Pinkster,

I was a tad emotional this morning to say the least :P I'm feeling much better. I believe God does have a plan so if it was in the plans for her and not me, God must have a reason!
Thanks for the pep talk.

I'm soooo hoping that you bb's are just getting ready for a baby! I have a feeling your time is coming!

And I actually work at a clinic with the army, not quite a nurse yet but will be soon. I rotate through the lab and primary care. But blood is my thing hehe.

As always, Happy baby making everyone!

Morning baby makers,

Yea it's tough when people have kids they don't want or they get abortions when you are trying so hard to conceive . Life at times are not fair , i do agree. I went through that phase too f just wanting to know why. Like it's not fair that a person can have kids they don't want and have as many abortions as they want yet still get pregnant with no problem. All I can say is there is a world bigger than we know that we have to believe in. We will never understand or know why. We just have to trust God and know that he knows what he is doing. Of coarse months ago I fell short to believe that myself , but even with the largest doubt comes the smallest amount of faith and all we need is the size of a mustard seed to please God.

Hi everyone, and I mean everyone (age is not important)
Welcome to new ladies.
Pink, maybe you ovulated earlier, with all those positive opk' s it could have happened sooner. The dark nipples are fed a sign of pregnancy but I'm not sure what effect clomid has. They say it can give pregnancy symptoms but don't mention what ones. Maybe you should start a thread for clomid symptoms? Would be interesting to read.
CD3 for me, put my temps into 3 other sites and they all say I ovulated around CD13 last month. For some reason my coverline on here seems to be way too high, can't find out how it's worked out here.
Will give iso another try this month but if my cycle doesn't settle then I'm stopping it and going back to vitex.

I don't believe you have to please 'a god' as such as I am very spiritual and believe it depends where your born what type of religion you may or may not have and what type of god/spirit/creator you will believe in, I embrace the positive of any religion and dismiss any that create wars and problems, I do believe in Karma and treat others how you wish to be treated, you know if you are a good person and when your not so its up to each individual what choice they make, I know I am a good person and not done anything negative towards another that I regret, that is my faith

MrsD - God bless you for posting such a spirtual and inspirational message. I love you for that! :)

39andcounting - we are close in cycle. ATM - I am on CD4 and I believe you are on CD7, correct? I am ready to get on with it already! LOL

Sooo silly story... I had been seeing a specialist and had undergone a few IUI's with no success. I was recently cleaning out my bedroom (you know the corner where you may just throw some things?!) and I found an unopened box containing a cycle worth of Gonal-F injections. LOL Nothing has expired and it hadn't been mixed so I'm thinking about trying just the injections next month. I only thought I had one bottle left and used it in Dec. with no luck, but who knows maybe next month will be my month. Hey, my insurance already covered for it so why not? Silly me.

I don't know about you ladies, but I'm ready for Spring! This up and down then up again weather is just killer for my headaches... I am a human barometer that way. I live in Ohio so I should be used to it by now.

Sending many prayers for everyone here! XOXO

For those who asked for my update, I am officially 5 weeks today! Had bloodwork done and all my levels are on track and look great. I am learning more stuff about hormones and appropriate levels than I ever cared to know, but its all fun. Waiting for a doctor to comment on my age (38) but hasnt happened yet so I am happy about that!
Wishing everyone a lovely weekend, and I hope everyone gets their BFP asap!!! --Heather

Lovely to hear from you HDC -x-

Happy Friday everyone! I have been very busy and all my attempts at early testing have been thwarted...currently 13dpo, and will test tomorrow, so happy thoughts, prayers, and sticky vibes please! HDC - hope I end up just a week behind you :-) as for symptoms, everything is pretty mild, hot flashes (but these crazy weather changes could make anybody have them), a little nausea (but started new PNV that I have to take in the morning and at night, so could explain it), and a headache today (but mild and could relate to the extremely disrupted sleep I had last night). And so I will wait.

The reason I am sleep deprived and unable to test could not be better though because my sister gave birth to a baby girl 2 nights ago and I jumped in my car and drove 4 hours to help her with the baby. This is her 4th ()#1 and 2 she had young and then a ten year break before #3 and now 4). So I have been privileged to be there in the first weeks of each of their lives. And I am the best aunt ever to now 14 nieces and nephews (I am one of 5 girls (2 older and 2 younger) and the only one without kids). I have already fallen in love with this little girl, but do so hope DH and I can be parents as well. And the ache is that much greater holding this precious little girl.

Here's hoping we all do not have long to wait!!!

Happy days
Your symptoms sound like the ones I have and still having. Let us know about the test.

Hi everyone,

Just got back from my progesterone test. Should have results in a few days. 7dpo today, no symptoms what so ever other than mild cramping yesterday but I had that last cycle too before I started spotting :(((

Pink, I don't think the clomid has effect on the syptoms so this may be a great sign. The way my doc explained to me was that it's completely out of your system by the time you ovulate.

Kerzie, for every herb and supplement I've researched they say it usually takes at least 3 months to take affect. As you know my first cycle on vitex was "wacky" yet to see this one, but I will wait for full 3 months. Just thinking maybe that's what happened with yours on the last one ????

Audnaz, good luck with your ultrasound and keep us posted.

HDC - happy to hear your doing wonderful. I'm sure it'll just keep on getting more exciting from here on

Happy, I commend you for not giving in and testing with all these symptoms. Yours sound like MrsD's before she got her bfp.
I too am the only one in my family without a child. My younger brother has a beautiful girl without trying. Sometimes I feel the pressure from them even though they don't realize but they're always asking when we will give their daughter a little cousin. If they only knew...

Everyone else lots of and
