babyblue2 - The tummy painting sound like fun. Well I still have a way to go before taking the hpt. I did however get a positive on the opk on cd 12 & 13 just like last month. I will update but I am thinking that fertility friend will say that my ovulation will be today cd 14. I will keep you posted. How are you doing and feeling? Rub your belly for me. Krissy68

Krissy - good luck with the BD!!!
Just back from my OB appointment and everything looks great with baby. Measuring on time and heart rate is 160. Gained 3lbs in last 2 weeks... some of which I am sure is water weight since my feet and hands are starting to swell. That puts my total weight gain at 23lbs... not bad since I will be 36 weeks on Sunday. Its been really hot here the last few days, so I am glad to just stay inside and keep cool.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let everyone know, my pregnancy didn't work out for us, I ended up miscarrying at 10 weeks. It was the most horrific thing that I have ever been thru, I ended up losing too much blood (my level dropped to a 6 a normal level is a 12), and had to be rushed to the er for emergency surgery and a couple of blood transfusions. My husband has been my rock, he is trying to be very positive about the future but I'm not ready to think ahead right now, it is very tough but I know with my faith that I will be ok. Thanks again for all of your prayers.

tamara37-I am so sorry about your loss. I also miscarried when I was 37 and I was devastaded and depressed. It took 7 months but I am now 38 and I believe that I have a healthy pregnancy. I know you will be ok but take the time to grief and then get back on your feet and take really good care of yourself because if you want a baby you will get one so just be the best that you can be next time!

Tamara - so sorry about your m/c. Its devastating all on its own, without having to go through what you did. Stay strong, grieve for your LO and take good care of yourself. I went through a m/c in October at 6.5 weeks along (not traumatic like yours), and I cried for weeks. I also had me a good cry a couple of weeks ago when I hit my Peanuts' due date. Even though I am ready to give birth to my healthy baby boy, I was still saddened by the baby I lost. There is nothing wrong with grieving for a baby, no matter what point you lost them at.
Solo - congrats on your pregnancy! Women and mothers are strong people... you can get through anything (with or without your partner). Hope everything works out for you!
Krissy - when are you due to test? I know you are in your 2ww. 27 days and counting for me!

tamara37 - I'm so very sorry that you had to go through this. I will be praying for you and please if there is anything I can do for you please let me know. I am sending you a hug.
babyblue2 - I am going to test on the 3rd I will only be cd 23/10dpo but the earliest that fertility friend said I can test is 5 days before the start of AF and that would be on July 4 but my actual test date is July 9 and this cycle I started AF on June 11 so I am a__suming I will start AF between 9-13 July. Here is what I am feeling so far: b___bs are a little sore, lower back ache; crampy stomache a little quessy and feeling nausuated. I will keep you posted. Krissy68

Keeping my fingers crossed for you Krissy :) I am just getting more and more tired. I took the kids and ran some errands yesterday and it totally wiped me out. My feet are really starting to swell too... good thing I only need to squeeze into sandals. This morning, after a restless night, my back and hips were sore, as well as something new! I feel like I have been riding a horse for a weeks straight. My pubic bone hurts! I know the baby needs to stay put for a couple more weeks at least, but I am getting soooo tired of being preggo.

babyblue2 - Thank you very much!!!! Try not to over do it. How are you feeling and try and relax and get your rest. I know what you mean you are at the end and you just want to be holding your baby NOW!!!!! I hated that pressure down in the pubic bones like the baby will just fall out any second. Here is my update. I am currently on cd 20/7dpo and my temp drop down to 97.97 from 98.37. Do this mean I had a implantation dip? I hope my temp go back up because this would really be early for me to be getting AF and yesterday I was looking at my fertility friend and it said if I conceive the baby would be born on March 16 (that is my mom's birthday) I would be the happiest person because I don't know if you know this or not but my mom died in Jan 96 and my father died in Oct 96 they were both 53. I hope you have a very nice evening. Talk to you soon. Krissy68

Sorry to hear about your parents, thats very young to pa__s. Would be very special if your baby were to be born on your mom's birthday!
We celebrated Canada Day yesterday with a huge street party. Lots of fun but very tiring! Think I will just try to take it easy today. Its been raining here quite a bit this week. The rain always gives me a headache (which in turn makes me naseous). The pressure has eased off a bit on my pubic bones, which is good. He still likes bouncing on my bladder though... so potty breaks are every half hour at least! Going to see my OB tomorrow. Not sure if they will do GBS test this week or next. The docs actually don't even do it anymore.... they send us home with a swab kit as 'homework'!! Ick!

babyblue2 - Take it easy and just relax I hope your doctor do the test for you that is what they get paid all the big bucks for. Here is my little update. I took a hpt last night and it was a Negative which I knew it would be I was only 8dpo but my temp went up some more today. I am not cd22/9dpo and my temp went from 98.24 8dpo to 98.46 so that is good I am still thinking about testing tomorrow if my temp go up a little more if not then I will just wait it out until next weeke. My official test date is July 9 and I should be getting AF between July 9-13 since this cycle I started on June 11. What you think. I will know if she is coming because my temp always start dropping. Today I am not feeling any signs not sure if I should be down or not. Have a Happy 4th of July and I will talk to you soon. Krissy68

Krissy - hope you had a great July 4th. My family and I went up to the cottage. On the 3 hour car ride home I started getting pretty strong BH. Then last night, the BH got really strong and were actually getting painful. They were only about 13 minutes apart though. This went on for a couple of hours, and then they just stopped. Hopefully my body made some progression. I am starting to get really excited! Besides... DH can't handle the stress!! LOL

babyblue2 - This is good news when is your actual due date? When do you go back to see the doctor. Rub your belly for me. Here is my very little update. I am on cd27/14dpo and my temp went down some from yesterday 98.46 to 98.39 and I also took a hpt and it was negative. Not real sure what to think. I know right about now I'm not feeling too good my b___bs were hurting yesterday and now they are not. My stomach just have this funny feeling in it. I am starving but I have no appet_te but the worse is I have a head cold and my nose is really stop up and this has never happened to me. My actual test date is July 9 and I am a__suming since I started AF this cycle on June 11 I should be getting AF between July 9-13 but my temp by now would have starting dropping but so far I am 13 days above coverline and the only dip in my temp was 7dpo and it went all the way down to 97.97 and I am pretty sure this was my implantation dip. Any advise you can give me would really help. Rub your belly for me. Krissy68
