I have a feeling I may have ovulated TWICE this month... see my thread "help with crazy cycle" lol... I think it may have caused a sudden surge in hormones?

iluvmyman I am so glad you joined our little thread! You definitely bring some great encouragement and perspective, so thank you :-) And too funny ... I could have written the EXACT same thing re: my DD1 and DD2!

Awwww you are too sweet. And to you, I really appreciate you, Begonia. You made me feel so welcome and at home when I was stressin about my sway. I'm so glad you are here and you are super down to earth!

I know I'm a little long winded and I try to be funny....I do get a lot of odd looks though, when I make little cracks in my day to day life. Good thing I don't have to see this groups odd looks when reading my posts, though, and I've yet to get the rollin eye emoticon so I'm feelin pretty good w/ my sarcasm so far here.

I appreciate this forum so much and love the women here. I guess having a lot of drama in your life gives you some perspective.....that, and like several years on most of these girls. LOL!

This is really more a statement for another thread/part of the site but I'm too lazy so I'm going to vent here how much I LOATHE people who, when they find out I have 2 girls and want 1 more baby, say "Oh! You know, we would have had more if we had two of a kind too. But since we got one of each we're done." Like there's a "perfect" family and they have it and I don't. I want to dump my wine glass all over their laps. I don't think people realize how smug they sound about this topic so I don't say anything snarky in return .... but oh how I want to put them in their place!

Ohhhh, it's so nice that your life is so frickin' perfect! You have my permission to b**** slap the next person who says that to you.

Begonia I completely agree with you! My absolute worst comment I cannot stand is whenever someone I know IRL or facebook has a boy/girl family, they call it the million dollar family. It makes my skin crawl. My family is just as amazing with two DDs...it drives me crazy!!!

Iluvmyman...have you POAS yet? I am not sure when I will do it. Trying to wait and see if I miss AF but I dont think I have the
willpower. I am trying to think I am not pregnant so I am not disappointed. Man this was easier when I wasnt tracking everything!!

Good luck to anyone else in 2ww.

Really!? The million Dollar family! who came up with the stupid saying? You can have a "million dollar family" and be miserable. That's so dumb! Why does our society continue to set these unreachable precedents! The people who coined that phrase are probably the same people that think you shouldn't have more than 2-3 children.

Princess, I did POAS a few days ago (BFN) and will POAS in the morning but I really don't think I'll get a BFP. I think tomorrow will be 11dpo. I should start AF on Wed but there is NO WAY I can wait that long. You should POAS in the morning w/ me.

OK Begonia, I know you see right through me. I did POAS this morning (I couldn't help myself) and it's still negative. I'm bummed cuz I don't want to eat the diet anymore. I've been drinking carmel frapps again and I feel guilty either way and I don't want to do the diet again. It's so all consuming for me (everything but the kitchen sink of coarse). I like milk, and sour cream gosh darn it! I wasn't really prepared for this to take longer than a month once we tried.

I really don't know how people do this for so long, but I know i will cuz I really, really want this! Ok, I'm done w/ my fit now. I really doubt I'll get a BFP in the morning.

Hey babydes! Welcome back hun.

HUGS TTC5!! I am so sorry you're having a tough run love. I hope that today feels better for you. FWIW I got all kinds of mad at my DH yesterday and said the same thing about maybe we shouldn't have anymore. And he got pretty upset too. Which is funny b/c a year ago this was all me, wanting a third, and now I'd say it's more him. So I think it really hurt his feelings.

MFC thanks for sharing re: L'arg! I am dropping it. I really liked how regular my cycle was. I haven't had a cycle longer than 28 days in over a year, so this is definitely abnormal for me and since L'arg is the only change (I'd been taking fish oil and EPO for months) I think I'm just not going to do it. FX you get your boy ... ITA that if I have one boy I will wish for one more, just so he could have a brother. But DH is like, NO! THREE! THREE is it! LOL :-)

I hate not knowing when AF will arrive!!! Driving me crazy! We have a ton to do this weekend so I guess I'll just make sure I bring the necessary supplies everywhere we go in case the ol' witch shows up.

Lola I hope you're doing OK sweetheart! Just thinking about you so thought I'd give a shout out :-)

I'm dropping L'arg too!!! Good to hear that the EPO didn't change your cycle I might try it next time ..

Selfish little jerk monkey of a husband. Grrrrrrrrrr. We had a nice talk the other night that ended in tears(mine, not his). He basically told me that he didn't want anymore. That if we had another his life was basically over. All I heard of course was "me me me me me". I don't know what to think or do right now.

I'm sending out tons of blue dust and hugs to everyone, in case I don't pop in for awhile.

How sad I am so sorry girl. I really hope your DH change his mind. Talk to him only in the right time. Take care. ((HUGS))

I can't kick them out unfortunately.. Mum had to leave an abusive relationship and is not doing well at all she has had a breakdown, she has nothing but the suitcase they came with, suffers severe anxiety and depression. It isn't good at all =( We are all they have now and are trying to get her well again.

Wow ..Its hard. You are a good daughter for helping your mom and I hope she can find place soon? What does she plan on doing, 10 people living in the same house I would go crazy. I really hope your mom gets better very soon. XOXO

Make that 11 now, my sister is coming too. that is another long story.
Mum is up and down right now, but I have a few appointments for her with social worker, drs and public housing to help us out.

I'd rather live squashed and have my Mum better in the long run, just a small sacrifice to pay for a woman who spent many years raising me and going without herself.
