Hey girls!!
May: I'm so sorry!!

But it's oh-so-normal the way you feel!! It's difficult to be happy for others when you're hurting so much inside. My sister-in-law got pregnant the month of my m/c, and my older sister--whom I love to bits!--just announced she was pregnant with #2 about 2.5 weeks ago--the day that I got my period! I'm so happy for them as I'm sure you are for your bestie, but it definitely hurts! You can't help but ask "When is it going to be my turn?" And it's difficult for people who haven't had miscarriages to understand the battle that goes on inside of us!
Krys and May: I totally understand your decision to skip family reunions! Those are definitely hard to deal with sometimes! Family members aren't shy to pick and probe into sensitive subjects when they don't know what you're going through!
Profwife: Welcome to the tread!!! What kind of prof are you??? At what level and what do you teach?? I'm a student at McGill University, studying to be a high-school English teacher!
Army: that's so cool that you're further along than you thought!!!

I would love to see your ultrasound pic!! Are you going to find out the gender or keep it a surprise??
Sunny: So sorry about all of this waiting and guessing!! I really hope the best for you!! Uncertainty is so hard to live down!! My prayers are with you!
Alley: Girl, you are stinking hilarious!!! I was laughing all evening when I read your soft-cup experience, thanks for sharing!! Reminds me when I was a young teen and got a tampon stuck in there (of course, I was over-seas and at a wedding....)...oh, the joys of being a woman!
AFM: CD 18! Krys, you had asked when I usually ovulate in my cycle, last cycle was the first time I used an OPK and it was + on CD 20...but I have serious doubts about whether or not I even O'ed last month. It was a digital OPK and I had forgotten to take it the day before I got a +. Also, I didn't really feel any O symptoms. This cycle is pretty intense lol! I'm having such horrendous cramps (which I'm guessing is ovulation?), yesterday I had to watch which position I sat in because of the pain! I feel like this is so unjust if this is my most fertile time of month--my cervix is killing me, as you can imagine, it makes BD'ing very unpleasant! Do any of you girls experience painful sex during O??
Blessings to all of you ladies!!
