Hi Twhit -- Isn't it crazy how insurance companies won't pay for fertility treatment so we are forced to try things without Dr's monitoring us. I am so sorry about your insurance. What about treating the PCOS? Will your insurance cover treating that? The reason I ask is because come carriers will cover things that effect your cycle such as endo like I have. It makes my periods super painful. What if you talked to the Dr. and asked that they code things for treating PCOS? I know there is no cure for it just like the endo that I have but are you able to manage it and still be covered? Is surgery an option? For me my Dr. agreed to surgery because I was having painful periods. Maybe if you complain about the PCOS messing with your cycle they can treat your symptoms with Clomid and code it as irregular periods. Switch Doc's and tell them that you are having issues with your periods and would like help getting things working better. Believe it or not there are Doc's out there that hate insurance companies and will code things as irregular cycle instead of infertility. Ask your girlfriends who they go to or who they have heard is good to work with for OB/GYN care. I wish you the best.

Ok...I slept this afternoon and now I am wide awake. So I guess I will make some hot tea and read about assisted hatching since I am being charged for this service. I swear I better produce some 24K gold eggs after tall this crap! Roll call tomorrow night. Everyone check in and tell us where you are in your cycle.

Hey, girls! I completely relate to everyone with all this Mother's Day crap. It would have been my first Mother's Day. I'm trying my best to ignore the holiday!!! My temps jumped up to 98 this morning, so that's nice. (Can't figure out how to get on my parent's internet from my laptop, so I can't upload them until tomorrow!) It seems like I have 4-5 days of temps just above the cover line after o until they finally start climbing. I've been having just barely hardly noticeable pink cm yesterday and today. Probably still too soon to mean anything. Oh, have any of you accupuncture gals had needles on top of your head??? She did that yesterday, along with my wrists, ankles, and just below the knees. It's the first time she hasn't put a bunch in my back. I guess it's supposed to support implantation. But those head ones stung a little! I'm off to bed, so I'll check in with everyone tomorrow!

Hey Newmommy -- My acupuncturist puts the needles in the top of my head, also between my eyes, in my ears for tranquility and also in the same spots yours did. It depends on where I am in my cycle. That's what determines where the needles go. I'm glad you are having a good experience with hte accupuncture. Congrats ont he temps rising!! What CD are you on?

CD 28 here and Mothers Day. What a way to screw with me huh??? Well I refuse to test. I am just waiting for my IVF education class this Thursday so hopefully by next mothers day I'll be holding my own child and experiencing the true meaning of Mother's Day.

Lucky, cd25 here, and 6dpo. I'm expecting AF next Sunday. I'd love for her to be a no-show----but I just have a feeling that this isn't my cycle. I'm really hoping next one will be it. (don't we all!!!) Anyhow, I don't blame you for refusing to test today. The stick hasn't been too nice to us lately! Next year, we'll all either be in a New Mommies board, or a 3rd tri board. I SO hope for that for all of us. I'm off to go buy my Mom a little something, and then heading back home. I'm looking for ward to a nice, relaxing afternoon. (((HUGS))) to all!!!

((HUGS)) to you newmommy!!

Okay, I've been having definite pinching/cramping the past hour or two. And now I'm getting darker brown/pink cm. I'm trying not to get all excited---it's probably nothing. But just in case, I'm going to take it easy and let that little embie burrow away!

Hello Ladies, I am sorry that most of you are experiencing pain on this day. I know how you feel. This should be our happy day too. I am very sad today, but trying my best to ignore my sadness. I got a + opk on Thursday and today my temps shot up, so its looking good that I ovulated. Maybe this one will stick. Its hard to get hopes up after 3 mc. A positive preg test doesn't always equal a baby.. but you all know what I mean. Just wanted to let you know that I was thinking of you all today, and keeping you in my prayers.

CD 8 here. Start my opk's on Tuesday. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all the mommies with angels and to all the mommies to be!!! Well I went out to lunch with my mom and brothers. My mom was so nice and got me a beautiful hanging basket for mothers day even though I am not a mom yet. I kept myself busy this weekend. Re-arranged my living room and finally finished decorating it. My bedroom is the last room and may do that Saturday if my iui is Sunday. I can't beleive tomorrow is Monday already. Well off to finish watching Desperate Housewives. Of course they is a pregnancy to announce. Talk to you guys later.

Ok, so I've written two posts so far and I've accidentally hit a button and it kicks me off the internet. This post will be short and sweet. cd 25. Shots are going well. DH is giving me the shots so I am less stressed about it. They were really stressing me out last time. Acupuncture is good, I'm going tomorrow. He puts the needles in all the same places including the forehead and feet. He also puts a heating lamp over my tummy. Glad we all survived today. We will all be blessed with our little miracles soon. Well, I'm signing off before I hit the wrong button. I'll write more tomorrow!

Every month, I tell myself that I won't get excited about symptoms next time, and every month I do! Okay, so I'm cheesy, and love a good song that says what I'm going through. This one jumped out at me this weekend, by Kelly Pickler:
I've felt the power of forgiveness
I know that life can let you down
I'm not blind
No, I don't need a witness
To tell me there's angels all around

My eyes have seen more than they want to
My heart has scars that run so deep
There's tears that I've had to let go
And there's dreams I told myself I'd keep

Now I don't give up easy
I have many miles to go
But I can't wait to get to
What I see down this road
And all my life I've learned to
Just take it day by day
I'm not there yet
But I know I'm on my way

I've looked out the window
When there's no hope I sight
But I swear I heard a whisper
Said it would be worth the fight

So I woke up one morning
And I put my fears aside
Now look how far I've come
From the back of an endless line

Now I don't give up easy
I have many miles to go
But I can't wait to get to
What I see down this road
And all my life I've learned to
Just take it day by day
I'm not there yet
But I know I'm on my way

I still got lessons to be learned
There's a choice at every turn
Someone out there cleared a path
And there's no turnin back

And all my life I've learned to
Just take it day by day
I'm not there yet
But I know I'm on my way
I'm not there yet
But I know I'm on my way
Baby, I'm on my way
On my way

We'll get there, girls!!! Happy Monday!
