to all dealing with icky meds, shots and waiting, boo!
And I just calculated, today we did 16 posts, if we do that every day we could make it to 496, but I'm sure that's super high because not many of us come on on the weekends.
See we can do it ladies For whatever reason we seem to go good right away and then halfway through we slack off

Regarding posting...I post more when others post more, cuz there's more to respond too. Except when I'm in a weird funk, then I don't come by as much....I'm sure others here can relate to that..
Sending you baby dust! Did you get to DTD last night? I tend to post more when my life is cooperating. It's been pretty hectic lately!

AFM- I'm going to get my hair chemically straightened tonight after work. I got a perm back in November and I HATE how my hair is. I've waited it out this long so I did not fry my hair but I can't wait anymore. I'm hoping all goes well tonight and I have my straight hair back. I have to have this done before we start our IVF treatments.

Nope. He fell asleep on the couch this morning while I was still sleeping in bed. Then the baby cried while I was in the shower and woke him up. Arghhh. Maybe later? I can still hope I guess..... blah.
Hello, not so sleepy today. I found out yesterday my sister is having marital problems. She is unsure that it can be saved but is willing to work it out to keep the family together. Her DH is not emotionally connected. He is a brain logic thinker. He is having problems expressing things. He said to my sis that he is having fun at work but it is no fun at home. He lives with 3 females (his wife and two daughters). He does not know how to handle it all but do not seem to want to learn either. It is almost like his temper should be accepted but the others in the family should behave as he likes. I needed to get this off my chest here.
All is good with me and I am going to the RE office tomorrow morning to check progression. Thinking that we will do trigger then and go to the Shady Grove RE office sunday where they have the doctor's working on weekends.

I tend to post a lot, especially when others are posting. Since I first started TTC and when I was pregnant I became almost addicted to JM. I think it kept me off of every single internet page I could find that explained every detail of pregnancy. Of course, all this internet searching happens at work
It's kind of funny, because I searched the internet for every detail for the exact day that I was pregnant and even before, like "what exactly happens during conception". Now that I am trying again, my search has started to continue. I keep reading about conception again. I think I may have a problem.
I totally do the same thing. Read everything I can each new pregnancy...even though I've been there, done that. lol. Sometimes I come across something new, but most of the time its stuff I've already read about. I also tend to stray from JM when I'm not actively pregnant...but this time I've been hanging around more with the TTC only because of the RPL...it helps keep me sane...except sometimes it makes me obsess more....double edged sword... :/
In other news...
My RE called today. The third check they did on the lupus anticoagulant test came back borderline high again...so he said we're definitely doing heparin and aspirin as soon as I get a positive urine pregnancy test. Now if only I'd get pregnant!! Poo. If not this month, then next month!!! I hate to wish away time, but......I hope this month goes fast because it's not looking like it's happening now...
Lovisa: I hope your progression check goes well tomorrow. Sorry to hear about your sister DH is kind of like that, but we just started going to counseling. (No troubles but we both need help expressing emotions.) Have they thought of this? And it sounds like he needs a man friend!

Lovisa- My sister too is having marital problems. I think their marriage should be over - but they keep trying and I'm sure all their insane fighting is doing harm to the kids. I got a great story- her husband always calls me and tries to get me on his side (which will not happen) anyway the day after my D&C - I thought he was calling to check on me (because he is a doctor) but he wasn't. He did ask how I was, but then was like "I need to talk to you about your sister" I was like I can't talk about that **** right now and then he had the balls to say "Yeah, I understand- I'm going through the same thing as you....but a little different." This was right after my D&C. What a dick!

They are going to couples counseling.

I hope you get it soon so you can start charting. I'm not even waiting for mine- we are just trying again- which will probably suck since really I will have no idea to when my AF might actually show - since my doctor said anywhere between 4-6 weeks in normal.
good morning ladies! TGIF x100 today!!!! i have never been so happy for it to be the weekend, seriously
Lovisa - i'm sorry to hear your sister's having marital problems...i'm glad they're getting counseling & i hope they can get on a good/happy path forward.
Julie - glad to hear your RE is going to treat at first sign of a + hpt (took a little fight with mine to get that)...are you treating with baby aspirin earlier? My RE now lets me start the baby aspirin at DPO2....hoping your's will let you be similarly aggressive with it.
AFM...
Since this cycle is def. a bust now I have to figure out what to do next cycle...I think RE is going to push to up the Clomid dose (that's fairly standard if you don't quickly get pregnant on lowest dose) but I'm really on the fence....I don't use Clomid for the "normal" reasons it's prescribed - I ovulate normally & on regular schedule - but it's being used to help trick my body into producing more natural hormones (progesterone specifically). And b/c I've responded well to the low dose (2 mature follies each time) i'm worried if I up the dose that i'll over-respond (think 3, 4 follies) and then have to abandon the cycle b/c I won't TTC or trigger with that many eggs potentially in play. SIGH. What to do, what to do...and the clock is ticking loudly to boot

What does everyone have planned for the weekend?
I am not sure what the plans are for the weekend other than me doing the trigger shot saturday evening and having BD time with DH that evening too. Free of meds for Sunday and then the IUI on Monday. DH goes in and gives his sample at 10:15am and then I go in at 11:45am and receive it. After that I lay there waiting for 5 minutes to let the swimmers swim to catch eggie. Then home and doing BD again that evening and the next morning.
Fun times ahead.
What are planning to do this weekend?
