Happy Friday Girls!

I don't know whats up with me but I've been waking up early enough to have time to get this started for us before I go to work :) I hope everyone is having a good morning! My temp today moved my coverline which means I'm back to 3dpo. Whats one more day, right?

I've got to get going but will check back later to catch up on everyone.

(((hugs)))

Jen, I think "Nutti Nancy" has tried using OPK's as HPT's. Unfortunately, I don't think it worked for her. On the other hand, I do remember seeing posts from women where it did work. So, with that, I probably confused you more then anything eles! :o)

I'm with ya girl! I'm totally trying not to obsess over symptoms. I had myself all worked up last month, only to find out that all my symptoms were either in my head OR just normal PMS stuff.

Hey Heather...

Oops...I meant to say CD6, not 6dpo! :) Wishful thinking I guess!

Lisa, stop freting girl! To be honest, everything I've read in TCOYF says that the temps just need to be ABOVE coverline for 18 days or more to get a BFP! It says nothing about temps being above your "norm". As far as your temp shooting up in the 100 range.....that's probably just a fluctuation in progesterone...nothing to read into. Remember to THINK POSITIVE!!

I'm sending all the ((((((take control of your emotions)))))) that I can muster up! I've only been TTC for 2 cycles now, so fortunately, I'm not having problems with seeing or being around anyone pregnant. I really feel for those of you who struggle with that. I am finding that I'm noticing tons of pregnant women now though....go figure. Another thing I constantly do now is wonder to myself when I see someone pregnant if they were REALLY trying or it "just happened". I guess I'm weird......

Be cool!

Well, just went to the bathroom, and seems I have the same problem Heather had yesterday with the "finger", but I am having slightly pink/lightbrown CM internally. Did the final wipe, and some is making it to the TP, not sure if it's enough to make it to panty. I'll have to check after while to see what it does. It did the same things last cycle. I'm really feeling bummed now. AF is due Mon. or Tues. Seems slightly early. I guess we'll see.

LOL Thanks, I think? I do have the BIG brown eyes with dark hair and olive complexion. I also look ALOT like my brothers and sisters so I guess I belong here in Louisiana huh? Thanks for taking a look and I'll take your and Anne's comments as a compliment... I love being from here (even if we have the worse roads... the drive thru daiquiri factories make it all worthwhile)

((hugs))

Thanks Heather! But I've got a lot more weight to lose!!! I had gained over 60 pounds three years ago when I had to take really high doses of Prednisone because of my lupus. My friend who had been on it before warned me about weight gain, but I was like...No...I won't let myself gain more weight. Yeah...I ate those words! :)

And then after DH and were married...we cooked a lot and ATE! My typical dinner of a bowl of cereal when I was single turned into FULL meals! So...I'm now trying to fix all the damage! LOL! (and between the stress of TTC, snacking too much on "legal" treats, and taking Clomid...the weight is NOT budging right now)...

I'll get DH to see if he can figure out how to make our video camera take pictures...and try to get some updated pictures this weekend. (We lost our digital camera on our trip to San Antonio last month and have not replaced it yet)... :(

Hey all! Sorry I am lat etoday. I always will be on Fridays though, just so you know. I am glad to see everyone is ok. I woke up in the middle of the night wioth the WORST feeling in the world. You know the kind that makes you want to throw up and cry and you feel like you are just full of hormones? Thats what I had, I thought for sure I was going to get AF but I didnt. I shoudnt until sunday at the earliest anyway, but I sure felt like I would. Was bloated this morning like I would, but I didnt, so who knows. Also have sore nipples still, but only when touched. I am hoping that its a good sign, but who knows!?

I will check back in if i can!
