Yeah Derek, my DH, loooooves watching movies. And hockey, of course. I'm most likely the only Canadian who's not a big hockey fan (but don't tell anyone, they might kick me out!) LOL!

That sounds like a lovely time, though how old is your son? My nephew is grandbaby number one and he's spoiled. Mine definitely won't be THAT spoiled, but that's okay Oddly enough my mum is trying for another to keep my sister company. She was a surprise, but my mum is still young, she's only 42. She really wants to be pregnant together, but she's only giving herself one more cycle.

No problem, hunny! I sooo hope that cycle one works for you, it would be awesome I am trying so hard to not symptom spot. I'm in TWW limbo, 7 days in, 7 days to go lol! And no, have never been to a hockey game, but I don't mind watching youngins lol.

And aww, I bet your son's a dolly. I'll spoil mine for sure, I already spoil my baby sister and she's not even mine. Though I did watch her for 6 months before she could get in to daycare. Good idea on getting the clomid and opks before Christmas closures, I barely made it in for my IUI before they closed for 2 weeks.

I ended up telling my boss what was going on cause he kept getting mad at me for missing time. He was actually human about it, though, which is bizare 'cause he's a total jackass lmao. Though I am sure he'll be annoying when I actually am preggo. Are you telling your boss or no?

Yes. We are guaranteed an unpaid 9 months here but I will get 9 months at half wage because my work covers that after a certain amount of hours worked, and the 9 months even just during pregnancy are more than enough.

My baby sister is crazy about me, it's adorable. She calls me Keenan (My name's Caitlyn) and gets really excited when my mum says I am coming over. She's my little sunshine. She's also the reason my womb aches soo bad lmao. I've seen her at least once a week, usually more since she was born. And I want her neice/nephew to be close to her and be like a playmate so she'll want to sleep over at my place when she's older

I'm glad that you think it's a good idea to let management know, though. Are you going to be getting mat leave?

I looked in to it a bit more, and it's a full year here actually. Which is nice as most daycares don't allow children under 17 months. There are a select few who allow 12 month olds, but usually we have to resort to dayhomes which I am iffy on.

Having a little helper around will be nice, and hopefully he's close to the little one. My step kids are 16 and 14, and not too pleased on our decision. But that's teenagers for you. Maybe one day they will realize I'm here for keeps lol It doesn't help that their mother dislikes me but we'll work it out. Even though she's quite a bit older than myself she definitely doesn't act her age.

Well! I am off to do some Christmas shopping Have you done any?

I am sorry AF came, but it's now fairly soon until your IUI, I am excited for you I bet the next few weeks will rush by. And with Christmas and New Years right around the corner as well you won't be dwelling the entire time

I am so glad we get a year here, I would hate to miss all the firsts, and 6 weeks is sooo young! And I love Derek's kids, but I have only been in their lives just over 3 years, and they're teenagers. Specialists recommend not even getting married when the kids are between the ages of 9 and 17, but what do they know? Hahaha.

I feel as if AF is on her way soon She's due around the 30th.

Okay, I'll add you right away! Sorry it took so long for me to reply, I've been beat these last few days, with all the Christmas shopping and whatnot. Going to my mum's soon

I am so glad that your son gets on so well with your DH, that's great to hear and I think of my stepdad as more of a father figure than my own dad, my dad and I are more like buddies. Doesn't help that he lives across the country.

So as for the IUI, my doc had me test every evening between 5 and 6 and then the very next morning after +opk come in for 8am prebooked appointment. But I got a surprise + the first time I checked and decided to go in anyways the next morning. Derek thinks we're pregnant this month. I wish I had his optimism, lol. I haven't taken any pregnancy tests, I got stung with that last month lol. And I am 10 dpo today. Have a lot of twinges and cramps today and was weepy yesterday, but other than that (and those could be AF symptoms) not much goin' on LOL. Thanks for crossing your fingers for me, though

I a soo excited for you! But sorry to hear you aren't enjoying the Clomid. But if it means a step closer to that sticky bean, the headaches and moodiness will totally be worth it!

I cracked and tested today at 12dpo. BFN Looks like I'm out of options for now... We can't afford AI for at least a few more months, probably not until after the wedding, though, and I don't see my doc until February anyways. She's always booked sooo far in advance.

But I kinda blame my donor... No pregnancies have even been reported for him. Didn't find that out until after I chose. But DH wants to do at home now... If we can find anyone, that'd be nice.... I dunno. Just so confused. This is supposed to be easy! Grrr.

Yup, February 29th, 2012 Leap year. I am super excited, but we still don't have a venue and soooo much to do still lol!But yeah, it's crazy how much sperm is, it still boggles me.

I really hope that it is just too early but I don't feel different at ALL. And been getting AF cramps... Just feel as if she's on her way. I won't drink or anything stupid until it's confirmed, but yeah, I don't think this is my month.

I tried adding you on facebook, maybe you should add me, there are so many ladies with your name LOL Caitlyn Ball and my profile photo is of my baby sister saying "cheeeese!"

Did you all try natural supplements to ttc? Like Vitex Maca Evening Primose oil( for ewmc) and Flaxseed oil?

 

[Tonia0989]

I just started TTC. I have PCOS and last year I could go months (7 or more) without a period....I tried Metformin-did not work! Now I am on supplements.

 

[Tonia0989]

My last two cycles have been normal... which I have NEVER experienced in my life... I would be lucky to have spotting...lol..
