    Hey lovely ladies! Well nothing to report on this end except that I'm LOSING patience so fast and am confused as to what's going on with me. I've had bad cramps on and off for almost 4 days, have the tears and tantrums happening and yet no period. As of yesterday morning a BFN yet again. Am I over thinking and can that really make your periods late? It's driving me batty and it's only my FIRST month! haha

    Powelly- Sure hun, it is only the first month but this has been a long time coming and a lot has happened since your first bub. You are 10 times wiser to life now babe. I think we all lose a little bit of the patience, innocence and forgiveness we used to have. I can't speak for you babe, but for me this is the case. I am doing ok at this point but I am supposed to really, there is nothing i can do on CD23. When you are late and waiting...a whole new story really. Especially feeling all sorts of symptoms. Hang in there sweety and I hope you get good results soon.
    It may or really may not help but a cousin of mine didn't get a BFP result until a week after she was due. Sometimes we ov late and that can change it all around as you know. Do you know when you Ov? What DPO are you atm. Thinking of you. xoxox

    AFM- Just went to a really yummy bakery for breaky/lunch and ate ourselves silly on sourdough, olive oil and balsamic...oh so good. And a wheat free polenta and pear friand type thingy...OHHHHHhhhh so good. It is ecstacy in a cup cake wrapper really.
    We are off to Train tonight and really looking forward to some live music and a bit of a boogy. Music is such a healing thing.
    Sneezing like a crazy woamn today and sinuses are playing up. I hope whatever is trying to move in stays well away. i am sick of being sick and dont' have time for that cr*p.
    So off to pull up some tights, throw on a skirt or maybe some jeans and go kick my heals up for the night. xoxo

    Thanks Gigi1. Argh, you hit the nail on the head. It's super frustrating and I have so many thoughts and feelings going on and I'm pretty sure it's all normal but it's so hard. My son was diagnosed with croup this afternoon and I haven't slept more than two hours since yesterday so am pretty tired and emotional. I'm not sure when I O'd but from memory, I always ovulated a week after the usual O time, so I am guessing around the 8th or 9th so that would make me around 12DPO now. I have cried all day so something hormonal is happenening.

    I'm super excited one minute and then super scared the next and I knew it would be that way but I had hoped it wouldn't be as bad as this. I'm sure after a sleep tonight (fingers crossed) I'll be a bit clearer tomorrow. I just want to know one way or another, as I'm sure we all do in here. Big hugs and thanks for the support!

    Ok hun, this is good. A couple more days and you should know either way. Thinking of you and hold on. I have a feeling I will be in your shoes very soon. It is pretty amazing how overnight we can either be as right as rain...or ready to jump off the balcony. Arghhh. You are so right though...one moment excitement and the very next...nerves and fright like never before. Hmmm, we girls are pretty strong to handle all this really. I have no idea how sometimes.
    xoxoxohugs and enjoy that sleep. Hope your little boy feels better quickly.

    Chris - your haiku is awesome. Can't wait for another one....

    Teni - Ha. Good ole ScottyDuck is stepping up to the plate again. Good on him..... enjoy the hanky panky.....

    Powelly - oh hun, hope your little one recovers quickly from croup and you get to have some sleep. Sleep deprivation and an ill child, make EVERYTHING harder - just go gently.

    Gigi - well done on leaving the markets - that would have been way too intense for me. I so am proud of you. How was Train? And you had me salivating with the sourdough. My DH is really into making his own sourdough starter and sourdough at the moment. I reckon the first one he made was the best, but since then he has tried lots of more artisan type breads rather than just plain. I might have to ask him nicely to bake a plain one.

    Angelic - Oh blossom, I hope that the decision you've made brings you some peace. It's an exceptionally hard decision to come to and you have all my love for your journey ahead, whatever that may hold, and sincere thanks for your friendship during your time on BB. Holding your angels close. Best wishes my sweet.

    AFM - all good here. Over some of the more annoying reactions to the medication. Woot woot. Looking forward to a quiet week. Take care.

    Gigi1 - Thanks so much for the lovely posts. I'll try and hang in there, don't have much choice do we really! haha

    Jude - It must have been a heartbreaking decision to stop TTC and I wish you nothing but happiness and love as you move onwards. You just never know, so many who stop trying end up "falling". Good luck!

    ChrisW - How did you go? Did you POAS today? I did and got another painful BFN!

    Dory - Glad you are over your reaction to the meds. Must have been nasty. Hope you are feeling much better!

    ASM - Still NOTHING! No periods, BFN this morning and still crampy! I have never been late for AF before so have come to the assumption that my overthinking has caused the delay. I'm sure she'll show her ugly face when I least expect it! My DS is now on steroids for his croup and has responded really quick thankfully so he's on the mend and giving me plenty of cuddles. Not sure who needs them more at the moment :-)
