Evening all and thanks for the lovely gl messages :D .

Stephanie - Well done on coming home with your little ones, enjoy your time at home, and think pink and blue lol.

Nerms - Thinking of you guys for tomorrow, you probably feel as excited and nervous as I do right now if not more. I wish you both all the best, even though we won't need it as I'm sure your snugglies are very happy in there.

Today, I've been a little more nauseous than when I was on the Down regging meds, and my boobs have been even more sore than the beginning of this week. Not sure why that is, I only took my trigger shot last night. In quite a bit of pain as well from really bad wind pains (sorry about that). It's drinking all this water and stuff in prearation for my body not OHSS'ing that I'm doubled up with wind :roll: . Great just what I need before the OP, so I've been on peppermint capsuals and peppermint teas to eliviate some of that lovely stuff I have to deal with interupting my IBS. But on the good note, I've had some more Acupuncture today and it was pure bliss, and I'll be having more next week.

Anyway, I'll cath up with you guys over the weekend if I can, and read what you've all been upto in my abscence. I hope you've all been well anyway Image , TC for now.

Hope your doing well..

pep23 - Welcome home.. I hope you have a great time and enjoying the nice sunny beaches in Florida, my hubby and I were thinking on moving in Florida someday.. I hope everything is doing well for you.

nerms - PMA..PMA..PMA..BFP.. sorry to hear your not feeling well lately, don't worry too much remember there are many reason for that spotting to happened so it doesn't mean it's a bad sign.. keep my fingers crossed, and praying hard for you.

Quita - Hope everything is doing well for you.

Keep my fingers crossed, praying hard and hoping for the best.. as of now I'm doing well, except my buns are sore from progesterone injections, that sucker is big and long needle :) . The first time my hubby did the injection his whole body was shaking..his getting better now not as bad as the first time...

Hi girls, I'm sorry I come with bad news...I got a negative! It's a real bummer and I'm not quite sure what to do with myself at the minute...but life goes on hey. We did HPT and seeing that one line for the umpteenth time is so frustrating...but what to do... :cry: :cry:

Thank you all for your support. Wishing you all lots and lots of baby dust!

[/img]The Ostermilk Mother and Baby Book

A guide to good mothercraft 1969


"Your normal clothers will be worn for the first few months, but as your waistline expands you will find it necessary to make a few alterations. You will probably find the most comfortable things for general wear are a skirt and smock; for out of doors, a loose, beltless, three quarter length coat is a most concealing garment. The skirt should preferably hang from the shoulders by braces, so that there is no pressure round the waist."

Hope this makes you smile!

Hope everyone has avery Good Friday and that all our wishes come true. xxx

Congrats Miss Piggy! Woo Hoo

Anie: My dh is the same way. He has to "mentally" prepare to give me the shot! I guess its hard on them too. And yes that needle is long!! I hope you can make it to a 5day transfer?

Amanda: Great numbers sweetie!! Good luck on the U/S

Q: So are you going to be suspending a skirt from your shoulders soon? Hee Hee

Oh there is some joy and some sadness today....

Nerms my dear friend, I'm absolutely gutted for you and wish there were some words that could make it a little better for you. Hope you and DH are taking care of one another - sending you some big big hugs sweetie.


Miss Piggy - Thats fantastic news - so you've finally resisted the temptation to do a hpt - you naughty girl - didn't even give us a chance of doing a special lil thread for you :wink: Do you go in for bloods on the 12th??

Quita - gee thankfully the world has finally moved on - skirts with braces what ever next !

Amanda - numbers are looking good - good luck on the u/s

Anie - here's to the lil ones holding out to day 5

how are my other 2ww buddies ???

Well, i'm crying at the most silly things at the moment - hope its the pg hormones - then read Sonyas post and that just finished me off about the police men - feeling much better today - hubby in the garden, me supervising - too bad I can't help :wink: Looks like we are going to have a glorious Easter weekend :D

catch up later
