Yeah Monet! Congrats on your BFP! Have a happy and healthy nine months, and be sure to spread some baby dust around here okay.

How are my girls doing this week?? I wanted to apologize for not doing personals lately to each of you. I know I talk to a few of you in PM's. I just finished 2 classes and have to take a summer masters class in order to take a year off school. Just know that I am reading all of your journeys and rooting for you all and I am available in PM if you need me okay.

Baby dust to all!! I hope to be re-joining this list in August - I'll know more in a few weeks.

So what's it gonna be this week Shari - 1 BFP? that's my gut feeling!

Congrats Holly!  CD5.  Taking clomid right now.  My husband was supposed to go in for a SA today.  I hope he didn't forget!  My doctor said if his count is low, we can set up for an IUI this month.  I go back for ultrasound on July 3.  We will see what happens then.  Good luck this week all.

I am glad that everything is going well Shari. Sorry you are having to take a summer class!!

I am so happy for Holly!

I am not really TTC at the moment. After five blood tests, I got the news last night that I am officially now not pregnant which is great. After 14 days of bleeding and five subsequent blood tests throughout the last two weeks, I am glad that my body has finally decided I am not pregnant. I don't know when my next period will be so I guess end of August/September we will officially be back on the TTC train! If something happens between now and then, I will take it.

I wish everyone lots of baby dust!
