I lurk here for the most part but had been thinking about being more active on this board, I mainly lurk because sometimes I want to talk about my losses and sometimes I dont, I see from lurking that others kinda feel that way too and i really never know what to say. So about me, I was in the March ddc and when I left it wasnt too hard, I felt it coming and got ready for it ...I guess. But now that March is right around the corner all of a sudden its become harder for me, my edd was
march 12th. I then got got pg again in October but I never joined a ddc because I already knew that pg was going anywhere either, the pg test never got past a faint line and my beta was 24 at 13 dpo and then dropped to 11 at 15 dpo. So we started ttc again last cycle but got a bfn, and so this cycle was use Preseed, opks, honey and cinnamon, baby aspirin, lemon water, vitamins, extra folic acid and progesterone pills. Oddly enough my boobs have been hurting since Ovulation (this is odd for me) and they are only getting more painful and full every day (very odd for me) I kinda feel like I did in June with that pg, my boobs got sore at 5 dpo and then by 7 dpo a bra was optional, honestly I think the pg in june was good, I think it was a progesterone issue. My pg in October I had nothing, no signs. So I am hopeful for a bfp and a sticky baby this time, I have a good feeling about this one so I am praying it works out. Ill be testing Monday or Tuesday, and the other night I had a bfp dream and last night I had a baby dream...so we shall see.

So sorry for your losses  I'm glad you posted an intro! I know what you mean about sometimes wanting to talk, and sometimes not. That's something we understand really well here, that not everyone can read all of everyone's posts all the time. It's okay if you find yourself unable to comment on the BFP posts at first, or any of the "pregnancy mentioned" posts. TTCAL is a tricky place to be, and we all understand that

Thank you all for the warm welcome, Im hopng to make it to "testing tuesday" but these sore boobs are really making my head spin, Im so excited to test, yet so scared. I have used a couple IC's yesterday and today, not like I would expect to see anything but mainly trying to warm up for Tuesday so I can get rid of the testing jitters. I get so nervous about poas anymore, I can hear my heart beating in my ears as im poas and watching the dye move through the screen, or worse watching the hour glass blink a thousand times. I guess its all of the worries of "what ifs", what if its positive? what if its negative? I dont know if I could deal with another loss, so getting a bfp just start all those worries, I actually dont get too upset about bfns anymore because atleast I dont have the rest of the worry. Anyways, im sure Ill be a nervous wreck come tuesday.

I think I remember you from the loss board awhile back. I am so sorry for your losses
I know what you mean as well about not knowing what to say sometimes. I go through phases where I post a lot and then other times not so much. TTCAL IS a tricky place to be.
Even though I got my BFP, sometimes I still don't know what to say bc I still worry about losing this one. And I HATE to even type that because I am trying to be as positive as possible.
*hugs*
