ROBYN - October 3

Good morning ladies, Kelley I agree with you what a scumbag. He executed those children. I think they said the youngest was only 6 yoa. He picked that school because it was close to where he was and there was no security. How f'd up is that!!! KATT I also want to lose weight. I lost 27 lbs from Slim Fast about 5 years ago. I also just looked into Nutrisystem. My sisters sis-n law lost 15 lbs in 4 weeks. She looks great. I looked into that its a little over 300 bucks for 5 weeks of food. So I think I am gonna try it. CMEL - we need to catch up on any IVF news. We just got some of DH's stocks cashed in and got a check yesterday for 22000 so that actually covered all the 6 cycles just not the meds. So now we are gonna send a check away to Integramed. Only 4 more pills left of Prometrium then we start the bcp's. I cant believe youre already bloated i am nervous about feeling like that didnt get that much with Clomid. Are you getting mood swings or any other side effects ??? Anyway will check in later. CYAS

Missed you girl. I hear ya about the truck seat, haha, my hubby and I (b4 marriage) traveled for work in a Ford Ranger for nearly 3 years! We lived in motels, etc - there was no need having a home cause we were always gone - that damn seat got mighty old! JAMIE_ Ebay that dress! ROBYN_ Thanks for the heads up on the lilies, my moms was gonna bring me some cuts - I'll tell her not to. KELLEY_ I'll keep you posted on the Chantix - maybe you can get it after you deliver that is if you're not breast feeding...? JEN_ Thanks! I am going to slimfast.com later to restart my program.

Hey Ladies - well had another follie check today - looks like about 18, however my dr. said they will retrieve as many as they can but my left ovary is kind of hard to get too so they may not be able to retrieve the eggs from that one. I take my trigger shot tonight at 8:30pm and then go in for my ER thursday at 7am and then the ET on Tuesday of next week!! They are going to write me a dr.s note so i can take off work for a few days and rest after the ET. Hey Slow good to hear from you! Robyn hope the cat is ok! I know dont you love being off work, i could sure be a stay at home mom (hopefully soon)! Kelley i know how horrible about that shooting - there are some crazy people in this world! Robyn i actually havent really had any s/e except for the occasional bloating and i seem to be really tired lately too! So you start the bcps in a few days!! YEAH!!

 

LeslieK - October 3

hello ladies: sorry I didn't check in much here for the past couple of days, we were super busy this weekend painting the exterior of our house. It looks so much better, but it takes so long. Then on Sunday my daughter had 2 basketball games and about 2 min. before the 2nd game she started her period for the first time! The poor thing, she was worried it was going to drip down her leg the whole time and she had cramps so she ended up not playing most of the game which was frustrating for her 3 male coaches, but afterwords I explained to the head coach discreetly, and he understood (he has 3 daughters). She's fine about it now but we've been a little emotional and having to buy every pad known to man. Last night I made her favorite dinner and a cake to "celebrate" her milestone. She thought it was fun and boy is my husband a good sport. His life sure has changed in the last 2 years, from bachelorhood to marriage in 6 months, TTC, a pregnant wife and a new daughter who now has her period. Do you think Hallmark has a card to send him? Good luck Melissa on the retrieval, I'll keep checking to see how its going. When do they do the transfer? Robyn, when do you have your ER? Katt - sounds like you are getting on quite the life plan here. I'll try to join you after the baby comes. I can't wait to wear my old clothes again. I agree Rhonda - a supportive wife and friend are all one needs for a birthday present! Plus you're carrying the ultimate present for him :) Jamie - good to hear from you, I hope you get a chance to breathe soon here! oh yeah Melissa - go somewhere hot and exotic so I can live vicariously through you. Brooke - happy early anniversary! How long? Okay, I'm going to go put my feet up and rest for a few minutes here. have a great rest of the day everyone!!

Hey Leslie - wow a lot going on there for you! Wow so dd got her period - i remember i got mine on new years eve - my mom was with me too - how old is she? I didnt get mine till pretty late age 16. Well i took the trigger shot tonight at 830pm and go in 730am thursday for the ER and then Tuesday the ET, very exciting stuff! Keep your fingers crossed they get all my eggs out safely and they fertilize!!

 

wannabeamom - October 4

cmelissa, I am wishing you all the best for your IVF. How exciting! It seemed like yesterday you started telling us about having to do IVF! GL sweetie!

 

kelley32 - October 4

Morning!!! CMEL ... sending safe egg retrieval and fertilization vibes your way!! I truly hope that everything goes well. LESLIE, wow, she got her period, I was pretty upset when I got mine at 12 years old, I was pretty much a tomboy. Loved the crack about the Hallmark card, too funny! KATT, they don't know yet what caused the overpass to collapse, but one theory is because of salt deterioration ... we have to use alot of salt on our roads due to our harsh winters ... only thing is that it causes road problems, as well as rusts our cars quicker. I will be breastfeeding, so no RXs for me, but I think I may join your fluffy club, only thing is that I have heard that losing alot of weight while breastfeeding is not recommended becasue as you lose the fat, toxins are released into your system, which ends up in breastmilk ... I'll have to ask the doctor. ROBYN, how's the kitten? Hi to everyone else ... and have a wonderful day!!

 

PoohBear - October 4

Hi Ladies! Hows everyones morning going? Two days of parent teacher conferences down and two to go. I only have I think three today which will be nice if they show up. Ive only had two show up so far. Tomorrow i have ten so that will be a long day. Kelley- I so agree with you on that shooting. It is sick and scary to think what people are capable of doing to harmless children. How are you feeling today? You will have to let me know what your dr says about the losing weight while breastfeeding. Katt- yep Im due around Christmas time but they think it may be sooner because he's so big. Me and dh are starting to get so excited. At least my son will be blessed with lots of loving wonderful aunts. I only have the one brother so he will only have the one official uncle. cmelissa- good luck with the ER and ET. I'll be praying for you. Leslie- How funny about the card. I remember when I got mine. My mother said the curse of becoming 13 because all of the girls in my family got it right after or right before turning 13. How are you feeling? Hello to anyone I forgot and hope you all have a wonderful day.

 

bl - October 4

Melissa, I'm wishing you the best of luck tomorrow for the er. Do they have to put you out for the procedure? Jamie, It's good to hear from you. It sounds like you've been busy. What month can you start ttc again? Leslie, I was laughing out loud about the card for dh! He sounds like a good sport! I hope dd is feeling okay. Katt, I hope you and dh can relax this weekend and try out the rx just for fun!!! Christine, Oh you give me flasbacks with the conferences! I remember how much work goes into teaching. Kelley, how many more weeks do you have? Thank you all for the early Anniv wishes. Dh actually sent me beautiful flowers today, a day early to surprise me! Tomorrow we're going to get drinks and app and then go get a massage! The last time we went together was on our honeymoon. Then on Friday for his b day we're going out to dinner with 11 people. We're going to a Japanese restaurant where you take your shoes off and sit on the floor. It should be lots of fun. Oh, a/f finally showed today. I'm actually happy because I've been spotting for days nad was getting worried that she wouldn't show this month. So yes, as stange as it sounds, I'm happy the witch is here.

Katt - October 4

ok I am back! KELLEY_ salt sounds like a good culpret - they use a sand mixture here. Yeah, talk to your doctor...correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't breastfeeding help to shrink the uterus, etc quicker? CHRISTINE_ Always good to be blessed with a large family. BROOKE_ I hope so!!!! AF should be arriving in a few days here too, oh the joy. Hi RHONDA! Well not much to report here. I pick up my Rx fior the Chantix tomorrow - that darned pharmacy said it was in stock and it wasn't oh well. I am a bit scared. I know it sounds stupid or silly, whatever, but I been smoking for 18 long years and it's like my crutch. Yes, a piss poor thing to have to lean on, lol but that's all I know. I sure hope these pills do the trick! Ok well I have a siteor two to check out and then hittin the bed for TV time, lol. Hellos to everyone I messed. Love you ALL!
