No, it was not really spotting. It was the amount that would equate to the tip of a toothpick. That was last night. I usually have spotting before af comes but this was just different. I have never had a child so all of this is so strange to me. Even though I have read about a million different symptoms I am still not sure of what to expect. How are you feeling now? Any sign of that ugly witch?? LOL Keep me posted. I am still confessing and believing you will get your bfp!!!!!

Good morning all, Well, cd30 and still no af, horrid symptoms all night but still NOT here, I unfortunately used all my tests so will wait it out. I'm going to test Thurs a.m if not here yet. Thank you for your prayers, you are really sweet. As for the bleeding, that could be it. I have never had it but some women do. They say implantation is usually around 6 or so dpo. So that could be. When is you test day? The wait is awful isn't it. I just keep telling myself, it will be all in His timing, and if I'm not there is a perfect reason why I',m not. BUT, that is very hard to accept most often, as I totally like to run my own show-lolol. I'll keep you posted ttyl

Af just arrived, feeling blah. Thinking this might be the last month ot ttc, ttyl

I am so sorry Lovemy3. ((((Hugs)))) Please remember that God's seeming delays have a reason...I do not pretend to know what the reason it...believe me if I did I could answer my own questions. I just know I will keep thinking of you and praying for you. What is one thing you like to do that makes you happy...whatever that is plan some special time to just go do it. :o) Don't let go of your dream lovemy3...if you really want this baby don't give up hope.

Thanks Angel kitty, I do want this baby but what if its not in the plan God has for me? Would He not remove the desire? Time is ticking so quickly every month, lost fertility. But I know with God all things are possible, look at Sarah and Abraham-lets hope I'm not going to be that old-lol. Feeling better, my prayer is that the desire is to be removed if its not in the plan for my life. So, now its up to you!! You go girl-lol. When is test day? How are you feeling?

Lady I know what you mean when you say you do not want to be Sarah's age...I just said that to DH when I was crying the other night. :o) I think I told God that this morning during my quiet time with Him. Too funny. I think you are so wise to pray for God to remove the desire if it is not His plan for you. He will do the right thing for you - He loves you that much. I feel fine..no cramps. Just hungry. I do not usually have any symptoms of AF coming or at least not enough that I would know. I am getting more intune with my body during this process. If AF does not show I will test on Monday of next week. Pray for me!!!!

Hi there, I am definately praying you. How many month have you been trying so far? I hope this time next month you have BFP and all is right in the world! I am feeling much better. I do feel I will have another baby, and I just have to be patient and wait. Gods promise is to give the desires of our heart, hoping He doesn't chnage my desire-lol. I really feel it is going to happen, but not knowing the timetable is hard. I'm rooting for you!

Hi Lovemy3, I was thinking about when you wrote time is ticking and it is lost fertility, I think about that all the time, like I am losing all these eggs every month, 4-5 mature ones (with meds) and I'm like what the heck, I just need one for God's sake. It seems so pointless to get a period and nothing happening, after all, weren't our bodies designed to have the miracle happen. My mother in law just told me last weekend that there was a baby in the nursery at her hospital that was crack addicted and another one that the mother was an alcoholic. All I have to say is why is it those women, who do drugs and drink alcohol have optimum fertility and perfect timing, while there is us, who are doing and eating everything good and staying away from coffee can't get pregnant. This is the ironic part of the whole thing I just have a hard time with. I sometimes feel like I better go eat junk food and party all night long and then it will happen! It's not fair. Sorry, this turned into such a negative post by me. Just venting.

Hi Linds99, I agree, doen;'t make sense and it is very frustrating. I called my ob office and have decided to go back in for weekly appointments with the dietician. I think weight is a big issue maybe in my case. I am a lot heavier this time around ttc and maybe that could be effecting things. Do you ,know much about that?

Linds,that was funny. Your post always make smile. I had to laugh at the coffee thing...I still drink coffee -just decaf. The other day my DMIL had made a pot of reg coff and I had some of it and I truly felt like I was doing drugs. One thing is for sure...I ahve become a ton healthier since I have been ttc!!! I can understand your negative emotions...we have all had them. I just try to stay positive...and believe me, I am a work in progress!! Lovemy3 I know what u mean about the timetable...if God would just say "You will have your a baby on such and such a date" I would be ok. I could handle that. :o) But i guess that would not help me develop patience!! That is the hard part. Sometimes I just want to scream - Tell me when it will be and I will quit bugging you Lord!!! I believe all three of us are going to have kids and very soon. :o)

Hey lovemy3, I just posted a link to another girl's question today about weight and fertility. It was on the Today Show today...here it is http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15391084/

angelkitty, seriously I can't have coffee. I am on metformin and it is bad, even decaf, to take the combination of coffee and metformin...so I am just functioning on "fruit" highs in the morning. Seriously, I wish God would just let me know when my kids are coming too, that would really make this TTC crappola a lot easier to deal with. Does anyone else here feel like they lost a whole year of their life? I have, being preoccupied with this stuff for 12 months now. It is sick.

We have been ttc since July 05. In June 06 we finally had fertility testing done. Had the HSG in September. Doc had to open my cervix at the same time. I remember being sad about getting af before September of this year but I was not on the emotional rollercoaster. I would be sad and that was it and I would go on. But since the hsg and opening of my small cervix I jsut knew I would fall preg easily after that. All of the women in my family are fertile myrtle's and I just knew I would be too. September and earlier this month were really hard. I was ashamed and felt as if I were a failure. Then I found all of ya'll and it has helped. That book I told you about - The Conception Chronicles really helped me to laugh and realize there are a lot of couple going thru this...not that that fact makes my pain any less but at least I know there is hope. Ladies, we are going to make it too. Patience!!! Linds, after you have your baby I will send you a gift card to starbucks or a coffee place so you can get a big cup of coffee!!!!!!!!!! :o) Lovemy3 thanks for the prayer!!!!!!!!!!

So you have been ttc for over a year now, and you haven't lost your sanity yet. Gee, that gives me hope too. Sometimes I feel like I go to bed at night happy because I completed another day that is closer to the day I actually conceive. Is that not sick or what! It is in essence all I live for right now. When your fertility is threatened, you feel like you want to have a child even more and quicker don't you? I remember when I first started trying, I was like "whatever", ever since I found out I have PCOS, I'm like "Oh my God, please let this happen now!" The waiting is excrutiating. You are so funny to offer me a starbucks gift card. Right now, it would be like walking into a gas chamber in Auchwitz and would kill me! Bring me to my knees in pain, for not being able to have a darn sip.

Linds, you are too funny!!!

Hi there. Linds, read the story o n weight, so if I am still still seeing a pos. surge and my eriod is same time every month, is it affecting my ferilty? Period is same and ovulation seems to be occuring. Can you have PCOS and still have regular afs? Mass confusion. Both of your patience is an inspiration, I tried 3 months last year and aug, sept, andoct this year and am already whining, sorry for being such a whiner. ttyl
