So I have 4 minutes until my next meeting. So I will just write quickly. Amanda, I hope you feel better soon. My old job was so stressful, I used to get so irritated about having to see all my husbands family when I was down. It is hard to be happy when your not to put on a show. If there is something you love, like taking a bath, or getting your nails done. Do it TONIGHT! It may help. Keri- I am in VT so I understand your love of the cold! HAHA! Yes I was born in the 80s and wanted to write NOT after that...but I refrained. I have to call into a meeting so I have to go...but Baby dust to all...and I hope I hear there are more HTP and OPK Pos over the weekend! Baby dust!!!!!

[Mamadecuatro]

Good afternoon, Ladies! I'll try to remember everyones' posts...but please forgive me if I dont...

Luckii!!!!!!! Yay!!!!! I am so happy and relieved for you! This is sooo exciting. I hope you can relax and enjoy the rest of a healthy, full term pregnancy.

Amanda-I am really sorry you're feeling down. I am there with you right now. I hate feeling that way too! Spring is coming, and with it, lots of BFP's for everyone (but me!

Keri- You feeling any better? I think constant nausea is the worst (other than puking your guts out) It always hit me at around six weeks and stayed until six months!

Mum- Congrats on your 'O'ing! Cant wait to hear the results in a couple weeks

Excited- Still hangin in there? No AF? Yay!

Who said they were turning 30? I think its great! The older I get, more I've gotten to know myself and (hopefully) become a better mother and wife and person! I dont mind the aging as much as the feeling older!!! I'll be 29 in May. So far, my hardest birthday was turning 20. I realized I wasnt ever going to be a teenager again, ever! It was really devastating for me..and I had just found out I was pregnant. I think that made the reality sink in even more! Oh well, its turned out okay!!

I started my cycle today. And to be honest, I couldnt be more relieved. My husband and I got into SEVERAL huge arguements yesterday and it all came down to him not wanting anymore children. So I guess we will not be having more children...we weren't TTC this month, but were planning on it after may or june. So now I'm confused and kinda mad. He accused me of trying to get pregnant behind his back. Seriously? Am I a 13yr old that wants to play babydolls? I have four kids and I wasnt the one who brought up a fifth in the first place? And why the heck would I do something that would add another stress to our marriage? I would NEVER want to add to our family unless we were in complete unity about it. Otherwise I would be worried he's holding bitterness and not supporting me...not good, not good. One year ago, we had scheduled for him to get a vasectomy. He was 200% done w kids. I was on the fence because I was still young and a 'v' is soo permanent. Its wasnt that I wanted more, or even more right then, just that I didnt want to rush into a decision like that if we were going to regret it. BUT I didnt say anything. I encouraged him and told him it was his decision. So he talked with the dr, scheduled the appts, blah, blah, blah. I just prayed that if it wasnt the right time for that to happen, he would really have a change of heart. SO, one morning he comes running down the stairs telling me he WASNT getting the vasectomy, he all really felt like we were going to have one more baby, he was really excited...it was like a different person talking to me. I didnt want to rush into it...Anyway I dont know...Sorry this is so long. I hate it when we fight and I feel like there was no resolution to the other things brought up. I feel like crap. I know it will be better, sooner than later, I hope. WHy is marriage so hard sometimes?

Oh, and Keri, I was going to tell you, my mom grew up in Traverse City (do you know where that is? up north) I went there almost every spring for their cherry festival. So do you have a lovely northern accent?

[APEMBERTON]

Tara- thanks for the support!!! Hope the meetings go well!!

Mama- Rant..Rant..Rant...that's what I have been doing today!! I so feel you about the marriage thing!!! I love my SO to death & he is AWESOME..but we do have our days!!! We have been doing much better lately,but it is HARD work ALOT of days!!! Sometimes I just don't understand why it is so hard & why we have such a hard time communicating!!! I am glad AF showed up if you wanted her to though!! Maybe he was just having a bad day!! I am guilty of saying " Maybe we shouldn't have kids or get married"... Horrible I know, but sometimes in the moment that is how I feel!!! That is rare though!!! I am sorry everything isn't going great your way!!! **HUGS*** your way & maybe over the weekend we will both have better days & come back Monday alot happier!!!

[APEMBERTON]

Happy weekend everybody!!!

Mobile sperm & fertile eggs!!!
Baby dust to all!!!
No af no af!!!!

[Kerisweetpea]

mama- yeah i hate being nauseous! i was this was with Caleb too! i think it lasted until 2nd trimester so i guess thats not that bad? oh yeah i know where traverse city is, my SIL got married up there! and i went up there a couple of times to have my surgery, cause they have the best heart surgeons in Michigan! oh and i guess i didnt know us northerners have an accent? but i prolly dont i grew up in Monroe which is down by ohio. so im not a true northerner! but a true Michigander!lol!
im sorry you guys arent having any more children but it does have to be a 2 person decision, so i am glad AF came for you today. but you never know he may change his mind later on? i know my DH changes his mind all the time, even on the baby discussion! i tell him its to late! to bad its gonna happen! stupid men! i hope it gets better for you, and i would like to know why marriage is so hard too??

so i hope everyone has a good weekend
and TONS of baby dust for you guys that are BDing soon!!!

[momofnone]

Hello Everyone!!!

Mama - It is hard sometimes with the communication with the DH.....I swear they say we are bad but they can be more emotional than we are....with them changing all their minds all the time.

Sorry I haven't written, work has really started to pick up so I have just been trying to survive!!!

T-minus one day until game on for the baby dancing!!!!

BABY DUST TO ALL!!!!

[excited4mommyhood]

I know it's very late -- I hope everyone is sleeping well LOL!!!

Keri -- I'm not sure what exactly I posted, but my birthday is April, and I'm 28, will be 29 on April 17th. I must not have been clear - I was talking about my 30th birthday, NEXT year, 2010 I'm sorry that you're feeling nauseous, and that your DH is sometimes a pain LOL -- that's just MEN for you!!!

Mama -- I'm just 1 month older than you LOL -- turning 29 in April. And it really sucks that you and your DH are fighting, it's so upsetting! My hubby and I argued about TTC for about 13 months: I was ready, he wasn't, nothing huge, just regular discussions that got heated and turned into arguments...and it sucked BIG time! That's why I was so guns ablaze this cycle, I was so stoked that we were on the same page FINALLY! Maybe he will change his mind AGAIN, you never know! My thoughts are with you tonight...be well

Amanda -- Your SO sounds like a really great guy - you are lucky! But you're right, they just don't get it - my DH sometimes doesn't even wanna talk about it!

Mandi -- Feeling well? I'm still so THRILLED for you!

On my end, AF still hasn't arrived. I'm still pretty convinced that I am NOT in fact pregnant, BUT the ***** has been on time for me for the past 5 months, not a day early or late, 30 days on the dot. My breasts are super sore (sometimes a pms symptom of mine, sometimes not), I have had some INSANE dreams, and I have some cramping that doesn't feel exactly like regular AF cramps for me. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to be preggo this time around (and it would of course support my husband's feelings that he has SUPER SPERM lol) but I have already seen a BFN. So, in order to keep myself from getting too excited and then more intensely disappointed, I'm going to wait until at LEAST Sunday if not Monday or Tuesday before I test again...

Sweet dreams, ladies, talk to you sometime this weekend or on Monday - Good night and Happy Weekend -- BABYDUST!!!

Hello Ladies!

Sorry I haven't posted recently. It has been super busy for me the last couple of days.

Maria I am sorry that you and DH are not getting along. It happens and your right marriage is hard. If I knew the reason, I would spread it around. lol! DH and I usually have one sided arguments because he refuses to argue with me which makes me more mad. I am glad that AF came if that is what you want and in time things may change. You may end up Mamadecinco!

Amanda, I understand 100%. I mentioned to my older sister that I came off BC in Dec. and we were not trying but not actually preventing and I got the third degree! I was so upset with her I couldn't stand it. She is an nurse in the OB department of a hospital. I know she just wants whats best but still. I am not totally ignorant. Anywho! My mom just knows that I am not preventing. If it happens, it happens. But for sanity, I am glad that I found you guys on here.

Tara, I have been charting for a month and half now. This month is the first month that I used an OPK. I do not think that I will use the First Response ones again because it is hard to compare colors and shades of pink. I believe I will just pay the extra money for the Clear Blue Digital. I understand happy and sad faces LOL!!

Mandi! I am so excited for you. I prayed really hard that everything was going to be okay and it is!! Here is to a happy and healthy pregnancy!! Keep us updated!!

Tori I have my fingers still crossed. Many people do not have symptoms so I wouldn't count you out just yet!! I will be looking forward to the test results and no matter what I will be here for you!

Keri, I must say that not liking cheese cake isn't all that weird but I love it. I wouldn't say it is my favorite but I like the silky smoothness. I am sorry that you are so tired but at the same time so excited because you are tired for TWO!!

Julie you BD away!! I have for the past two nights! LOL!! I think I am wearing my DH out. He is not used to all of this!!

Well for me. My throat is still a little sore and this morning I woke up with a stuffy nose. I am also a little upset as well. I have been doing my temps and POAS for OPK religiously and I cannot tell when I had my LH surge. I have had faint double lines since Thursday and again this morning but nothing like the box said would be a LH surge. We BD Thursday and Friday just in case because mymonthlycycles says I am suppose to O today but I fill no O pains. I felt them Thursday and Friday. I know for sure on Thursday but not so sure for Friday(don't have the chart in front of me!). So now I am worried that I missed something and my chart hasn't told me if and when I O'ed. I am CD14 so maybe it is a little early for that but I am nervous. I just want a baby so bad because I finally found the right person and the love of my life to have them with. It is heartbreaking when I see him hold my niece or a friends baby and think I don't know if I can give you one!

Okay so I am done and feel better!! Thank you for listening!!
