Hi girls. Wow, I had so many pages to read through!
Beaglemom, waiting anxiously for an update on your appt! I hope it went great! Btw, I love the idea of your fertility kit and the full moon. I'm a cancer, so I'm ruled by the moon too, so I would've taken advantage of it if I hadn't already O'd the day we touched the fertility statues, ha! Still can't believe I O'd that early. Anyway, update us soon on your appt! Oh, and I wanted to mention... you asked something about DHA. That one is important for baby's brain development. My RE gave me several prenatal vitamin samples to pick from, and every single one she gave me either had DHA already in it, or it came with a second pill to take of DHA. All of them had 800mcg of folic acid too. So I guess she feels that both are very important.
Savvy, I was giggling at your post about your mom knowing you guys are BDing! It's so true, no matter how old we get, how weird it is to talk to them about it, LOL. Although honestly, ever since this TTC thing started, I've kept my mom up to date on things, and it has felt a little more natural talking to her about it now, more than I was ever able to before. Regarding the "floaters" you had in your cup after the spotting, I have had that too. Not very often... Since my spotting comes before AF, I've seen those floaters when using a dipstick HPT once or twice.
Moni, wow, I'm getting so excited for you! I still think you have a great chance of a BFP this cycle, so I'm on pins and needles waiting for you to test on Easter.

And even if it's not a BFP, I'm gonna be excited for you to do IVF. I feel like if you dont get a BFP this cycle, that IVF will be the last thing you need before you're nine months from having a baby!
Floridasian, I'm just reeling from your post about the $2 preseed!! I wish I could find it for that cheap! That is awesome!
MissStacy, so did you find a good anti-nausea band yet? And if so, is it working well? I hope you are feeling better. I can't believe you work with someone who is friends with the mother of your soon to be stepkids! How rude of her to be like that. Some people just can't seem to look past what their friends tell them, and just maybe see some good in the people who have come into their lives. She doesn't know you... she has no reason to be like that. Ugh. Btw, so sorry for your BFN, hun. Here's to looking forward to a new fresh cycle!!
Suzy, honestly I'm sure the Preseed package says not to rinse the applicators because there just might be the small possibility of infection, and although it's probably not that likely to happen, the manufacturers don't want to have any liability if something were to happen. I've cleaned them like beaglemom with mild soap and water too, and they work just fine!
Misaacs, I'm glad you are feeling good after your surgery!
FBG, thanks for the video suggestion, I think I will take a look at that!
AFM, I got myself excited a couple days ago when I wiped and had some reddish/pinkish blood, and after 2 more wipes it turned a very light brown. It was too early for my pre-AF spotting. I don't EVER have anything quite like that in the middle of my TWW, and it was right around the time implantation could occur. But then there was still brown spotting for 2 more days, and I realized my body is just psyching me out and the brown spotting is starting earlier, which probably means AF will come earlier. I'm probably just still a little wonky from the cyst removal. I'm excited about next cycle. I'm curious to see how the Femara feels compared to the Clomid. There are supposed to be less side effects and it's not supposed to affect the CM... that right there will be a big test for me since you all know the Clomid definitely gave me hostile CM. It will also be interesting to have a monitored medicated cycle. I think all that stuff is going to be really interesting to see. Can anyone tell me if the trigger shot has many side effects? I think DH and I have decided we're definitely doing the IUI. We're both so ready to be pregnant, and I'm turning 38 in July, so I see no reason to wait. We've put in a lot of time and effort, so why not just jump into it finally, right?
