Hello all.....9 DPO here. I am in the land of "I don't have a clue" in regards to could I be or Not be pregnant. I was scheduled off today and my plan was to do a TON of fun stuff Saturday, Sunday & Monday.....NONE of it happened. I tried but suddenly my Mom got sick & that was that. Mom had some sudden INTENSE pain in her leg that radiated up to her chest...needless to say, all plans cancelled & she was my focus. The good news is, it wasn't a blood clot or anything heart related. (Thank God). It was Intense spasms from Kidney enzymes dropping due to a terrible kidney infection. Relief is now beginning and she has a ton of antibiotics & me & my father clucking over her like protective Mother Hens. I knew it was serious on Saturday because we walked into Walt Disney World, (The Magic Kingdom) and my Mom suddenly started limping.....15 minutes later, she was slurring her speech. I am sure you can imagine the thoughts that were going through my mind. Luckily, in reality it wasn't anything that bad. I have had a sick mother so long be it Cancer or diabetes I can sling needles and the like without even flinching. Sometimes I even wonder WHY I became a teacher instead of a nurse.
Anyhoo, the great news it that she is feeling better physically. Now, emotionally, that is moving along slower. My mother gets super emotional & depressed when plans are cancelled or altered because of her health. She is always telling me that one day I will finally get my life back when she dies. Hey, her meltdowns don't phase me, because the last thing my mother needs is another member at her Pity Party table. I give her Tough love because I love her....if I got depressed or crashed & burned all the time like she does...where they heck would she be?? My Dad simply isn't tough enough so needless to say I complete the roll. I do it because I love her & I KNOW when she was at her optimal health she would do it for me.
***Now, about this TWW....it is slowly going by. Sure I have been busy, but I still think about it over & over....in my head. In my deepest, deepest gut I feel a BFN this cycle but only time will tell. I will officially start testing on 10 DPO tomorrow night.......& I will continue until my period comes OR BFP. Have I broken down & tested RIDICULOUSLY early yet.........Heck Yeah, Partners. Of course you know it was negative but I HAD to get it out my system.
Hugs to all my Blog Buddies.....Baby Dust to us ALL.....:)

I'm sorry about your mom's kidney infection but so glad that it wasn't something more serious. I know what you mean about time standing still and that crazy urge to poas. Hang in there and I'm still hoping for your BFP this month.
Sorry the weekend was a bust.. but I am glad mom is okay :-)
The urge to POAS is so strong. I remember my first try I started POAS on 8 DPO! LOL!
Hugs my friend!
So sorry about the scare with your mom... I am glad she is okay though.
Keep your head up about the BFP... you never know! I am pulling for you Candace!
You can feel the BFN in your gut, but I think that's really more about self-preservation than reality. We hate disappointment, and rightly so. I so hope you are wonderfully, pleasantly surprised with a BFP in a few days! Glad mom's feeling better and that it was something manageable. Hugs backatcha!
Ummm, how did I miss this post? I am SO sorry your Mom fell ill. Glad to hear it was nothing serious, but DAMN, kidney infections hurt! I will light a candle tonight for her while I watch American Idol! I hope she gets well soon. And I pray there's a BFP right around the corner. Those TWW's are awful, aren't they? I pray time will fly by for you...
