plc - Glad your throat is feeling better without having to use the abs. I'm just like you, paranoid about putting anything in my body when pregnant. I was even avoiding panadol when I was pregnant with my angel "just in case" even though apparently it's safe. Better safe than sorry yeah?
And thanks for the hugs. It was just what the doctor ordered!

Sandygirl - I'm sorry for the reasons you have joined us in this thread, but I am very glad that you have found us. There is a wonderful and supportive bunch of ladies in here. I hope your decision to start or not to start on clomid is not too difficult on you and I wish you the best whatever you decide.

Jen - I'm a chronic over-thinker! I think it's why I always fall asleep after DH has been snoring away for at least half an hour, lol. I just find it hard to shut my brain down. I spoke to my ob's receptionist/nurse today, so I'll put a little note at the end of my post as to what they said...
I totally and absolutely second Angel Babies post to you!!! Every post of your exudes warmth and comfort!
PS. I'm stalking your temp chart. My guess would be that you haven't quite ovulated yet. Possibly yesterday, but I'm not convinved yet I'll keep checking over the next few days and see if I can have a better guess then

Issy - My thoughts are with you and I'm hoping very hard that this is a little sticky bubba for you!

Jodsan - What are you studying? I hope the studies for your exams are going well. Do you feel good about the one today?

Megsmum - Your cycle sounds like it's going well! A nice big mature follicle sounds very promising so I'll be thinking lots of conception thoughts for you on Friday!

WTH - I'm glad you like the ticker. I'm trying to keep my thoughts positive and happy I know you don't see your ob for a couple of weeks, but I'll send you some early good luck for now anyway.And then a bit of extra good luck for you to catch your eggie! What a good little DH you have

I think I know who the next BFP might be... But I'll just cross my fingers and bite my tongue...

AFM - I spoke to someone at the obs office today. Apparently my hcg level from last friday was 17. That's when I was 12DPO. On the 19th of last month it was 101. I asked her if it might still be 17 from my last pregnancy, but she said it was unlikely and she thought it would have been lower than 17 by now. I guess I could always take the other BT that I have the form for to see how quick it's dropping, but I think I will just hold onto it for the end of this cycle. I'm still not quite sure what to think, but I'm not sure if I could handle grieving a miscarriage at the moment, so I'm not going to continue investigating it or ask my ob about it until the next time I see him (which will hopefully be when I am pregnant next). I guess the options are that either the level was still up a bit from the last pregnancy, or that I conceived this month, the baby implanted and made some hcg and that the hormones levels weren't sufficiently high to maintain the pregnancy (therefore early miscarriage). For the sake of my sanity I'm going to think it's the first option, and if I find out that it's probably the second option at some time down the track, then I'll grieve for my second baby later when I feel more emotionally stable.

Sorry for the essay!!

I hope everyone else is doing much better and that our combined moods have picked up. We are all wonderful ladies and we deserve to be happy!!
