FRIDAY TTC POST (who is trying to have a baby?)

Hi girls. I have the updated list. Welcome to our new posters. How has this week gone for you all??

Sheda ~ Congratulations on your bfp!! Have a happy and healthy nine months!

Sara ~ Sorry for AF. Better luck this cycle hon.

Sherry-Lynn ~ Hmmm. Just goes to show that we should keep bd until those solid crosshairs. But...on a side note. I got pg with Micah having bd 4 days prior because I got really sick and wasn't up to bd that cycle. So, it is possible!! GL

Cathie ~ Your last attempt meaning you won't be 'trying' any more? But, God willing it may still happen? I have been thinking of you this week as well. My heart goes out to you.

V ~ Sorry for the bfn this cycle. Hopefully this next cycle will do the trick. KUP

Maryn ~ Did you do your AI?

Nicole ~ Welcome to the list hon. Hope this cycle goes as planned and you get your bfp. You have a lot going on...what is happening?

Tanya ~ Good luck with your upcoming cycle and AI. Keep us posted.

Sandra ~ Welcome to the list. Hope your stay is short and with sweet results! KUP
