Thanks so much for your congrats everyone! Just seeing all your good wishes here makes it more real.
Jayne, dh is happy, but I think more nervous than me! Mind you, I did get some more comments about super-swimmers - men LOL! Haven't *officially* told anyone yet, but I did tell my mum about the m/s so she is convinced I'm pg, just haven't told her about the test yet. I will ring my Ob tomorrow to make an appt. Not sure when he'll want to see me. Last time it was quite early, before six weeks, but maybe not this time? All I know is that he will send me for an u/s @ 8 weeks. As far as I can tell, my EDD will be 01/06/07!!!!!! WOW! Don't know why but that's scary! Definitely not going to find out the sex! But we do already have our names chosen (except girl middle name). Do those answers satisfy?!!!!!!! Hope you are well today, are you *finding out*?
Lisa, how are you holding up hun? It's so stressful waiting, isn't it? I have everything possible crossed for you for Thursday. Biggest ever , can't wait to hear your news! Please come to PAML with me, I'll miss you if you don't...........
Tanya, really hope af shows up soon........maybe if we keep saying that she will! Good on you for enjoying yourself on Saturday!
Kelly, thanks for all your reassurance over the weekend. Can't wait to join you in PAML, don't think I will just yet though.
Kate, what's going on? Is thursday testing day or what? I am sending out so much baby dust for you and Lisa this week, it's not funny! Can't you smell it?!!!!!!!
Thanks Shan, I'm glad Saturday was okay for you hun. Where do you think you'll settle in Melb? I remember you saying it won't be too close to the city!!!!!! Your symptoms are sounding quite good. How late is af? When do you think you'll test? Best wishes sweets!
Thanks Megan, though some people may still class me as loopy! As far as I know, you should count your first day of *full flow* as CD1. Spotting does not count. Someone might like to correct me on that, but I'm pretty sure that's what they tell you on FF. Someone will let you know, there's a few girls on here who know more than they want to know about spotting! Do you know when you Od? I hear you on the frustration. I thought my cycle would never get back to normal after my d&c. It would appear that it didn't matter after all! I should have saved myself alot of stress LOL!
Sarah, can't wait to say hi to you in two threads! I hope you are going well and not too worried about next week.
Naomi, I don't think we've met so 'hi' and thanks for the congrats. I understand a little where you're coming from. Dh and I were together for six years before we got engaged and then got married 8 months later! Initially he just didn't want to get married, and then he did but thought I was too young. Mostly we just didn't dicuss it, and eventually it happened. I am now so glad we waited because (unfortunately!) I think he was right, I WAS very young. Once we were engaged he couldn't wait to get married, and is now so proud of his wedding ring! It really cracks me up, he's so sweet! But it's a real turnaround from a few years ago (not that we were ever unhappy, just didn't think we would get married IYKWIM?), so hang in there sweets, as long as you love each other and you are happy with Rick, it will all work out. Keep us updated
Belle, what's going on? Are those OPKs showing two lines yet? I might have to go and stalk your chart after this post LOL!
Thanks Kirsty, Michelle and Kez how are you guys going?
I want to say big big thanks to all of you lovely ladies in this thread who have kept me sane and laughing along this road! I would never wish to have a mc, but the upside is that I found all of you and now I can drag you all along to PAML with me when I'm ready to go! Please don't kick me out yet! I'm still way too nervous and scared, but at the same time, feeling quite positive about this pregnancy. So big to all of you and lots and lots of Babydust!
Belle, just checked out your chart. Try not to stress, I know it's hard. The bleeding will stop, and O day will come! I didn't O this cycle until about day 27! So although it's a long wait, it could well be worth it! for you honey.
YAY YOU SEZ!!!! How excitement!!
I'm sure you'll be POAS until that line is as dark as dark BUT it doesn't matter because any line will do!!!! I'm so happy to hear your news and also glad to hear that you are feeling positive about this preg. The power of positive thinking is not something to be dismissed.
Make sure you keep us all posted here-- would love to be joining you in the coming weeks! I have everything crossed for a STICKY one for you this time
Sez - I'm still *buzzing* from your announcement this morning - it's the best news, we certainly needed another BFP in here. I'm sure we're going to see many, many more very soon. I'm also so glad you're feeling positive about this pg - I need to take some lessons from you in that department - I think I'm just completely mad now - it's been such a rollercoaster so far and am sure it's going to continue. I think as long as I get to 10wks and all is good, I'll feel so much better!!! We'll see. I'm so glad I'll have you to share this journey with - now we just need to get everyone else over to the PAML thread too!!!
Shan - I can't wait to hear from you again soon - everything is sounding soooo positive and I definitely think you should POAS again NOW!!!!! No pressure though - he he he he. Seriously though, I'm sure you'll be announcing your BFP in the next few days and look forward to reading about it!!!!
Lisa - How are you going?? I hope af hasn't arrived and wish you all the best for 'test' day!!!! It would be great to have another BFP to celebrate before the weekend. We're all here for you!!
Tanya - I'm not sure if I should be wishing af to arrive for you or not!!! I'm sure that one little blue spermie managed to get through and all is going to work out for you - guess we'll just have to wait it out - fun!!! Hang in there sweety and keep us updated!!
Megan - I completely understand how frustrated you are - I was in exactly the same boat - had heaps of spotting but never a full day of bleeding, so had no idea what was going on. Then one day, a normal af arrived out of the blue and next thing you know I'm POAS and getting a BFP - so hang in there sweety - it's really tough but it will be over before you know it!! We're all here for you too!!
Naomi - Hello?? I don't think we've 'offically' met!! I do wish you all the best for a speedy BFP and I'm sure all will work out with your relationship - they're hard work sometimes. GL with it all!
Hope - How are you going?? I hope all is well.
Kate - Hope all is going well - aren't you getting ready to test this week too?? I hope that nasty af stays away - we all need to move on over to PAML together, otherwise we'll miss you all far too much!
Everyone else - I'm so sorry but I'm just far too tired to go back any further and check where you're all at!!! I do think about you all all the time and hope we can get some more BFP's in here soon. Take care.
As for me - I'm alright. Still VERY up and down but generally feeling good and positive. Only one more week to go before the next scan now, which is Tuesday!!! I can't wait as I should amost be 8wks by then and my ob thinks that's when I lost the last baby (although we didn't discover it until 10wks). So if I get past the 8wk scan, I'll be feeling the tinyest - sp? - bit better. Hanging out to see that little heart beating away!!! Still no m/s, which is making me REALLY nervious still. Haven't even got sore/bigger bbs, which is really annoying!!!! I just want SOMETHING to make me feel like I'm pg and all is ok!!! My SIL is really, really sick and everyone thinks I'm crazy for wanting it but they just don't understand what it's like and it's really getting to me. She's so down about it all and about being pg and all I want is that reasurance - it's completely mad. Not to worry, in a weeks time, I'll know a little more about where I'm at.
How is everyone today? I'm alright, just plodding along...lol
Yes, I should be testing tomorrow morning. I'm up to CD 36 which is a day longer than last month's cycle. I think it's going to be a BFN but who knows I could be wrong. I had a temp rise for the last two days and I just don't think it worked this month. The EWCM was all over the shop, no pains nothing...except for that one day I told you guys about with the metallic taste and a wave of nausea when I rolled over in the morning...other than that there has been nothing happening...it's crap! Oh well...
Our Anniversary went well, we went out for dinner to a French Restaurant in Balmain and I swear to god it was the BEST meal I have had in a long time. The food was divine and it was quite reasonably priced. Needless to say we BD'd live mental people that day *blushes*
I'm sorry I not going to do personal's - I'm soooo not good at them and I have brain strain I started this diet that my gf put me on (the naturopath) and I'm up to day 2 of that trying to get my head around everything...can you sense my frustration??? But so far so good.
Anyway, I hop eyou all have a fabulous day and I'll try to pop in a bit more regularly today.
Kate, a temp rise is a GOOD thing! I think there's every chance you're pg! Can't wait to see your post tomorrow, you MUST post ASAP! I'm going to be around and about today, so make sure you pop in and tell me how you're feeling. It's just so hideous waiting, isn't it?
Lilylou, I just wanted to say thanks for checking in on me yesterday, that's so lovely of you. Even if you're not going to post, you must have an updated ticker so I can check your progress! And when you get that BFP you must post it immediately! Hope you're bding like mad...........
Kelly, when I say I'm positive about this pg, I mean I have a good gut feeling about it. I'm already a serial loo paper checker! And if I feel any wetness 'down there' my heart just sinks til I can check it out.
Thanks for the excitement and stickyvibes Hope, I'm sure it won't be long for you!
Well, I hardly feel sick at all today. Since about 4pm yesterday I've felt not too bad, and I'm trying not to get too stressed about that. I know it's very early so I'm not going to get too worried about lack of symptoms. I actually thought I might DIE from m/s yesterday morning so I guess maybe it's just giving me a day off! I still have that awful empty feeling in my stomach, yuck! Tested again with Fortel and Crystal Clear this morning, line on Fortel didn't come up for over 10 mins, and line on CC was very faint again. Was a bit worried about that so tested again with CC when I woke up properly about 45 mins ago. Line is still faint but definitely there, so I'm trying to relax a bit. I have to keep reminding myself that it's very early yet, at the most 11DPO. Dh is now very excited, thinks it's *cool* LOL!
Hope you're all having a great morning, will pop back in again today to check how everyone is
