Good morning. Thanks! You're right, I could. I have felt a couple twinges yesterday from my left side, so I was hoping that meant "growing pains," but I don't want to get my hopes up too much b/c I think if I was going to Ov this cycle they would've already grown, but you never know. Weird. But like I said before, I'm really not upset about it. I've been thinking for awhile now I'd probably have better luck with injectibles & that I was probably just spinning my wheels with Clomid. Sunday sounds like fun. It's so funny how birthdays tend to run in families. It's Feb. for my DH's family, his b-day & his sister's is just 6 days apart. His Aunt's bday is the day before his sister's. So I figure we'll have at least 1 kid with a Feb. b-day. :) Have you got a lot of gifts so far for Hunter? That's so cute what Hunter said today about whatever you want. You're right, kids say the FUNNIEST things. That's cool that you're having lunch with him today. Sounds fun! You're working tomorrow? But you're off today all day? Other than lunch with your baby, what else are you doing? Have a good day. Talk to you later!

well right now i am on my second episode of a baby story! i love that show and then i am going to head off to lunch with him and then i only have a couple of errands and then off to the gym and the tanning bed :) ilove that part!! dont get too discouraged yet about the u/s until you know for sure. and if it doesnt happen this cycle at least you have a plan!! that always makes me feel better! i cant wait till we are celebrating those BFP's!!!

ok well i am back. lunch was nice except he wanted toleave with me! lol i should have known that would happen. i got all my errands ran and now i am back home and dh just called and said "i forgot to tell you we are having a baby shower here tomorrow" so now i have togo and get a gift!!! men i could choke them. i think i am going to take a quick nap first. i have been so tired these past copule of days!! i dont know whats wrong with me. i hope you are having a great day and i will check back in....

Have a good nap! And fun at the gym & tanning bed. :) Yeah, I can how Hunter would rather go home with his mommy than back to school. Yuck. At least it's Friday & he's got the weekend. Men! Your hubby does sound like my hubby. Nothing like last minute, huh?! Are you okay going to baby showers? Or is it stressful for you? What CD are you on now? How long have you been feeling tired? Just wondering. You're right, there's no need to get stressed til I have my u/s on Sunday. But you know what, since I have a plan, I really am not too upset at all. You're right, plans help a lot. And I do like the idea of 2 WW where it's not in the back of my mind that I could be PG. You know what I mean? I know you've had too many of those lately, but for me it might be a needed break. Enjoy the rest of your day!

i am on cd11. it has only been like the past 3-4 days and its always in the afternoon. i fell completely asleep for 1.5 hours today woke up and felt good again. i have cut my carbs ALOT so maybe that has something to do with it. do you think it there is anything wrong? i just got back from getting the gift and ordering hunts cupcakes for his party on tuesday. they are going to be so cute. its in the shape of a basball mit and has a icing basball in the middle. its very cute. i do ok with baby showers i think. i get alittle jealous but i keep thinking it has to be my turn sometime in the near future!!! thats what keeps me going!! oh and then DH called and said "i forgot i am bringing the hamburgers tomorrow so c an you go pick up a box of frozen ones?" i had to go buy 40 hamburger patties!! and the darn buns! now i really think i will choke him!! have a great weekend and good luck on sunday! i cant wait to hear the good news!!

Thanks! I'll keep ya posted on what I find out Sunday. No big deal either way really. Awww, the cake sounds adorable. Hunter will love it, I'm sure. Maybe you're fighting something, & that's why you've been so tired lately. I wouldn't think it signals a problem. Wait--CD 11? Didn't you just O last week? You mean 11 DPO? If that's the case then it could be a good PG sign too, which is what I was hoping, but I don't want to get your hopes up. You didn't BD much this cycle but you did hit a key BD day, so there's hope! Have fun hamburger & bun shopping. It's always sooo nice when hubby's volunteer us for stuff & then give us notice at the last minute. Too funny. Have fun at the shower. You're right, your turn will come soon.

wow i didnt even think of that. i guess it could be.... i am extremely hungry this week but that isnt any different from the normal week before af shows up. i think that is probably the case with me being tired to. i Oed @ the 18th and we bd the 17th and the 19th and 20th. so i guess it could be possible but i dont think so. (esp according to my cm it was very thick.) just for kicks maybe i will test on hunters Bday! that would be kinda cool if i was and found out that day. i was also thinking that IF you do have your IUI on tues you could actually be getting pg on his b-day too. that would be so nice!! :) well heres to hoping!!!! have a great weekend

i hope that you are hving a great weekend! although it is almost over. they always seem to go by so fast! i cant wait to hear how your u/s went today i hope that you have great news tomorrow!! i am feeling better the past couple of days. i am not as tired. i really think i might have just had the effects of af's visit this week. i did test and it was a BFN as i thought. i tested yesterday at 11 dpo so i think it would have showed by then. i started last month on the 3rd so i am guessing by the end of the week she should be here. well i guess i will "talk" more tomorrow!!

Good morning! How was the shower? Yeah, AF can affect our bodies different ways. I usually get more hungry around AF time myself & I crave protein more. So tiredness could definitely be attributed to that. But I've still got my fingers' crossed for you. 11 DPO might still be a little early for a BFP. It's not over til AF shows her ugly self. Well, my u/s yesterday showed no follicle growth at all. DH was a little more optimistic than I was about a sudden growth spurt, so he was more surprised than me that we were cancelling the IUI. You're right, if I did have it I would've got PG on Hunter's b-day, awww, that would've been a good luck day. Oh well that's the way it works sometimes. I'm starting Provera tonite, but I'm a little scared b/c I broke out in a rash, minor rash but still..., last time I used it. But I was also out in the country too at Derrick's grandma's farm & I usually break out there so that could be the culprit too. Hard to tell. I guess I'll find out. I'm also going to call my doc today/tomorrow & get the lap scheduled. I was thinking the earlier I could get in next cycle, the faster I can start injectables & try some more.

godmorning mega! i am sorry about your cycle this month! i know you must be disappointed, however you do have a back up plan and that is great!! maybe this is all it will take :) i thin i should start @ wed. so we will be on similar cycles again. the shower went good i guess they had it at work. scott said theygot alot of stuff so that will help i am sure. other then your doctor apt how was yoru weekend?

Thanks. Yeah, I hope it's all it'll take. I feel like the lap is the best thing for me right now. I'm one of those people though that if I can't see something I don't really trust it & since we can't see what is happening "downstairs"...You know what I mean? Yeah, I definitely have a plan. Other than the drs visit, my weekend was pretty good. Didn't do too much, we saw Walk the Line Sat. Good movie. And I had lunch Sunday with a friend & her 10 yr old daughter. That was fun. Yes, if you get AF on Wed, we'll probably be a week or so apart again. I expect with Provera my AF will come next Thursday or so. I'm curious what happens to the follies that didn't develop. I guess nothing. I guess they stay as is til AF comes. Stupid question, I know. :)

thats so funny cause i was thinking the same thing. i guess they just go away and we grow new ones the next month? how soon do you think you will be able to get your lap done? its wierd now b/c i dont really have any sighns of af coming? the cramos have totaolly gone away which is wierd for me, so i have my fingers crossed that she still shows.. unless i am pg!! in that case she can stay away :) my weekend flew by b/c i worked on sat and thenn we had the Bday party yesterday. it was fun and i think everyone had a good time. it is hard to believe he will be 7 tomorrow it makes me want to cry!! they really do grow fast

7, wow. A big boy. Yeah, I've heard you're never prepared for how fast your babies grow up. Blink & you've missed it. Do you usually get AF signs a good few days before she's due? Is early cramping typical for you? So weird isn't it, how AF is different for all of us. I'm glad I'm not the only one curious about what happens to those non-developing follies. :) I'm hoping I can get my lap done in the next 2 or 3 weeks. My nurse told me it doesn't take long for them to get those scheduled. I have to ask my hubby again about his upcoming labor meetings so I can hopefully get it scheduled around his work. Though he said just get it scheduled & he'd work it out. There's no one else I'd want there when I wake up afterwards. Are you guys going to have a little family party for Hunter tomorrow on his actual B-day? Take him out to dinner or cook his fave. meal, something like that?

well i am taking cupcakes to his school tomorrow and on friday night he is having a sleep over with 2 of his friends and we are taking them bowling. he has gotten this thng about a limo in his head so we are calling around to see how much it would be to have one come pick us up and take us tothe bowing alley!! he would be so surprised!! if it is really expensive we are not going to do it but if we can get a deal it would be so fun for him!!! i am excited at the idea. that is good that it will not take that long for you to schedule your lap. get it all done and have the answers that you need. i normally have af cramps around a week before till the day of (very light) and this time i have only had a few off and on and none in the past couple of days. today i am alittle nausous but scott was to so i dont think that means anything. i am going to test tomorrow. it should show by then!! i will let you know but i am not holding my breath.

Probably not, unless Scott gets sympathy morning sickness! :) Ha! But still it's always a possiblity til AF comes. Well, that'll be nice for Hunter, cupcakes at school tomorrow. And if you can get a limo--what a special surprise that would be. Riding to the bowling alley in style! I'd definitely call several companies, there could be a great varience in rates. I know it can get pretty expensive, but I'm thinking since this is "off season," not really in the wedding & prom time you might find a decent deal. Good luck! And good luck tomorrow with the HPT--I can't wait to hear the results. Fingers' crossed for good news. I've said before, I'll say again, I really think within the next couple cycles you'll get a BFP. You're either on track or almost on track. I hope Phyllis is right about being able to get in pretty quickly for the lap. I'm really driving myself nuts with the "self-diagnosis" & I really want to know the real story.

looks like the limo ride is a no-go. the cheapest i can find is $135 for an hour and i just dont see the point in that. scott is going to call around b/c he is better at that then i am. i know what you mean about self diagnosis!! i do that all the time :) i hope that you are right about the next couple of cycles for me as well as you. that would be greatto head into the summer with lil ones on the way!! i know hunt will be so excited when it finally happens!! and i am sure that your dh will be OVER the moon!! heres to those wishes coming true this year!!!!
