Oh ERose!! I'm happy that they cleared the other tube and NOW don't you feel great about being more proactive? I'm so excited for you. They say that people that have already had a baby have less pain, but I know for me it was cramping and painful, even if it was only painful for a few minutes. I guess it was uncomfortable/painful/cramping. I don't know how else to say it. Even the first part was bad for me, when they were doing the "cleaning" prior to the dye. HA!!HA!! But...no matter what anyone says, if you have to do it, you have to do it. Enjoy the rest of your day off and just take it easy.

nessaw-Have a great weekend, babe.

moni-I forgot to say that I'm sorry to hear about your biennial (I looked that up!) hacking cough that lasts for months. That has to be a pain. Don't go to the library!

 

[nessaw]

Thanks terri. Am out for a belated birthday lunch with the girls. Back to work on monday for the first full day since the mc.

 

[kfs1]

Erose - sounds so painful but I'm happy that you're all clear now!

 

[MomOf3Girls]

ERose~ Hopefully the hsg cleaned out the other tube for good and you will have a better chance at your bfp in the near future.

 

[Wish4another1]

Erose - Ouch!! I am glad it is over for you!! and like others have said now on to BFP!!!

nessaw- happy belated birthday and I will be thinking about you monday on your first day back to work!

Moni - your trip sounds absolutely amazing!!! if I had facebook I would so be asking to be your friend!! I am sure those pictures are so cool!!!

to everyone!!

AFM: I am enjoying a night in Chicago - I am helping with the Tillman 5K tomorrow morning - starting at Soldier Field!! Should be fun except its going to be freezing!!! I had a pastrami sandwhich from a good Jewish Deli - thought I would share a few pics!! and of course food pics for my friend Terri!!!

 

[oldermom1975]

I have a bunch of photos on facebook if you want to befriend me let me know.

To everyone testing this weekend FXed!!!

Your trip sounds just amazing!

Ok... I'm sorry, but why have I heard so many times that an HSG is just a "little cramping"? That was more than a little cramping, it was worse (and different) than any cramping I've ever had. The assistant had to remind me to relax and keep breathing. Anyway, I know it isn't like that for everyone.... as it turns out, the dye went straight through my left tube, no problem... if it had done the same in the right tube, I think the whole thing would've been cake. But when he still wasn't seeing the dye push through my right tube, he had to apply more pressure (and I suppose he can't control exactly where that pressure goes), and I literally almost screamed out loud. As it turns out, his extra pressure counted for something, because it finally pushed its way through my right tube, and then bam, done. The radiologist was excellent... he explained it all to me afterward and said the dye could very well have been clearing some gunk out of the way since it had such a hard time getting through. I'm so glad that's over.

Sorry about the pain, Erin!! Mine was like yours, too- extra pressure because they had to push through my left tube. The flip side is that this increases your chances this cycle!!

That is a good looking sandwich- and I am not normally a pastrami fan!

 

[Sis4Us]

Erose sound like that Pain will Help get U that BFP!!!! The things we do for the Kiddos

Terri FX th WW stays far away!!!

Did I Miss a Update from Vjean??? Hope her scan went well!!

 

[terripeachy]

Ooh Wish-I love Chicago! On my next trip, there is a pizza place I want to try that was on Diners, Dives and Drive-Ins. If you're interested in the name, let me know. I pizza!! hee hee. That sandy looks so good! Yum, yum...Love pastrami and anything from a Jewish deli. Thanks for the pictures! Have fun tomorrow at the 5k. I really enjoy volunteering/cheering at races almost as much as running. The runners really appreciate all you are doing for them. I like when they have name tags too, so you can yell out 'looking strong Megan..good job John' etc..HA!!HA!!

nessaw-Enjoy your birthday lunch and I hope Monday is a great day back for you.

Oldermom-Are you ttc this month, or is your chart just for fun? Wasn't sure about your timing when you left hubs to head back to the states.

Sis-No update from Vjean today. She is probably still busy with work.

AFM-Ugh..I can't stand feeling like this. I guess after my HSG my body is back to normal, and PMS is a normal thing. I just don't know anything about it since it's been so long.

 

[VJean]

My scan went well. Just one little bean in there. Measuring bang on 6 weeks. Although that would be my LMP date....I actually O'd a few days late so I should be 5w4d, maybe 5d....no heartbeat yet, but doc did say there was a "flicker", he just didn't try and measure it today. I go back on the 17th for another ultrasound.

So sorry you have to give up Roxy, Terri.

Erin, I have a good feeling about your HSG and clomid.... (We really need some lucky shamrock smiley faces so I can insert it here).

I'm off to bed....see y'all in the morning!

 

[Sis4Us]

Thanks for checking in Vjean so Glad everything went well!!!

We r pretty close since I was measuring Behind and U R measuring Ahead !!!

I go for my 2nd scan 3/18!!

 

[Smiles013]

Hi ladies!!!

Erose....OUCH!!!!!! BUT it sounds like they got you all cleared out. Hope your BFP is just around the corner.

VJean....glad the scan went well, a flicker is great news!!!

Moni...trip sounds SOOOOOOO amazing! $2.50 for a haircut?!!! Seriously!!! And FX for you during the TWW

Terri....so sorry Roxi is leaving but I'm sure she felt the love and and got to smell a couple good meals cooking in the crock-pot!

Oldermom....I have to admit I don't know how much stronger I can be with not wanting to know the sex of the baby. When I'm holding that envelope in my hands we'll see how much will power I have. Lol.

Nessaw....have fun celebrating your b-day and will be thinking of you Monday.

Sis.... How are ya???? How'd the bidding go on the doppler? I received mine on Thursday, I went with the C1 instead if the B, they're basically the same. It's so easy to use like it a lot better than the one I've been using.

Wish....bundle up!!!! You're better than me standing out in the cold! Lol

Katie, Atty, Kfs....how are you ladies?

Sry if I've missed anyone. Hope you all have a great weekend.

 

[kfs1]

Vjean - sounds like a great scan!

Sis - how are you and the family feeling?

Smiles - it must be soooo hard not to peak in that envelope.

Older - ditto Terri's question because your chart looks great!

Moni - your trip sounded unbelievable. Very jealous!

Terri - hope you get another temp jump today.

Nessaw - Happy Birthday. Sorry - is it sometime this weekend?

Wish - great pics! I've never been to Chicago but definitely want to make the trip.

Hi to everyone else.

I'm out for this month as I expected. Heading down to my husband's school today to help him out with some things but then we're going to Arthur Avenue to grab some food so I'm excited about that.

 

[terripeachy]

Vjean-Awesome about the scan!! Yay for one bean. That's all I need. HA!!HA!!

kfs1-Sorry you're officially out now. I'll update the other page. I had a spot on the toilet paper this morning, so I didn't test, and again, I wait..It's such a letdown.

Smiles-glad you got your doppler. Hope you love it.

Gotta get the pooch back to the shelter. She saw me take her container of food outside, so she knows something's up. Luckily she enjoys car rides.

 

[Sis4Us]

Smiles U R a strong Lady if I could get the MaterniT21 Now I would!!
I also got the C1-p it looked nicer and it supposedly shipped but has no tracking on it yet!!
Can't wait to get it!!!

Terri I hope Roxi finds her forever home Real soon!!

Hope everyone has a great Weekend!!!

Still hoping for you, Terri, as long as the witch doesn't fly- you have a chance!
As far as my chances, we were able to DTD once in my fertile time, it just happened to be the day before ovulation. So who knows. Sans meds this month- after all of this time, I was curious how everything was working without the "grease".

My scan went well. Just one little bean in there. Measuring bang on 6 weeks. Although that would be my LMP date....I actually O'd a few days late so I should be 5w4d, maybe 5d....no heartbeat yet, but doc did say there was a "flicker", he just didn't try and measure it today.

Perfect!

Older - ditto Terri's question because your chart looks great!

Thanks!

 

[felcity 45]

Hi Ladies,

I'm not very good at this I pop in for a quick update and pages later lol
Will try and post properly later hope you lovely ladies are having a good weekend

Oh and I completely forgot about the other thread!! How do you ladies keep up?? I have to say though it's really nice to read about everyones trials and tribulations makes you realise your not on your own with this crazy journey of ups and downs

 

[Smiles013]

Well ladies....I am holding in my hands at this very moment the envelope that will tell me if it's a boy of a girl! it's taking everything in me not to open it!!!! I am jut going to put it up and forget about it. Out of sight out of mind right? Lol

 

[terripeachy]

Smiles-Give it to your husband!! HURRY!! hee hee.

Felcity-Was wondering how you were doing...Yes, it is fun keeping up with everyone else. Even when you're bumming, someone else has something interesting to say to keep your spirits up.

 

[Smiles013]

Terri....I am going to hide it from him too. He can't be trusted! Lol. Maybe he'll forget about it and if he asks about it I'll just play dumb. Lmao.

How did it go with dropping Roxy off???

 

[terripeachy]

Oh..well yeah, I like that idea even better. Hopefully he'll forget about it. fxfx HA!!HA!!

I was so sad. When Kyle was saying bye to her, I went to the kitchen and boo-hooed.Then we got to the shelter, and I told the vet about her tumor/bump on her shoulder. They took her to the back, and then he came back and said that when she got hit, they had to give her a lot of injections/painkillers, and that is where they stuck them. They think that it may be scar tissue from those IVs. They said they would look at it and if she needed to go back to foster they would let me know. Then I asked if I could go see her, and they said 'yes.' They were mixing up a huge bowl of food, even though she had already had breakfast. I said 'Bye Roxy...mama loves you.' She started to follow me out of the door, and I said 'You can't go. You can't go.' Then when I closed the door, I heard a whimper. I cried more in the car, and then I drove home and cleaned up her bowls and crate. I have to wash her blankets later, but my house looks like a dog was never here. boohoo.. She was a good one. Maybe we should have adopted her.

They usually call me when she's adopted and the shelter is about to close, so I hope they call me tomorrow with good news that someone adopted her.
