eb- I am so sorry af arrived... doesn't it just stink? And on top of it the stuff at the doctors... don't you just love them? Anyhow I am feeling pretty good. Today is cd20 for me. Af arrived on cd19 of last cycle so I am doing better than last month... I am really anxious for our appointment - hopefully we will be able to jump right in to ttc!!

Sorry, I haven't posted in a bit. Lots going on right now! eb, what a bummer your af showed! I think the break will do you good, even if you don't get PG during that time. Your body will be able to take a break from the stress of ttc. Jamie, good luck with your appt. I hope everything goes well for you. JND, glad to hear things are going good for you and the baby. **baby dust**

Well girls I woke up to the biggest scare of my life. I went to the bathroom and when I wipped there was a lot of blood. I called the doctor and they brought me in for my first US. THANK GOD she said the baby looks healthy we got to see the beating heart, the baby was doing flips all over and I think it waved to us. My dx: is unexplained bleeding. She said possibly a blood vessel by my cerivx could have ruptured. She said it looked like a happy healthy baby that was going any were. I don't wish that scare on anyone. I think that has to be the worst thing to go through, I really thought I was losing the baby. I am 12 weeks Friday.

JND, glad to hear you and the baby are ok. I'm just hanging out. Kinda sad about no meds and then i'm glad. I think my raging hormones needed a break. But it kinda feels like we're wasting time, but we have to get dh fixed up or nothing will work for us. Jamie, glad your doing good. Only a few more days.. Anna how are you and the baby? My step daughter is still sick. She prob won't be back to school until mon. Hopefully dh and i won't get it.

JND, I'm glad to hear that everything is ok. I'll be praying for you that everything continues to go well. How neat you got to see the baby for the first time! Did he/she look like a whale or a little alien?! They always look so goofy in their first ultrasounds pictures! Mine was shaped and looked like a Mr. Potato Head! Keep us posted if anything else comes up, ok? eb, the baby is doing great and growing bigger. She kicks so hard and pokes her hands and feet out my belly. Sometimes, I think she wants to play! I feel where her feet are and rub the bottom of them and she kicks my fingers, then puts her feet back for more! I've got a sore spot on my belly where she loves to lay and kick a bunch. Only 12 1/2 more weeks to go. I'm kind of nervous about L&D, but excited to have my little girl with me soon! Don't get stressed about taking a break from ttc. I really think it will do your body good to not have that stress on you for a while and then you'll be better prepared physically and emotionally when you continue ttc. We'll be right here to support you! **baby dust** :)

I hope everyone has a great weekend. My step daughter is doing a lot better today. I hope she is finally getting well. It's been a long week...

Hi girls, DH and i went out on the town last night for some grown up us time. We'd had a rough week with step daughter sick. Anyways, we met up with some couple friends and the first thing we get told is she's prego. I was kinda ugly, i didn't really congradulate them or anything i just walked away and sat and talked with my other girlfriend. Urgh i hate feeling the way that i do, but it's soo frustrating and i'm finding it harder and harder to be excited for other people. (I know it sounds horrible) I'm really not a mean person.... Then later in the night her boyfriend came over and was talking to us, saying they missed seeing us but we didn't act like we were gald to see them ect. I finally really lost it and told him, we haven't been around b/c my meds make me not want to be around and dh and i have just been staying home. He then said we could be happy for them, i said i am but others good new hurts us too, b/c were working on ttc for almost 2 years and bame they weren't even trying. Sorry i just needed to vent. DH let me cry on his shoulder and tells me not to think about others luck or how undair it is, b/c it'll be our turn one day. It's hard though. Hope you guys had a great weekend.

hi, feeling better today. Hope you all are okay, only another day until your appt. Jamie. How are you holding up??

Eb - I so know what you are feeling. I just found out a good friend of mine who was in my wedding is pregnant again. The thing is she found out she was pregnant with her first when my dh and I started trying. She is now on her second and here I am still stuck in the starting gate. We have drifted apart - it is just too hard being around her - I mean I am happy for her and all, but... I think you know how I feel. I know that is selfish but for my own sanity I need to have my limitations. I am looking forward to my appointment - I will let you know what happens. I think af is on its way - my bb's are absolutely killing me and I am spotting. We will see....

Thanks for the support Jamie, we are going through a lot of the same things. Let me know what you find out from the re. I'll be thinking happy thoughts for you. Somethings gotta change for us girl!!

Thanks Eb!! It is so nice to have you to talk to - no one else really understands - thanks!

Good Luck tomorrow Jamie, let us know how everything goes and what you find out. I'll be thinking about you. Dh leaves tomorrow night. I hope the 14 days go by quickly.

The nurse called from my doctors office today and she said they were reviewing my US and my placenta is very low lying which can be an early sign of placenta previa and that is what was possibily causing the bleeding SO.....they are going to keep a very close eye on me, they still want me to go for my US Feb. 7th and then another one 2 weeks after that. I'll just keep praying the placenta will move up. Jamie, how did your appt. go today? Hope everyone else is doing ok.

JND i'll be praying for you. I'm sure everything will be fine. Jamie, what's the news girl?? Nothing new with me. DH leaves around midnight.

Well we had our appointment. We found out my dh's sperm morphology is only 8% - normal is 30%. Everything else with him is fine. So he has to have another sa in 3 weeks. In the mean time I am waiting for af. The doctor has decided to try another round of clomid, this time keeping a closer eye on me than my previous doctor. I will have an us within the first five days of my cycle, start clomid, have another us to see if the follicles are maturing, etc. etc. I guess we may try the trigger shot as well this round. Depending on the results of the next sa - we are probably looking at another round of clomid after this one with an IUI. I am feeling ok about it - I am just really anxious to get things moving. I am on cd 28 - spotting has pretty much stopped since yesterday. My bb's are extremely sore and very itchy... JND - I am praying as well - I am sure things will be fine - hang in there!

Jamie, glad you got some anwsers . Did you like the new re? When will you start clomid this cycle or the next? Today is cd 12 for me, nothing to tell. I'm not opking this time b/c it really won't matter with dh gone. It really messed our schedule up when i had those two cycles so close together. Hopefully everything will work itself out and the timing will get back on track. Hope everyone is doing good.
