    @Mrs.Panda: thank you for sharing! That gives me a boost of confidence. I too was on 100mg Clomid.

    AF should start her pre-spotting maybe today or tonight. Every time I go to the bathroom I get SUPER nervous and scared that I'll see blood. I'm not ready to be out yet, but AF due tomorrow am and still no bfp for me.

    @CupQuakeWalk: I'm sorry friend.

    I think there are 4 of us left to test this month. Then I'll start the April thread. :). So far, we have doubled our BFPs from February so I have a feeling April will be an awesome month!!!

    @littlek: April better be AWESOME! (Not that I don't think we can't get at least 1-2 more for March!) you guys are going to make us wait until the 31st? Grrrrr

    @CupQuakeWalk: I'm not planning on testing this cycle, just waiting on AF. Next cycle I plan on POAS all the time! I ordered 20 tests..

    @Sandy: HUGS!! I'm so sorry

    @CupQuakeWalk: I can relate to being scared of seeing blood...this morning, I had the faintest tinge of pink when I wiped (along with some EWCM), so now, every time I go to the bathroom, I'm just waiting to see more. AF isn't due until Wednesday or Thursday, but I'm kind of nervous I have my O day off by a day or two. Time will tell!

    @littlek: Hoping AF doesn't show for you!

    @littlek: I have a good feeling about April!! That was my miracle month for LO

    @sandy: I'm sorry, spotting is the worst

    I am having a hard day. Thinking about how 2 months ago I was pregnant and so now I should be telling people as I end 1st tri. But instead I'm here in limbo. It definitely could be worse - I'm happy to be in a position to have another shot. I am just so over ttc right now. We may need a break soon.

    I just want to say how glad I am that we are all together in this TTC journey! It's nice having people who understand what I'm going through. I know we all are at different parts in our journey and I can't wait to celebrate everyone's BFP! I feel like a long winter is over and we are all going to have an amazing spring full of . Hugs to everyone!!! I'm so glad to be going on this journey with such an amazing group of women.

    @littlek: +1!

    @CupQuakeWalk: I feel the same way- I hate going to the bathroom when AF is about to come. I have started using my menstrual cup so I can control when I have that feeling, if that makes sense. This way, I don't have it as often and I don't find out at work, either.

    @CupQuakeWalk: I always hate the day or two before you expect AF...i remember the feeling of dread every time i wipe. I hope you get your BFP this month.

    @littlek: me too:( I wish we were in a due date club together instead, but I am glad we're all together nonetheless

    Thanks guys...so far, nothing. I do usually spot before AF. I really wonder if I have my O day completely off. I am going to start a thread and ask about others' experiences.

    Cheerleading for you all!!!

    I'm only on month 2 TTC for #2, but it was 8 months for my son so I know what some of you are going through and am really rooting for you!

    @littlek: here's to the spring full of :bfp:! Having the bee has made a huge difference this time around for me. I love the positive energy here even among people who have struggled. And I'm holding out hope for another on here in March too!

    I also hope we see more march BFPs!!! For the rest, April is our month!

    @bhbee: I am so sorry, and I can completely relate. I recently passed our announcement date, that was a rough time period. Big, big hugs.

    DH wanted to go stroller shopping yesterday for some of the items we had started doing preliminary research on before the mc. It was so hard. He thought it would bring good karma since it's my O week, but it made the stark reality of our situation worse watching him test drive strollers and look at car seats. At one point he mentioned I was the only non pregnant lady there. Then we had to come home and BD. Thank goodness for lube, the only thing I was in the mood for was a good cry and lots of ice cream.

    It's definitely helped having a group to vent and share experiences with....this process can get so discouraging and it really helps to have this group

    @Crystal: I'm so sorry. While sweet of your DH, it sounds like it went the opposite of the intended result. I am really hoping it brings good karma for you!

    @AmeliaBedilia: he really tries, and he knows this is getting to me and thought it would be fun, but it totally didn't help at all. Gah.

    Your DH is almost home for good, right? Yayayayay!

    @sandy: I completely agree! The ladies here are so wonderful.

    @Crystal: yes, his last day is next Friday, but we have to be out of the apartment by the end of the month. The movers are coming a week from today, and DH will stay with friends the last week. DH is working on opening his business. Plus, I should hear this week about the compensation package on the new job, which I will probably take as long as the package isn't terrible. Most people we know tell us they can't believe how crazy our lives are, and they don't even know about TTC.

    @Crystal: i'm so sorry That is extremely tough. O dust to you!
    I used to go down baby aisles and think, "oh, I'll try that brand with my next baby!" and it used to encourage me, but now it just KILLS me. I stopped that little habit.

    @bhbee: @CupQuakeWalk: @dc yoga bee: @littlek: thanks ladies. I know he meant well, but it felt like a giant kick in the ovaries.

    @AmeliaBedilia: you do have a crazy (but awesome) life. The new job sounds amazing for having young kids with the schedule they're offering. Will DH have flexibility on his business?

    @Crystal: Yikes, I'm sorry, friend. Did you at least have ice cream after??

  29. Crystal

    grapefruit / 4028 posts

    @Mrs.Panda: no. but DH did make me chocolate covered strawberries, so yay.

    DH admitted he has been feeling pressure to have a baby, so I'm hesitant to tell him how sad this made me. He keeps bringing up all the stuff we saw and I don't want to damper his enthusiasm.

    @Crystal: some people deal with it differently:) maybe it cheers him up to push a stroller around a Babies R Us. I think it's one of those things that has an entirely different effect on everyone.

    @Crystal: oh wow. That's a tough babies r us experience. At least you got a BD in afterwards. I'm so sorry about the pressure that's being felt in your house.

    @bhbee: I'm so sorry you are having a tough day too!! Keep thinking about all the possibilities for the future.

    I'm so sorry for all the girls who got BFNs over the weekend. That surely sucks.

    But I love @littlek: 's positivity! Next month could be great for all of us!!

    @MrsMcD: every month I always hope we "graduate" together!

    @CupQuakeWalk: you are right. I think this helped energize him, even if it's not my thing. In the same vein, I know he doesn't understand/like temping/OPKs/etc, but that makes me feel better. Good to remember.

    @littlek: hey, I don't know if you can still edit that, but my poas date moved to 26th. I decided I want to just wait out AF today & tomorrow. She was due today but Clomid might have messed with that.

    @littlek: dude, E is still asleep. He does this every Monday because he doesn't like weekend naps when daddy is home. I'm not complaining! It's 10:30 am and I'm in bed HBing!

    @MrsMcD: I agree, I love @littlek: 's positivity! It's never easy to see AF or a BFN, but having you girls to turn to has really been helping me.

    No AF for me yet, and no more spotting except that weird pink tinge yesterday. However, AF is inevitable, temp dropped a little bit again today, and last night, I had wicked AF cramps (they haven't started yet today). Officially, TTC is taking longer than one-year and is no longer within the "normal" range. I'm so ready for our TTC break.

    I'd still love to be active in the POAS thread next month if you guys will have me!! I'll be a cheerleader for sure! I check daily and really look forward to making connections with all of you.
