Happy Thursday evening ladies!!

Hope you all who haven't beef feeing well are feeling better and Jess I pray Lily is much better soon and you all are out of the PICU very soon!!

I'm super tired this evening, I'm so ready for the weekend!!

What have you all been up to today??

fil · #**123** April 12th, 2012, 03:53 PM

I think all of your sicknesses have rubbed off on me... Been nauseous all day even though I haven't taken my Met since last night. Does that happen to anyone else?? I don't want to be sick tonight though, since there are snow mobile races this evening! (That's life in the North for you...)

DrMomJLS · #**124** April 12th, 2012, 06:11 PM

Thanks for the well-wishes, ya'll. Lily is still in the PICU

She has to wear this awful mask that she hates...

Hope everyone else is having a better day

*Manda* · #**125** April 12th, 2012, 09:16 PM

So I thought I totally posted today only to realize that I didn't! My HSG is tomorrow and I'm pretty nervous about it. Guess we'll see what happens!

That mask looks like no fun. No wonder she hates it.

marline26 · #**126** April 12th, 2012, 09:25 PM

Poor baby

hope all gets better for her. Manda, my hsg was uncomfortable, but definitely not the worst experience that I've ever had. Good luck!

melissamarie247 · #**127** April 12th, 2012, 10:53 PM

Awww. That mask looks horrible! Get well soon Lilly!

Im still trying tonfigure out FF. got green light again this morning. How many days does that usually happen? Hmmm... Then it tells you when temps say you O'd right?

MrsOrganization2011 · #**128** April 13th, 2012, 02:55 AM

Green light shows up when your CM is optimal for BDing ... you could get that a few times a cycle depending on how often you get good CM.

Oh that mask looks so scary I don't blame her for not liking it

How's everyones day going?

fil · #**129** April 13th, 2012, 08:15 AM

Poor Lily! Even though I'm sure it's horribly uncomfortable, she still looks sweet! I hope she gets to go home soon.

I'm not sure what is going on with my cycle... I've started a journal so I will mostly post over there to avoid bogging down the chat thread. If anyone is interested, hop on over!

I will say that I woke up nauseous again this morning.

Boo.

melissamarie247 · #**130** April 13th, 2012, 09:01 AM

oh ok. Didn't know what green meant. Thank you. Horay! It's FRIDAY!! I spent the day doing laundry and selling things I don't use. I made an extra $160 plus a little 16GB iPod nano I got for $90 worth of things I sold... so, I am loving my day. Now I have some more spending money for Paris next weekend. I still haven't booked the trip. It really needs to get booked asap or I will have to push the trip to May 5th. First thing Monday morning we will. I hope there are still spots. Im so excited! Tonight we are going to this Bazzar and then to do the wallpaper stuff as soon as dinner is done and I get the laundry from the dryer. This weekend I am not up to too much.. so happy about that.

*Manda* · #**131** April 13th, 2012, 09:51 AM

Yay for spending money Melissa!

My HSG wasn't horrible but it was very uncomfortable. Painful at points but nothing awful. My tubes are clear though, hooray! Next appt is next Tuesday and I should be ready to trigger and IUI next Thursday hopefully

melissamarie247 · #**132** April 13th, 2012, 10:44 AM

wow Manda!! Seems you are ready to go and everything is in place. That is Great!!

~* Natasha *~ · #**133** April 13th, 2012, 03:57 PM

Manda- Glad you got that over with and I PRAY that this means all passages are clear and ready for that IUI to knock you up!!

Jess- I pray Lily is feeling better very very soon! Bless her heart for having to wear that mask!

Melissa- a trip to Paris sounds amazing! And having extra spending money is definately an added bonus!!

How is everyone else doing?? I'm so tired this evening, I'm glad today is Friday. Tomorrow will start off kinda busy, but hopefully after I go to Dad's for half the day, then come back to town and do one eval at the facility closest to me, then I can come home and crash out. (I sure hope so anyway!!)

NO real plans for the weekend except the above mentioned items for tomorrow. Then hopefully some r&r and some housework is all....

I go Monday for my "pregnancy confirmation" appointment. I'm sure it will be mainly bloodwork, and getting all the "ground rules" laid down. Hopefully schedule my first u/s!!

aubers68 · #**134** April 13th, 2012, 05:50 PM

Manda I am so excited for you! Good to hear your tubes are both clear!!!

fil · #**135** April 13th, 2012, 07:01 PM

Melissa - What are you up to in Paris? Sounds like fun! One day I will make it out there, although DH is more interested in travelling South America and Africa than Europe at this point, so I guess we'll see where our travel time gets used up!

Natasha - It's so exciting that you have your appointment so soon! I'm really interested to hear how it goes and what your doc has to say!

There is a big community festival going on this week... Today was a seal hunt and snow mobile races. Tomorrow is going to be lots of fun - a brunch and bazaar, more races and an iglu-building contest, and then a concert in the evening. Should be good! Unfortunately, the Met has been giving me lots of nausea, especially in the mornings/afternoons. When I told DH, he said, "It sounds like morning sickness." Unfortunately my chart proves otherwise!

*Manda* · #**136** April 14th, 2012, 11:57 AM

Happy Saturday ladies!

I found out today that I'm gonna be losing my babysitting gig during the summer

A total bummer and now we're not gonna be able to afford any more IUI's past this one :-/

~* Natasha *~ · #**137** April 14th, 2012, 01:06 PM

Manda- I'm sorry about the babysitting job!
I wish I had a job I could conjoure up for you like now!!!

Good luck with this IUI and I hope it's the only one you need!!

How is everyone else doing??
I've had a very busy first part of the day today. But I'm home and showered, and going to probably catch a nap!

MrsOrganization2011 · #**138** April 14th, 2012, 01:18 PM

I spent most of the early part of the day icing a cake, cleaning, and folding laundry. Exciting day isn't it hehe

I am counting down the days till I can test ... this TWW is driving me NUTS and I know I'm not going to be able to hold out much longer even though I know its going to be a pretty slim chance of getting a BFP this early.

My only symptoms at this stage could just be a side effect of the Clomid and that's that my nipples are so sore that even clothing hurts them. Its not that bad every day, all day ... but most evenings its unbearable. I have also had some slight cramping and just a general feeling of heaviness in my lower abdomen the last 2 days as well.

I'm crossing my fingers but I know it is probably a slim chance we caught the eggy this time around. It is really the FIRST normalish cycle I've had so it might just be a learning curve for DH and I hehe

melissamarie247 · #**139** April 14th, 2012, 03:13 PM

fil- the trip to Paris is just a day trip but we have to drive 3 hours to get to the place where the bus leaves so we are just going to stay in a hotel the night before since it is a 5 hour drive.. then it comes with a tour in English and a full day to explore. We will stay another night since it gets back really late and then come home.

Manda- sorry for the loss of the summer gig.. but hopefully this IUI works and you can spend the extra time planning for baby!

Sarah Ann- Fingers crossed for you. I had those same symptoms last month on clomid. My nipples hurt soooooo bad. This month no symptoms at all so far. I should be around O time from my understanding of the chart but who knows.

Today was a very very very long day. First we got up to go return the car we were borrowing while waiting on the part my husband ordered. Then we borrowed another car to go finish removing wallpaper but gave up around 5:30 and cleaned up. We only left a little. I hope they don't take too much of our deposit from us now. Then we went to go see The Hunger Games at 7. It was the first one to play in English out here. Then we returned the car and walked downtown to this festival and rode a few rides. I will post pics if we have Sunday snaps tomorrow. It is just now right after midnight here and it is time to go to bed. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

aubers68 · #**140** April 14th, 2012, 03:57 PM

Manda how crummy you lost your babysitting gig! Are you going to try to find something else in place or just enjoy the time to yourself?

Melissa, how did you like the Hunger Games? I didn't read the books, but we went to see the movie and I ended up missing half of it due to "morning sickness" but I liked the parts I got to see. Heard the books were better, then again they usually are

Sarah Anne, Will you have pictures of this cake????

Natasha, isn't it so crazy how tired you are already feeling???
