• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hope in the two week wait...

How do you girls (and guys, I havne't seen many is all!) keep your spirits up in the waiting bit - and not go crazy with waiting!

For me, I try to keep busy, but still things make me go, uh um, maybe I am, but maybe I'm not


This month is particually bad as I did ovulate (so the tests say, not so sure about the BBT as I haven't been constant enough!), and I have just had my op so should be super fertile supposedly!

Honestly, I just don't think about it. Not helpful, I know. I don't change my routine or anything. Get up, go to work, get stressed out about normal things etc.. I only tend to get antsy around 14-15DPO, and then I always end up getting the BFN hours before I get AF.

Maybe you could schedule some get togethers with some friends or family to help occupy your time and your mind? Try not to look things up on the internet like "pregnancy symptoms 'x'DPO" etc... LOL!

Yeah Kelly, I definitely do that and I do keep really busy, but it's those moments thinking that get me wondering :)

This is my first cycle in quite a while hoping for the best, rather than expecting the worst, so more emotions with it too :)

Ugh, I know exactly what you mean! Its SOOO hard to wait, especially once it gets really close to the time that you're supposed to start! Its hard for me, but I try to think of EVERYTHING else that I can. When I do think about it, I try and think positively. I pray too everytime!
