me too! i wanna get the party started (too bad i have to work tomorrow, wont be the weekend till after that i guess...)
Weekend Check-In
Name: KarmaB (jamie)
Date: date? I never know what the date is these days, but I do know it is cd 20, 9 dpo!
Where are you in your cycle: ah.... see above
Symptoms if they apply: really none. had some cramping dpo 5-6, actually fairly rough cramping, which i could talk myself into thinking is implantation related. or it may have been that indian food i had. (mmm, saag)
When are you thinking of testing: if auntie flo doesnt visit, thinking about testing sunday, which probably means saturday. prob should wait till tues, but wont.
Thoughts: i wonder if craving little debbie swiss chocolate rolls dipped in peaches and cream yogurt is and early preg sign? i tried to input it into ff, but it didnt raise my 'early preg sign' percentage. anyway, it was deeelicious. alas, i am prepared for a no-go this month, to the point that i broke down and ordered an ov-watch this morning. hope it gets here in time.
Appointments: -
Any new regimes, ie herbs, medications, mantras etc: first month on progesterone and b6, and so far, so good. at least i've got 2 extra days out of LP so far, and af is not coming in next 12 hours at least- this i know because i get a very distinct headache 12-24 hours before, without exception. i know af shouldnt come on prog till i stop, but i didnt really believe it. so looking good there.
Do you have any stress triggers: turned 42. doesnt really bother me, i look mahvelous, and years younger too (no, really i do

) not that that makes my ovuum any more nubile.
What is working to help you be stress-free this cycle: i'm staying busy loving my new husband and my kids and counting my blessings and talking to God a lot, and trusting Him that whatever happens, even if it's not what we think we want, it always works out for the better, we just don't always see it that way when we are in the midst of it. the hardest things ive ever been through in my life, an unplanned pregancy in college (now my 21 year old awesome twin sons, one of which just got a killer scholarship to emory law school yesterday) my ex-husband leaving me (he was an awful human being, i just didnt know the whole story yet) and hurricane katrina (which actually brought my dh and i together) each ended up being the best things that ever happened. (not that im
asking for any more hard times, God, just that i trust you Big Guy.) there are always silver linings, sometimes we just need to search for them.
Partners feelings if applicable: doesn't say too much about it, neither do i, i think neither one of us wants to add any pressure to the other. but we visited with his 3 mth old niece last week, and i did see a tear on his cheek. i know he wants this. hope we can do it. he is a good man.
