Well, you know what, I think I will! lol I have been seriously missing you girls and I stalk here every day! So, here is a little update on me...

I don't have anything too interesting to update. We were taking a break from actively TTC when I stopped posting, and now we are actively TTC again. I went another almost 5 months with no real AF. Just some spotting every once in awhile. About a week before Thanksigiving, I started taking One A Day Women's vitamins because they "promote reproductive health". I was looking at the vitamins one day and noticed this on the box so I figured it couldn't hurt. I guess maybe they did help or maybe it was just a coincidence, but I had a real AF that started Dec. 13th!!! I should have started charting so I could see if I O'ed or not, but I didn't. I'm gonna start charting if I'm not pregnant now. Last Sat. I woke up feeling sooo nauseous, but it went away after a couple hours and I haven't felt anything since. I started spotting Tues. night, and spotted a little Wed. morning, but then it stopped, so I really don't know what's going on at this point. I need to test I think. I just hate seeing the BFNs all the time so I rarely test. But I will be testing at least by the end of this month, and if it's a BFN, I will find a new Dr. to go to. So, that's where I stand as far as TTC.

I am also now the Human Resources Department Supervisor for my BRU. I got promoted in September. I was just a regular part time associate before then. So, now I'm full time, I got a good raise, and Chris and I both have good insurance now! Yay! So, now we can get serious about figuring out what the problem is. The insurance I have says it covers infertily treatments up to $15,000 too, so hopefully that will work out if we need it.

Chris and I are doing great. We hit a rough patch for a couple months, but we worked through it and are doing better than ever. Chris is really wanting a baby bad now, which is a change from the way he was before. He wanted a baby before, but I think it was more just cuz that's what I wanted, and now our baby fever is pretty equal, so at least he understands how I've felt for so long.

Anyways. That's pretty much all that has been going on with me. I guess if I'm gonna start posting again, I need an updated siggy.

ETA: oh yeah, I've also starting a walk at home work out, so I'm hoping to lose some weight and maybe that will help with TTC too!

Resi · #9 January 15th, 2010, 11:13 AM

It's so good to hear from you! I've been wondering how you are w/ ttc and life in general. You have had a lot of great new things come your way. Congrats on the promotion. Yay for good health insurance that covers RE!

chellerenee · #10 January 15th, 2010, 11:46 AM

Yes. I will start posting again. I missed having the support of people who know what I've been going through. I don't know how many DPO I am, or if I even O'ed. My last AF was Dec. 13th. If I have a normal cycle, it's usually around 30-32 days, but some of you may remember, I never got crosshairs when I charted, so I don't know if I O on my own. Since I started spotting Tues. night, that was CD30, so I thought I was gonna start, but nope, it stopped! I'm gonna go get groceries either tonight or tomorrow, so I think I'll pick up a test too. I haven't really had any symptoms though. Just that one day that I woke up feeling nauseous and also yesterday, I was peeing seriously like every 45 min. to an hour.

LisanAndy · #11 January 15th, 2010, 11:58 AM
