Thanks Erin and Ana! I really appreciate your support.

Thank you soooooo much Erin for remembering me!! I have been thinking of you a lot. How are you? How is the summer?

My beta is 7/29 but it is our Indepedence Day Holiday, so I will have to wait until 7/30. I have waited for this a year, in fact almost 4 years.... so one more day won't kill me!

Love!

Hey Claudia,

I have an ultrasound tomorrow and bloodwork on Thursday. I am praying I get the go ahead!

How are you feeling...anything out of the ordinary? Are you going to POAS?

Lotsa love!

Erin,

No Poasing for me here! Tonight I had a huge scare...went to the potty and saw to thin lines (as thick as a pen) in my pantyliner. OMG!! I felt a hole in my stomach. I have been doing my research and I am calmer now but still terrified that it has not worked. I have been feeling cramps, twinges, moodiness, tummy tightness in the 2 ww. We will see what this week holds for us.

I really hope you have also news this week!! I will be praying for you.

Besos y abrazos!

Claudia,

How has everything been? It sounds like you are having implantation bleeding, you seem so calm, if I had to wait an extra day, I would be going crazy. I just have a really good feeling about this for you.

Thank you my dear friends for your messages!

Dre, thanks for the e-mail. More thanks for stopping by here!! How are you feeling??

Ana, could you please send me the link to your webpage to take a closer look to the girls. It is hard to believe they are 7 months!

Erin, how is everything at your end? I am wishing all is good. You better than anyone know how long it took me to cycle again and have a BFP. I am sure IT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU TOO!!
I have some symptoms but I do not know to blame the progesterone or the pregnancy. It is only mild: dizziness, tiredness, boobs bloated but not soared, cramps, moodiness.

BTW: I am so cautious about this time, that only our parents, you and my thread knows about BFP.

I am here trying to relax and focus on positive thoughts for tomorrow's beta. I feel so thankful to all of you!

Love!
