Hi ladies! A few of us who supported eachother in the tww leading up to Sept 5 wanted to continue the encouragement and support we felt at the end of Aug - beginning of Sept.
A few of us got a BFP (yay!) and a few of us are gearing up for POAS again (OPKs). Check in regularly so we can all celebrate the joys and support each other through the harder times.

Hey ladies, sorry I haven't been updating much..busy week with my kids at school. I will start testing on Saturday and I will keep you updated!!
Torontochick, I am soo sorry!!!
Dragonflymamma, this is a good place to come for comfort! You are in my thoughts!
Jennybobenny, I have been very crampy, some definite changes in CM-a lot and it is creamy, which I don't usually get a lot of, other than that trying not to symptom spot too much after my last cycle!! lol

hey guys
it's been a while, but i'm back. it seems that this pregnancy was not meant to be and i miscarried at 6w2d (doc said levels were consistent with around 5wks). so in an effort to stay positive, i'm back on this site and eager to try again once i get the ok from the doc. not sure when that will be, but just thought i'd say 'hi' now. i'm sorry to everyone that's still here looking for their BFP, but i'm glad at least that there are still some familiar people around.
all the best to you guys!

Oh Elizabeth, I am so so sorry. I know there is nothing I can say to make it better, but just know that you're not alone. I miscarried in July at around 5 weeks, and it was one of the most difficult times I've ever had, but I'm holding on to hope that there is another baby in my future. ((hugs))

Oh Elizabeth I am SO SORRY!!! ((hugs)) That just sucks all around! Love and stuff... we're here for you!
Gray did you test yesterday? Anything?
Dragonfly... how's that cycle going?
AFM: symptom spotting again... 8dpo and I had the hip thing a few days ago but only for the one day (thank god). My temp dropped a bit on 5dpo and I had a killer headache all day - ended up going home early. And starting Friday afternoon/evening (at 6dpo) and it is continuing if not getting worse... my nipples are SUPER sensitive and sore! I could be totally hot and still have porn star nipples! And any kind of brush by them and it kills. Even when they're not being touched, they have a constant achy feeling... like someone just twisted them. My best friend is very excited about this because she says it's a total sign. I guess we'll see. :)
Hugs to you all! Happy Halloween!

Elizabeth I am soo so so sorry!
Jennybobenny, How are you feeling? I feel awful. I have a sore throat, stuffy nose, cramps and my boobs hurt bad!! I had sharp pains off and on last Sunday, cycle day 18 thinking it might have been implantation (wishful thinking? lol) but in retrospect, after looking and my chart and CM i've been tracking, I think maybe I was ovulating. So that would only make me about 8 DPO. So far only BFN's but still no AF either, which leads me to believe I am correct with ovulating maybe a few days later. We shall see....waiting until Wednesday to test again.
dragonfly, any updates? How are you doing?

Last time I wrote, all frustrated about my messed up cycle, was CD 47. Looks like I ovulated on CD 48. :) That's still messed up, but at least I ovulated! I never got a positive OPK, but I felt strong ovulation pain that evening and then had a good temperature rise. So...now I'm 5DPO and waiting.
gray and jenny..excited to hear test results! Fingers crossed for you both! :)

I'm gonig to start testing tomorrow even though I'm not really expecting to see a BFP. I'm surprised I haven't tested yet - I have a zillion tests staring at me!
Nips are still sensitive. Not quite as sore as the other days this weekend, but still very tender.
My mood today was swingy. I totally lost it after a bit of a disagreement with a coworker. My boss laughed at me and suggested I come to temple with him to chant (he's buddhist). ha.ha. I told him I'm hormonal and he was all "really?! Are you really?!" giddy like and excited. LOL fyi: he knows my journey as a wanna be mom and is totally supportive.
But since it was halloween and half the office was dressing up and we had a bit of a party, my mood was also good. LOL Like I said... swingy. :)
My rib cage is a little sore today. Happened suddenly when I was at the store this morning and the pain has continued off and on all day. Not a pulled muscle feeling or anything... more like my ribs are being stretched open or something. Very strange. Relaxin perhaps?
Gray you might be right about the ovulation. I get definite twangs when I ovulate. Fingers are still crossed!
