I didn't know if we're still doing this or not since no one's posted since last Thursday, but I thought I'd say hi to everyone anyway. How are you all doing? I'm on CD9 waiting to O and having major hot flashes from clomid. Actually I've been constantly hot since the 2nd day I took it. Anything new going on with anyone?
Jen

Nothing new here. I am waiting to O as well. I dont know when I will, I have kinds been slacking on my timing. I never charted before, but I atleast marked dates on the calendar. I am just not trying hard this month because if I do get pregnant then I will be due around the time I am supose to be in my best friends wedding. That could be disasterous. I need a break anyway...school is draining me and I dont need more to think about. Know what I mean? Anyway, I hope you have a great day and I hope to see you later on this afternnon.

I think we are still doing this...as long as there is at least one person other than me who wants to! LOL! I think there are a few reasons things have slacked off...weekends tend to be slower in general. Also, a lot of you guys just got visited from AF...and I know I tend to be a bit less talkative on here during that time....
Anyway...thanks for getting us started today.
I'm now 6dpo and my chart is looking really good! http://circles2.fertilityfriend.com/home/240a9
I SO want to finally get my BFP...Thankfully, the Clomid has not been too bad. I have cried really easily lately. The other day, in the middle of a BD (Sorry, TMI) I got a BAD cramp in my leg. Well...I sobbed like I'd lost my best friend! It really concerned DH. I don't know what got in to me, but I just lost it! Pretty strange... Yesterday I had some strange sensations in my stomach... kept hoping and praying it was implantation. But really, no IPS/RPS for me yet.
Sorry about your hot flashes, Jen. I've never experienced those, but I hear they are really uncomfortable.
Hang in there with school Oli...I know it can be pretty stressful!
Well...it is my day off, and I'm going to run some errands! Hope everyone has a great day!
Take care,
Anne

Take it easy girl!

Anne, I've been keeping you in my prayers. I'm really hoping that this month will be the one! It would be so neat if one of us (or more) would graduate. I think you're the onlyone who is PO....is that right? I know alot of us are waiting to O. Keep thinking BFP's and hopefully that chart of yours will continue to look good.
Take Care Sweetie,
Heather
No new news on the homefront. I'm on CD8 and waiting for the BIG O! I've been charting faithfully and with a few exceptions of taking my temps alittle later/earlier then I should have, things have been going good. I'm fairly lucky with having a pretty consistent and normal cycle, so I'm hoping that it will only be a few more days before the obsessing can begin. *LOL*
Off topic, I don't know about you girls, but this TTC has made me such a "stress eater" which is so not like me. I've been putting absolutely everything and anything in my mouth! I've really got to get a grip on things. I need to lose about 5 (realisticaly 10...but can't if I end up getting pg) pounds this cycle. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do it, but I sure as heck can try! Anyone else want to hop on the weightloss band wagon with me?
Have a great day ya'll!

Yep...I'm definitely doing the "stress eating" thing. Today, DH and I went to the grocery, and I put some sugar free bridge mix in the cart. DH stated he did not really think it was low carb. I responded it was sugar free. Then he started saying something about something in it that made it not a good choice...well, hormonce/stress-crazed me actually almost CRIED! Over bridge mix! And no...my DH is not a nag...he could care less if I lost any more weight...but we have both made commitments to ourselves to stay away from sugar and stay as low carb as possible. Usually I like his help, but today, I deemed him the food police and almost cried! :)
Anyway...I need to stop eating so much. I tend to stress eat "legal" things...but even then, I need more limits!

It's taking me a little longer to find something inspiring to post, must be work (you know they actually want me to work, can you believe it?!). I've recruited the help of a good friend. Here's what she offered on patience:
"But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have we wait for it with patience."
Romans 8:24-25 (NIV)
Since most of us are waiting to O, this may be of some encouragement to not give up and not worry about it. Patience bridges the gap between what you hope for and when it's manifested. We have to stay on the path of faith before we have what we hope for. Doubt or waivering will hinder what we hope for. So stay positive in your faith.
And June-bug babies for all!! :)
