You all know dh decided to use protection this month. Because he was tired of trying, well guess what God wasn't. Yup you guessed it I got my BFP yesterday morning and yesterday afternoon , and yesterday evening and this morning. LOL Yeah I know issues. But wow I can't believe it the only thing I really did differently was assume it wasn't possible. I started taking a fish oil (Omega 3) supplument. and boom. I don't know wether to be nervouse, excited or scared because of my previous miscarriage. I haven't told anyone yet and need to tell you guys. I will probably tell dh this weekend but am kind of waiting for the right time. I kn0w he will be happy. But he has alot on his plate and I know it will worry him to. Then agian he swears he knows my cycles better than me so maybe h e will guess. LOL

Anyway for those of you that enjoy looking at charts here's mine for this month. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/ksdedee74 I am praying for you guys so much. Thank you all for sticking with me and putting up for me. The baby I lost would have been born July 4th. I was so not looking forward to that day. This is making me alittle less sad about that.Anyway got to go. I will check in with you girls tommorrow. Here's some baby dust coming ya'lls way!!!

This is fantastic! : D

So much great news - well done BFP ladies and I wish you a happy and healthy next 9 months! As for the rest of us - there's always hope!

Sorry to hear the docs messed up JenRenee - but maybe it is for a good reason because they will find out more because of the delay or somthing. Will pray.

Maharg - will pray you get some peace about all this and that the summer holidays prove to be full of life!

In my case fertile CM turned up the day after AF left, which happened to be the same day DH got back from abroad for the weekend (God's perfect timing?). Well we, er-hum, had a nice weekend, but if this weekend wasn't God's planning, it'll be another month as I doubt I will still be fertile by next weekend. So my 3ww(!) has now officially started! Excitement and dread in equal measures... although I also feel a deep awareness of it all being in God's hands and that he will do right, whatever that might turn out to be.

Oldest DS requested 3 little sisters this weekend. That should keep us busy for some time yet! But I'm game ;-)

I take a ttc / pregnancy / bf multivitamin which has 800 micrograms - but that is more than the official minimum. But like with vit C, you can't get too much. The body just flushes out what it doesn't need.

What Is Folic Acid?

Folic acid, sometimes called folate, is a B vitamin (B9) found mostly in leafy green vegetables like kale and spinach, orange juice, and enriched grains. Repeated studies have shown that women who get 400 micrograms (0.4 milligrams) daily prior to conception and during early pregnancy reduce the risk that their baby will be born with a serious neural tube defect (a birth defect involving incomplete development of the brain and spinal cord) by up to 70%.

So clearly I am taking double. Ah well.

Well, most pre-nates have 800 in them. I'm taking 400 + eating a lot of leafy greens, etc.

What a weekend! I actually talked DH into taking a sample in - so we will finally have his tests done - yay!! When I got there, she told me that I was supposed to have called first. I told her they never mentioned that and she said she didn't know if she could even get to it that day. As you all probably know, that's something that has to be done right away with a sample - and I was pretty upset! She must have been able to tell though, because then she said she would see what she could do. I got a call later that everything was fine and they got to it - so I should have results soon! Otherwise, I haven't heard from the clinic - they were supposed to call and let me know when I can go in for my tests. Hopefully soon!! Thanks so much for all of the prayers!!!

My DH is not a very romantic guy - but yesterday I was at my mom's and planning my sisters baby shower with my sis-in-law. When we got home, DH said he really wanted to have a baby, because he saw how I was enjoying the baby talk earlier about my sis. I can't believe he even noticed - and second, I can't believe I was getting excited about it. Usually I just get really sad... I guess it was just a good weekend for me. Hope everyone else had a great weekend too!!
