Good morning girls! How is everybody doing? I am completely exhausted! I have been so tired since Monday. I actually fell asleep at work yesterday and this morning. (oops) I'm getting to bed at a normal time, I just can't seem to wake up. Maybe I'll take a nap when I get home from work today. But, I have school tonight and am only home for an hour before I have to leave. Oh well, an hour is better than nothing right? Mandi - What's a naturopath? Karina - It's awesome that you are really starting to show now. Can't wait to see the pics! Did you tell us your nursery ideas yet? If so, I can't remember what they are - can you tell us again? Angela - How are you doing? Are you done with the clomid this cycle? Hope you're feeling ok.

Hey Melissa!!!
i'm doign good girl! Guess what? I went to bingo last night & they manager there told me that he wants to train me up as soon as possible to become a bingo caller! HA HA HA how funny is that??? I've only been doing this for 3 weeks and already I'm being promoted! wahoo!!! That means more $$$ too - great timing... just before Xmas yay!!
A naturopath is sort of like a herbalist that just mixes up all these natural/herbal stuff for you to take. It heaps with everything! TTC, migraines, sore joints in the body etc... very very good!

Mandi, I also read that acupuncture can really help. I wonder if the naturopath would do that too? That's great news about your promotion! You must be doing a great job for it to happen this quickly! Melissa, I'll post the pics probably Sunday. I'm hosting another shower (bridal this time), so I'm pretty busy until Saturday. Anyway, what's up with your temps? Are you watching them or taking a break? As for the nursery, we're leaving it the color we already painted it (peach), the furniture is cherry colored, and my mom is making the bedding, which I plan to be dark sage green and cream colored (so it is gender-neutral). We have drapes in the room that have peach flowers and sage leaves, so it should tie in just fine. Once we get it all put together, I'll post pics for you all! My best friend is due in 1 month, and her u/s yesterday showed she's still breech, so she's having a c-section. Her baby is already 8 lbs (don't know how that converts, Mandi, but it's big for a full-term baby)! They'll induce her early because of his size. It's not much of a surprise, since her DH is 6'8" and she is 5'9". They are a tall couple! My other friend just gave birth tonight too. Kind of crazy right now. Anyway, how are you all doing? Anything new?

Who hoo Mandi! That's awesome. I bet you're really excited about that. Your follow up appointment is also coming up real soon. Karina - I decided not to temp in the 2ww because I just obsess over the temps and drive myself crazy. It's actually helped me be a LOT more relaxed. AND, and I don't feel the incredible urge to poas even though a/f was due yesterday. My test date is Monday and I think I'll be actually be able to hold out until then (for once). The room sounds really cute. Hey, have you had any of your showers yet? Angela - How are you doing? We haven't heard from you in a while. Hope all is well.

Hey girls! Well, I just called my OB so she can call me in some clomid if I don't get my BFP this month. So at least I have something to look forward to.

OMG OMG OMG!!! MELISSA!!!!
Melissa we don't have those tests here in AUstralia, but we have "dodgy" "cheapie" ones, but if you get a BFP on a cheapie one, then I would definitely say try again on a better HPT and I'm sure that will come up a BFP also
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!
That's fantastic news!!!! YAY!

Mandi - I am very cautiously excited right now. I don't know what to think. I took one of these tests last month and got nothing but BFN's.

Thank you Mandi! This test was about an hour ago. 8 pm or so. I am going to see if my ob can get me in tomorrow for a beta since I'm on meds that I would need to stop if I am pg.

OMG, Melissa!!! That is soooo exciting! I used the $ store tests with this pregnancy, and if anything, I didn't think they were nearly as sensitive as the epts I had (I think it took an extra 2 days to test pos. with $ store). Sounds like a positive to me!!! Let us know how the beta turns out--I'll be thinking about it all day tomorrow! Good luck!
