They are for a Christmas present for DH cousin's bump. Yep it sure hurts knitting baby stuff for other-people but I am trying to force myself into not feeling so nasty towards pregnant women I know and forcing a cheery façade. Knitting does actually help de-stress me so I am secretly hoping it will work towards my

Thanks Fiesty!!!

Okay, so I think I might of just gotten some good news despite my weekend starting off kind of crappy!!! A staffing agency I used to work for just contacted me to see if I wanted to go back to work for them and do a part time temporary job I used to do for them earlier this year, so I am excited about it!!! They wont need me to start until after Thanksgiving, but that works out perfectly with my schedule because I have to go out of town and will be going to see family for the holiday anyways and wouldnt of really been able to work next week just yet. So When the lady at the staffing agency finds out when the job will need me to start back to work she will let me know, so hopefully she will get back to me soon!!! I really liked it at my old job as an administrative assistant and I am excited to go back to work again and finally start making $$ again!!!

That's great news!! Congrats!!!!!!!

@FF - Those shoes are ADORABLE!!! I think if it's something that's relaxing you, then it's a good thing!

Super cute knitting!
I looove knitting. I did have to take a baby item break for a while.

 

[Feisty Fidget]

I love all things crafty Fisher! Know what you mean by taking a break from baby items though, the only things I have ever created are baby booties and hats

I scrapped a card when my hubby's cousin's wife got pregnant. It was fun since I like crafty things, but sad because by then we'd already been trying for over 6 months with no luck. I loved the card though!

Here's the baby card I made (the pics can be made bigger by clicking on them):

And just for good measure, here's one I made for my cousin's wedding:

I have to admit that I LOVED working on a baby plus growing up series of scrapbooks of my husband. I made them as a present for my MIL and FIL and they were so much fun to work on!

Oh wow they are gorge Dodger x

 

[dodgercpkl]

Thank you!!

 

[wannabeprego]

@Dodger, Wow those came out very pretty!!! I really like them alot!! You are a very talented and thoughtful lady!!

AFM, The ceiling below our master bathroom stopped dripping and is dry to the touch today, since we stopped using the shower in that bathroom, and DH shut the water off at the sink and the toilet in case the problem wasnt the shower causing the dripping ceiling problem. DH started demo on the shower and started taking down the tiles this afternoon, I have a feeling that project is going to take him a long time to complete, and I am not sure when we will be able to replace the shower walls in there and repair it, it should be easier to afford the project when I am able to return back to work though.

DH went to go pick up some chinese food for dinner, and since we both arent feeling that great it looks like it will be a quiet night in with some movies we rented, so just taking it easy this weekend. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far....

Hi ladies! If you don't mind I would love to join your group here. I haven't been on the forums here for very long so I am just now finding this forum and thread. AND it's great to have other women to talk to!!

A little history about me... DH and I have been TTC #1 for 5 years now. 3 years of hardcore trying and about 2 years of NTNP when I just can't handle it anymore. We have been to 3 RE's and they never seem to know why this just isn't happening for us. Over the course of doctors appts I started getting ovarian cysts that wouldn't go away. My second surgery they had to remove and ovary, but AF is still coming every month and typically right on time. We tried Clomid for 3 months and the doctor thought that I possibly miscarried but the blood test came back negative. My 4th month of Clomid AF was about a week late, then the day before my blood test she came and lasted for 44 days. Which was crazy and awful all at the same time. DH has perfect little swimmers. As for me the doctor suspects I have PCOS, although I don't have the symptoms of it and my hormone levels are always normal. I do have ovaries that appear to look like that of someone with PCOS though. I honestly just wish I could find out what the heck is wrong and when they suspect something, it is never a simple answer or explanation. Well I wish all of you the best of luck, and heres to hoping we all get our BFP's!!!

OMG, girls..... I just peeked in on DH's master shower demo.... and I thought he was just taking the old tile down... But nope... he has the whole friggen wall gone.....WTH.... He seems to think he can fix the shower himself, and I asked him if he had ever done dry wall before, and of course the answer was no.... but he went on and on about how easy this is going to be... lord help me.. I have a feeling this isnt going to go well and be an easy process. I tried to suggest we get an estimate from a professional to see about redoing the shower.... and he doesnt seem to be on board with it... lord help me....

@Urchin, I wish you lived closer hun, I would have you come and help with the shower redo... LOL....

Welcome to the group hun Has your specialist tried you on metformin if he suspects PCOS? I have had a friend on here that used it and fell pregnant the second cycle?

Sorry about the shower Saga wannabe

Have decided to join all you ill girls on here Only difference is mine is before ovulation so definitely not a symptom! I will stick to the schedule though as I feel really confident that it will work

 

[dodgercpkl]

The odd thing with this cold is that for the most part I actually feel fantastic! I should be tired from lack of sleep and miserable from my congestion, but while it does annoy me a bit, my SIL actually described me as glowing yesterday. lol IDK I do see to have more energy and be in a better mood the last few days.

Welcome TTCfor2long! You are in good company if you do have PCOS since there are a lot of us ladies here with it as well. I agree with FF, have they tried Metformin at all?

Wannabe - sounds like you are having an interesting time over there. I hope everything turns out well with the shower in the end!

FF - So sorry you are sick too. *hugs*

 

[TTCfor2long]

Yes I did Metformin for around 6 months. If my memory serves me correct it was 500mg 3x a day. The side effects were pretty unbearable including low blood sugar so they had me reduce it to 2x a day and it was still too much so I eventually got taken off of it.

GL with the shower demo lol... DH decided he was going to redue our bathroom a few years ago and it was a disaster LOL.

 

[fisher640]

Well my cold was not beneficial :-/ as AF has arrived.
I believe we'll be trying an unmedicated IUI this go round.
This blows.

I'm sorry Fisher

 

[Razcox]

Sorry the witch go you fisher

Welcome to the group TTCfor2long *waves* BTW that ticker is a bit scarey working out how much you have spent and how many times you have POAS. Dread to think what my total would be!

 

[dodgercpkl]

I'm so sorry the witch got you fisher.

I'm getting a bit more hopeful for this cycle. I'm 9dpo and I had spotting this morning! It's all gone now, but it was honest to goodness blood! Add that to the temp dip that I had and the glowing comment, and I'm really starting to think this *could* be the month!
