Not sure where I fit in here

[KatO79]

Haha I understand. I use to never say anything so now that I openly tell it how it is I always get told that I'm mean or a bitch. And my sister likes to use it as reason to be bitchy with me (when she's not pregnant since she's nicer when she is XD ). But oh well. I'd rather seem mean than be walked on any more.

Usually Roger doesn't say anything. He's pretty timid around my family which I don't understand since he's snarky with me and always pushes his sbling's buttons XD So I think it really caught her off gaurd.

Sounds like how my mother would react as well And it sounds like your sister should be pregnant all the time Totally get it though. I just feel like I need to be a bit careful in how I say things as otherwise my mother may go into a rage and make a scene I've seen her do it and I wasn't saying anything bad either, she just didn't like it that I didn't jump when she said I should

He sounds like my DH. Mine is a bit conflict shy (with almost everyone else but me apparently) but even more so when it's my family which I don't get.

Hi deafgal :wave:

Hi kat!

 

[KatO79]

Thought I'd update: I got back from the clinic and there's only 1 follie this time, in my left ovary (plus a couple of small ones in my right) But if it's a special, prime quality, "Golden Egg" type follie then it's alright with me I've had 2 follies the other 3 IUIs so you never know

She wants me to trigger at 1:15 AM on the night between Saturday and Sunday and the IUI will be Monday afternoon at 1:15 PM. I asked her about the trigger being at 36 hours this time since last time they wanted me to trigger 24-25 hours before. But she said I was around CD16 those times on IUI day and this time I'll be about CD12 so we can trigger at 36 hours before this time since the risk of Oing earlier is minimal. So here's hoping she's right and that that made sense, I'm not always good at explaining things

 

[deafgal01]

Good luck kat!

 

[HCas]

Sorry I've been gone. Was in the hospital for a few nights

 

[deafgal01]

Are u ok now? Why in the hospital if I can Ask...

 

[HCas]

I'be been struggling with insomnia for awhile now and the other day I finally passed out but it was while I was out and about and I guess hit my head pretty good so Roger took me to make sure I didn't have a concussion. They wanted to keep an eye on me so I wound up staying a few nights.

But I'm all good now. I've even been able to get to sleep now.

 

[KatO79]

Glad to hear it wasn't anything very serious HCas

AFM my IUI is tomorrow at 1:15 PM Here's hoping the Easter Bunny has given me a Golden Egg this time

 

[deafgal01]

How scary! Glad you are ok!

Good luck Kat!

 

[KatO79]

So my IUI went well today. DH's count was 30 million and the follie was starting to change shape and release the egg so we caught it earlier this time. So here's hoping

 

[HCas]

Yay FX for you that this is your cycle. Maybe we get lucky and this is both of our cycles ^^ If it's not mine I'll probably be moving to WTT since we'll have a newborn sharing our room for a few months XD

That or we'll become very good at planning ttc around grandma time XD my MIL has already told me many times that she doesn't mind watching Ave-Marie while we do shopping and such soooooo XP

Yes it would be nice seeing as how it's my birthday May 1st and I had my chemical at the end of April so a super sticky BFP this time would be great We'll see how it goes though, my hopes are pretty low and I'm going to avoid getting carried away with any "symptoms". As long as I don't get AF 2, almost 3, days earlier than anticipated like last time that'd be good

Here's hoping it is so you don't have to go WTT But good that you have someone to watch the baby if need be

 

[HCas]

I know that feeling. I almost like better when she comes a few days late then when she comes early. If that makes me crazy oh well. Whenever she comes early its ALWAYS when I have something planned. Like once we were going to some springs and I was like "Oh yeah she shouldn't come til Monday because of this medicine I'm taking." Nope. She came that day full force and I spent most of the day on the bank watching Roger and his siblings playing. It wasn't cool.

XD Yeah I'm pretty excited about that. She has no idea what she signed herself up for. But she may get a break for a little because the FIL and his wife are coming down the month after she's born and staying for a month so we may be like. "Here baby time" and run off. If only to shop XD

 

[KatO79]

Yeah I guess I'd prefer it to come late than early if I had the choice. But late isn't fun either as it can get your hopes up. I once had AF come 5 days late and in that time I'd gotten my hopes a bit up

Good thing you have lots of people to help you with the baby It's nice to have some options so you don't overload e.g. one person. When we have our baby we won't have many options other than DH's parents since I wouldn't trust my baby alone with my NPD mother and his little brother (at age 32-33 no less) would be too immature to handle it. His big brother is divorced now so not much of an option unless it's a bit of an emergency. That's it. Don't think I'd let my cousin at this point babysit either. Any other family I have is in the US and I recently concluded my big brother also has NPD (like my mother does) and my sister is either also a case or she's just under my brother's "spell" so.... I've actually given up on having a good relationship with them due to my brother's constant "verbal" abuse (since we communicate only via email) and my sister defending him.

 

[deafgal01]

Yay for a nice report Kat! Fingers crossed the egg meets the spermie!

How are you doing hc?

 

[HCas]

Hey guys. I won't be on for a few days. My grandpa is passing and we're gonna go over to see him for the last time and help my grandma as much as possible. I probably won't be on til after his funeral.

 

[deafgal01]

Sorry to hear that. I will be praying for your family to find comfort in his last days and the funeral.

 

[KatO79]

I'm so sorry HCas, take the time you need

 

[HCas]

Thanks guys. He's more stable now but it's only a matter of time. The next few days I'm also taking my dad's place and going back and forth to check on him since my dad couldn't stay on this coast any longer (work and my step brother).

Aw
