TTC 1st child 35+ (Please spoiler any PG news/announcements).

Butterfly,
I love your paintings. I just checked out your website. Thank you for sharing. I love all the color. There is one that looks like a great big sea with breaching whales jumping out of the ocean and twisting in motion. Probably just my imagination seeing that image, but it is such a moving piece.

I also love your name. It is my MILs and when we first met she was so happy that I knew how to spell her name. With an A,not an O. :)

I agree-really beautiful pieces! I read your bio and I really admire your courage. I've been in HR administration for 14 years, but I'm really an artist trapped in the body of a pencil-pushing desk jockey. https://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii269/theogrit/1sm332desk1.gif

I've sold a few pieces over the years, had a small online business for a time (until one of best childhood friends/business partner had babies and left me to try to manage it alone along with a fulltime job :nope:)...I even had a 6-minute spot on a TV show in 2004 (yes, only 6 minutes...didn't even get my full 15 minutes of fame, alas...LOL)...so breaking out of the business world to follow your passion is really incredible! You're my hero!
 
Butterfly – Your pieces are great, I love Glacier & Dockside:flower:

Deb – NCM :haha: I have wind too but my hubby finds it hilarious:wacko: 6 weeks tomorrow hun, how are you feeling?

Lava – Line getting darker sure sounds like BFP to me, if it was still from your trigger wouldn’t it have gotten lighter? Hope you enjoyed your lunch.

FM – Hope this is your cycle & that all the discomfort is worth it. Enjoy SF, how long are you going for?:flower:

Missy – Sorry DHs ex is moving closer, is there nothing you or DH can do to put her off? Can’t believe that she started a rumour about you, WTF has it got to do with her anyway!!:growlmad:

Ginger – Please let us know that you’re OK

MA – :hugs:

Carole – So glad you stood up for yourself, hope the rest of this cycle goes the way you want.:thumbup:

Chris – So sorry you not feeling well, hope you’re better soon

Nikki – When are you testing?

Skye – Enjoy your trip.

Baby4MJ – Love the smiley for Deb, made me laugh out loud:rofl:

FM...how you holding up? BFP in the making for you too hun :flower:

Missy...slap her with a big fat stick :haha: ex's are such a bone of contention and I'm sorry she is such a spiteful cow. :hugs: and I hope AF stays away for you.

Skye...rest easy my dear :hugs:

Love and :dust: to you alllllllllllllll

Andrea XxX
 
Lynne...only four more days till you see your beautiful bean :happydance:

I know, I'm alternating between being very excited & absolutely crapping myself :wacko:, can't wait until Monday is over.

That's a lovely photo of you & OH
 
Totally natural though hun, I know it'll be fine, just know it :hugs:

Me and OH don't do photo's of ourselves but I quite like that one apart from we are squinting because of the sun :haha:

XxX
 
Never,
Love the pic. Are you fair skinned like me? It looked like an awesome sunny day. You two make such.an attractive couple!

Baby4MJ,
Your ribbing of Deb cracks me up! Guess the stink goes along with the PINK!!!

Chris & FM,
Feeling better? Hope y'all get your BFPs soon.

Lynn,
Getting excited for your scan! The countdown has begun. ;)

Nikki,
Have you tested yet? Impatient people want to know. Test! test!

Hugs to Jocr, MA, Ginger, Deb, Butterfly, Luvy, Missy, HA and all the girls I forgot. Forgive me for.not.calling you out by name, I didn't sleep hardly at all and I've been reducing my coffee intake to 1/2 cup & 1/2 decaf. Needless to say, my brain isn't totally functioning.

AFM, AF is not due until tomorrow and I'm only 13DPO, but this morning my temps were up, no spotting yet, and the line is even darker on my hpt. So, I will let out a little yay, but not too loud yet! I am just scared that this is going to be a big tease and just the trick of the trigger. I agree that inthe line would be getting lighter not darker, but I'm too emotional to feel sure. I was going to wait until tomorrow to get my blood test, but now I want to go in today. I have been so bloated and my stomach is so distentended that it is almost painful, definitely extremely uncomfortable. It hurts to stand or move. I never thought I would say this, ladies, but I wish I had some gas. LOL ;) What I was feeling last night almost sounded like what Skye & FM were experiencing, but it can't be, b/c I was not on injectibles, just Clomid and it wouldn't be hurting so close to the end of my cycle, right?. I'm really confused.

Anyway, I'm going to go and find some more pink to wear for Deb today! ;)
 
Lava, not as fair as you but I love your colouring :flower:

Post the pic pleaseeeeeee and woman please accept this is it...it HAS to be :headspin: :wohoo: :happydance: and everything else :dust:

A XxX
 
Hi girls I'm so sorry for not checking in for awhile..feels like its been a month! I dont know if you all remember me talking of my sister(who went to rehab a few years back) and her children,niece 5 & nephew 14 at the time, had to come live with us for about 7 months. Anyway she has been a hot mess forever & a single mom she just has really low lows. Last week was finals for my nephew and he & his mom(who fight like two 5yr olds) were at each others throat & threatning to run away so I had him come stay with us for the week. He just needed somewhere peaceful & quiet to stay for studying..not to mention I become a big dork when it comes to tests & like to make games out of the questions. I think hes a bit old now for the games but it still makes him laugh(and remember for the tests!)

Anyway I've missed you all & thank you for asking about me. I actually had a dream last night that we all met up at a cafe..so I knew I needed to check in if Im now dreaming of you all!!! Welcome to all the newbies..you've found a great home!

I have to get to the dentist now & want to catch up with everyone when I get back! Love to you all!!!!!!
 
Ginger, OMG, so glad you are alright!!! We were worried about you and are glad you are well. That was a very sweet thing for you to do for your nephew. I bet he will ACE those tests. Funny that you dreamt of us ... we were jumping up and down in the whatevs wagon? :)

Never,
I will try to figure out how to post pics tonight. I need to get into work b/c my DH & I are going to a friend's daughter's high school graduation party tonight and it's almost an hour away and starts at 4 pm in the afternoon. Don't ask me why ... well, I know why ... she's a stay at home mom in that kind of neighborhood. Must be nice. Anyway, we are going to leave around 4 today to get there in time and hopefully not sit in lots of crazy traffic! Also, my boss must be suspicious something is going on with me b/c she is DUMPING work on my right now. ;)

I'm waiting for the nurse to call me back. I'm starting to feel a little better, but now I want to come in and get my blood test. I'm a wuss.
 
Good morning ladies!!

Yea Ginger i am so happy to hear that all is well, we were worried about you!!

I just love the whatevers wagon, too cute, i could not see the pic at work yesterday.

AFM, i am at home today, my head feels like is going to explode, there was no way i was going into work to sit there and try not to fall asleep lol. I am going to stop today and see if i can find the grapefruid seed extract, but i agree that there is no way i could do the onion and honey thing, ewwwwww made me gag just thinking about it lol.

Hi to everybody, sorry i am totaly blank with names right now, my brain is so not working lol.
 
^^^preggo brain? I can't remember where you are in your cycle but are you certain that you are not pregnant?

I just think it's in the waters lately...lots of BFP's going around and I really want us all to have our very own BFP's too :flower:

Hope you're feeling better soon though :hugs:

A xxx
 
Lava - Sorry but I have to :happydance::happydance::happydance::dance::dance::dance::yipee::yipee::yipee: :wohoo::wohoo::wohoo:, I couldn't help myself, will calm down now until tomorrow.

Ginger - So glad you're back & OK :flower:. You're such a great aunty. Hope the dentist isn't too bad

Andrea - yes, we can tell your off work :haha:

Chris - Sounds like you're feeling worse, good job you stopped at home. Rest & take care huni. :hugs:
 
Skye- Enjoy your trip, thanks for letting us know you would be away for a few days so we wouldn't completely freak out again.

Lynnb- super excited for you!!!

never- I hope you are right and this is a bfp in the making

Lava- you would certainly feel that way especially since you are pg. Even though you only took clomid did you trigger? These are good signs!!! I'm totally excited for you I know this is it.

Ginger- Glad you are back!!!!! We missed you

Onmymind- I hope you are feeling better soon, where are you in your cycle?

afm- Ok all along since Saturday I thought what I was experiencing was gas, after waking up twice a night for the past few nights I think I actually have acid reflux. WTH where did that come from, my stomach is gurggling as we speak, not to mention at 4:30 this morning I woke up in pain from heartburn and my stomach and dry heaved and sat on the bathroom floor for about 10 minutes. Its still way too early for me to be pg, I'm only 6dpo. This is so painful and irritating, I called my RE and left a message I"m waiting on them to call me back to let me know if this is common or if I need to see my Dr. I CANNOT go to San Francisco feeling like this. UGGGGH, this has been a horrible week.
 
Ginger...you're back :wohoo:

XxX

I see Never's :wohoo: and raise her a :dance:!! Glad you're back, Ginger! Sorry to hear about your sister's problems, though. The kids are very lucky to have you as their auntie.

Never: Love the pic of you and OH in front of the Vegas sign! My dad always wanted to go to Las Vegas, so my DH and I took a trip with him there just a couple of years before my dad died. It has a lot of great memories for us. :flow:
 
OMG girls I just read back a few pages and didnt even consider that you would think that something might've happened during the storms. I am sooo sorry...thankfully we were lucky this last round unlike poor joplin.

Never you crack me up! I can definately tell you are looking for people to "come out and play" I am totally all over the whateves this month! Feels good too! I believe you said you are waiting on the witch? If so Im sending you lots of:af::af::af:

Lava I cant wait to hear if you have good news too report!!! Im praying hard for you hun! Were you the one that went to Eddies attic? If so is that the place where The Civil Wars play sometimes? And yes we were having quite a good time in my dream. We all were drinking wine & laughing our a**es off about something..not sure what though!

Missy Im really keeping you in my thoughts this week with the neighbors both giving birth. It hasnt been that long since I went through the same thing. I remmember wanting to keep all the blinds closed just to keep from seeing all the new babies. Keep your chin up hun. And I hope the ex doesnt bring you more stress..thats the last thing you need:hugs:

Skye I cant even imagine how exciting your last appointment was. Too hear that heartbeat for the first time..wow it must've been so overwhelming! I am so glad everything is going smoothly. Cant wait till we can get a pic of your little bean!

Lynn thank you I try to be a good aunty. I cant wait until you can show us a baby bump pic! How far along are you now? How are you feeling?

Padbrat I am still in awe of your amazing news! What a happy turn around after such a heartbreaking time you had. Just have to :happydance: when ever I think about it!

FM everything is sounding promising! I hate that you had to feel so bad but as the others have said..that could be a really good sign. I cant tell you how much Im crossing everything for you!

Onmymind(chris) just like FM I hope those annoying symptoms turn out to be a positive in the end. Maybe Never is right...pregnancy brain??? Sending lots of sticky dust your way!

Nikki,Luvy,baby4mj,MA,Dwrgi,HA and the others I know Ive forgotten I still have some going back & reading more to see where all of you girls are at. I hope everyone is good!

AFM I took this month completely off & plan to just try naturally through the summer. I've decided to wait till August to jump on the IVF banwagon. Hopefully by then I'll be in the right mental state and be full of positivity.
Lots of love to you all!

I am so sorry, sounds so horrible! :hugs: I hope the doc can figure out what the issue is and do something to fix it. Traveling would be hell on you, feeling the way you do. Poor thing!
