She sounds very charming....!!! WTF?????
Why dont you just stop being friends now since you will be having a baby in 2011???? Get it over with i say...!!!!!

Well... We aren't entirely friends. We just met them for dinner once. They were lovely... except that bit. It was a real shame. I guess its just her coping mechanism. At least she told me upfront and didn't decide to spring it on me during labor or something! I can see it now...

Facebook update: Megan Eli is at the hospital... IN LABOR!
Her response : I hate to tell you this, but we can't be friends anymore. Sorry!

Ah well... I think its why we haven't seen them again. I was clear that I expect to have a baby, and sooner than later. It probably turned her off a bit! I wasn't going to say I'd give up for her! LOL

P.S. Boobs aaaaaaaaaaaaache! How can someone with such rubbish progesterone have such sore boobies?

Thanks for accepting my friend's request Megg. Nothing about TTC/Pregnancy on FB though please!

 

[vickyd]

Megg do your boobies always hurt at this time of the cycle?

That's the unwritten rule! I would never! Thanks for adding me!!!

Megg do your boobies always hurt at this time of the cycle?

Uhm... Yes, but not usually quite so badly. They were really achy last night. So, a bit more than normal.

Megg, your chart looks great. Are you taking progesterone now? If not, maybe you are producing more this cycle.

Nope! I couldn't get any prescribed. Today is my first chance at it! I would love to be producing more this cycle! I really couldn't be producing LESS! LOL

Of course, I have that huge dip today... but we'll just call it an implantation dip for fun. It won't be until my temp doesn't go back up tomorrow that I'll change my mind and be sad! LOL

Have you thought about using progesterone cream? I use it after ovulation. Once I get pregnant I'll go on the suppositories, but they wouldn't give them to me until I get a BFP. So until then, I'm using the cream after Ov. It's less concentrated than the suppositories, but in my mind every bit helps!

Yes! I actually have some! But, I thought it best not to use anything this cycle, in case they want to repeat blood work of any sort. I don't want to taint it. Depending on how today goes, I might start using it tonight or tomorrow... just for the last week of my 2ww. But, I'm hoping they'll tell me to start on prescribed supplements straight away! We shall see!

I so desperately just want to find out I'm pregnant and know that I'm either suffering through the job for my baby... or quit knowing that I'm going to be a SAHM soon! That's what my mom and aunt both said... I'm only doing it until I become a SAHM! I guess its good that they're positive about it. Of course, my aunt pointed out that if it stresses me out so much, its probably not going to be very helpful in the conception process. Which, I can totally see! I don't think it would be particularly healthy for me to stress like yesterday in early pregnancy either. So, we'll see what happens.

I just want some sort of progress! Some sort of step toward getting a sticky bean! I'm so worried he'll be awful! Anyway, I have to get the hell outta here! Its getting late! Gotta head to the appointment! Think positive, progressive thoughts for me?

 

[vickyd]

POSITIVE THOUGHTS coming your way babe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FX FX FX!!!!!!!!

 

[Megg33k]

Love my FS! I'll update my journal and link to it in here when the post is done!

 

[heart tree]

Thinking about you Meggles. Hope the day an appt. go well. Positive thoughts. Can't wait to read your journal. Off to work myself right now and won't be in front of a computer for many hours. Will check back later.

Hi vicky!!!

 

[vickyd]

Hello Darling Hearty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im so enjoying not going into work!!! I watched the last 3 episodes of True Blood...SOOOO HOTTTT!!!! I want Eric right here right now!!!!

 

[heart tree]

Ok, I really need to go to work now! I'm 2 episodes behind on True Blood. Tim started watching it with me and he's holding it up. I'm so annoyed! I want to know what happens!!! Are you in the current season? Eric is so hot!

I'm really, really, really off to work now. Wish I could chat more. Glad you are enjoying your time off. xoxo

 

[vickyd]

Mmmm.... TRUE BLOOD! *drool* I that show!!! Soooooooo HOT!

AFM... The appointment went great! I my FS! You can read about it in my FS Recap! Link is to my journal post!

 

[vickyd]

Megg great news with the FS!!!! It must be a relief that you now have a clear cut strategy, limbo land and not having a plan really sucks! I kinda hope this is your month though!!!

p.s IVF is soooo expensive in the states.....Here it is 2000 euro per cycle at the top clinic which has 50% sucess rate!

 

[heart tree]

Megg, I just read your journal post. I'm so glad you found someone who is going to work with you. I like the option you are leaning towards. I wish my insurance covered any of those options but it doesn't. I'd have to pay out of pocket for everything including Clomid! I agree with Vicky, I hope it is your month too. Doesn't hurt to do the progesterone cream! Your doc said that if you have good quality eggs, progesterone is a non issue, right? How do you know you have good quality eggs? I didn't know they could determine that. That's my biggest fear, that my eggs are spoiled.

Ok, I'm about to admit something that I will never repeat anywhere else. Part of my job is meeting clients in their homes. I had it set in my head today that I had to leave my house at 10am to get to my appointment. As I got in the car at 10am I realized my appointment was at 10am! It takes me at least 45 minutes to drive there, so there was no way I'd get there in time. I had to pull over in the car and lie to the guy. I told him I blew a flat tire and was waiting for the tow truck to fix it. I'm a HORRIBLE liar. I feel like such an ass. I'm usually so prompt and organized. I'm horrified at myself right now. I honestly think I got distracted with myself. I set my CBFM this morning, I checked in with B&B and I went to the gym. I was so pre-occupied with myself that I totally f-ed up!

Oh, I feel better telling someone. I'm not even going to tell Tim!

At least I can chat for a little while now. I have another appointment at 1pm. I HAVE to leave here at noon which is in an hour and 15 minutes.

 

[vickyd]

Hearty bless you, you are so cute!!!! Is this the first time you messed up a work appointment???? If only i could list the many times ive come up with the most unbelievable scenarios to justify absence, late arrival, being spaced out in meetings due to severe hangovers

There is no way to check the quality of eggs, only the reserve but they speculate that if there is deminished reserve then the quality is also not top.
I asked two specialists about this as it is my fear aswell, they dismissed this as i get pregnant easily. Apparently if you can get pregnant relatively easily that is an idication of good quality eggs. Who knows really????

 

[heart tree]

Yes, this is the first time I've messed up. The reason I feel so bad is because it isn't my boss or another co-worker I flaked on. It is a client who needs emotional support and help figuring out how to take care of her mother with Alzheimer's. She and her husband were very understanding. Now I have to meet with them on Friday when I was planning to work from home that day. Damn!

That's what I thought about the egg quality. My reserve is very good and I also get pregnant easily so I guess my quality is good too. My concern is how late I ovulate. I thought my quality might not be as good because of that and that is the reason I keep having miscarriages. I really, really, really want the progesterone to work for me next time I get preggers. I know there isn't a lot of hard evidence that it works, but I have to put all of my good quality eggs into that basket!

 

[vickyd]

Hearty i read an article the other day about late ovulation in regards to MC. Apparently there is a connection although not concrete as there are not enough clinical studies...Once again taboo stands in the way of science and progression. They state that by injecting HCG they can overcome the problem. Heres the link, some of it may seem medical jargon but if you read it a few times it makes sence.
