Hi Ladies,

I had meant to check in yesterday, but have been so busy that I worked through the night Sunday and on through most of Monday to meet a timeline. Dead tired now (day after is always the worst). Makes me feel old! I used to be able to do this on back to back nights without missing a beat (20 years ago, that is!!!!).

Angelic – Sending you my love and best wishes, hun. I know that must have been a difficult decision to come to, but somehow freeing also. Thanks for your encouragement and friendship. Take care sweetie. xoxo

Powelly – Sorry about your BFN, hun. Maybe July will be a better month. Also hoping your DS is doing better.

Gigi – Glad to see that you were able to take care of yourself first at the market that day. It’s too easy to think ‘I should be able to handle this’ when your little voice is telling you to get the H&LL out of there! Also sounds like you had a great night out boogie-ing! I can’t remember the last time DH and I did that (hmm… think I need to do some planning..)

I think you are right about your DH trying to protect himself by not getting his hopes up – mine does the same. Sometimes it just feels like you’re being smacked by wave after wave of disappointment and it’s just so hard to stay on your feet. Know that we are here for you, hun, and that we have hope enough for all of us. Fingers crossed for your BFP this month.

Tenibear – Looks like the BD bonanza is well started. Gotta get those fresh swimmers in the queue! Good luck sweetie!

Samcougar – Hope everything is going well. Are you going for bt’s?

Dory – Glad your side effects have passed and that your furbabies are doing well. I do have another poem for today’s HPT, but BB has rules regarding foul language!

Hi also to Chez, Cmeglles, Crumpet, CharliB, SusieQ, Hope, Lemonade, and anyone else I may have missed. Hope you are all doing well.


AFM – I was going to test Monday morning, but since I was up all night from Sunday I couldn’t really tell which was my first morning urine (iykwim). I thought it best to wait until today. Unfortunately still BFN, so I’m going to stop my progesterone and bring on AF (19 dpo). When I’ve been pregnant before, I always showed positive at least by 15 or 16 dpo, but I just wanted to be sure. On a positive note (tmi warning), at least I know that the progesterone gel suppository I started using this month is delivering enough hormone to stop my lining from shedding. Last month I was on transdermal progesterone alone and AF rudely showed up before I invited her! I’m actually not surprised we aren’t pg since DH and I were visiting relatives in different parts of the state when my EWCM showed up (of course). This time it looks like I’ll be o’ing right in the middle of a week long vacation we have planned, so maybe July will be our month!

Love and hugs to everyone!
