howdy everyone.
Starbright- how desperately stressful for you. i am sending my best hopes out to you, dear. i hope you can stay busy enough to keep from going crazy! yes, i am trying hard to keep the pregnancies separate, but it is a challenge. i still feel Yeti near me, unlike before, so i'm so sure he's happy for his family. that helps so much. little peanut's due date is a month after Yeti's so i'll have to cross that bridge when i get to it. i'm sure Darren will be looking out for you too. my spotting sounds very similar to yours. i had some on tuesday am and wednesday am (when af was due). it was just a little blood in my underware and some on the paper on tuesday. then nothing. i waited until the following tuesday to test, because with Yeti i got several negatives and didn't get a positive until one week after af was due. i guess that's just how my body and pregnancy hormones works. maybe yours does too??!! like Spring said, no af is a darn good sign!
Klee- the positive outlook sounds like a great idea. hopefully the witty banter here helps keep you positive! it does seem like just the thing to give your body a hint of the right direction.
Mel- good luck with the IVF, i'm not sure what it involves other than lots of doctors. i hope it isn't too painful a journey, and that it ends soon in a bfp!
Lynn- i was wondering how you are dealing with the cord fears. my midwife suggested she could give me a doppler, although she made me promise not to wear it like an ipod all day. lol. week to week sounds like the only way. my sister in law (a pediatrician) told me that scans with high-risk obs can tell if the cord is in a dangerous place. is that what you get done each week?
