Erin has been doing well, I talk to her daily and she loves and misses all you guys. She has been super busy lately, but I'm sure she'll stop in soon.

Yeah hey, sorry. Our desktop PC has an awful virus and that **** Enfamil ad with the stupid newborn on it crashes my comp every time I try to visit JM. This virus I have eats up any memory we make free and won't allow scans, antivirus installation, etc. We're getting a Mac soon.
I have a crummy little laptop, which I used to write this loooooong reply on a couple days ago, then IT crashed after I wrote a good probably page and a half update.
To keep things short, I'm not well enough to be here regularly, but I think about all of you every single day. I always want to know how everyone's doing, but I'm so bitter at this point that seeing people not getting pregnant makes me angry, and seeing people getting pregnant makes me angry, and I don't like this angry girl, and I just don't know what to do.
As of Oct. 5 we'll be approved to make an appointment with a fertility specialist. That's when our insurance gives us the contact info for the doc they select. So we'll make an appointment Oct. 5, but I'm not sure when it will actually be. I'm waiting to O right now, and DH is going to be out of town my CD 14 - 22, so chances are I'll O while he's gone. Fingers crossed it'll happen soon after he leaves (Sunday) so we'll have a chance this cycle.
I love you guys so much. I miss y'all like crazy. I pop in and out when I can, but that's not very often... I'm trying <3 THANK YOU for thinking of me. For real, it means a ton to know y'all are still thinking of me.

Oh geez....that really, really sucks! Computer viruses can be nasty! Good call getting a Mac. I wish I could get one. They are wonderful! Just a word of caution though...they are not immune to viruses (it's just more rare) so I'd recommend getting an antivirus on it just to be safe. And definitely get Apple Care! It's totally worth it!
I really hope you O soon after your DH leaves! Hopefully you'll get a + OPK today! Good luck catching the eggie!! If it doesn't happen, I hope that your insurance picks a great RE for you (why won't they let you pick your own?) and that the doctor is proactive and gets you your rainbow baby right away!

Right now the military medical system is too full, so for things like this that aren't necessarily medically "necessary," they're not handling it through the on-base network. To see an off-base provider, DH has to get a referral, and this appointment is to screen us for it. I'm hoping we get approved... But who knows. If we don't, I'm pretty much to the point where I'm willing to just ****** pay for it out of pocket.

They should approve you. they approved us after 2 m/c. they said because of my age, and m/c history, they didn't want to bother with us at balboa  yay. i didn't want to go there anyways! if you aren't prime at balboa, they said they were too full. I had my scripps dr. put in a referral for Scripps Clinic in Carmel Valley and it was approved. initially it was denied, but i called the referral supervisor for infertility clinic at balboa and got it approved in 10 minutes  i have the number for the supervisor if you need it, or have any questions, text me if you still have my number. good luck to you guys.
