[TTC5]

You will be holding that baby of yours in no time Jen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Alexis - happy birthday to your little one! I hope you ate the cake and ice cream, one slip won't hurt.

Cemas - vent away darlin', we all get jaded by this process and it feels better to gripe to those that get it.

Kris -woohoo for the 2ww but so sorry Sarah, hope she's back on her feet soon.

14 pages I had to go back! Glad you liked the pics, before the m/c seeing new little faces kept me so excited and hopeful when ttc. She's such a sweet baby, took the girls to visit her today. They lost they're little minds, they love her so much and she's not even ours lol My friend is doing well, lots of pain killers and the plan is to release her Monday. I did great, less affected then I thought but not actually seeing her be born kept a lot of the emotion at bay. I don't know about you ladies but I can't even watch a birth on tv (real not dramatized) without crying so not seeing that kept me excited instead of crazy emotional. Sitting there snuggling her makes me really really hope this baby hangs around. Don't get me wrong I always wanted that but holding that sweet baby punched a few holes in the wall I've put up.
Thanks for your support on my detachment, I've been keeping it to myself because it makes me feel selfish. You ladies are struggling to get preg and here I am not really excited and just hoping I'll still be preg tomorrow. I'm hoping my Thursday appt helps but I doubt it will. Last time all was well at 10 wks, hell as far as I knew all was well at 12wks 6 days. Anyway I love the support here, keeps me calmer and with a little hope that I will actually end up with a baby this time. So tired, off to bed.

Don't think twice about feeling guilty about complaining, I totally understand!

I think it's best at times to not know the gender until baby's born because you surely arent disappointed once you see that little face

ITA, but there is no way my DH could wait that long. I'm going to try and talk him around next time but I don't like my chances.

My Ovulation Chart I think this is the link...check it out for yourself my first one was more noticable 10dpo- late Bfp 2nd one 8dpo 12 dpo bfp.....less of a 'dip though..........

I am trying not to get too excited myself as I have noticed on both my preggo charts I got massive temp jumps about 4/5dpo.......I don't 'normally' get such a big one and this month I have too probably means nothing but...

Looking good Good luck! When are you testing?

[Plum3]

Yep, Cemas, I agree....just start going for it. (There needs to be a humping icon to insert in instances like this.)

3pnb, WHAT A CUTE BABY! ITA with Babydes and all about not finding out now. Things like cute pics of baby girls always get me. I saw a cute couple with 3 girls today and it made me smile.

Will check in later, ladies, out to have some red wine with a girlfriend. It's a part of my, uh, sway.

Hope you enjoyed that swaying wine!

You would give up on ttc if you had thyroid issues? It's really just a small pill every day and finding the right dosage which you would need to do anyway. Once you get it sorted out there are no issues of ttc. I've been on it for a couple of weeks and had a normal cycle. The proof will be next time I O, but things are better already and it's safe to take w/ pregnant and nursing. GL to you!

I just feel so old! I think any bump along the way is a "sign" that I should stop now and not have anymore children. I hope you are right and it is not too bad or too long to treat. I have been reading information from this site http://www.thyroid.org.au/Information/Conditions.html and maybe getting myself a bit scared. Anyway test results are due on wednesday so will start worrying or not then.

Love the pics 3Pink she is soooo beautiful. You will hold yours in your arms too very soon. After my 2 m/c I also felt detached it was not until the 12 week scan that I actually said to myself Ok it is now time for you to start getting attached to this bub. So I will say the same to you now. The scan will help I am sure when you see those beautiful arms, legs flapping around as if trying to hug you already, you will not be able to help yourself...

3Pink- You have every right to feel the way you do- it's not without reason either- hopefully given time it will change xo

Bec- My husband would not wait either we will find out for sure at 19 weeks...as for me testing I am 9dpo tomorrow trying to resist I know it will be BFN even if I am preggo i just don't test positive that early......I will see what happens in the morning though might have to do it anyway...

Layla- hope the test results are good news... let us know.

TTC5- your chart looks good can't wait to see what happens when you test again...I assume you will test tomorrow?

Babydes- hope that sex drive finds you soon LOL

Sorry if I have missed anyone- I have been staying away a bit hoping the 2ww will go a bit quicker....... But I just know the last week of it is going to crawl by regardless so I might as well obsess! LOL

[babydes56]

I would go insane w/ my DH gone like that and in the beginning of a pregnancy, ouch. You're a good woman!!

He has to work & that's the job he had at the time i fell preg so he had no choice, he's a very good man too

[cemas]
