Yeah, if she knows what's good for her, she won't show.  She really does ruin everything though, doesn't she? Anyway, glad to see you're on the positive side.  A difficult place to be while you're waiting anxiously, but I just have this feeling like you guys are going to be blessed real soon.  :)

Welcome aboard to the new girls hope god answers your prayers soon.

Charliegirl - what's the news tell me u didnt get ur period i'm anxious to know u have to keep us up to date.

Tarajanes - it's gonna be the best christmas i'm keeping my fingers crossed 4 u

Palanaki - I feel the same way u do. I do things and say things that i'm like who is this girl sometimes cause it's not me  lol  oohh and i forget thigs a lot. I was hearing my mom's voicemail the other day and it was on the speaker i forgot that it's a message so i was actually talking to her - the voicemail   lol (i laughed so hard afterwards couldn't belive it) so there u go something to laugh about today.

I know this may sound weird, but there is a lot to be said about stress levels.  My advice really would be to meditate.  Told you it sounded weird, but it has worked for many people.  It helps relax your body so it can work at its optimal level.  Also visualizing your pregnancy helps.  Good luck to all of you!

Hey ladies I'm a little late today getting on the site site, but I'm here now. Funny thing happen, my husband had to gave sperm 2day you should have seen his face when I told him LOL. The doctor not only wanted 2 make sure I'm good she's making sure he's good 2, she said that it's common for a man to go from having kids to shooting blanks & his daughter is five now. I have to go in 2mmorrow for them to retake my blood, then after that i think we'll be done with all the testing to get prepared. I meditate sometimes to not alot.  

Hey tarajanes how are you 2day, have any good news yet.
Charliegirl haven't heard from you in awhile, don't forget about us LOL.
Hey sc1 & palanaki hope you ladies are doing good.

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been on, just confused. Af was due up until Tuesday, tested on MOnday and got a Negative but still no AF. Usually when I get a negative that late in my cycle, it means AF is just late so I'm already disappointed and waiting for AF. I'll bet she starts in a couple of days max. This has happened to me before.

I don't have any tangible pregnancy symptoms either so not hopeful.

Glad to hear everyone is doing well. Tarajanes, it may be too early for boobie changes.

Anyhow, I've decided I'm taking a break from TTC for a while, need to, I'm too exhausted from thinking about it 24 hours a day.

Good luck to all. BABY DUST!!

To: CharlieGirl
I was definitely sensing your growing frustration.  And I don't blame you for taking a break, as long as you're not giving up.  But I truly believe that tarajanes right: that's when it'll happen.  I hope that you take time to really relax and focus on yourself and things that you enjoy.  And of course, getting tanked on Christmas is a must. :)  Please know that we're still here for that supportive boost, no matter what.  

Stupid AF, she just doesn't get the fact that she's not welcome.  Grrrrrrr!!!!!

Lots of hugs and best wishes being sent your way!

Good Morning All!  Hope that everyone is doing well.

sc1: Your story about you talking to your voicemail was hilarious.  I have done similar things, and my husband thinks that it's all so funny.  But lately, I've been having these really horrible, vivid dreams, so real that when I wake up it takes me a minute or two to realize that it was just a dream.  That's my new thing.  I guess that's how I know my hormones are working, huh?

Okay, so I just had a check-up and everything is fine.  Baby's heart rate and growth are right on target.  And I go in on Jan 8th to find out what we're having.  Or as my doctor puts it, what "style" we're having.  She's a crack-up.  

I hope you all are ready for the holidays.  I'm ashamed to say that I am not.  I still have so much shopping to do, talk about procrastination.  And we're planning to have a New Year's Even party, don't even ask how I thought I could manage that.  I'm still not sure.  

Have a lovely day, my dear posting buddies!

To: palanaki & tarajanes
Thank you for your kind words. have a great holiday! Yes, I'll be getting tanked!

by sc1, Dec 20, 2007 12:08PM
Hello everyone lets not panic; I'm in the same shoes Palanaki i have sooo much shopping to do but i'm trying to not let it get to me. I'm going to be home from work till Jan 2nd so i figured that i will do everything that i need to do early next week.  New Years Eve party will be so much fun i'm thinking of doing it in my house too but i don't know if i can manage to host, cook, etc...
Oh how exciting that on the 8th u'll knw the style that's cute never heard of that.

CharlieGirl - I completely know what u're going through; just relax enjoy the season and take it a day at a time. I still think there's a chance don't give up yet i had no symptoms other than my burping remember lol so i'm still cheering u on because i think there's a great chance that u may be preggo. Remember at times the hormone doenst show up in your system that fast sooo i have a positive outlook on the fact that u're late and still no sign of it wwwwooo hoooo

Tarajanes - is ur cold gone how r u feeling?

Richeygirl - good luck with everything

Hey sc1, nice to hear from you! Don't you dare host, not a time for you to be slaving away.. you never can be too sure how you're gonna feel right?

I myself am hosting x-mas eve on Monday so I have a lot of prep work to do and I am so stressed about it!

I'll report on when I get af. Thanks for your hopeful thoughts! Take care of yourself!

Just wanted to pop in and wish everyone happy holidays before I get too busy today! I gather I'll have a lot to warp up so it's best I do this now.

AF still feels like she is just about to start so I am still waiting and waiting and waiting! I won't even bother testing until I'm like 40 days!

Anyway God bless! Enjoy your holiday!

Peace!
