Hey everyone!

How are you all? I am okay, I guess. I have tested once and got a BFN. I tested yesterday on 9dpo. Everyone is saying that there is still hope and that it was early to test, so I will remain hopeful until AF actually arrives. She is not due for several more days.
The only sxs I am having is a little bit of boobie soreness, and it only to the touch and not even that as much as it was earlier, so I don't know! We will see!

Elle-I hope that you have a good time on your vacation. Where are you going?

Becky--Is everything ok? Just have not heard from you in while.

I hope everyone else is having a great day!

Hey everyone,

I havnt been on in a while cus things have been kinda hectic and there really is no news with me...but thanx for asking i appriciate it. Im actually kinda lost as to where im holding in my cycle, I stopped using OPK's and I havnt been charting, CM has been non exsistend so I actually have no clue when I O. I made this decision cus last month things were really getting out of hand, I bought 3 rounds of OPK's (which was really expensive) and was getting really high hopes only to be completely crushed when

arrived, so i decided to let things just go on thier own and pray for Godly intervention. DH and I bd everother night to make sure we cover our grounds. Ive been really well and managing to keep my mind off of things untill today when I found out my really good friend had a baby ( we had the same EDD, but I had my m/c) it brought back things and made me realize how badly I want to be pg and have a child....so so so badly that i could just go outside scream it out and throuw a crazy tantrum like a little kid who isnt getting what he wants!!! so Im kinda frustrated that I dont know whats going on with my body and cant even count down to testing

Anywhoo so dont take my ticker into consideration, but im on CD 23 right now..so all im gonna countinue doing is pray to G-d that this will be my month...cus it just has to be. and the rest of you
sorry for the blah blah blah but writing this post really hepled me put things into perspective.
Thanx for listening
Becky

Hi ladies,

I couldn't figure out how I had gotten to be 2DPO when I posted yesterday. I went back to FF and realized that I had been tweeking numbers to see where I would hit my O date and whether or not the BDing we had done would fall into "the zone". I guess I forgot to punch out the early entry (I entered the temp for the 28th on the 27th). At any rate, my temp didn't climb by as much as it needed to to qualify for post-O -I was hoping for a nice birthday present but fell short by 1/10th of a degree.

Maybe tomorrow. Until I know I'm reluctant to have that lovely glass (aka bottle) of wine with my dinner tonight. Long story short- I hope to be PO by tomorrow (yippee, the last day of school)

beckachaw

You're in my thoughts.

ajp13-

Here's hoping for more sxs soon!

elle-thanks for asking about me! Enjoy your vacation.

Hey everyone,

How are you all this morning? I am okay, I guess. I got another BFN this morning, I am 11dpo. But I still have hope. I will have hope until AF arrives. She should rear her ugly head Sat. or Sun. if she is going to. Oh well we will see!

Becky--I hope that this month goes better for you! Try to remain postive. I am curious to know if the preseed really does what it is supposed to. I ordered some yesterday along with a few other things and I was just wondering if I wasted money.

Thank you Elle and Rebeca for the

and

. I am keeping them crossed too! How are you two doing?

Kikki-When do you leave for SD? Today or tomorrow? I was telling dh that you and your dh were going to SD to see Mt. Rushmore and he thought that was cool. SD is one of the states I have not been too. It is a goal of mine to go to all 50 during my life and I have about 20 more to go. I am going to New Orleans at the end of July and that is also one I have not been to. I mainly have not been out west except to CA, across the plain states, and through the extreme NE states. I know that sounds like a lot but it is really not that many.

Pam--Good luck at the dr. tomorrow!

Shelly--Have you been to the Dr. yet?

Hi Nicki and Jen--How are things going with you all?

Amanda-I didnt try the preseed yet, I did order it, but I am living outside of the states for a bit and they only ship in the U.S. so im waiting for someone who is going back to the states to bring it to me. I will prob use it next month if I dont get pg this month...but I really hope it wont come to that (please G-d) also remember "its never a for sure NO, till

says hello"

Jen - how was your trip? I hope you had a BLAST - can't wait to hear the stories!

Becky - Hope you get that preseed & it works for you - I still haven't tried it either!

Rebeca - Go girlie - I know it stinks when you don't know if you can have a drink or not - I hope you are gonna get that

Amanda--11 dpo is still early, so I have lots of hope for you! Don't the days drag on like eternity at this point in the cycle? It would be great for this to be your month--someone here is due for their BFP

Kikki--I hope you have lots of fun on your trip. BDing in a tent should be just the change of pace needed to keep things interesting. DTD this much definately has my mind going on how to keep from feeling bored. We even BD'd at my office last month! I work alone and it wasn't as exciting or spontaneous as I'd hoped, but every time doesn't have to be earth shaking as long as it gets the "troops" where they need to go.

Rebeca--I know what you mean about not knowing if you can drink or not. I'm always hesitant to drink around when I think I'm going to O as I'm scared it'll screw with my temps and confuse me further. That was one of the hard parts of last month as I experience my first 2ww--depriving myself of caffiene, alcohol, soft cheeses, etc and not even knowing if it was all for nothing? I really drank my *** off the day AF arrived--that margarita and cosmo had never tasted so good

Re: Preseed--I just got Preseed for this cycle and started using it a few days ago. To be honest, I don't know that it is really good for anything other than a lubricant that doesn't kill sperm, but as I have very little CM I'm figuring that it cant hurt. I figure that each month we don't get pg means we have another month to save money, so the $20 per box won't kill us. And if we do get pg then we'll call it $20.00 well spent

As for me, I'm awaiting O. As last month was my first off BCP, I'm trying not to put much stock in the day I O'd, but just in case I'm "pretending" that I'll O around the same time to cover my bases. I keep imagining that O pains are starting, but it seems to be all in my head. Now I'm debating whether to start BDing every day as of today or hold off. I don't want to wear DH out too soon, but I'm scared that I'll miss my time. Also, I've had very little CM, but I've been taking Mucinex and green tea and I have noticed that my "creamy" is more like "milky" instead of being like lotion like I had last month. If nothing else, I figure this gives the swimmers a better chance of getting through. Still praying for EWCM someday though.
