. I became very dependent on this site and the friends I've made here--for me, they were my therapist, and continue to be! Only you know what will work best for you.... if you feel you need to talk to someone, then I say go for it. It certainly couldn't hurt anything. Wish you the best of luck whatever you decide. Remember that we're all here for you to help you through whatever you need!
joey--Hey stranger! How you doin'? OMG, over 7 weeks already! Can't believe how time flies!
Easha--Sorry you missed chat.... plc and Krystie missed it, too, so you weren't the only one! Maybe next time! Hope today's temp is another high one! Remember, it only takes once! Hugs and for you!
Mannie--Thanks! Hope your cycle works itself out soon, I know how frustrating it can be.... you've been a trooper!
tutmae--Me? Create a culinary extravaganza? That's a My DF would get a good laugh out of that one! I WISH,(and I'm sure he does as well), that I could say I didn't come back due to creating fabulous feast, unfortunately it was just DF stealing my computer! *picture a jen smiley smacking around Mr. jen smiley*
Glad to hear you're finding your zen and being calm. ish. kinda.... (too cute! lol...) Hope the m/s gets better and stays away for good! Hugs and bellyrubs for you!
plc--How could we ever mind you popping in? You're always welcome here, you know that! Sorry you missed chat on Friday, you were missed! *kiss*
Welcome Rach--What you're feeling and experiencing isn't selfish or self-centered at all! It's a very normal reaction for someone that's experienced a loss such as the ones we've all suffered here. We've all felt that way, and there's days where I still feel that way! Please don't ever apologize for venting to us--we're all here to listen, cry with you, laugh with you, and support you!
mollycat--You didn't do anything wrong... you simply avoided a confrontation that would've been sure to hurt you, so your mind went into self preservation mode. There's nothing wrong with that, you did what you had to do to stay in control of your emotions--I think it was a very mature way to handle a stressful situation!
Going to try to forget all about 6th grade fundraising for the weekend! I was able to get another mom to help me out with making some phone calls and scheduling volunteers for the various booths that will be going during the carnival. Unfortunately, this whole next week is parent/teacher conferences, so it's minimum days all week long! That cuts my days down by 2 hours, so I won't get nearly as much done.... kinda stressful with the carnival being next weekend! But seriously, trying not to stress out about it too much this weekend--my brain is fried!
Krystie--I'm you kick this m/s bug soon! My thoughts are always with you and little Chyan! and
Angel& AJC--Thanks for the chat on Friday and for making me laugh! I really needed it!
Angel, words can't express how happy it makes me to see your posts again! Love you Nuff! *kiss*
Toccara--Haven't heard from you in a while.... hope you're well, and enjoying some time with your DH this weekend! Big for you!
Thank you tutmae, hannah, mannie, angel, tam83, ajc, megsmum for your words of wisdom. a big to all of you lovely ladies.
rach78 - I just read your post and I had to look twice to check if it wasn't mine. I feel the exact same way - all I want to be is pregnant again. I can't bear the thought of other women being pregnant. In fact, two of my best friends are pregnant right now, and we were all the same date. I can't face them as I would have before - it is such a difficult thing to see them, or just think about them. You know, when I have one of these "anger-frustration attacks" , I think about something I heard in a meditation CD: the "qi" (life energy in Chinese Medicine) can't flow if there is anger and frustration, the body has to be open to allow a new life to enter. So I try to take some deep breaths and focus on keeping my body open, getting the negative thoughts out. It doesn't always work, but at least I am trying to do something positive towards a . I also find it soothing to take care of my nutrition by reading a lot about ways to enhance fertility by diet, and applying these principles. For example, I drink wheatgrass juice, and preparing this juice in the morning is like a ritual. It gives me a feeling that I am not helpless, that I can do something to get pregnant sooner. That way you get at least part of the negative thoughts out.
By the way, I asked the same question than you re counseling - I got a lot of answers from all the lovely ladies in the September thread. check it out. I've decided to give it a try, I have an appointment early November. Will keep you all posted.
and saw some snow!
for the new thread!
