I am so overwhelmed right now, I just want to lay in bed and watch Netflix .

This cracked me up. I made a yelping noise at work, which was supposed to sound like a laugh. BWAAHAA!!

Wish-WOOHOO!!! How freaking happy are you that now you have an appointment with a real doctor. You have to take everything you know of your fertility with you so he/she can help. Also, make them sit with you and answer all of your questions. Don't let them rush you. I'm so excited!

Fezzle-Awesome about your doctor news too. Yeah!

Sis-My old old bf used to have a pit bull and we lived together. Astro was the sweetest, most caring brindle dog you could ask for. Unfortunately he got cancer a few years back and passed away. So sad...
Hope the nurse got back to you about taking something else for your throat. They will probably just say to keep drinking soup.

Hi all! So nice to see everyone and follow you along even as you are gone from the TTC board (yay!!). Talked to DH today and he definitely wants to try more naturally unless our genetic tests find some issue (balanced translocation or something) that might cause the miscarriages... I think I can give it another 4-5 months. My numbers were so good that I can do IVF in half a year as well.

 

[terripeachy]

Glad you made it over here, Driving. I could've sworn you were already here, though, but I guess not.

When do you go to have genetic testing performed?

 

[Sis4Us]

Yes I thought she was over too!!!

Well the nurse told me to take my antibiotics and Rest easier said than done since it hurts to lay on my neck!!!
Hopefully these antibiotics will start working real soon!!

 

[kfs1]

Hope you feel better soon, Sis. Sounds awful.

 

[Sis4Us]

I added pics of the Boys and Girls in my journal if y'all want to check them out !!!

Figured that way everyone would know who I was talking about!!

 

[nessaw]

Hi all.
Bfn this morning so pg hormones gone and onto a new cycle. We've got 2 black labradors as well. Am on my phone so it won't let me do photos. Will try when on comp.
Sis hope u feel better soon.

 

[battyatty]

Wish I am so happy for you, about time they sorted it out! Good luck for the 10th

Terri I think you are going have trouble letting that doggy go.

Sis & SPP I feel for you, nothing worse than the barff barff, but its all for the best, only another 8-10 weeks left!

Fezzle Thats great news about your new GP, it sounds like a much better set-up

Driving Higher honey and welcome!

Nessaw Thinking of you sweetie, I love black labs!

Also did u get your AMH tested that's Egg quality u might want to ask your friend about Ubiquinol!!! Hang in there LOVE I know it's easier said than done but we r here for U!!

I cant get an AMH test, only FC do that test over here, and mine wont touch me as I can get pregnant!

After that temp drop yesterday I really did expect AF this morning... But then this morning another temp rise?

Trouble is DF and myself opened a good bottle of wine last night, and I drank 3 glasses while cooking the dinner, thinking I was out??? Ooopppss!

 

[terripeachy]

HA!!HA!! Atty-I wouldn't worry about it. You know, most of us are all about doing what makes us happy. Although, they say that drinking increases your temperature, but I don't know if I really believe that in the TTC sense. Generally, your temp is up while drinking, but I have a feeling that once you go to sleep it goes back to where it needs to be. Who knows?

I appreciate every day with Roxy. We went for a walk to the animal hospital this morning. It's about a block, and then we slowly jogged back. She has more weight to lose, but I think our walks around the house is more exercise than she's used to. When we got home, she ate, and then I brushed her hair. It's always hard giving them back, but someone else has a better home for her. I feel bad for her original owners. They simply couldn't afford the surgery when she got hit and they had to surrender her. The lady at the adoption center said the owner was crying and so upset. You get the perfect dog and then have to give it up. It's making me tear up thinking about it. Foster parents are less likely to foster once they have their own dog, and I have a special house (no kids, no other pets, quiet), so they like me as a foster mom! I guess in 9 months we'll reevaluate the no kids/quiet.

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Sis your family is adorable . Looks like you're gonna have to beat up a few girls in the future over your boys . You feeling any better this morning?

So heartbreaking about Roxy's original owners terri . I remember people scoffing at pet insurance before it got popular but it's definitely a good thing to have.

atty I wish I had m/s! It would make me feel better . Right now I do have a splitting headache though and I'm not feeling this run I want/need to go on. Feels like it's wrapping around my entire skull, with a heavy concentration on the right side, ow! And hey, a good bottle of wine is excellent trouble .

Glad you're back in the game nessaw .

oldermom

How are you today Argyle?

Did you have an appt today Smiles? If so GL!

And a big :wave: to all you other lovelies! Man my head hurts!

 

[battyatty]

Terri I so so wish you that re-evaluation in 9 months

I did forget to mention though that most unusual for me, the wine didn't stay down. I totally regret barfing such a great bottle of wine. What a waste!!!

 

[Sis4Us]

I too wish I had M/S it would be way better than this Strep at least I could eat if I wanted too and sleep a Lil!!!

Thanks ladies yes Mom is pretty tough on my Bigs GFs and for good reason everything I've said about them has been true so maybe he will listen NEXT time .... Doubt it but I can hope right!!!
Hes got the prettiest blue eyes u ever did see but he's a push over too!! Not looking forward to the LO dating I think he will be a Lil picky so I'll be grateful for that!!

I still look like I swallowed a Football idk if the Antibiotics are working u would think day 3 I would be better I don't have a temp today so hopefully that's a good sign!!
Don't think I'll be able to do my Saturday errands though

Hi ladies....well we told the kids Thursday night at dinner. Have them their bags and it was hilarious watching them all concentrate reading the notes attached. My son was the first to say " what the heck" then my daughter said " you're gonna be pregnant?" My step-daughter said " that's what I thought too" and smiled. My step-son said " but I don't want a little brother or sister" lol. He's the youngest. So ten they started asking questions and my husband and I said " you didn't read the tags if you're still not sure what's going on" so finally I had to say "yes I'm pregnant". We chatted about it for another 10 minutes or so and after that we moved on to talking about something else and my son says 10 more minutes after that " wait....you're pregnant?!" Whahahahahahaha. OMG! I love my son but sometimes he's a little slow on the uptake! Lol. I thought my son would be upset since he said MONTHS ago we didn't have room for another baby and that there were enough ppl plus 2 big dogs in the house. Lol. The following morning m step-son hands me a piece if paper that he wrote down baby names on. I asked him when he did that because he should have been sleeping. He said he stayed up to write some names down. And then they all started throwing out names so they're excited.

My genetic counseling and ultrasound was yesterday. That fluid they look for in the back of the neck-I forget what it's called but being over a certain size they said it could be an indication of a chromosomal disorder likes Down's Syndrome or something. In any ever mine showed it was well within normal range so I was thankful for that. I also had them take blood to do the MaterniT21 test and should have the results for that along with all the other stuff they are checking for my mid next week. Oh and the baby has grown so much since it's first scan. He or she looks like a baby now and not a bean. Lol. Dr said everything looks good and in one of the pics it looks like the baby is hold up the #4 so the the tech wrote " I have 4 siblings" on the picture for me to take home. Lol. The worse part was having to hold my pee for them to do the scan! When I finally got to go I swore I was gonna pass out from pleasure sitting there on the toilet! Lol. I think they may have heard me moaning and groaning as they passed the bathroom. Lol. I'll post the sono pic as well.

Now onto you lovely ladies....
Sis hope you are feeling better after being on the meds for a couple days. Without fail when I was a kid I would get strep throat once a year for years! It was horrible so I feel your pain. Oh and I won't bid giants you on eBay, I'll take pity on the sick. Lol

SPP....hope your headache went away and you're feeling better. I'm hoping your headache is replaced my nausea soon.

Atty...it's so early the wine wouldn't do any harm and being as though you puked it up it makes me wonder.....hmmmmm, what else is going on?????

Katie....how are you lady?

Terri....happy you get to keep Roxy longer. I'm a sucker for animals so I probably wouldn't want to give her back. And I hope you the that disruption in 9 months.

And a big hiya to all the other ladies.

 

[terripeachy]

SPP-I hope you're reading this after your run! I think pet insurance is expensive. I don't know that I would get it. Not saying that I could afford anything that happened to my pet, but I don't know if it's really worth it.

Sis-What a beautiful family. Your niece in the back makes me laugh. She reminds me of me! Always doing silly stuff for the camera. And what handsome cowboys. HA!!HA!

Atty-Girl, you crack me up. Sorry you couldn't keep the wine down. Am I sorry??? And we wait...hee hee.

Smiles-I had a feeling your kids would be confused. That's great that they are excited for their little brother/sister. The pee story had me cracking up. moaning and groaning. HA!!HA!!

Wish-Even higher temps??!! I have never seen such a chart in all of my 6 months of looking. I don't know what to make of it. How do you feel?

I'm at work today trying to write my newsletter. The program keeps acting funky. This newsletter is not meant to be. It's due today, but it's obviously going to be super late. I'm so irritated because I tried to work on it at home and that didn't work, so I drive into work and it's still not working. AARRGGHH!!! I may have to give it another shot on Monday because I am NOT coming back here tomorrow.

 

[Sis4Us]

Thanks Terri yes they are both a Laugh when they want to be But the youngest is a Blast she always makes me smile!!!

The oldest came to check on me last nite and bring her BFF to see my house they both kept asking the LO about a Lil Sis!!!

Smiles glad everything tested OK can't wait to here how the Materniti21 goes so u will know Gender in a week!!
So glad your kids are excited about the baby!!

Hi everyone,

SPP Thanks for asking, I'm doing ok. Getting over the disappointment of last cycle. My hubby got a puppy for everyone on Thursday. A little mini schnauzer, it's a little girl we named Coco. I'm no longer the only girl in the house. Coco really helped. Holding a little puppy really helps take the stress. The boys excitement makes it oh so worth it. Oh forgot to tell you, I forfeited my new couch for a puppy for the boys. In must admit my husband and I are already attached to her.

Right now, I'm sitting here waiting for Fed x to deliver my gonal-f. Only thing is my cycle is delayed because of the prometrium I was taking. I wish she would show her face. But my husband and I will take advantage of this time. We didn't BD with prometrium. Do to high risk and having to get cerclages we usually practice forced abstinence during parts of the pregnancy.

 

[Wish4another1]

Argyle - we to have a new puppy - and she is helping us too!!! Except when she barks at night when I want to sleep!!!!

Terri- I am with you about my chart... I Seriously am wondering what is happening... I have even tarted taking my temp several times to verify it... and no cross hairs - yesterday I messed around with it and forced my o date on it... But I feel weird about that... I am sure I ovulated Sunday afternoon/ night - my temp went up Monday over 97... Ugh I don't know... I feel ok st cramps daily and pink cm too...I try not to symptom spot as every cycle I am wrong!!!! I want to think I have a little bean but the cramps/spotting didn't happen with my other two so my mind is saying no... But ???
Our bodies sure are confusing!!!!
Happy Saturday everyone!!!

 

[felcity 45]
