denalibear's TTC Journal

denalibear · #1 June 29th, 2009, 06:22 PM

Well, I felt a little left out and like a bad JM sister b/c I don�t spend a lot of time in the journal section of the board. So I figured a good way to stay up-to-date with everyone else�s journal was to start my own.

For those of you that don�t know me�I�m Stefanie my wonderful hubby and I have been married almost 4 years but we have been together much longer.
We decided to stop BC January 2008. We are currently on cycle 15, but I was out of town when I O�ed so it will be a true miracle if I get pregnant this cycle. Hey at least this will be an easy 2WW

Thanks for reading ladies!! Y'all have been a true blessing in my life b/c I would of lost my mind if I didnt have anyone to talk/vent to about ttc. I promise to keep up with my journal.
Well, now I�m off to get caught up on everyone else�s journals.

YAY for your journal! I am so glad you started one. You will find that it is a lovely way to vent

at least that is what I have found haha!!!

Welcome to the journal section Stefanie!

Thanks ladies! Leslie, I need a great way to vent

I put in my temp this morning and FF gave me CH's and in the "Early Pregnancy Signs" it says Not Applicable without insemination/intercourse within the fertile window. ha ha ha ha....this is going to be the least stressful 2WW in the last 15 months.

Last night I went walking with DH and decided to run the last couple blocks. It felt sooooo good to run again. I used to love to run. But my knees are shot. My doctor told me that running was going to lead to knee surgery so I stopped running. This morning my knees are good, no pain...YAY!!

Yay for starting a journal Stef!!! It really is a great way to get all of your feelings/worries/concerns/pissed-off-ness off your chest. And it's also great when there aren't any good threads goin'!! LOL!!

I love my JM girls!!!

And Yay for no knee pain!!! Woo Hoo!!

I'm glad you decided to start a journal- it's been the best decision I've made here on JM.

I really hope Clomid works out for you- I'll be watching your journal. I won't be around much, but soon I'll be back into the full swing of things!

Hey Stef!!! YAY for getting CH's~ if there is one thing that I have learned so far it is that you never know.... How is your summer going? I love being off, but I am already a little bored. Hope you are having a great day

denalibear · #10 June 30th, 2009, 08:05 AM

AHHHHH...I think we might get some rain!!!! YAY!!! We need it sooooooo bad it has been so dry here. Im going to do a rain dance for some much needed rain!

Chrissy, this is my first week of real summer.

I try and do all of my professional development during the summer so I dont have to miss a lot of school...I hate planning for a sub, its so much more work. So this week is my first full week off. I plan on doing stuff around the house this week.

Yay for finally starting a journal Stef! Glad to have you here! Loving the way your chart looks. Who knows, maybe you will be pleasantly surprised. That would be awesome! I would love to have twins as well. Glad your knees are feeling good enough for you to run! Have a great day!

Today is our 4th anniversary!! YAY! The only sad thing is that DH left around 6 this morning and won�t be home until 8 or 9. He has to drive 2hrs each way. I feel so bad for him...working all day and then having to drive in traffic.
I think I�m going to make grilled pork chops and homemade mac n cheese for dinner...DH's fav's. And since I�m not really in the 2ww...a few glasses of wine are in order.
Also we got rain yesterday which is awesome...we haven�t had rain in a month

MommaLee · #17 July 1st, 2009, 10:13 AM

Happy Anniversary!!!

Does your dh do that drive everyday? My last job was a city planner in Huntsville and I made the hour drive M-F and it sucked! So I can empathize.

Coley · #18 July 1st, 2009, 10:23 AM

Awww!! Happy Anniversary!!!

I hope you and Scott have a wonderfully fantastic evening!!

denalibear · #19 July 1st, 2009, 01:36 PM

Thanks ladies...I have a wonderful hubby! I always tell him he is stuck with me forever and he always says "not stuck, I'm pleasantly attached" Gotta love him...he's so cute.

Lee Ann - Yes, he has to drive everyday...poor thing it sucks. I had to make that drive to Huntsville everday too

MommaLee · #20 July 1st, 2009, 02:50 PM

I went to SHSU then transferred to Texas A&M. Dh's brother is a Bearkat! I have to make an annual trip over there for Christmas presents.

Are ya'll thinking about moving to SA at all???
