Temp drop for me this morning....so AF is on her way, breast soreness has also eased so its definately coming. Im all good though, a bit relieved to tell you the truth. So now its 2009....here I come!
Update on me @ 4pm today my mom called and said grandpa passed away. So, I just got home from being there for my grandma and my mom to support. They said the nurse that was taking care of him told my mom and grandma to hurry in that hes going he was turning pale, And sure enough he took his last breaths and he went.
Babyfever~ I am so very sorry stay strong for your mom and grandma sweetie, I know you are going to miss your grandpa be he is no longer in pain now and is in a better place ... I find it helps me if I take some quiet time and think about all the good times I had with my grandpa and not how he looked in his last days ... BIG big to you and you family and I will be for you all ...
Aww, Babyfever, so sorry about Grandpa I've heard pancreatic cancer is one of the worst types of cancer, so I'm at least grateful he's no longer in any pain, and is at peace.
issy--Sorry to hear of the temp drop... and that AF is knocking... wouldn't it be lovely if we could just lock her out? You do sound relieved, tho! So no more "accidentally" forgetting contraception anymore then? Good luck again with your schooling!
Thanks for the support ladies. I'm doing alright, Better than my mom anyways, My grandma is cleaning & cooking her way out of depression shes been feeding the nurses all night and day today & my mom and getting stuff out of the garden she has to relatives. She wont be able to have the garden to much because grandpa did most of that work not her so she doesn't know how to do all that. She lives off the garden barly eats out of box or anything. Everything she makes is homemade.
I'm waiting for this 2WW to go by fast. I hope to get lucky again and find out I'm pregnant at like 8 DPO again :-D Would be awsome. As soon as I find out I have to get blood work done. No, progesterone supps for me shes like your progrestone is so good. So, I guess there just going to do more bloods and more U/s..
Babyfever - so sorry to hear that your grandfather has passed. My thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time Look after yourself hun.
I just had a thought...I dont think I ovulated at all this month. My temp this morning was too low for post ovulation, even though AF is just around the corner. It was 36.4, which is my temp before ov. Usually just before AF is due, my temp drops to 36.6...36.4 is my temp at ovulation or just before it. I remembered that I bled right up until cd16, so im pretty sure I never ovulated this month. I dont temp everyday, but my guess is that my temps have stayed low the whole month. Stupid body....doesnt know if its Arthur or Martha, coming or going....grrrrrrr!
Fificlaire- hope the body sorts itself out.... let us know what the results are. Hope they are positive for you
Jen - yaya for the coverline... looks nice and early as well compared to your other charts. More time for the bub to stick good and proper . FF only gave me a good for conception chances... although I dont believe it. Although we didn't the do on Ov day we did it morn and night the day before so hopefully should be right.
Smilanatu - yay for AF going
Rachel - you had me in hysterics I had the gall bladder removed and the belly button one is the worst - where are you going on Hols. The biscuit was great too
Mollycat - dont give up hope yet - you are still way above the coverline..... we need another BFP
Issy - you too... dont give up yet, it ain't until the fat lady sings !!!!
Babyfever - so sorry to hear about your Grandpa.. look up at the sky and find the brightest star.. that is him looking over you. Hope he blesses you with a BFP soon.
AFM - still plodding through the days.... my temps are so different from last month I dont know what to think.... I also am not going to talk about symptoms (although I do have sore BB's ) so nothing to report really.
BFP, BFP, BFP, BFP. BFP (if we cheer loud enough they might come)
MistyFying - Thanks for always looking over us, and for making nice new threads for us
Toccara - The extra hugs were lovely! You can never have to many cuddles
Babyfever - I'm really sorry to hear about your grandpa. Take good care of your mum and grandma, they are going to need you through this tough time.
Jen nuff - I see your stern words to your temp worked and it's jumped up again! WHOO HOO!
Angel nuff - Fingers crossed for friday!!! Apparently the restaurant I was talking about is owned or run by a friend of my sister in laws, so I'll get the name and exact address.
Issy - If your temp is still down, is there any chance that you are still to ovulate considering that you bled for so long? Maybe you should bd every couple of days just in case. Wouldn't want to miss the boat I'm hoping really hard that your body is "martha", because if it's "arthur" then I'm pretty sure I know what the problem is
Easha - I've had my gall bladder removed too. It too 3 doctors and 2 1/2 years for them to finally work out what was wrong with me!!! Turns out I had a a single whopping stone in my gall bladder that was completely blocking my cystic duct. No wonder it hurt so bad! Unfortunately pain killers make me extremely ill, so I had none after surgery. Ouchies. Actually, as long as I didn't move of sit up it was ok. The worst thing was the referred pain I felt in my shoulder from the CO2 left in my abdomen irritating my diaphram. It hurt so bad that I couldn't sit up for about 4 days because everytime I raised up the gas would go up to my diaphram again! Grrrrr.
Rachel - No fair! I want to go to an island!!!
AFM - I had my acupuncture appointment today and it was absolutely fantastic!!! My acupuncturist has moved to a new location which is easier to get to, and is now working with another lady that does massage and chinese "stuff" that I don't totally understand.
Anyway, my acupuncturist chatted to me about how things are going, and then did my acupuncture. Then the other lady came in and did some stuff with this thing that looked like a fat black crayon that was red hot on one end. She would put the end against some of the acupuncture needles to heat them up. She also did something to the underneath of my feet too, but I couldn't see what. I asked her what it was, and she said it was mugwort (I think...). She started explaining more about it, but I forget because I got sidetracked thinking that it sounded like something from Harry Potter...
Then she did a nice back massage. And then she even did some stone massage. It was sooooo super nice and relaxing!
During that time my acupuncturist made up all my herbs. I have so start taking them the day after tomorrow (CD4) and then on CD10 I mix some more herbs in with the ones I start with. Then on CD14 I switch to a different group of herbs. I just know they will all taste disgusting, but I don't care if it gets me my little earth baby!
Babyfever--Glad to hear you're taking care of your mom and G-ma during this tough time! Probably a good thing that G-ma is distracted by cooking and cleaning, as it will help her deal with her grief. It's never an easy time for the ones left behind You and your family are in my thoughts and I pray that G-pa blesses you with a BFP at the end of your TWW!
issy--Maybe your cycle is just screwy after bleeding for so long--could it just be a really long cycle, and maybe you just haven't O yet? Maybe since AF lasted so long last time, it's pushing back your O and expected AF date... either way, it's not over yet--if you check thru the chart gallery, there's plenty of BFP's at the end of a extra long cycle, so my for you!
chappas--Hope you enjoy your hols!! Be safe and have fun!
Easha--I've been noticing changes in my temps each month, as well! You would think they would be fairly similar, but seems like each month my temps are just completely different! And you're right, it does look like I O'ed much earlier this month--maybe that's been my problem, maybe I've been O'ing earlier than I thought, so wasn't getting the BD timing right! Who knows... Yeah, I'm with you, I think you've got a much better chance than "good" for conception this month with day before and day after O! :goodluck2: I've got everything crossed for you!
Rachel--Hope you enjoy your trip to Lanzarote! Be safe and have a blast! Congrats, btw, on working at stables on Sunday!
Krystie--Yep, told my temps and FF that I wasn't taking any cr@p this month--they better behave or suffer my wrath! *evil*
So happy for you that you were able to get in for an early appt with A! The massage part of it sounds lovely! The pins and the herbs leave little to be desired! Although if your earth baby is the outcome, then I guess there's plenty to be desired--and totally worth it! I commend you for your dedication!
Dinner sounds great on Fri--I'm just waiting for my ticket in the mail so I can join you girls! Didn't you know, you aren't allowed to only meet 1 Nuff at a time? Don't forget your camera--I wanna see a pic of my partner's in crime together in the gallery!!
smi-- girl!! :goodluck2: for this cycle! I guess we'll be starting the May babies trend, eh? My EDD will be 5/1/09 if I get a BFP this month! Bring on the May babies! :crossfinges:
Angel--my other half of Nuff--Hope you're enjoying the snow! Be safe and have a great time! Missed chatting with you this am!
tutmae--Hey, hey, lady in red! You aren't forgetting about us already, are you? Seems like it's been a long time since we've heard from you... hope everything's ok! Bucket loads of showering over you! Roll around in it, take a bath in it, absorb it! Take care, hon!
mollycat--I'm that I'll see a nice, high temp from you this am!!
AFM... just plodding along, not much to report... still early on in my so, obviously, so signs or symptoms yet! Really hoping to end my summer with a
KrystieLove- Sound's like you enjoyed going to the Acupuncturist. I hope it works for you Does she having you come in every week? My Acupuncturist wants me in 1X a week sometimes 2X a week.
Issi- Oh hunny I'm sorry AF is just around the corner, I really hope with this new cycle starting you get your bfp. I'm sorry this cycle is a bust.
