China:

wow see i told you AF would not come yesterday - i am so glad that it did not for either of us. my spotting has stopped for now and if i was on AF i would be full flow by now usually by the end of the day i would need a tampon and i have had on a little dayliner all day and nothing is on it .. I am so happy ..

I am so excited for you tomorrow -- what time is you appt?? Mine is only 4 days away, but it feels like an eternity. I made mine at 7:00 a.m. so then i could get it done really early and hopefully find out before noon. my nurse is great she called me like 3 minutes after I called her today freaking out about the spotting. so hopefully she will call me earlier than later on Friday ..

I understand now why they call this the dreaded 2ww..

enjoy your dinner - my DH does not come home till 10:00 tonight so I am putting my feet up and relaxing for the rest of the eve. the only thing moving on me will be my fingers to reply to you and cindy ..

Oh PS. wow three months without sex -- geez my RE told me 4-5 days, but we still are not touching each other - just my luck we would mess something up in there ... :-)

take care ladies and i am so praying for you tomorrow China,

carrie

Carrie, Let me tell you this, seeing brown is not a bad thing, now red we all know what that means! That's what we want to avoid, I have been feeling like AF wants to come since Saturday I have wiped a few times including this morning and I see light pink I'm kind of worried but as long as it's not the ugly bright red it's okay. Don't feel that all you have done is waste of time, it usuallt takes more then one try, it would be wonderful and a blessing if it took on the first try, but if not just pray and believe and get ready for next month, but hopefully that won't be the situation for you or I and we both have to try to not worry so much, we are so much alike, I know how you feel we are both sitting here on pins and needles.

I have such mixed emotions about going to the doctor tomorrow, on one hand scared I will get a BFN, and also scared I will get a BFP and miscarry! All I can do is pray and leave it in God's hands if I worry and allow my self to be stressed out I not trusting and believing in God. Carrie if you are able to please try not to work so many hours, that will take a huge toll on your body, I saw that you said you were resting in the car, good! I have to learn how to relax more myself and put my feet and kick back!

Dh has to leave for work in a couple hours so I'm going to start cooking now but I will be back on in about in hour, look forward to hearing from you....Stay positive....China

I think because of the m/c, my dr wanted to be on the safe side. Which is fine with me.. Dh took it well, the weeks went by fast. The twin book that I'm reading said to have sex in your 2nd trimester but it's not a good idea in the 3rd. So dh will have to wait another 3 months in the 3rd trimester. But what we went through, we will do whatever it takes.

Get some rest, put your feet up and drink lots of water, I'll talk to you later.

Cindy


P.S. China: Good luck tomorrow!

Cindy,

trust me i would not do anything at all for the entire 9 mos if i was pregnant with twins .. i would just be too scared - twins are already hard to take full term and i would not want to do anything to make it even harder.

DH understands what is going on and he is fine. He is actually the one who refused me a week ago and said we would not do anything until it is absolutely safe ..

so one check for the DH ... funny thing today my DD started her period. After all that i went through scared to death if mine was coming i came home to mommy i started my period today . i just had to laugh out loud ..

take care ladies,

carrie

China -- I cannot wait to hear your pg results tomorrow.

hopeful2006,
I'm thinking of you this morning.... Did you have any more spotting last night or this morning?

I'm hopping you didn't but they say with implantation bleeding it could come and go for a couple of days.

Cindy

Cindy,

NOPE -- It stopped yesterday at 3:00 so i am so happy AF did not come and I only have 3 more days to wait till pg test.

I am having some nasty cramps though, but more like twinges than cramps - kinda strange nothing i ever felt with AF ..

I am soooo tired today - it just seems that I can't get enough sleep right now.

My DD pampered me last night b/c i told her about the spotting ysterday and she made me dinner and would not let me get off of recliner chair - she was so cute ..

thanks so much for thinking of me -- how are you and those little guys doing today??

I can't wait to hear from China her pg test is today ..

Carrie

hopeful2006,
I'm sooo happy to hear this! This is looking good.

What a wonderful dd, she will be a big help once the baby or babies comes along... I'm so excited for you.

I'm doing really good and the twins are good also. I have not felt any movement yet. My husband lays his head on my stomach just to see if he can hear anything and he says he does hear some kind of movement going on. He said it's a different sound that he has never heard before.

My u/s is on Valentine's day, I'm so anxious to see how big they gotten since the last u/s in December.

I took a walk last night with the dog and dh because it was nice weather, but as I look outside this morning, it's snowing. I hate Michigan weather.

What state do you live in? I'm sure you probably already told me but I have pregnancy brain, I forget easy...

Well I have to get ready for my chiropractor appt, I will talk to you later.

Take care!
Cindy

Cindy,

I will cut you slack on the pregnancy brain -- lol

I live in Maryland and for the last week it has been 50/60 degrees - strange weather for Jan and we have only had one snow and it was hardly nothing , I am glad though the last thing i want is to fall on ice or something stupid and hurt my chances.

Yes my DD will be a great help - she will be 15 next month and my son just turned 19 in October and still lives with us - he is moving out though in March -- but he is going to paint and put new carpet and do the baby room for me and Jaz has already said if they put me on bedrest then she will do whatever i say without lip -- she made me laugh ..

good luck at chiro - don't let them push to hard on your back .. take care

will talk to you soon,
carrie

hopeful2006,
He usually takes it easy on my back. My neck has been jacked up since I can remember, he just focuses on that.

There is a lady that goes there and she is pregnant w/ triplets. She is about 4 months and her dr told her to be on bed rest starting Feb 1st. That's gotta be tough to be on bed rest so early. I give her a lot of credit, I'm not sure I could handle triplets. I'm not even sure I can handle twins, but I'm sure my instincts will kick in.

Haven't heard anything from China, I hope everything is ok with her. I hope she got the news she wanted to hear.

Cindy

Cindy,

that is good. i am glad b/c i would be worried when they are cracking your back the pressure on your abdomen would be painful.

i am at job #2 now .. but had to check the site -- i look forward to hearing from you all - it just gives me such hope ..\
\
Still no spotting - just crampy -- cross your fingers that bitch AF does not come -- lol

take care,
carrie

hopeful2006,

carrie

Carrie,
Just keep busy and your day will fly by. I know it's easier said then done.

Having a support group is wonderful! At least you know that you have loving family and friends that will be there for you.

Take Care,
Cindy

Cindy,

Carrie,
I told you that you were prego! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is wonderful news, I'm so happy for you and your family!

You and your hubby should take the rest of the day off to celebrate!


Cindy

Cindy:

Thank you so much ;D

We are very happy, but now comes the journey to make sure everything goes ok -- I am scared to death that something might go wrong and I could not deal with that - I am absolutely euphoric about this baby and decided right now that i will do whatever they tell me to do even if it means to be in bed for the whole time .

Hubby is off, but i am using leave sparingly b/c of all the dr appts and the ensuing time off, but he is coming to take me to lunch and bring me some new pants b/c this am. i put on these jeans and as soon as i ate i blew up from being bloated and now they are way to tight - i know it is the progesterone not the baby ..

Let me ask you is 602 beta good number ??????

thanks again

P.S. Have you heard from China at all???
