Enbutler i will be 25 in 3 days. My mother started telling me and dh over the summer that we needed to have a baby and even picked out which room would be the baby room in our new house. She also told me when my siter announced she was pregnant with #3 that was hoping i would be the one telling her that. Moms, gotta love their not so subtlty.

athena, i know right?!..lol. This would be my sister's 3rd too. Only problem is that she makes us so nervous when she's prego. Only because she's had about 2 or 3 miscarriages, 2 tubal pregnancies, which resulted in having one of them taken out and she's had an abortion. My 2 nieces are miracles as it is. With the first one, the oldest (9), she was a month premie and was in the NICU for 2 weeks cuz she couldn't breathe on her own and with her youngest (6) she was so stressed in her first trimester that she lost a lot of weight. I just wish it was my time. I really do, but if she is pregnant and her body is able to handle it, i would still be happy for her.

My dh was a premie, he was born at 27 weeks. His mom told me that her body wasn't meant to carry baby, though she did carry his brother to full term. She had a miscarriage before his brother. Dh was in the nicu for a month and his mom didn't meet him for a few days I think. Basically he was killing her and they had to do an emergency c-section. She had almost miscarried him and so they put her on bed rest and gave her something, I think steroids to get him bigger because they knew he was coming early. He was 3 lbs 8 oz which to me seems pretty big for a baby born at 27 weeks, but if you ask his dad he was only a little over a pound. he was def tiny though. They had a bear that was bought for him and it was a little bear but it was bigger than him.

Congrats sowell! 7 dpo did 2 hpts with FMU, nada :(. I am getting a little stab in right lower abdomen as I type this. AF is due on the 17th, so today is still not even time for A FRER. Trying to stay + but ive already convinced myself im not preggo. We danced last night, and I said it will happen when it happens, BF said "whatever" I think he is trying just as hard as I am. I know its still early to get a BFP hoping this pain is implant, but who knows.

Got my blood work results back. Numbers are only 98. But prolly because I'm so early. I'm not worrying. Have to go back Monday and redo blood work to make sure it is going up. Didn't have to do this last time so this is a different experience for me.

WOW I have missed ALOT!! I have been out of town the last week at my in laws house. Phew. so much fun but glad to be home!!

Athena I know what you mean! Everyone is preggers but me! I"m glad you are focusing on you and DH. That will help make a baby too :)

SOWELL!!!!! Wooo!!!!!!

Tara how is it going with the Clomid??? Predicted O??

CutiePieMom you are living my fantasy!! Growing up I always dreamed about just picking up and moving off to my own town and starting my own life!! I wish you the very best!!

Lammy Hows it going??

Enbutler How is it going on the school front??

Hellerman the best advice I can give you is to wait for AF to test. I know that is almost impossible but it will make your stress level a little lower. You'll have 9 months to enjoy being pregnant testing early will only make you crazier (That is what I am telling myself!!)

AFM CD8. Last months luteal phase was much longer which is great even though I hate the witch. Just waiting to O now!!

kcordell - came bang on 28days , dh has his swimmers tested at the end of jan and i got to book my test other then that nothing much lol

Ah sorry about AF but having the tests just means 1 big step closer to that BIG FAT POSITIVE!! However hopefully you'll have to cancel that appointment because your preggers before then.

I took another test.... I then went to the pregnancy test calulator and it said if I O'd when FF said I did. It said:

Taking a Pregnancy Test

If implantation were to occur on the most common day (9 DPO - Dec. 10, 2012) the earliest an early pregnancy test is likely to show a positive result would be: Dec. 12, 2012 to Dec. 14, 2012
hCG (the pregnancy hormone) doubles every 2-3 days during the first several weeks of pregnancy. Give it some time to build up so the test can detect it.

So, there is still hope. A few more days to obsess!
