I just wrote out a long note, and then my computer got off-line. So frustrating! Anyway, I'm alright, just getting over a long cold (12+ days).
Angela, temps are looking great--keep us posted! Melissa, have you heard the heartbeat yet? That's such an exciting time! Mandi, how are you doing after your long break? Any word on when the operation will be?
Talk to you soon, Karina

Hey girls - how is everybody doing? We've been VERY quiet here lately. I miss you all! I've been pretty laid out with the m/s lately. Man, it's kicking my butt! Nate said he thinks he'd like to have another child after this one and I said this one might be our last. I don't know if I can do the m/s again.
Karina - We saw the h/b at 6W. I have my next ob appt Monday so I'm getting excited. We should be able to hear it with the doppler by then.
Mandi - How have you been feeling? Can you go private for your surgery to get it done quicker then this summer?
Angela - When is your test day? Also are you geting another cd 21 draw?

Hey girls I'm back!! Sorry this will just only be a very quick post I'm sooo busy! Anyway ... Matt & I had a fantastic holiday away together it was sooo good & to not even think about TTC was even better well u wouldn't believe this but I'm CD48 today and still no sign of AF! This is the longest cycle I've had for almost a year now omg!!! I don't want to test, I just don't want to get my hopes up, especially after the surgeon told me that I only have a 1 in 100 chance of getting PG. i hope you girls had a lovely Xmas and new year

Hi girls! I had my blood drawn yesterday. I am really trying not to stress, so I am not even going to call and get the results. My temps are high (and I am not even sick this time!), but very wacky! I really don't know what to think! FF has my test date as like the 25th (I think bc I still have my pg chart on their and it counts it as a 60 day LP), but if I have not started by Monday then I will test. Melissa-I didnt know that M/S lasted this long! Neither my mom nor my aunt had M/s with their pregnancies, I am hoping that gene passed on to me! Karina-Time passes so quickly, your little bean will be here before you know it! Are you getting excited? Mandi-It was so good to hear from you! I will check back in with girls later! Let me know what you think of my crazy temps!!!!

Angela, was the blood draw for the progesterone results? I think your temps look good--hopefully they will stay high! They look promising right now. Definitely by waiting until Monday to test, you will know for sure one way or the other! Let us know about the progesterone results when you get them.
I'm doing alright--I decided to take my comprehensive exams on February 27 and 28, so I'm really swamped with studying for them right now, almost no time to think about the baby! Basically, they consist of 8 questions that I have to answer by memory on those 2 days. Involves a lot of reading, but I'll be thrilled to get it out of the way before the baby comes. Luckily, Jeremy is working on finishing our basement, so he is busy on that every night too. We want it done for when our families come since it is another living area with a full bathroom. Right now, our house is way too small when visitors come--only 1 bathroom, and we're all practically on top of one another. Mainly, he has to finish it before his parents come, but that's another story in and of itself. ;-)
What's up with the rest of you???

Hey girls, just a quick post from me, very busy at work
I tested Tuesday night & got a BFN... then I tested this morning with FMU and still BFN... I honestly don't know what is going on!! I think I may ask for a blood test if no AF by next weekend. This is just so wierd!
Karina & Melissa..... did you get a few big gushes of creamy CM before you knew you were PG?? Last night I had another pile of creamy CM come out of me and this happened about 2 weeks before also. Nipples are still sensitive and last night & this morning I have noticed my stomache feels a bit bruised and tender to touch, then again so is the rest of my body LOL
I am just so confused!

Well my temps are heading south. I am really tired and frustrated with TTC. I have 2 months left of Clomid and am really considering quitting after that. It is no longer fun and way too stressful.

Angela, I'm so sorry to see your temps down! {{{HUGS}}} Has your dr. suggested anything else? Have you had a lap to see if your tubes are clear? Also, I was just reading today about how men also need to be checked, because half the time infertility is due to both people having factors. Has he seen a dr. too? Just trying to think of some other things you might try... I hope your temp goes back up tomorrow.
Mandi, I definitely had a lot of creamy, white CM when first pregnant, both times actually. It's weird that your cycle has gotten more messed up after your surgery. I know that endo can do that, though. Seems like it would be a good idea to call your doctor anyway--maybe they can also test your progesterone to see if you ovulated already?

Hey girls just thought I would let you know that I got AF on Friday & OMG it's been so heavy & painful! I don't know if this is because I had a 51 day cycle last month or what? I'll attach some pics that I took in Sydney Here is me and my Xmas outfit mummy got me for Xmas And here is Matt and his little newphew Blake. He's 2 in March. He's such a cutie Sorry about the big pics girls. My mum got the photos printed so I had to scan them on the computer here at work I hope you all had a lovely weekend

You are such a cutie, Mandi! Great pics. :-) I do think your AF is so heavy due to it being a long cycle--when my cycle was off, the really long ones would be awful. Hopefully you will have a regular cycle next time!
I'll try to post some pics soon--I just never get on our desktop. Everything is going well here--we start childbirth ed classes tomorrow. I think the baby is still breech, so who knows if I'll even use the info, but you never know!

Hey girls! How is everybody doing? Sorry I haven't been on in a couple days. Friday was a very hectic day, and this whole week is going to be also. Ugh! Just that time of the year. I will write more when I get home tonight though. Karina - I didn't know the baby was breach. Mandi - I'm sorry a/f showed. I agree with Karina though that it is probably heavier due to it being a long cycle. Angela - I am so sorry about a/f also. Maybe you could take a break for a month or two now and relieve some of the stress you're under then finish the last two cycles of clomid later.

Hey Melissa!!! Good to hear from you babe!
Wow 10 weeks PG already! My goodness how fast has that flown! It's just amazing!!!
I'm going really well. AF has died down quite a lot in such a short period of time so I'm very very happy & grateful for that. I wanna get back to some serious BD'ing!!! he he he
Hey girls thought I would let you know the big boss at bingo has promoted me permanently and Thursday night I have my big calling debut! I'm doing the main session calling on Thursday night in front of 200+ people and for 2.5 hours! I've only had 2 training/sessions done & that was for the late sessions on the weekends and that only goes for 30 mins and in front of 15-20 people. Very very nervous but I hope I'll be okay. Oooo I'm so scared!!!!

Great news about your job, Mandi! I'm sure you will do very well--you seem outgoing and fun, so just be yourself! It's okay to stop and take a deep breath if you need it. :-)
Melissa, good to hear from you. What are you working on that makes this time of year so busy? About the breech baby, my u/s showed that, but the dr. said not to worry much, since they can flip. I thought maybe she had, but I think I can make out where her head is sometimes, and I think I can feel knee jabs and kicks if she's in the position I think she is. Honestly, my bf had a c-section 3 weeks ago and was back to normal in about 3 days, so I'm not concerned if I have to have one--just hope I know in advance!
We were supposed to start childbirth ed classes tonight, but the instructor called it off since she's sick. So, we're starting next Monday. Not much else going on here--American Idol starts tomorrow, and I'm always way into it, even though I don't like other reality tv. Jeremy hates that I watch it, but hopefully he'll give me the indulgence again! ;-)
