So, the cat is out of the bag!!!! I told work on Friday. We had a meeting with all of the counselors and last item the agenda was "other". I said, "I have an other" and at that moment I unzipped my hoodie jacket to reveal a maternity shirt with my belly poking out. (I had been hiding it for a while) I patted my belly and said, "I'd like you all to meet my baby"....and I could barely get that sentance out because I was crying. Then, they cried. Then everybody yelled! All of a sudden the secretaries came down the hallway because they heard laughter and yelling. They all congratulated me and we were all teary eyed. It was great! They all know what I've been through this past year so they understood how good the news was. Then, last night we shared the news with my in-laws. I showed up to dinner in the same shirt. No one said a thing! They were all too scared to ask. Then my husband set down a picture album and told everyone to take a look. They saw the first picture that said 7 weeks. My dh said, "keep looking". Everytime they flipped through another week they said, "OMG"! They were all soooo happy, especially when I revealed the due date.....My sis-in-laws birthday! I'm calling the rest of my family today. It was quite a Friday!

Congrats to you Diem! Sounds like a great way to share great news!! Woo hoo!! You are right this is going to be a lucky thread...for all of us to get pregnant and stay pregnant!!! TWhit..you have to still keep thinking positive. May 16th sounds like a great day. I really don't feel any different except for cramping every now and then. They feel like AF cramps. You still have a week to go-it's early in the game. It's important to rest when you can. I think that helped me and not stressing. As for me, just counting down the days til Friday and school starts Tuesday for me this week!! Back to school. That will at least keep me busy.

So who still needs bfps? SaintRose, TWhit, Newmommy. Anyone else I accidentally missed? I can't believe there's only 3 of us left! I just know that this thread will see another bfp this month!!!

yes Diem I believe you are correct...Congrats on telling the fam, but have been so exciting!!! I am trying to stay positive, but I want to feel something just so I know....ya know? My boobs are normally sore by now with the impending af but nothing....so we'll see....newmommy I hope your enjoying yourslsef...k8 how are you doing? well off to go shopping....i will check in later

Yes Diem I belive there are three of us left. How many Preggy women are there now. I have lost count. I won't be getting my BFP this month... I have to use protection until I talk to the doc. But that is coming up on Wednesday. I think he will continue to want me using protection until something can be done about my condition. This is the first time in years I have tryed NOT to get pregnant :(

Congrads to you diem, I bet it was nice to finally tell family. If I get pregnant again, I have no idea when I will feel comfortable spilling the news.

SaintRose, I know what you mean about preventing pregnancy. When we were going through tests it was hard. I wanted to keep trying but doc said no. I was not totally comfortable telling work or my family, but I really didn't have a choice as I am starting to show. I am a petite person and it is pretty obvious to people that know me.

I'm still waiting on my BFP. I go in Tues for my b/w and u/s to see how many follicles 100mg of clomid produced this month.

Ok...so we have babyforcole, newmommy, Twhit, and SaintRose who will be getting BFP's very very soon...Please keep hanging in there and thinking positive. Babyforcole, good luck on Tuesday...I hope the clomid has helped produced many good quality follies. Newmommy, hope you are enjoying your vacation, can't wait to hear back from you. How are others doing?? I can't wait to start school on Tuesday, otherwise the days drag on. Can't wait til Friday!!!

Hi Ladies! Hope you all are enjoying the holiday weekend!!! It's sooooo nice to be able to relax. I love the title of this new thread. It is so true. We are all in this together and won't flip over to the other boards until all of us are pg. I just know there are more BFP's to come!!!!! BINA--Congrats on your numbers from Friday!! Great news! DIEM-- I am so happy for you!! That's great that you got to spill the beans at work and everyone was very excited about the new baby!! How are you feeling? BINA--How are you feeling?
K8-- What's going on? How are you feeling these days? I'll bet you're lovin the holiday weekend for all the naps you can take since you have the sleepies! That just means baby is growing and zappin all your energy. Rest up! Newmommy---- I hope you are having fun on your vacation! It's great to be able to focus on other things and just take a break from work and life. DH & I are heading to the beach for a week on the 16th of this month!!! YAY!!!! I am so excited!!!!! I am so glad I am feeling better too and can get in the ocean and swim in the pool the house has. It stinks waiting the entire summer to go on vacation but the prices of the houses are cut in half in Sept. So that means a bigger house and an inground pool that comes with it if we wait. It's crazy expensive to go in the middle of the summer. So we are gearing up for the trip, which is fun. TWhit---Don't lose hope. Not everyone experiences the same pg signs. I really didn't have any until after they told me I was pg. Hang in there.Did you have any side effects with the Clomid this cycle? Any mood swings or hot flashes? Well need to run help DH clean out the room for the nursery. We have been working on this all weekend. We've sold a ton a stuff on his intranet at work. For extra $$ go through your stuff and list it on Craigs List to sell. You would be amazed at how quickly things sell and how fast you can pick up extra $$$. We did that so we could pay for some of the stuff for the nursery. DH also sold his weightlifting bench to Play it Again Sports. I was soooo HAPPY to see that blessed thing go out the door. Ok....off to oversee the moving of the furniture.

Lucky did you already tell us if you had a theme for the nursery? I can't remember who told us. There are too many to keep track of now. Well my bobs are sore and I am cramping on and off, but these are both normal for me. So We'll see. Im still praying!!!!

Happy Labor Day ladies

Happy Labor Day!! Last day of rest before school starts!!

Hello, ladies! We got home from vacation a day early. We didn't do much---it was just a road trip. It was fun to get away, but it's nice to be back home. We probably would have been able to relax more if we would have picked a place to stay for the whole time instead of driving all day long. We were so tired driving all day until late at night that we didn't even BD---how bad is that??? Today is cd12. I have no idea when I'll o this month. We'll probably start BDing tonight. It's still hard every time I see my sister. I really think we're going to push for IVF. I couldn't help it---I thought about it every day. I'll post more later. DH and I are going to go do something with the pugs today.

UGH! Back to work. I hope everyone had a nice relaxing/fun weekend. I wish it would've been one day longer :)

ok girls I broke down and tested today and bought two cheap tests and both were BFP...I hope. The second line was very light!!! I will test again in the morning!! chant for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
