I just clued in that if AF doesn't rear it's ugly face I test on Mother's day. Wow what a present that would be, I am trying to keep a positive attitude this cycle even though I know that it causes a bigger crash if it doesn't work out. Oh the waiting is awful, my breasts are sore and it feels like there is a muscle knot in my pelvis, is my body playing with my mind again or what. Well dishes and laundry are waiting, ( also the little one here needs a nap), so I best get my butt in gear. Baby wishes to us all. Lynne

I have taken Clomid & progesterone now to bring on AF. I've just finished the full 10 progesterone pills, and still no period. I took a hpt before going on the pills, which was a BPN. So, I don't think I'm pregnant. Just waiting for AF to come so I can start my next cycle. Anyway, last month was my first month on Clomid. I got extremely sore & swollen breasts. I've never had that before, so I was postive that I was pregnant without even testing. Of course, I had the big let down. Anyway, I've found out that is a side-effect of the hormones. As well as increased appetite, cravings & extreme fatigue. It's almost a cruel joke, because it really makes you believe you are pregnant. My point in telling you this is just to let you know I am going through the same exact symptoms you are, and in my case it was from the Clomid. I took my hpt on our anniversary, hoping for a great suprise to dh. I pray that you get a BFP, but maybe you should wait to take the test on a different day than Mother's Day, just in case it is negative. It might make it harder to take. Lots of babydust to you! Good luck!
I hope you have wonderful news this mother's day. I hope you get a positive result and it is the best day ever Prior to having the twins, it was my LEAST favorite holiday for obvious reasons, as well as I had my first m/c on mother's day It still isn't my favorite holiday, it is just more running around to see family!!! I am hoping this is your month Lynne, you certainly deserve it Take Care, Meg
