Nope, I haven't . I am not expecting a call anymore, but I will still be excited if I do get one. Oh well. I'm happy with the job I have now... I just applied to the other one on a whim because it was the type of law I'm really interested in. Everything happens for a reason.

Mare-I think you should test tomorrow with FMU!!

Claire-you were on the right track with the progesterone. It is supposed to lenghten my LP, meaning that AF should stay away until I stop taking it which is why I always POAS every month when TTC before stopping it, but I have always had breakthrough spotting starting at around 10dpo so it has never truly lengthened my LP, so I am not sure how it really works but I know it is helping with my lining and implantation so is doing something. BTW, What makes you think something is wrong with your eggs?

Bina~I'm right there with you about reading and not responding right away and then forgetting what I read. LOL

Jen and Mare~A cautious congratulations to you both. Hopefully this is the start of something.

Claire~Speaking of something wrong with the eggs, I've been told that's why I can't conceive, so in my case, it's been "proven". What I think is that the bad eggs caused the stillbirth somehow. That hasn't been proven, but I wonder...

Well, AF showed yesterday. It was a total surprise, not that it came, I was expecting it, but that it came so soon. I didn't expect her until next week and there was no spotting ahead of time, which is what's been happening the last four months. I don't think I really o'd this month, although my bbs hurt for the last week, which happens after o. So who knows. If I wasn't ttc, I wouldn't be thinking anything about it, just a normal 28 day cycle.

On a better note, I got a new router for my computer last night and I haven't lost my internet connection yet. I'm hoping that did the trick!

Grrr.. lost my post..

Jen- Cautiously hopeful for you!

Mare- Did you test?

JJ- YAY for internet.

Well onto cycle 2 for me (so no Mare, Mary and Claire I am NOT pregnant.. did I save myself from a stoning?) AF made a surprise attack this morning. My LP seems way too short to me. Anyone elses around 11 days normally?

Christie - I'm sorry AF showed... she is a witch.

JJ - Thank you. I'm happy that your internet is finally working!

No, I didn't test this morning. I'm going to try to hold out for tomorrow morning. I'm going to the store today, so I might pick up some FR. I'm more comfortable with them. I know I'm weird. lol.

__________________

Mare-I'm the same way with FR, those are the only tests I will use. I'm just too superstitious or something, lol. I hope tomorrow brings confirms a BFP!

Christie-sorry that AF showed. As for the LP, you could try taking some B6 vitamines or a Bcomplex. My LP is only 10 days, and when I started to take B vitamins while it didn't increase my LP it moved my O up by a few days. I forgot how long its been since you stopped BF, but that cause also cause a shorter LP so maybe you just need time to get back on track??

JJ-didn't you do the IUI this cycle? to AF!! As for "bad eggs" I can't let myself take that thought too seriously but I would be curious to know if that can be a cause of m/c and stillbirths. Will you be doing IUI this next cycle?

Good morning, goils! Well, I'm in the OC again this weekend. Went to a birthday party and wedding shower yesterday on opposite ends of So Cal, so I'm beat! But I'm not that tired to not go bowling with Betsy this afternoon.

Mare ~ You were going on a cruise to Alaska?!?!?! Where did Becky go? I'm sorry, I suck.

Christie and JJ ~ Sorry that AF came, erg.

Claire ~ PM me your address and I can get TCC out to you in the mail this week.

I had to go back and read my post because I was thinking-"I don't think there's anything wrong with my eggs." Ok, I see what I did now. Bina, what I was trying to say was that I think something is wrong with me-I just can't prove it. not sure what at this point, just a general feeling. You said something about thinking there is something wrong with your eggs. Anyhow, maybe that makes no sense at all. nevermind.

JJ- Ah, dangit! I'm sorry.

Christie- you too, I'm sorry for AF. I still might toss a pebble or two at ya, just cuz! No, just kidding. I think that 11 days is cutting it close-but I wouldn't worry just yet. Supposedly 10days is the cutoff for too short LP.

Mare- I just wish you'd test cuz the suspense is KILLING me! LOL.

Mel- Tell Betsy Hi for us!

Thanks girls.. she showed up with a vengence too.. yuck.

Hoping for some July BFPs!!

Mel - Yes, we are doing a Seattle roundtrip cruise (inner passage). There is one stop in Victoria, B.C., and there are 3 (i think) stops in Alaska. We are leaving July 24th . I'm really excited. The only problem is that there are so many excursions. Dh and I have a 'method' of picking activities.. if there are two or more that we can't decide on, we always go with the cheapest one. lol. We've only booked one so far, and that is the pub tour... you can see where our priorities are... LOL

I don't know where Becky went. I didn't even know she was going until the day before she left!

Well, I bought some FR tests... tomorrow morning it is. I hope I can get some sleep... last time I 'planned' a test, I was like a 6 year old waiting for Christmas morning. lol.

__________________

Mare- Good luck on your wait. When I had my chem, I would tell myself "not till tomorrow" and that would last about an hour! Yay for willpower.

Christie- Boo for vengeful AF....you would think the fact that the witch shows at all is punishment enough, right?

Hi ya'll !!!

Well that witch af finally showed and is making life miserable in this heat. Not doing much today just relaxing, since my brother is here driving me nuts. So does anyone know much about Lemon Grove, CA? It's only 15mins to base is why I ask.

Mare - praying for a bfp for you in the morning!!!!

Christie - looks like we're cycle buddies this cycle

Claire - so how is the puppy? and DH? lol

Yay for a cycle buddy!

Brandy-sorry that I haven't had time to reply to your PM about San Diego! Where exactly is the base? and I can tell you the good areas from there. I used to work in Lemon Grove. There are other areas I would recommend over Lemon Grove.

__________________

Well, Ladies.. another faint line! I used 2mu. I woke up in the middle of the night having to go, but didn't test then. I think I've held out as long as I can... gonna test again tomorrow morning .

__________________

Good morning ladies. I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! Mine was okay - we didn't really do much other than going out on the boat - just too short as usual!!

Christie - sorry about AF I know even if you weren't entirely expecting it the first month, its still disappointing... DH will be happy he gets another BDathon I wouldn't worry too much about a short LP - 11 days is within the normal range and this is the first cycle its been that short, right? No harm in taking a B6 and B-complex everyday though like Bina suggested... it can only help.

Mare - normally I'm not a POAS pusher but since you've already seen a faint line I don't see any harm in retesting to see it get darker I hope you get a positive with the FR this morning.
Edit: we crossed posts! OMG OMG!!!! Yay for another positive!!!!

Mel - Sounds like a whirlwind weekend. I hope you had fun bowling!

JJ - GGGGRRRRR to a surprise visit from AF!! I'm confused as well about you not Oing and I wish you had a chart to stalk - did your doctor do b/w when you went in for the IUI? Have you asked your doctor if bad eggs could have had something to do with the stillborn? <hugs>

Jen - congratulations! Here's to a happy and healthy 9 months!

Irene-your weekend sounds like fun! One of Dh's dreams is to own a boat! My weekend always feels like we are catching up with chores and errands, but it feels good when we're done!

Mare-CONGRATS!!! Post a pic if you can (I could never figure out how to get those close up pics w/out it being blurry) I think you broke the record for the earliest BFP, I've never known anyone get one before 9 or 10dpo.

Looks like we are on a BFP streak with Mare and Jen! Yay

I actually temped this morning. I wasn't planning on it but when I woke up I was curious and was able to find it in my nightstand easily. It was in the pre-O range as expected. I may temp every few days or so, since it would be nice to know what is going on with my body so I am not wondering about AF.
