That is so sad about Chris (Confused Egg) I dont really know her but I cant believe how unfair life can be. Even though I am not in Sydney I would love to help her family, I dont have any "boy" clothes as we didnt find out Nicholas' sex before he was born but I do have plenty of gorgeous little outfits that have never been worn (although they were washed in preparation for his arrival) and I would be happy to post something up to one of you to put in from Nicholas, I know he would love that and so would I.
Lynn - All the best for tomorrow. I really hope your FS can give you a plan and some answers and maybe some positive vibes for April cause I second that APRIL WILL BE OUR MONTH (pretty please with a cherry on top )!!!! I hope your ears feel better you poor thing, the fish sound like a beautiful idea and I can tell you now that my mum used to have a tropical fish tank and she found her little fishies very relaxing she could just sit and stare at them for the whole night. By the way, I love their names!
Spring - All the best for tomorrow, I will be thinking of you and lil Spring and although it is absolutely killing me to know whether to look for a pink or blue pressie (you know I am really impatient LOL) I will be happy to wait until his/her arrival into your arms.
Deb - Your easter holiday sounds wonderful and I really hope you enjoy it and come back with some good news (or at least not long after that), you really deserve the break.
Bailey - Did you happen to use an OPK at all or are you just going on CM? I sort of agree with the other girls, I remember that when I was pregnant I kept running off to the toilet wondering if I was spotting because of all the CM... fingers crossed!
Nat - Sorry you werent feeling too good, hope the "better" feeling hangs around.
Hi to everyone else.
Well if you hadnt noticed I have changed my ticker to CD1 which yes means AF showed up tonight at about 8pm. I didnt have all that much hope anyway considering she was due yesterday and I did a test this morning and it was BFN. I dont know why she felt the need to mess with my head because I can guarantee you I had my hopes up last night seeing as she has NEVER been late before (well not since I was pregnant anyway). But oh well what can ya do?
My OB rang me at lunchtime today with DHs results... not the best WARNING: TMI FOLLOWING!... Count is high which is great, they swim well and last long enough which is also great but 90% are of "poor quality" which he believes is most likely the reason it is taking a while to fall pregnant. He thinks that the tension from both of us during TTC time isnt helping. I dont really understand how this can be the case when he has produced 4 healthy babies (Nicholas was healthy, I was the problem) and now all of a sudden this problem comes up. The OB said it isnt too bad a problem and that basically it just means that what might take another couple 2-6 months to do may take us 8-12 months!!! WTF??? I cant wait 12 months!!! I dont really know what to do. I dont really know all that much about these problems and in all honesty it never entered my head that this could be the problem. DH is obviously devastated and when AF showed up tonight he actually apologised to me which made me feel awful. I told him that he doesnt have to feel guilty everytime AF shows cause it is not his fault and he said it is cause his body isnt working properly. I said well if you think that about yourself technically I could say that it is my fault Nicholas died cause my body didnt work properly! He saw my point and said he will try not to worry about it but I can tell he is really upset. I have made out like I am not worried at all and that we just need to be patient and eventually it will happen. I would not be doing him any favours stressing out so instead I will stress out to all of you girls. Anyway, in a way its good to have answers... but I think I would have preferred not to have answers and therefore no reason to have problems iykwim.
On a different note, we have decided not to wait to build a house and are going to talk to the banks about a full mortgage (very scary ) to buy the land and get the house underway. We fell in love with a display home that is absolutely perfect for us and our family situation (or planned one anyway). I knew we shouldnt have gone looking but bugger it, we may as well get ourselves sorted out before another bub comes along - especially seeing as it may take a while now. Talk about some severe retail therapy!!!! Not that we have bought it yet, but we are very seriously looking at our options.
DHs kids are staying with us this week, except Wed and Thurs, until Easter Sunday and because DH has to work I am looking after them (YAY to a week off - although agency called this morning and asked me to work Thurs so I said yes seeing as they wont be here). We went and did some fun things with my sister, nephew and niece today and they all had a ball, so did I actually. The youngest (2 and a bit) keeps calling me "Mummy" and I dont really know what to do, I kept correcting her today and saying "no I am Mel" and at one stage I frustrated her and she yelled at me and said "no Mummy". DH says to ignore it and she will grow out of it but I am worried they older kids will go home and tell their mum that she does and her mum will crack it. Up until recently she has called me "Mel Mel" so I dont really know what has changed but now it is quite clearly "Mummy".
Anyway guess I should be off to bed seeing as I have to get up with the kids. Sorry again for the long post but I dont really want to break any habits right? LOL
Take care girls, Mel
