You totally have the same attitude I had when I got married, in the end I bought a formal dress but it was nothing at all like a brides dress and I more did it because everyone thought I should - not that I am complaining cause I had a nice day. The best bit was seeing DH in a suit, I LOVE a man in a suit its very sexy! But also everyone was expecting me to get really excited about it and while I was happy to be marrying DH deep down I was still sad, sad that it took us losing Nicholas to see that it was what we wanted and also sad because our child couldnt be their with us. And, really as much as it is a good thing to happen I would give it all back and "live in sin" if it meant we could have him. I dont know if that is how you feel, but that is where my head was at. But like I said I still had a nice day, and a great holiday afterwards. Yours will be special cause you are the bride
Oh and yes it is O time, DH has been reminding me all day that tonight is the 1st TTC night And if I remember correctly, you are around abouts at the stage arent you? I so hope March is the month for all of us - what a fantastic month if we had 4 You, Lynn, Deb and I... but I will just cause I dont wanna jinx us!
Mel - Well what on earth are you doing here woman?? Get in there and make babies!!
Yeah, I am roughly the same as you, but my cycles are longer so really I will O next week, but I ain't taking any chances, so we are just gonna 'go to town' all week til DP goes away on the 26th. Then I will know that we gave it our best shot, Hopefully I will have morning sickness on my honeymoon.
I know what you mean, we always said we will get married but it was just never that important, and now it feels like it is. But it will be a happy/sad day, I guess like any event, you are there having a good time, then it hit's you that someone, a very important little someone is not there. That is the hard part. That's when I sit there and say to myself, why did this happen to me? This doesn't happen to us, this is something that you hear about happening to people that you don't know, but not us.
Oh well. Your dress is really nice, you guys really look happy in your photo.
I really hope we all stage a mass exodus of the TTC thread and all invade the Pregnant one by next month. Oh and hey, congrats on the job, that's great! Now go and get BD'ing! Lotsa for you this week!
LOL - DH is working tonight, at home on his laptop, and has a deadline so says he will pack up at 10.30! He better, I havent been sleeping too well so I am not staying up all night... ok well the want to get pregnant is enough to make me stay up all night if I have to but I wont tell him that.
We were happy in our photos, although my sister kept telling me off saying I had a fake smile on - but you know after a while your like "just take the darn photo"! I remember Nicholas was on my mind the whole day though, and on DHs as well. Every one was asking at work and everything leading up to the day am I excited and I was kinda like yeah I guess and they all said oh well dont act too excited. Basically, I understand what your saying - you are happy but its bittersweet. Just like alot of things will be for all of us in life, including our next bubs.
Wow, your DH must be really upset that you have to (love that one) until he goes away - how will he cope? LOL. I hope you have morning sickness on your honeymoon too, and that we all go out in sympathy. Wow, if you think about it if we all had a mass exodus from this thread there would be noone here. I am sure there used to be more people in here but they seem to have disappeared.
Nat - you are such a strong woman. I am so glad that I have you around to support me :hugs: I hope you got some sleep last night. Take care, thinking of you.
Spring - Woo hoo - 13 weeks! How are you feeling? I bet you can't wait for DH to come this weekend and show him all the photos of lil' Spring and that beautiful spine! I saw the ad for savings babies (which usually I walk away - I just can't watch it, even the ads) and I said to DH, I hope Spring didn't see that. It is hard to see or hear our babies names. Cooper is not common although I have seen it around here on peoples sigs. I hope you are feeling ok today.
Mel - that is excellent about the job. It will keep your mind busy and it sounds like it won't be a stressful job so that will help with your BFP this month! That would be great if we all got our BFP this month, although I am a little bit behind you guys because of my long cycle But I am that positive I have worked out my due date - call me crazy but hey I've got to get through the day somehow!
Bailey - LOL at your wedding plans! Sometimes I think a low key event is the way to go. I remember my sisters wedding last year - bridezilla!!!!! It would have been great if she had done what you are doing. It doesn't matter how you celebrate it as long as you are both happy. It is hard that everything we do, there is someone missing. They are in our hearts but they still feel like they are missing.
Deb - good to see that you aren't here, because that means you are busy! It must be great to have DH back for the company but also in time for
A non-eventful day for me today, dentist and cleaning the house - what fun! I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I know I shouldn't be looking forward to a BT (Spring you will think I am a nutcase!!!!) but I am looking forward to actually doing something positive to get me that BFP this month. They said that they will be able to ring me on Saturday lunchtime with the results and then we can work out how often I need to go in for a BT and u/s. I dnn't care how many holes I have in my arm as long as it works!!!!
Lynn - I am not doing OPKs this month. Your right I do hate them, I think I really stressed myself out last month because they gave me all negs but I did actually O so I figure we will just (hehe) away and hope for the best. Plus I dont have any left and didnt order any online, and they ones in the shops are pretty expensive especially when they are not necessarily accurate. How was your quiet day today? Hope it was ok and your are feeling alright. Well done on the cleaning, I have lacked so much motivation this week. Being home for 2 weeks you would think my house would be spotless... but I am sorry to admit that I am a domestic dud! DH knew this before marrying me though LOL.
I spent the day at my sisters house and then went to pick DH from work. He is now on his way home from picking the kids up and I am going to try my hardest to be more patient with them so I am not the evil step mother that I was last weekend. I am just gonna do a quick tidy before they get here (have been slack this week!). Oh and good luck with BT tomorrow.
I hope everyone is having a good day.
Take care,
Mel

Well I am fuming at the moment because our stinking tenants are the biggest pains in the behind and look like they are going to try to take us to the Residential Tribunal because we refuse to extend the cement under the clothesline. They are crazy, it is not their house!!!! They even hung up on our Real Estate Agent, HOW RUDE. I am just so angry but as DH said, they can do what they like, we are not budging and their lease is up in July so see you later... It just makes me angry but I know there are more important things in life to worry about so up theres..... They forget that I prosecute people for a living so if they want a fight, bring it on.
On a positive note, and as I try to stop fuming, I got the report with the risks from the ultrasound back today. Everything seems great. Chance of Trisomy 21 is 1:31963 and chance of Trisomy 13,18 is 1:17535. Can't complain with numbers like that.
DH is on his way and I have just walked in the door so I am going to try to get a shower in and tidy up a bit. Depending on how I go I'll pop in later for personals. I don't think I will call around the family tonight and tell them about Lil Spring because I am so angry that I don't want to spoil what should be an exciting time. You never know, I might calm down. I guess I should try and laught about it becuase obviously they are very pathetic people who have nothing better to do.
And if I remember correctly, you are around abouts at the stage arent you? I so hope March is the month for all of us - what a fantastic month if we had 4
