@ebony: I love that picture girl! So pretty! I hope you caught that eggy

@purple: Im so happy that you are back and your children are beautiful.

AFM, still waiting. I go to DRs today at 4pm. Maybe there is some progress. Im bored to death at home. Tomorrow my job is giving me a shower so I have to go up there for that if no baby. DH is getting on my last nerve but otherwise Im fine.

Hey ladies,

Purple, glad to see you luv. Your children are so beautiful. I hope you and your moms work things out. But I am glad you and your sister are doing well.

Hey ladies!

Due to the weather, they cancelled my appt. We got 5 inches yesterday and you know in the south, they close everything down. They told me to call tomorrow or monday to reschedule but I have another appt on weds so I might just wait for that one. Hubby isnt talking to me because I spoke my mind yesterday and today, so Im having a pretty crappy day. Oh well, he will get over it or he can move on.

Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[FutureMommie]

MrsKC- 5in of snow? Wow! I know what you mean about closing down in the south, I'm in NC so if we get a dusting everything closes I'm sorry you are having a crappy day, I hope you and the hubby make up soon so everyone is happy when malcolm makes his debut.

AFM- still spotting off and on, I'm have no idea what is going on or where I am in my cycle. I took another pg test and it neg which I expected so I guess I will wait another week and see what happens and if nothing I will make an appointment to see my re and find out what's going on. I've been taking fertileaid CM for about 2 weeks now so I'm going to stop taking that to see what happens, I don't think it has anything to do with it but you never know.

Good morning ladies! How is your Friday going?

Purpleprincess, nice to meet you and you have a gorgeous little miss there. She's adorable! As for fam issues, sometimes it's best to take a step back and stay away for a minute. It also allows them to miss who we are. I hope it will not be too long, because she is going to miss out on being around her brand new granddaughter. But I'm happy you have your older sister, older sisters are like a second mom anyways. Good luck lady.

Thanks for the compliments on my pic ladies.

MrsKc... sorry they cancelled your doc appt... did the baby shower still go on? How did it go? And what did ya get? hehehe

Kaicyn.. sorry... I did IUI with injections without success... quite possibly because it was the few months following a laparoscopy.. my uterus was probably still healing. I did it for two cycles... and then I took a break from injects and IUI. I got pregnant just on being consistent with Met alone. Sometimes I think the injects mess with your normal cycle when you take them for a number of consecutive cycles.

Future... what's the ingredients in the Fertilaid? Do you have Luteal Phase defect Because if you are in your LP.. maybe the Fertileaid is helping it lengthen.. or if you are in your pre-O stage, it could be helping to mature an egg.. which in both cases can lengthen a PCOS cycle. Do you temp?


AFM... my FF says I O'd on cd18, but I really think I O'd cd 20, because I had the worse kinda O pain that I get on a stimulated cycle. Granted, I did take some leftover gonal-f for a few days, doing a combo cycle.
And..I don't know what I'm going to do for Valentine's day for DH. I think I'm just going to make him his fav dish from his country (Nigeria). Maybe I'll make a batch of heart shaped sugar cookies too. Cookies always put a smile on any face. I know they put a smile on mine.. .LOL

Well ladies... will check back on you later... not studying today.. taking a break... it's FRIDAY!!!

Hey ladies!

@futuremomie: Yep they cancelled due to 5 inches. Im from Chicago so in my book thats nothing!! Thanks and yes God will have to work some things out in both of us. Just keep us in your prayers.

@ebony: They moved the baby shower to monday because they have been out of school for snow days. SO hopefully I will make it until then. Ill be sure to let you know what I got. I have so much stuff already. Ill have to take pics.

Im tired. I didnt sleep well last nite. I have to pick up some stuff I ordered online at walmart for the baby's room. Its a valance and a rug. Now all I need is a dresser. Im going to get a cheapee one from Walmart next week, the kind DH has to put together. Im going to sterilize the bottles today as soon as I figure out how to do so. Oh I also need to get a breast pump. I saw one at Target so Ill get that next week too.

My mom friend who lives down the street keeps calling me every other day to see if I have had the baby. She is getting on my nerves. I told her I will call her, geez.

Praying for some BFPS! We need some more babies! Im the last one to deliver!!!!!

BTW, Im doing nothing for Vday probably. DH always has a surprise though. I have DH's gift in my tummy, LOL. He asked me to marry him 2 yrs ago on Feb 15, so we will honor that day and besides thats my payday LMAO!!

Mrskc.. LOL @ your mom's friend!

Question... did you do any progesterone sups or progesterone shots during your pregnancy? A friend of mine suggested the progesterone shots to help me go full-term next time around. I already do sups. after O and up until 13 weeks.

Pictures are in my journal last page if you all want to come over and check them out.

@ebony: Yes I took suppositories until I made 10 weeks. I think its routine at the fertility specialist. I think they are good and couldnt hurt.

 

[FutureMommie]

Ebony- My cycles have always been 28 days with no lp defects, I'm spotting really dark brown blood every few days, I'm going to lay off the pills and see what happens. idk, I'm totally in the dark.....uggh!

MrsKc- Praying for you and I know it's going to blow over.

Hey darknlovely. You have been on this thread before right? I remember your name. Maybe it was another thread. Welcome and congrats on your new pregnancy. I wish you all the best.

Hey ready, future, ebony, vrain, purple, kareeen!
Im still here waiting. Nothing as of yet. Woke up this morning and had the breakfast of champions....left over pizza. Now Im watching Good times. Love this show, especially since Im from Chicago. I miss home so much. Gonna try and go there for Easter. I want to go shopping but I dont have much money today so I guess I better wait till pay day on tuesday. I told DH, Im going to make shopping my past time since I have no baby, LOL!

Maybe baby M will come this weekend. Funny thing, I was telling hubby maybe we should name him Miles. DH grandfathers name is Miles and I just love that name, but for some reason I think if I dont name him Malcolm, Ill hate myself later. LOL, I know crazy lol.
