I do have a tendancy to get the shakes even when not prego, jsut seems like I am burning more energy when I am prego (which, I suppose, I am) but it sure is annoying! 
I trimmed the trees, trimmed all the bushes, cut down the huge thistles that have started to grow transplanted a bunch of my sickly flowers 
, raked the yard, cleaned off my hand-planted patio of flag-stone rocks, bathed the girls, did two loads of laundry, made a fruit salad, made the girls a second dinner (kids can EAT!) and now they are sleeping....I am exhausted and my back and girdle muscles are killing me 
serves me right, huh! Anyway as I skipped dinner I am starving as usual so wondering what to eat this late. The girls wanted those Ramen noodles (without seeasoning) and man was it hard not to take a bite! I am properly addicted 
Think I'll go eat a salad and go to bed 
Looks like I had my O yesterday, so all is well
At least I think I did, check out my nice temp rise overnight
Now we just have to hope that thelived about 36 hours, and the 2WW wait begins!
Claire.. how did the HPT look today? Is it a?
Congratz on the OFingers crossed for you.
Still getting positives but only a smidge darker...was driving myself nuts comaring lines on the 7 tests I have done...all with second lines but still not dark.
So I went & got a digital this morning & got a PREGNANT..makes it more real seeing it in words
Now i just gotta pray it sticks

Coy That is too funny that you were cooking burgers the night I said no McDonalds for you! Burgers are fine in moderation, it is the extra fat that is added by fast food places. When I make burgers I usually use a lean meat, and I grill them so much of the fat drips away. That helps! Just eat! As for the low blood sugar feelings, I get that occasionally too. Although I'm surprised that you got it after having eaten fruit and granola and shredded wheat. None of those things would cause a sugar spike and then a drop. Maybe it really was the exertion of the walk and heat with being pregnant that caused it. Have they done a glucose tolerance test on you? You might want to check that out, as gestational diabetes is not uncommon.
Personally, I think they ought to test for it, in both my other pregnancies they did, but I was woth a different doctor (a WOMAN ) LOL! So I use dh's diabetes at home test kit to check occasionally. Today I am trying two steamed eggs and a nectarine for a late breakfast and see how that works I did like eating earlier yesterday then about dinner time we just have fruit or a veggie salad.
no matter what! 
lol.... I have an awesome feeling for you this month, I am so glad they flushed your other ovary out!

Ali- yep, I cook them lean too and very rarely....Also, re: the gestational diabetes. Funnily enough my doctor told me he does not test for that u nless he notices something looking wrong
Nuts to feeling icky, but it does happen doesn't it! We women go through these monthly nightmares
I rarely eat burgers too, although I do use hamburger meat on occasion to make tacos (but season it myself, cause the seasoning packages are full of all sorts of crap). Sometimes I make a yummy meat sauce for spaghetti, but then I put it over spaghetti squash. I actually prefer it that way. It is yummy, filling and so much better for you!! Sounds like you need to stick with more lean protein for breakfast, maybe have the fruit for lunch or a mid-afternoon snack. I have heard that eating fruit in the late afternoon or evening is a hindrance to weight loss due to the high level fo sugar in them. Not sure what they say about it when you are pregnant!!
So right now, no progesterone suppositories! The clinic here uses a different kind of suppository, they don't need to be refrigerated, and they are 1/10th the cost of the ones my RE in FL prescribed! Yep.. only $25 for a 12 day supply vs $250 for a 15 day supply. That is a HUGE difference! Plus the ones she has don't leave any residue behind unlike the ones I was taking. The crinone was literally disgusting!
is on her way.
I'm going to wait until we do a p4 test next Tues/Wed. That way we'll know if mine is actually low or whether it is in the normal range. I will probably opt to do it either way just in case, but I thought I would wait to see if my levels were normal or low before I did. Always nice to know what your body does naturally instead of just giving it hormones I may not need, ya know?

Ali, I don't blame you for waiting on the progesterone to make sure! Yes, just keep an eye on it, if it is normal and doc says leave it alone maybe just check again about 6 weeks of you get your bfp? To make sure the corpus luteum (I love spelling that word
How are you feeling? Feeling bfp'ish at all ??
And where is Jess?
So I don't think I'm feeling symptoms but I sure as heck felt like I was! My tummy has been flip flopping all day long and I've been dead tired. It could be the heat though, it is about 90 here and there is no A/C, at least there is a nice breeze off the lake. 
I'll spin on my head 
if that will help keep it up there
I hate to say no when they want to exercise but my body is designed differently than a 3-year old sized work out So dh is trying to distract them and I can split out the back door Am I terrible? 
Aaargh! I want to go for one of my super walks but my 3 year old wants to come...that downsizes my power walk from "Super" to "Meager" lol!
What's really sad is it was cool and cloudy when I left... A minute and a half into my walk the clouds disappeared and the burning hot sun came out and baked me for the entire walk! So I took a shower when I got home to cool off and when I got done with that I was amzed to step outside into a deluge of cooling rain and awesome cool breeze, dark clouds, thunder and lightning! 
It is still going on hours later Ahhhh...sizzle, right?! Feels so nice, dh and the girls and I went and stood outside for an hour or so just loving it.
