So, I think I either ovulated already, or I'm about to. : either way. As much as it's a pain (to me, at least) to insure BD'ing at certain times, I'm gonna have to get over myself and get'er done! So to speak.

How are ya'll doing?

[kriket]

subbing!

AF is due today. It's 8.30 here. The little bioch is going to wait till the last possible second and make me cry again.

and where is bluerino... her chart tells me she has news!

[JustKiya]

*hug* Kriket - AF is a mean old witch, is what she is, when she isn't a harbringer of wonderfully good news. *sigh* Tis amazing how different things are when you WANT to be knocked up, ain't it?

Oooh, it DOES!!!!! : : : for BlueRhino - someone DID graduate last month!!! *happytears*

I've been so bloody emotional lately!!!! *glares at chart* And my chart is confusing the living DAYLIGHTS out of me.

ETA: Though, I did just realize, in glancing at the date on my phone, this cycle marks 18 months of TTC. I suspect I have some angst to work out over that that I haven't been fully acknowledging.

[ELKMama]

:

Just wanted to pop in and tell you all that I'm thinking of you and hoping that many, many of you soon move to the "Amazing Grads" list and then get to enjoy your own "Bouncing Babies!"

[JustKiya]

Thank you ELKMama!!!!

[fierrbugg]

Kiya!! Thanks for the Sept. thread. You Rock!! : for your o.

kriket: Sorry that is imminent. She sucks!!

Elkmama: I so love you. Thanks for the dust!!

Ladies, sorry that I skipped out on all of you in August. We just moved our offices, and now my morning drive is long and stressful. I also developed my FOURTH mrsa infection this year. I was doing well for a while with just Vit C - but alas, it's here with a vengeance again. I did call my doc and demand that she prescribe the RIGHT anti-biotic this time. My paramedic hubby, my RE, at least one other doc and the internet (darn that thing, right?) - all say that it should be Bactrum. While she keeps on insisting that Tetracyclene should be working. Well, it hasn't worked three times, so maybe we should try it the way everone else says we should? I'm so sick of being in pain, crabby, and tired. Oddly enough though, she did prescribe Bactrum to dh when he got a staph infection earlier this year and he hasn't had one since. I really think she doesn't want to admit that she's wrong. Which is part of why we're changing PCP's. I just don't think I should have to argue with a doc to get quality care.

Anyway, I'm also on cd145. BUT, I want to get this taken care of before we move onto the next step w/ ttc. Plus I think maybe being sick so much since April might have something to do w/ this very long cycle. I'm trying to be patient while in my head I want to scream and throw things.

[JustKiya]

CD145!!??!??! Oh, HUNNY! I'm so very sorry, that's gotta be *scream* inducing. I canna even imagine!

KRIKET!!!!!!!! : : : I was just chart stalking - CONGRATS!!!!!!! Oh, joys upon joys!!!

Let me know when you want to moved to the grads list!

[fierrbugg]

kriket: Well, that's just awesome!!

Congrats!!
:::

[fierrbugg]

How's everyone else doing this fine Saturday?

[ryan'smom]

Congrats to the grads!! That's awesome!

AFM: 7dpo. DS is nursing 3 times a day. I may end up cutting him back to 2times if this isn't the cycle. (He'll turn 3 in October.)

Hope we have lots of Sept. grads!

Good Luck!

Laura

Hey yall, just dropping in to say hi... and to keep from getting dropped off the list.

Currently freaking out because it's time to decide whether to try, try again or wait another cycle-- I'll be ovulating in a day or two I think. The concept of a successful pregnancy is so remote in my mind right now, that I actually asked my DH, "So do you think we should start trying for our next miscarriage now, or wait?", and didn't realize what I'd said wrong until he stared at me funny.

The docs tell me that the odds are in our favor... but thats what I've been told after EVERY miscarriage. How many does it take until the odds aren't in my favor anymore, I wonder...

Anways here's to a bunch of grads this month!

[JustKiya]

I'm doing pretty good, myself....

[kriket]

thank you ladies! I don't know what to do with myself! I don't know if it will stick or whats going to happen. I'm very nervous!

[JustKiya]

Oh, I can totally understand being nervous!!! : I'm just so thrilled for you!!! How'd DH react when you told him?

[kriket]

he kind of stared at me, a little green (although he did just wake up) But now he's like a duck in water doing all the "fatherly" things like IMing me at work and asking how I am feeling and getting the nursery ready. It's surreal.

[Carlin]

Hi all

As of September, we've officially been ttc for 12 months, so I was hoping I could join you...

We've been ttc #1 since September '07. I know there are a few of us who just hit the 1 year mark, so, while I hope no one is here long, It would be nice to chat with people who understand the frustration!

Thanks and : for lots of fall graduates!

I just hit the one year (and 14 cycle) TTC mark, too.

[fierrbugg]

ryan'smom: : for you this cycle.

Mara: !! Those first few post-mc cycles can be awful. It's so difficult sometimes to make that decision (go, no-go?) but I know that whatever you did decide was the right one for you and that's all that matters. I've been thinking about you.

kriket: Thinking many thoughts for you!! :

Carlin and Joyakshi: Welcome, both. I hope your stays are short and sweet.

First let me say that my life is normally very boring. Just in the last 6 months has it reached idiotic levels of drama and challenges. Dh is 3000 miles away this week for a training. I took him to the airport Sunday morning around 5 am - noticed my passenger side headlight was out. No big - I don't normally drive when it's dark, and it's something he could fix over the weekend - he's back on Friday. But yesterday it was storming and I noticed that my other light is out too. I'm hoping that it's just a matter of buying some lightbulbs because w/ this trip that came out of the blue - things are tight this week. So, I'm : that it's something cheap and easy. I had to call in to work so I can take my car to my parents later today and have my dad/brother look at it - just in case it's something big - like oh, say my battery eating through my whole front end again.

In other news, I have been getting dizzy spells since Saturday night. Yesterday I had a headache all day and was dizzy for most of the day. I can't tell you how fun it is to be off-center while driving in rush hour traffic. When I was having periods, I tended to get anemic and getting dizzy was my cue to eat more foods w/ iron. So, I had a very healthy dinner last night - while literally tripping all over my feet. : I'm still having slight issues this morning, but don't know what to do about it. I'm guessing it could also be a reaction to my meds or my infection or? I was going poas this morning to rule that out, but forgot. Has anyone else had this happen to them?
