Hey Jacque! I was thinking the same thing. I can't believe you're as far along in your cycle as you are. I am tired of this long cycle. I was just on your website. The nursery looks awesome! That was a good update you gave. ;-) Sorry it took so long for me to respond. I've been kinda busy lately with work and school. Then on my nights that I don't have school I'm with the little guy. He is so darned cute! I was just watching him eat last night. Man, I love that little guy. I bought him the cutest apron yesterday from Old Navy. It's green with red trim and jingle bells and says Santa's Helper on it BUT the cutest part about it is the little elf hat that came with it. He put it on and was running around in it yesterday. So adorable! I'm having my in-laws over for Thanksgiving. I am getting so excited. It's my FAVORITE holiday. I especially love the shopping the day after. ;-) How about you? Any plans for Thanksgiving?

Melissa: WooHoo!!!! You are 5 DPO!!! We are not that far apart in our cycles. I am around 8DPO!!!! This is my keep super busy so I do not test early schedule: Friday 25th: Black Friday!! WOOHOO!!! We are shopping! Saturday 26th: Mike's Parents are coming over and we are going to decorate the house. Sunday 27th: Decorate the outside and Church Monday 28th: Tumbling Practice Tuesday 29th: AOH Meeting Wednesday 30th: TEST DAY!!!! 5 more days Until I can test, thank GOD the TWW fell over Thanksgiving Break, because the TWW is going by so fast. I really do not know how I feel... let see, I am about 8 DPO. I really have no urge to test, and you know... I feel normal. I always have the same symptoms this time of month... and every symptom falls under the category of "this symptom can indicate that AF is just around the corner, but at the same time it can indicate that I will be getting a BFP soon". So, I am not going to speculate.... just hope. Thanksgiving was WONDERFUL - I LOVE THANKSGIVING!!!!, in fact it was the best Thanksgiving we have ever had. The food was perfect, everyone was in an awesome mood, and we had a ton of people here. It was Me, Mike, Kailey, Uncle Donnie, Joette - Jim and Their 4 kids, and 5 of the AOH girls stopped by. We had 15 people, it was perfect. I hope each of our Thanksgivings to come are this wonderful... and you know, I think it was so wonderful because there was no "real" family here. I know that sounds awful, but if you knew how our family was you would completely understand. Other then that, not much is new here. Your son sounds adorable, your story makes me want to go to old Navy and buy one of those Aprons for Kailey!!! I hope he had a good time helping you cook the big dinner, did you have an awesome time? Have a wonderful weekend - try to relax a bit! I hope to hear from you soon! Jacque

Melissa: I love your Christmas Ticker! I just noticed that you, Diane and Renee all have them.... Three days until testing, and I have not even had the urge to test, woohoo! I am 10 DPO today. I still feel normal, so I have no speculation to weather or not I am pregnant. Last month I had a 27 day cycle.... so I might test on CD 27 and 28... we will wait and see how I feel that morning! So, our Kitchen ceiling was leaking this morningg (it is under our bathroom) while we were getting ready for church..... yippee..... so instead of doing my hair and getting ready to head out the door I am now waiting for Menard's to open so I can get so pipe. Thank God Mike and I are handy around the house or we would have to pay a plumber a butt load of money to come out here on a Sunday! Well, I am going to go back in there.... Mike is getting ready to cut open the floor - mind you he has to pull up the tile we just set..... such is life! Oh, I forgot to mention..... we did go shopping on Black Friday. We went to Peoria from about 6pm until Midnight, and we had such a good time. The stores were so slow since everyone went earlier in the day, the best part is that we got a TON of shopping done AND we still got everything on sale! WooHoo! Plus Mikes parents were here yesterday, and Mike's mom was not a total cow. Don't get me wrong, she was still somewhat of a cow... but alot nicer then normal. So, we decided to show them the babies room and tell them that we were trying again. We did not tell them how long we were trying, or about Trent, but they really do not need to know. Mikes dad was so EXCITED!!!!! Mikes mom was a cow, and did not act at all excited. When Don (Mikes dad) was going on and on about the room, Cheryl (Mikes mom) said it looked ok.... OK? WTF is looks frickin awesome. If anything I expect you guys to act like it is no big deal since you are the ones that always have to listen to me go on and on and on about it! lol Ok, I am really needed in the bathroom now... I am just going to copy and past this update in all my boards... I do not have time to retype it over and over again! lol Jacque

My ticker is rushing me... I am only on cycle day one... I really need to fix that. So, I am sitting here feeling all sorry for myself because AF showed. Ever since the m/c I have had 28 day cycles... that is not like me. I am a 27 day girl, but I figured that things were different because of the m/c. Then last month I had my first 27 day cycle in almost a year! Today is CD 27, and AF showed up... right on time. I wonder if my body is just now fully getting back to normal? Who knows... either way I have spent most of the day crying, and then I decided to get online and vent to you..... that is when I saw Jess's post (a friend of mine on AMerican baby) about the expectant mother who's husband is in critical condition. After that I pulled my head out of my a$$. Other then our loss, this year has been great... and true, it might take a few more months to get pregnant, but I know we can make babies.... we have done it twice. So, even though I am a bit sad this was not our month I am happy for my family, and for the opportunity for us to try again. I could not imagine my life without Mike, my heart and prayers goes out to that January mommy, and all others who are in similar situations...... Also, I just checked the calendar.... my test day is CHRISTMAS!!!!

Jacque - I'm sorry I wasn't really here for you when you were feeling down. This week has been really busy for us. Nate's parents are still in town. His sister and her family were in town until Sunday. I'm glad they're gone though. Their son does not play well with others and was constantly mean to my son. Thanksgiving was really nice for us also. We had a very relaxing day. Did you get your bathroom fixed? Man, that sucks that you had to pull up tile that you just laid. I can't believe that Mike's mom was such a butt about the room. It does look totally awesome. Some people! Well, I'm sitting here freezing my butt off and trying not to fall asleep at my desk (again). I have been so exhausted since Monday. It's redicilous (sp). My test day is Monday. I don't even feel like testing right now, so I'm sure I'll be able to hold out.

Melissa: I hope you get that BFP on Monday. I agree, it should not take this long to TTC #2. I feel like I am fighting a losing battle at times. I just told Mandi that sometimes I feel like lesbians would have an easier time getting pregnant then Mike and I do. Why are you not in the mood to test? Are you feeling down, frustrated, or just pissed at TTC.... I felt that way last month also. This month I am getting more and more excited though, especially with my test day being on Christmas!

I just don't think this was my month. I called my ob and she's going to start me back on clomid if I start a/f this week. LMAO about the lesbians. That is too funny! But, I agree. How are you doing today?

I think I'm going to call my ob tomorrow and see if she can get me in for a beta because I'm taking meds that I need to quit if I am pg. Oh, I hope this is it!!!

Melissa: This is such wonderful news! I hope you get into the DR right away! I cannot wait to hear what they have to say. So, when did you test? It had to have been just a few hours ago, right? Is your hubby home? Can he see the line? Is he super excited?

Jacque - I tested around 8 pm. When Nate got home he could see the line. But he wouldn't help me get a picture. He said it was too early to get excited or share with anybody. I think he is just nervous because of the m/c.
