    Thanks Babyfever! Trying to stay positive without getting my hopes up, IYKWIM! Would rather not think about it as much as possible so I don't get let down! I'm only 5DPO, so probably way too early to feel any symptoms--I think the earliest BFP's come at 8DPO, and there's no way I'm testing that early! Will just see how things progress... if they progress!

    Jen for you it's implantation. Better get that force field back out and use it around yourself. It sort of works (just needs a little modification) A BFP would have been wonderful - could have had a really lovely birthday present - now I just need to work on one for DS2. Chocolate donations are always accepted when AF turns up. Couldn't care less at any other time, but find I really need the chocolate then.

    Rachel - have a great holiday

    WTH - just wanted to give you a for your cat. It always feels like the world gangs up on you at times. Remember we are always here for you. You are an amazing woman strong woman.

    Jen- Well, Not really being to early for symptoms I got my M/S at 5DPO which was the same day my IB dip was. And my first bfp at 7DPO. I just knew I was pregnant due to the timing and the fact that I had that dip I counted 2-3 days past my drop and was like It should be positive if it was true sure enough it was positive. I understand how you don't want to get discuraged nothing wrong with trying not to get to high up in hopes. But, you are def in my prayers for a BFP soon hun. Hopefully here in a few days. I almost wish I wasn't a POAS aholic because of the fact my pregnancy ended last month but, I already went pee stick nuts this month. I'll pee on enough sticks for the both of us JEN!! :-))... 2 a day till 14 DPO..

    As for me I just realized that I had sex 3 days before O starting on Sunday (risk for a girl) And the other day was Monday And Tuesday (more likly for a boy) I made DH do it everyday so there would be fresh Boy swimmers). My chiness calender says GIRL which was only right for my first child, I'm sooo hoping that we get lucky like my friend did and did the BD everyday and she got lucky with boy lol...

    Smilanatu: my kids go back to school in three and a half weeks, and the youngest is going into kindergarten, so I'm not sure what I'll be doing with my free mornings! Probably housework.

    RachelSwirl: Hope you have a good time on your trip

    Babyfever2007: I'm sorry about your grandfather. I'll be keeping your family in my prayers.

    larz: Don't know the answer to your hcg question, but ask your doc. I'll be keeping you in my prayers, too.

    tutmae: keeping fingers crossed!

    AFM: I'm tww'ing. *sigh*

    Aww, was looking at Chinese gender prediction calendars at one of them was the same one I accidentally found before that welcomed me back and told me that today I'm 37 wks. with 23 days to go...

    Anyhow... 3 of them said girl, and 1 said boy, but right underneath it said 50/50 chance. I like the first 3! But I'll be happy and feel blessed no matter what! Crampiness went away earlier, but seems to be back on the left, feeling really bloated, too. With 23 days to go until my EDD, I'm begging for some baby dust donations!!! Please!!

    Hey Jen.

    It is an icky feeling approaching the EDD. Are you thinking of doing anything on the day?

    After our first loss, DH and I did a little private memorial at home (lit a candle, held hands and said a silent prayer). It helped me. I actually felt relieved when the date had past because it had been looming over me like a heavy weight for months.

    So what is your crampiness? Passing of O??

    A quick post for you all (as Im so addicted) FROM THE AIRPORT... Luggage was overweight. Of course, Pauls was spot on MEN!!! GRRR
    They looked away and let me off! PHEW thank god for not having to pay for anymore luggage allowance, that would have really annoyed me.
    So its not two hours till we fly, we had a horrible journey getting to the airport, the whole moterway had been shut off and there was diversions everywhere. Although I spent most of the journey with a stupid metalic taste in my mouth... NO IM NOT PARANOID lol!
    Sod it though, I plan to get very drunk on the holiday. I am now praying for all your BFPs!!!

    See you in two weeks!!! I AM OFFICIALLY NOW EXCITED, having got the 3 hour airport transit thing DONE! Woohoo

    Speak soon folks!!
