Crystal, I hope your family is feeling better soon, and that you escape the virus. Stomach illnesses suck bigtime, my friend and I were just debating which is worse, major stomach flu or lice (lice is going around the schools here 
). It's a close one, they are both pretty terrible.
On the subject of creamy cm in the LP, yes it does occur more often in pg cycles, but I just about always have creamy cm starting around 7 dpo, and on my clomid cycles I had a ton of it, throughout just about the whole LP. It is caused by a small estrogen surge about halfway through LP, and in my case I suspect with the clomid it was just higher levels of estrogen (and higher of progesterone too).
Still
: hoping it means something really awesome for you Christy, especially if you do not usually have this sign 
:
Geez Ity, I know am right there with you. Tomorrow I am co-hosting a Mother Blessing (like a baby shower but more homebirthy) for a friend who got pg with #3 about a year after we started trying 
I love her dearly but I won't say it doesn't hurt. And I am glad to be there for her (and she is going to HBAC and I am so excited for her as I hope to do that myself soon) but I cannot wait until tomorrow night when it is over ! If anyone asks me when we're having another I think I might explode on them. And someone is bound to ask !
I am sorry to hear AF has been such a witch to you too this time around. I couldn't believe how bad I cramped and ached last weekend, and I had cramps thorugh cd4 which is unusual for me. It must be the extra witchy clomid AF. I hope you are able to put your feet up and relax doing something you enjoy
That sounds like fun, I wish I were going with you. Your chart is lookin gooood ! 
:
I am sorry to hear it's not looking like we'd hoped at this point 
I think that is very positive to pick out the carseat. Get the carseat and they will come to it right ? I remember someone in here saying they got out their infant car seat (they had an older child, it was the old one I think) and put it in the car as an invitation. And she was pg when she told about that. I don't remember who it was though.
Personally I cannot see myself explaining my insanity (about why I have an infant car seat in my car) to all the folks who are bound to ask about it, but that is just me.
Teneal, Lily, Booja's mom, Valarie, Leslie, Sarah and all the many other how are you all today ? Ok I know Sarah is frozen in a block of ice
:
My day is about to begin, I hope the next 36 hours go by quickly and smoothly.
Have a wonderful day everyone

At least this last cycle I totally picked out my carseat! It's ridiculous...

: Stay safe and warm!
: I don't know why I continue to torment myself with thinking about what week I'd be in and how big I'd be but I can't help it some days. And then I get to feeling like I'm a complete fool for being hopeful that it'll EVER happen for us again. I'm so angry with myself for feeling like this and I'm so fed up with hoping and staying positive when I just want to cry.
