Dreams and Stuff

I have had my share of pregnancy dreams and baby dreams, even when not going through the TTC process. They are always positive and nothing too dramatic.

Last night, I had my first dream of a positive pregnancy test.
It was the first day of school, or perhaps the first day of a new trimester, and I cannot remember what grade I was teaching. I think it was supposed to be 7th, but the kids looked small. I was definitely in an elementary classroom with an old fashioned black board, as opposed to my nice white board that I currently use. I remember the chalk dust. For some reason, they had to do some sort of POAS test for everyone. (In a location that reminded me of my parents basement). They did two tests. One in a cartridge and one flimsy strip. One came back as a possibility, and the other as a definite. I excused myself and started crying.
Then my BBT alarm went off and I knocked the thermometer on the floor. =(

Every morning, I chart my BBT and for the past couple of mornings I have been asking FF to find "charts like mine." Today I just looked at pre-O temps and post-O temps. The first 4 charts were all pregnant. The last 6 were not. Really, it does me no good to do the search, but I enjoy looking.

I wish we could have talked about this instead of our money woes this morning. =)

What a great/weird dream. Hopefully it's not a dream after next week!

I can't even imagine the emotions following a first positive HPT. I can imagine feeling faint/hyper/nauseous all at the same time! Thinking its too good to be true...
I'm hoping for you...
I'm 3dpo today

I had a similar dream a few nights before our first insem. Thinking about a positive HPT gets me all teary--awake or asleep. Sometimes so much so that I just try and keep it far from my mind. You know, head down, soldier on, just keep swimming...and all that. Until it works.
