    Everything crossed for you that you get a bfp. What a great bday present that would be for your mom.

    Nice guilty pleasure. I love to read in bed myself. I'll have to add chocolate to the mix. That would make it even more amazing.

    Samjen - Hope you are doing well today!

    ZAngel - How are you this week lady? Do you feel like your timing has been good? Hopefully you will see CH?s in the next day or two.

    I have no idea what is going on with my chart.  Everything has been so strange this cycle.  My chart is now showing that I'm 5dpo although my post O temps are a lot lower than usual.  I'm just not sure what is happening.  I kinda wish I could just end this cycle and start a new one.  Can I get a do over? :lol:

    Favorite guilty pleasure - Chocolate brownies... actually, just chocolate in general.

    I'm doing okay, just trying to focus on work and get caught up. DH and I finally talked on Monday and we both have things we need to work on, but we're much better.  

    As for my cycle, I'm officially a week late on my period,  but still getting BFN's.  With this potential new job on the horizon it would probably be better for me to not be KU right now since I wouldn't have health insurance right away and what not.  So if I am indeed out this cycle, which I think I am, we will probably TTA or NTNP for awhile in case I do get this job.

    ~*~All AL Welcome~*~


  • EDD last week was hard. Held it together at work and then went home to down a bottle of wine with dh and cried lots of tears.

    It is actually worth giving in to the misery so healing/regrouping can start.

    Waiting on AF. She is 5 days late. Tons of CM, high temps blah blah blah. So crazy that I actually tested this morning. BFN of course. My cycle may just be longer than usual after the c/p last cycle. I need AF to come so I get some additional tests done!

    I'm so glad you and DH talked and that you are working on things. That's great to hear. Any more news about the job yet? I really hope this works out for you. It's nice that this came along so that you won't feel too disappointed if you aren't KU this cycle. Although, I'm still stalking your chart and would love to see a BFP this month.

  • I just want to give a big general (((hug))) to everyone on this check in. We all seem to be in a unique place on this journey right now especially with us all experiencing an edd this month - it definitely brings up a lot of emotions (and unwanted newborn mail solicitations!) I'm just so thankful to have all of you and your support so we don't feel alone nor crazy :)

  • Thanks for running the checkin samjen, how are you?

    I am okay for the most part, I guess. Honestly I feel awful. I can't wait for this EDD to be over with. I didn't expect it to be as hard as it is right now.
    I am still waiting for AF to show her face not bothering with keeping track or charting since I am benched for 6 months. Just hoping it flies by and my appointment Tuesday will bring some answers.

    ETA sorry about the quick responce ladies. It is my first day bat my new job and I am just checking when I have free time. Hope everyone is well and I will be back to give support as soon as able.

    Thanks for running the check in. Sorry I am getting on the bump late tonight (it was a busy day at work followed by happy hour). I am going to spend some of Saturday planting a few flowers to put out on our deck. I am going to play the rest of the day as it comes. I have come to terms with my loss but still think about the what ifs frequently. My husband will be gone on that morning so I will have a little time to myself be sad. Other than that I am just trying to remain hopeful for the future.

    My guilty pleasure: I love cake batter ice cream from Coldstone! I also love watching reruns of Friends and Greys Anatomy.
