mamamerle. I'm sorry.

twilight! I saw you on the BFP list first and was like "whaaaaat did I miss???":

all around and thanks for the new thread.

I'm like 5 DPO and not feeling hopeful about this one. Way too early to tell, I know, but I don't feel at all pregnant and I am getting pretty PMSy. Although last month I felt totally pregnant and, of course, wasn't . . .

No pressure, eh?

I'm doing all right--yesterday, I was SO cranky, I have no idea how turtle put up with me. We went to IKEA (which is wholly unrelated to the crankitude) and ended up buying a FABULOUS rug for the tadpole room in primary rainbow colors, as well as simple 8.5 x 11 frames in the same colors (we're planning to have the Small Friends create some art for some of the frames, and use the others to showcase art by our kids). We also picked up these cool lamps that mount right on the wall and give a soft light through plastic shapes--we chose two blue stars and a yellow crescent moon. We wanted to get some blue shelves, too, but they were sold out. I don't know whether we're beckoning the tadpole's soul, exactly, but it seems like the right thing to do just now.

I realized yesterday that part of the reason I was so owly was because my chart doesn't look like it did last cycle--but, uh, HELLO! NO PREGNANCY LAST CYCLE! I'm such a dork, I swear.

I have not a single symptom that I can pinpoint. If I squint, it's possible that my breasts are fuller. If I poke at them, they're tender!

The most noticeable thing is that I have a HUGE amount of energy the past few days--it's not yet 3 p.m. and so far I've gone to church, mowed the lawn, cut down a tree, filled all the bird feeders, played with and fed the cats, and watched a movie. After I'm done on-line, I'm going to clean the kitchen and get started on the tadpole room.

:

Janie, I'm so sorry for your loss. :

And twilight girl! Woohoo! I'm psyched--you know how Jilian said she's always had a feeling that she and I would be in a DDC together? I've always had a feeling that you and I would get pregnant around the same time--I have no idea why.

Congrats Twilight Girl!!! So exciting.... I had a feeling you were pregnant from all your symptoms these past days.

Lets get more BFPs to spread the joy!

[hazieluna]

Frog I hate Ikea and it always makes ME cranky! But I do know the lamps you are talking about, nice! Anyway I like your, oh and pnutS4us also mentioned it earlier, idea of preparing a place for the baby. So she/he knows you are awaiting their arrival. Good luck with setting up the nursery both of you!

And just curiousity, twilight girl, are you going to have your baby in Costa Rica? Sorry if this is too nosey....

[jebandkaci]

Hi Mamas,
Mind if I jump in the fray? I'm currently in the 2ww/waiting to know camp. This is my first cycle seriously TTC since a loss last year and the wait is killing me! I'm about 8dpo and expecting AF on the 14th-ish.

[MamaSweetP]

Wha????

OK, so 6 dpo, and I'm having reamy CM and just for **** and giggles, I checked my CP, and it's high???? I am definitely past ovulation, I'm confused. Her Lady of Our Fertility, Toni Weschler, says nothing about this in her book.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Charlotte

[Stacymom]

Congratulations to Twilight Girl!

And Mamamerle, I'm so sorry about the m/c. I wish you lots of peace and strength when you need it.

And mamasweetp, my cm never really dries up after o. I think my baseline is more creamy- I get lots and lots of it in the tww. And my cervix stays pretty high too.

As for me, beautiful temp spike this morning. I think I o'd sometime between yesterday and today, and dh decided to stop being so weird about ttc, which means we timed things perfectly. I'm feeling pretty hopeful this cycle- I didn't even have a clear thremal shift last time around.

[spiritmomma]

Judi: Congratulations! Sticky baby vibes your way! Best Wishes to you for a HH9!

Basically, I'm just checking in to stalk Frog's chart... again, no pressure!

[Christy1980]

Congrats twilight and SaraJen!

The IL's were here this weekend, SURPRISE, so DH and I got off schedule lastnight. : DH made up for it today, though,

still getting negative OPK's over here. I should be Oing soon, I hope. I'm on CD21, my last normal cycle I O'd on CD22...so :

Oh, and a question about OPK's...all of the ones I have taken have been flatly, blatently negative, as in, there was no test line at all, just the control line, and occasionally a very faint test line that could easily be considered an evap line...Anyway, today, I got a negative OPK, but the test line was actually there this time, lighter than the control line, but there. So does that mean O will be soon?? Does LH build in your system gradually or is it just suddenly there? My ferning scope keeps coming up negative too. Thanks in advance!

oh honey, I'm so sorry.

Changes made to here

Frog: No pressure, just a very enthusiastic pep talk! If I were wittier I would make a cheer... How about:

Knock 'em up, Knock 'em up, Waaaaayyyyy up!

[2much2luv]

[Fishie Kisses]

twilight....CONGRATS TO YOU!!!!!!!! Very exciting....let's keep it up!!!

[2sweetboysmom]

Twilight Congrats lots of and : for you.

[hazieluna]

Still no here.... and still feeling weird. I know it's early in the day and maybe shows up later but I can't help feeling like even with two BFN I may be pregnant. Obviously I am resistant to all signs to the contrary!

I promised DH that today I wouldn't spend the day in this forum. ! I've got to do some work on the house since we have been moving stuff around and now everything's just a mess and needs to be put away. It's shaping up to be a very dull day indeed!

I'm sure I will be checking in constantly! Happy Monday girls!

I got a very supportive and positive email from our midwife this morning--her timing was great, because I've been a little miffed about things. But her email and some nice-looking veins on my breasts and actual tenderness have perked me right up.

[Taradactyl3]

Congrats to this weekends BFPs!!!!!!!

Nothing but hugs for you mamamerle stay strong.

I have a couple symptoms but still feel so sure that it didn't happen this month so these symptoms are like a tease. I remember from DS that I had issues brushing my teeth early on due to a sick feeling and gag reflex. Well I unexpectedly had that last night. I'm also a little yucky feeling this AM, but nothing much really. I am 99% sure it's just a coincidence.

I'm doing a little better about feeling so depressed. I'm trying hard to avoid the people who consistant bring me down. Unfortunatley MIL is coming over this afternoon: .

I'm thinking of all of you a lot now-a-days,
T
