Today is going so slow. I am ready for it to be tomorrow 1 because it is Friday and 2 because AF will be here full force I hope and I can map out my cycle this month maybe. I finally buckled down and called my RE office and my nurse is gone till Monday so I'll just get in touch with her Monday. It said to leave a message and one of the other nurses will call back but I don't really know them yet so didn't want to get to involved with them for them to just pass me back to my nurse. I love my nurse and my RE. They are great. I'll probably have to go to another consultation I am supposing but if that happens who knows when I'll get in and that'll put this cycle at a bust if he did want to do something. UGH!! So annoying. I made a new thread on this forum "vent about your infertility here" so if you need a really good vent section go there too. Of course post it here but then go post there to for some more sympathy. LOL!! OK, I guess I should really get to work. Not done two dollars worth of work today. I am usually really good about working but today I am off. Maybe because of AF pending. Later!!!

It's all AF's fault, Mommy! That's why we have "monthly" cycles, to blame our unproductiveness on. :) Well the wait til Monday gives you more time to compile lots of questions to ask your fave. nurse then. How dare she take leave the office for a couple of days?! Don't nurses know we need them chained to their desks just in case we need something from them?! LOL! I'll check out your venting thread. Good idea!

Mommy and Mega- Yes us nurses know how you need us ALL the time! LOL:)
Mommy good go hear from you. Sorry things aren't going as well as you would like.
Mega my fingers are crossed that af rears her ugly head for you this weekend.
Have a great thurs. Grey's is on tonight I am so excited!

Morning girls- Not much time this morning -busy, busy, busy! :) Baby - I had that same pain when I was just around 8 months - they told me mine was round ligament pain and when I researched it, I knew that was exactly what it was. It hurt so bad I could not walk. I had to stop and catch my breath a couple of times when it happened. I forgot about all of those "fun" little things that go along with pregnancy. Like the hemmorhoids! :) TMI - sorry girls - that was HORRIBLE! But.....in the end it all resulted in Raegan, so I will not complain. Well, like I said I am swamped today so I need to move. You all have a GREAT weekend. My husband is taking my step-son to the rodeo in Columbus this weekend - they will have a blast and Raegan and I are going bowling with her babysitter's family - that should be entertaining! :) Talk to you next week.

 

mommywannabe - January 19

Well if that was the start of AF yesterday, where is she today. LOL! I had barely some spotting yesterday and it was the 'ole brown stuff and today nothing. WTF??? LOL!! Oh well. I'm sure she'll be here ragging over the weekend. Just my luck.

 

Mega - January 19

Yes, Baby, NO VACATION for you nurses. Ever! LOL!! No, just kidding. That only applies to fertility clinic nurses. L&D Nurses can go on vacation, occassionally. :) Mommy--Hope AF shows for you in all her glory this weekend. So you can get a move on. JSmith enjoy your "girl's weekend!" I'm sure the boys will enjoy theirs. A rodeo, hee ha! :) Well I think I know why AF is a no show for me...I truly thought it was due to my cyst that showed on the u/s in Nov. confirming the blighted ovum. I know it's still there b/c it's been hurting. I indulged on Wed. at my fave. Indian restaurant for lunch. My friend & I ate the buffett lunch special. Yummy! But oh my gosh I had to quit eating my left side where my cyst is HURT so bad. It would have to be bad for me to stop eating, let me tell ya. So I truly thought that was the culprit. But for GP, I took a HPT this afternoon. Guess what?! BFP!!! I have my beta tomorrow, I'll keep ya posted. Crazy no?!!! Oh I hope this is for real this time. I'm a little afraid to get my hopes up too high, but it's hard not to at the same time. So we'll see...

 

mommywannabe - January 19

HOLY SHI#! LOL!! No farking way Mega. How funny is that crap. It's almost one of those things you want to laugh at in a way. Like OMG, no way. LOL!! Not that I am laughing but you know what I mean. How weird. Definitely keep us posted. Holy poop on a stick. LOL!!

 

Mega - January 19

Ya know, that was my reaction too! :) LOL! I know right, all that irony. Crazy. It is funny, I agree, in an ironic kind of way. I'll definitely keep ya posted...I would no clue how to date it, no clue when I O'ed but I figure it would've had to have been about 4 weeks so if this isn't a high beta then I'll know it's another blighted ovum I guess. I wish though I knew what HCG # I need to see to breathe easier.

 

BabyRN - January 19

HOLY CRAP MEGA!!!!! I CANT BELIEVE YOU GOT A BFP!!!!! THAT IS SO EXCITING! Ok I will stop screaming now. LOL. What a great way to celebrate your weekend. You are getting an hcg tomarrow? You must post and let us know your #'s I have to work tomorrow so you have to post before 6pm. Jeez that is so great! Isn't your IVF thread having lots of luck lately? Let us keep our fingers crossed for you. Cautiously optimistic! I have good feelings about this though. JSmith have fun with your dd this weekend. Bowling with kids is always and adventure. Mommy hope you have a good weekend. We have pos vibes now so af needs to rear her ugly face so you can get your bfp too! I will be checking in freq. tomorrow mega. So post soon. TGIF~ Ericka

 

Mega - January 19

Thanks Baby! Yeah, you're my 2nd Holy Crap, Mommy was my 2nd Holy Sh**t too! :) Ha, ha, ha. Yeah, it was totally not what I was expecting to see. Didn't think I was that lucky really. But just in case I am I ran out & bought a lotto ticket tonight. LOL! I usually find out the beta results around 4:30 or so on Saturdays so I will post as soon as I know. I promise! Hopefully it'll be before 6 or I might have to leave you in suspense for awhile. Cautiously optimistic--yeah, sounds good. That's how I'm feeling. It's so funny but my mom swears she had a m/c the month before she thinks she conceived me. So maybe I'm repeating that trend. How weird would that be??!!!! Actually yes, the IVFers thread has been lucky lately. There are 3 preggos actively posting now, 1 is pg with twins. I hope this is the next lucky thread!!!

 

JSmith - January 20

Holy Crap Mega - that totally caught me off guard - I am so excited for you! Let us know your numbers - I'll start praying for you and your little one now. I am at 28 days today, but my cycle will probably run 35, but I think we are done trying. The longer it goes on and the older my dd gets the more I am re-thinking our decision to try. Well, lots to do today for our family. Just wanted to say Congrats to you Mega! Have a great weekend ladies!

 

BabyRN - January 20

UGHH, it is 0840 on SAT morning. WHY AM I AWAKE????!!!!! I guess my body is prepping for baby. Going to bed late, getting up early, and not sleeping well through the night. Mega you haven't posted your results yet?!?! JK. thinking of you and keeping my fingers crossed for you today! GOOD LUCK!! JSmith~ You have to make your TTC decision carefully, You need to do what is right for you and your family. I hope that just because you don't think you are going to TTC you are going to leave us. I know I still look forward to hearing what is going on in your general life. Oh, by way how was bowling with dd last night? Did she beat you? LOL! Have a great Sat. I will be checking in frequently Mega!! LOL.

 

Mega - January 20

Baby--Would you believe, 2 hours later & still no result yet? Geez! Just jokin'...They said they'd call after 2 PM, I hope it's like 2:05 or something, that's after 2. Impatient me? Nah. Er yeah! I admit it. Yikes, Colton is waking you up early huh? Aw he's just training mommy early is all. Men, er boys!!! I'll post when I know something. I'll even kick DH off the computer if need by. JSmith, thanks! Yeah, it caught us off guard too, in a good way though. Thanks for the prayers too. Sounds like you've made up your mind, & maybe for now putting it on the back burner is the best thing for you. TTC definitely definitely takes a lot out of a gal. And you've been thru so much with the depot, the endo, the surgeries etc. And sometimes by stepping away the thing you wanted the most comes true anyway. I hope that works out that way for you. And of course you may decide after taking some time off from TTC, that you want to try again later. Anyway, do what's right for you. But as Baby said, we'll miss you. Please keep posting with us. And you're still in the game this cycle. You know it's funny but before I got my BFP I was thinking to myself how funny it is but while my desire for a baby is still strong I don't know I just felt more at peace. Then I find out I'm pg, so go figure...

 

BabyRN - January 20

Mega........where are you......???????

 

Mega - January 20

Baby, Thanks for checking in! I didn't get the call from the clinic til 5. Yeah, a bit later than I was led to believe. Didn't they know I was pullin' my hair out here! Geez! Sorry for the suspense! But anyway ladies, my beta is 2, 491 and prog. level is 18.9 so I'll be starting Prometrium again tonight this time jamming them up my vajayjay twice a day rather than orally. Never did them vaginally before but beats the PIO shots so I'm not whining. I go back for beta 2 on Monday. Not sure what the rise should be by then though. Doubling slows once it hits 1200, I believe. And of course we don't know truly how far along we are, but I think this is a good number. The dr on call said for a 1st beta this is awesome so he was happy with it. They all seem incredulous that this happened before I even got my 1st AF post m/c. Yeah, them & me both! Baby, don't work too hard tonight. Ladies, I hope you all are having a great weekend! JSmith, have fun bowling. Should be an adventure!

 

BabyRN - January 21

Mega- You are making me post illegally at work. That is so awesome. Your numbers sound very promising. I am getting teary at work. Darn hormones. LOL. I wish I could see you so you could tell how excited I am for you. It is hard to express over the internet! I can't believe you are pg. Is your dh sooo excited. How did you tell him this time? Holy cow I just can't believe it. TOTALLY AWESOME!!!! I am sooo happy for you! I had to take progesterone vaginally during the first 10wks of my pg too. They are waxy bullet like things right? If so have fun, they are messy and gave me a yeast infection, which of course you can't use anything vaginally for yeast infections till the 2nd trimester so you are stuck with a red itchy vajajay. But let me tell you it is worth it in the end! Again Congrats!
