2boys and (hopefully?) KTF, big congrats on your BFPs. I know you both have been through a lot to get your much deserved, hopefully healthy & girly pregnancies.
XX, I hope you're feeling better today?
tarasue, I am also particular about potential due dates, for multiple reasons including astrology and my own seasonal issues (I have SAD so no Jan/Feb babies for me). I know it's not up to us but I can't help trying to at least aim for al Fall baby. Good luck with clomid too, I am jealous! I do think it will help make a strong egg as well as strongly swaying pink.
Ladies, my mother from whom I've been estranged for several years now, just died (apparently on her 70th birthday, eerily enough). We had a very difficult relationship and she hurt me very badly (lies, betrayal, slander thefts of huge sums of money leading up to our estrangement and even after I cut off contact), but I am really sad bc now there is no chance she will ever change and become a true mother. It was unlikely, I knew that with how increasingly psychotic she became over time, but I still kinda hoped. My biological father died this past summer very suddenly, but he had severe alzheimer's for several years and we were never close. My younger brother is being a complete asshole, he is starting to remind me very much of our mother in his behaviour, he's emotionally manipulative, selfish and ungrateful, too. I am just so fed up with him and his recent attitude toward me (all sorts of BS comments bc I refused to talk to mother on her deathbed). :(
