Thanks ladies for your encouragement words. I feel much better now. Yesterday I have been too emotional and crying all the time. My DH has been consoling me and punching my breasts few times to make sure that they are indeed sore :lol: . Last night I even received surprise from my niece (2 yrs old) that made me laugh and cry at the same time. She sent me a video of her singing You Are My Sunshine. How I miss her so much.

TinaO and MBG: Good luck to both of you. Send baby dusts and BFP prayers to you.

JaneDoe, 4OurBaby,and Decinnancy: Good luck to you too for tomorrow. The test date is only one day away. AF GO AWAY!!! YOU ARE NOT WELCOME!!! Sending all babies prayers to all of you.

BBdusts to you all :) :)

Hi Girls,

tinaO: Woohoo! Tomorrow's the big day! Congratulations on all your BFPs on those scary HPTs!!! So funny that the girl remembered you and your purchase!

Thanks for your sweet words in the last post. I am blessed in many ways. First and foremost, by having the most wonderful, loving, caring husband and the most supportive family. They've got everyone they know praying for me! That's one of the things I think about when I start getting down.

We have thought the same as you regarding adoption. We are not opposed to it and sometimes we think that maybe that's what we are meant to do. But some days I get upset at that thought, and others I am ok with it. Can you say roller coaster ride?

Jane Doe: Yes! We do seem to have some things in common! Although, your job seemed much more scary! I'm glad that you got out of it and can focus your attention on starting a family.

My DH is doing everything as well. He has been so good through it all and doesn't complain. I think he feels like I am the one who gets examined all the time and stuck with needles all the time so this is his part. It's very cute.

itsgottawork: How nice will it be to have the rest of the year off to celebrate your BFP?????? We both test on Friday, so send some good strong baby vibes my way please!

Thanks for your positive talk on how all the emotional outbursts can be a sign of pregnancy. That's what I keep trying to tell myself. But then a sneaky little voice tells me that it's probably just a side effect from the medicines.

You're right about this strengthening our relationship with our DHs. We've had a rough past 5 years and I don't think that there is anything that can break us apart!

I think that if my beta test on Friday is positive, I will run out and buy a digital test just so I can see the word "Pregnant"! I'll need physical proof! :lol:

MBG: Good Luck Good Luck Good Luck on your beta test tomorrow!!! I will be thinking of you like crazy, my fellow non-POASer!

I also have had that dull cramping, but not consistently. And sometimes it's more like a flutter or twinge. I hope it is a good sign! I am an absolute wreck these past few days thinking about Friday. I want to get sick each time I think about it! Of course, I want to know the results, but part of me is almost content to live in this limbo world where it is POSSIBLE that I am pregnant. Right now, that feels better than getting a negative! Aaaaaarrrrgggghhhhh!

Everytime this happens, I think of you girls and how strong you are and how positive you are! No matter what happens, I am so happy to have shared this experience with you all because YOU GIRLS have made this process easier!

Thanks for the extra dose of baby dust, MBG.

LAIVF: What I wouldn't give to be in your shoes right now with a beta of 4011! I am soooo happy for you! Be sure to keep us updated on your ultrasound!

BBdusts: Welcome! Be sure to keep positive and re-read some of the posts when you are feeling down. These girls will keep you happy! Try not to read too much into signs/symptoms. It's different for everyone and it can drive you insane! I know from personal experience! I always think...Does this mean I'm pregnant? Does this mean I'm getting AF? Is this just a side effect of the progesterone? Yikes, it will drive you mad.

GOOD LUCK and plenty of BABY DUST to all you beta testers tomorrow. Stay happy and don't worry, the rest of us will do that for you! Please let us know ASAP how it went!

Love, hugs, prayers & baby dust! xoxoxoxoxo

MBG: That made me tear up too! How sweet of your husband! He is going to be so anxious at work and so worried about you! I couldn't sleep much either last night because I was thinking of all you guys today which led me to thinking of all of us tomorrow! It's out of our hands.

All I can say is you all have been wonderful and I wish BFPs for all of you because those babies are sure going to be lucky to have a home with you!!! Nobody deserves it more than you girls :lol:

Hi! No news yet. Just got back from the clinic. We should be hearing in the next hour. I have a conference call for work in a couple of hours, so they are going to try to reach me before then. I really, really needed to read your posts. They have helped immensely right now. I am still very nervous. Thank you all so much for your support. I will let you know as soon as I hear something!!! :)

4ourbaby - You deserve this too!!! You are the one that started this thread and for that I think I can speak for everyone by saying thank you so much for providing such a wonderful outlet for us to share our thoughts, concerns and excitement throughout this cycle. I too hope for BFPs for all of us.

TinaO - Congratulations on taking the test. Less than an hour to go. I am rooting for you!
And, in a completely off topic aside, does your id end with the letter O or the number 0? I think I have had more trouble with your id then with MBG's id! I keep switching back and forth between 0 and O. :lol:

tinaO: Oh, this last hour must be going soooooo slow for you! Just keep thinking about all those positive HPTs!!!!

itsgottawork: You are sooo kind! Thank you...that perked me up because I am a little worried about something right now....

Sorry if TMI :cry: I just used the restroom and I had a little spotting...just on the tissue! What the heck does this mean????!!!! It was very very little and it was very light pink with just a hint of brownish tint. I wouldn't worry if this was the implantation period, but my beta is tomorrow! I haven't had time to research anything. Do you think this could be a sign of AF? Could that happen before I stop progesterone? Or do you think this is just normal regardless of a positive or negative result?

Please share your thoughts...I already broke down in the shower and I am trying really hard to keep myself calm!!

4ourbaby - Try not to freak out!!! Our bodies are doing weird stuff at this point!! And LOTS of women have bleeding for the whole 1st trimester. In fact, my RE just told me that all the cramping I have had is normal because our ovaries don't go back to normal for 1-2 months. He said if you have any bleeding, don't rush to the ER. This happens all the time and usually it does not mean anything. They usually say the brown is implantation bleeding. And who knows - they could have implanted a few days ago but are still stirring things up. So hard to tell!! I know it is scary and it freaks you out, but remain calm and just think positive thoughts. I will be thinking about you!!!! Try to stay positive!!!

4ourbaby - I agree with Tina0. Our bodies are totally out of whack with all the stuff we have just done to them and that could definitely be remnants of implantation bleeding. Not to repeat LAIVF's TMI, but she also saw pink too and went on to get a BFP! Stay positive. I am sending my thoughts and prayers and sticky vibes and anything else I could to make you feel better!
