Cherylyn R's Diary Entries

August 29, 2000

Hi everyone! Well, another week has passed. It is again Tuesday and here I am writing another entry. I really thought Sunday that I would have to miss this week's entry. I was in so much pain that I didn't want to leave the house. I really didn't want to leave the house, drive downtown to the library and go to a computer lab for an hour to catch up and write an entry. Thinking hurt! Sunday was my worst pain day. According to Dr. Thompson, this is to be expected. Why didn't he tell me beforehand that I would feel better and then feel much worse? I think this is all a joke to him. Let's see who comes back in a week and tries to kill me! I would have liked some kind of warning! I am doing fine healing wise. That is nice to know now, but over the weekend would have been a better time to tell me! Oh well, I am done complaining for now!

On to better things! I am on CD14 and am nearing my expected O date. This week has been interesting considering that I didn't even want to think about BD until yesterday! I was all ready to not even try this month and then I had this dream. I usually don't remember my dreams if I do dream. This one really stuck with me. Before I tell you I want to say that my DH and I both want a girl. I would be happy with a healthy baby but we really want a girl. I was 8 months pregnant and I went into labor. My mom and someone else was with me in the delivery room. I have no idea where Tony was! I blacked out during the whole thing and woke up after. My baby was nowhere to be found. I kind of panicked and that got the baby brought to me. It was a boy. It was the most perfect baby I had ever seen. He was so real to me! We took him home (Tony got there at some point!) and it was just amazing. I think I dreamed about four days.

When I woke up it was a shock to me that my reality was pain and not a baby. I just wanted to cry! I know that it might not sound like much but it was so real to me. I have dreamed about having a baby before but I have never really seen the baby. This time I did and it really touched me. I want that baby!

Because of this I renewed my efforts this month and BD'ing fest for August/September is on! I had even stopped charting because of the pain but now I am feeling better and back on track! My husband thinks I am crazy!

Well, not much else happened due to my home confinement so I am going to end this now. Good luck to everyone and lots of *********** dust for all!
