Hey girls, thanks for the comments, it means a lot to me.

I still don't think I'll be posting in my journal as such, certainly I won't be symptom spotting and all that fun stuff but you are not rid of me that easily! I'll still be hunting you all down!

Aww hun, what a shit she got you. I'm so sorry.
It must be so difficult with DH away so often. My DH served two tours in Iraq, which drove me to the point of insanity. Although we weren't really TTC back then.

Hang in there. I know you don't want to get your hopes up. But you can't live in depressedville either. Its ok to hope he makes it home in time. Think positive sweetpea. I'm 29 and will be 30 in January. I often think the same as you because I want 3 kids too!! (Mind you DH said he's going to be happy with 2....little does he know!!) So I have the same fears.

Hang on tight honey, it's a crazy ride

Thanks a lot Ney. Now that the hormones are settling down again as the prepares to leave me again I think I'm actually looking forward to two months of not thinking about it, if that makes sense? We'll because we want to, when we want to, not because 'it's the right time', or 'we should'. That'll be nice!!

Nic Ive only just had chance to sit and read some more journals and now youre leaving us for a bit

I understand why though , you need a break for a bit and I bet itll be this period where you're not symptom spotting etc and not timing your that you get a . Really hope so chick, you deserve it.

Hope you still be popping in on the threads, was just looking forward to you dropping by my journal (I dont have many buddies on here!! ) and so dont be a stranger!

I was just posting on Rupmskins journal the very important message:

URGENT MESSAGE: I have sent the ugly packing on a cruise and she's off sailing around the carribean for a few months, well I will now get her to extend her holiday away just so you get chance to squeeze in a couple more cycles too. Shes going to leave us in peace to get our bfp's. How does that sound x

Michy

Oh hun no please don't go! So sorry she got you, I hate her.

miel

Hey girls, I'm not going from the website - oh no, you don't get rid of me that easily!!! Its just that I'm not going to be kidding myself and keeping a ttc journal - there's nothing to note down after all!!! I'll still be watching your journeys and posting in the main forum

I was really surprised to find my journal back on page 1 - I was looking on page 3 and thought I had really slumped down the ranks!!! I think that carribean cruise sounds just perfect Franj!!

I did want to post for my own records though that today (CD 5) I've got spotting. Very odd as the witch left on Tuesday and she doesn't normally leave anything behind for me!! It's just odd and maybe something I should note in case it happens again. Maybe its part of the shorter cycle pattern? I don't know but over time I'll work out if its a blip or a regular trend.....

And I have pushed down the 'but mum had periods when she had my brother' thoughts - that's just going to drive me back around the bend.

Oh, and just back from the outlaws who are proud grandparents again. my BIL & SIL had a little girl, 4 weeks early. She was 4lb 12oz and apparently is tiny & perfect. Really pleased for them as that was the couple who went through unsuccessful IVF before conceiving naturally two years later.

NeyNey

Thats great news about your BIL and SIL - Congratulations!

You sound in good spirit, which is fantastic

I'm watching you...

Me too, congrats on the new family addition. I promise your time will come, it has to come for all of us or we'll all be 85, logging onto this forum after getting our pensions and talking about the years when we ttc! That cannot be us, can it, so it will happen, it will happen , it will happen Im sure of it.
