The LTTTC thread for everyone.

H0peful- I imagine you would be busy then. I can't imagine finding a weeks worth of fruit and veggie for $25..what a deal

We just got tired of seeing families who literally could not afford to eat right. So as a family we decided to do something about it.

We've always grown and raised most of what we eat as a family. The further down this LTTTC journey we get, the more we realize just how much it affects everything in our lives, including conception and wellness during pregnancies. Many folks don't have the choice to grow and raise their own foods so we're enjoying giving them the next best choice.

I think what your doing is great We live so close to Melbourne and our back yard is literally 4-5 steps and there's a fence for the neighbours I was raised in a small town and I can honestly say I hate where we live so I can imagine families being happy to get healthy fruit and veggies We do go into the country sometimes to buy produce but its having time to do it. I imagine with the economy the way it is in the US many families are in need too

What a great idea you had to help families and make money as well

 

[Milty]

Peace this is great news what's the next step?

HA what's going on?

I love growing my own veggies. I wish I had fruit but I don't. I do get some from my mom.

As for adoption I've always known I wanted to just like knowing I wanted a large brood. However, I was told to have mine first as it only gets harder as you get older. Well I've tried and now I'm just tried of waiting for my family. Fortunately I can continue to TTC while adopting. Only we have been at that for 2.5 years now. We are getting very close so soon I suppose. We are in selection and placement mode now. My last appt. with the SW had to be cancelled because it was the morning I started bleeding with my chemical. I just couldn't go not just emotionally but physically either. So once we get rescheduled I will get to review matches.

Anyhow I'm rambling

 

[peacebaby]

Milty I love your posts and was wondering how your adoption process was progressing....you're not rambling but sharing

Its great that you're allowed to continue ttc. Selection and placement mode sound like the very last stages Does this mean they've sorted out your fingerprint stuff and you're fully approved now? Do you have a girl/boy, age preference? Sorry about all the questions, its just so exciting!

Looks like you've ov'd, fingers crossed! Are you using progesterone this cycle?

AFM....not much to do but wait to see what a scan shows. The blood tests are just to rule out an ectopic or molar. Nothing to do but wait. Xxxx

Well I was at this stage before around Jan. and we select 3 sisters whos mom was good but dying of cancer. She had no family. Well we quickly saw this as to weird and a waiting game we didn't want. So we moved on. It was then in a review of my file the fingerprint came up.
Since we missed the last appt. it will probably be another 6 weeks before we get another . I might could have gotten it faster if I had told SW what happened but I didn't want it to effect anything.


As for Progestrone that's the big question. My levels have always been good my LP is good and was rock steady until the cyst. My doc thinks I'm fine without it and I think I agree. But at the first sign of a positive I'm getting blood work done. I'm also getting it done anyway at 7DPO.

what about the finger print? I may have missed something there

 

[Milty]

Oh well see when I was young a class mate dared me to staple my finger. So I did. now I have a scar and they couldn't get good finger prints.

[LLbean]

[Milty]

Yes I was very much the tomboy and wanted to prove I was tuff

 

[peacebaby]

in such a painful way too! Ouch!

Morning Ladies

Milty- a staple to the finger sounds painful,it would make a finger print look wierd I remember when you were looking at the three girls and their mom was dying. That was such a sad story Your baby/child that's meant to be will be there at the right time for you Milty I hope you get your BFP this cycle, if you had a chamical its a very good sign things will happen again

Peace- The waiting is tough that's for sure, have you started the steriod yet? If so how are you finding it? I don't have any side effects now except my cheeks are bit swollen and I did get eczema and didn't feel well at O but I'm great now.

Liz- How are you doing? I'll be over to say hi

H0peful- Good morning, how are things with you?

Bmom- Good morning
