Welcome to 'Trying To Conceive Over 35'

[never_give_up]

Yes Coy I agree with Ali. Your children shouldn't have any brownies till they help you and are extra nice. Even my dh can't have baked cookies till he has done his honey do's.
Congrats on your excellent grade! Be careful chopping that wood.
First day o spring and it is still too cold to go for a walk

Ali your house is coming along nicely. Looking good
I see nothing wrong with a glass of with lunch
I met my dh in 2005 so I doubt it is the same chef

 

[never_give_up]

Requested a second ultrasound from the nurse and she said OB would call back but she never did.
Wishing you ladies a wonderful evening. I am off to make dinner.

Hi ladies, just popping in to say hi and let you all know I am still alive! I've had a manic couple of days with job selection assessments and it's really caught up with me this evening. It's good to feel off as hopefully it's a sign of things progressing so I WILL NOT COMPLAIN.

I just need some major now so I'll catch up tomorrow when I hopefully feel better.

xoxo

COY!!! OMG I forgot to congratulate you on a great grade! I've been a little manic the past few days and haven't been able to complete my entire thought. So I'm sorry for not saying so in my last post. Yes, and be careful with your ribs. Maybe get one of those rib sling things? Or a tensor bandage and wrap them? Might help a little bit.

Chantal.. thanks for saying so, I'm getting there. I need to do some painting in my bathroom so I'll wait until that is done before I do the final reveal!

I'm glad you are still persevering, I would too. If there is still no movement by early next week, then maybe consider the alternative. I wonder what you'll see on the U/S?

Ali- hehe, no I don't think you'll be a mean mom I think dd's were stressing because they thought papa would have to stay at the hospital plus Kat told me outright she liked it better before Aeryn was born - so I know where her behavior is coming from, but we talked about it and she's "better" now So we had a Tea Party last night, just us girls Then I read stories...today they had brownies lol. Thanks for the congrats on the grade

Does anybody know of a good online plumbing shop? I am looking for old plumbing parts to replace in my bathroom. It's old style with the long shower rod and head attached at the top, two handles w/ 8 inch spread and a center faucet Nowhere in town can even order anything similar.

Got my wood in, dinner in the oven (lasagna mmmmm) , dd's school all finished I am proud--Teagen is learning fractions ( ) lol, and Kat knows all of her letters w/sounds

Ali- why do you have to take Zoe to the vet again? Just a checkup??

 

[alicatt]

Ali- why do you have to take Zoe to the vet again? Just a checkup??

She has stitches that need to come out. I think I could do if myself, then maybe take her in next week when things aren't as crazy for me!

I'm glad that you and your DD's are doing better and that they are understanding about Aeryn! Can I have a brownie? I love homemade brownies!

 

[Grey Eyes]

Oh, glad its just to have stitches out! Our "grampa" Cal that adopted the dd's does his own everything--neutering included

Well that is just crazy!

Lunch was anopen pilly cheesesteak and dinner was some asian chicken with brown rice. All fresh and matchbook size Yesterday for dinner i ate out

Ali. Im glad the doggies are good.

Coy. Your daily life sounds so perfect. I wish I was invited to a tea party. :cloud9

No news. Just waiting for time to pass. :

[alicatt]

YAY for sticking to your new meal plan. How are you feeling?
Did you just say you hurled your dinner? ?

 

[never_give_up]

Good morning ladies!

Sam fingers crossed for you tomorrow

Ali have fun today with Victor and then that massage sounds like heaven

Angel I hope you got some rest and are feeling better

Coy I have heard that is pretty common with the middle child to feel this way (saying she liked it better before Aeryn was born)

Yes.. called middle child syndrome, but making sure she gets attention and special time with mom and dad will help.

AFM.. day is not starting out too well. Woke up with a migraine, I'm in bed right now. Gotta get up though and go meet Victor. I just wish I felt better. I ended up just calling in sick. If I feel better ill work after I return from my lunch. We'll see.

 

[never_give_up]

Aww Ali your migraine must from stressing and being anxious about today
I hope you feel much better soon so you can enjoy your lunch with Victor
I think the massage will help with the migraine too

I'm worried I have the flu! I'm sweating and my stomach is all upset! My headache is 1/2 way gone.

He just called.. meeting him soon!

 

[Grey Eyes]

Heheheh, I think Ali that you have what doctors like to call "jiters" Seriously tho, I hope you are not getting the flu! No reason to be nervous about meeting Victor...you've been talking for months now

Chantal- how are you feeling? I know you are worried, it is natural, but this is the really sucky part of it all. I still have fx'd tho! Huge your way.

Angel- hope you get feeling better soon!

Sams- lol, your posts always make me laugh! I love the "matchbook size" comment, and so true! I have ben having issues with my diet also--like not following it lol! Can't wait for your beta ersults--is that tomorrow?

AFM- hm, is there an "about me" today? I'll try.....last night made lasagna for everyone, I was starving for some reason, then realized I'd only had toast and one yogurt all day again I have been sleeping okay I guess as Kat hasn't been waking me much if at all but I wake up all druggy feeling and tired! I am guessing the infection? That or I'm pregnant again. LOL. heheh. .........

On that note, I got a positive opk on the 14th and then negatives since then but still once in a while cm, so...wondering if I ov'd ata ll? Bd timing would put me in the 2WW so I guess we'll see. I wonder about my dh sometimes. He saays "we should wait until you are in really good shape again, for your sake" then he adds "you hate to get all preggo now, right, before you bounced back fully? Would you be depressed? You would, right?" Then he tells me to let him know when I get positive opk's so that we can carefully abstain. So I tell him when I get the positive and he pounces! wth right? Aaargh. I think secretly he wants me to get preggo again soon.

Coy - you crack me up! Yes, the thought crossed my mind that it was the jitters. But alas, I'm home and have been for a while, and still I am nauseous and have a headache. ARGH. We had a great time, and I really liked him. Who knows how he feels? He was very touching at the end. He took my hand and kissed it. So he is off to the other side of Florida for his appointment tomorrow morning. I really hope things go well and that he gets to see is LO. It is all very exciting for him!

Well isn't your DH confusing? Men are always saying how confusing women are, but I think that men are just the same! Saying one thing and doing the exact opposite! I think at this point you should just do what you are doing, NTNP and let fate do its thing. If it works well great, if not, well you were only meant to have 3! Or if/when you decide to step things up you can do so when you are ready, but for now, just let things happen

Angel - thanks for popping in yesterday, and I really hope that you got to relax a little!! I know you want to get another job, but at the same time you need to pace yourself When do you get to go in and find out how things are going in there? I must say I'm a little curious, and very hopeful that this little bean is holding on with all its mite!

Sams - yes, matchbook is right! I look at the portions and feel like I'm eating a dolls portion It does get easier, and you will feel less starved after a few days, but it is very hard! FX'd and GL for day!!!

AFM - as I said above, I'm still feeling like I have some flu-like stuff going on. Stomach upset and headache, and feeling sweaty. Not nice. My cleaning lady is here so I'll work until she goes, and then try to relax. Then my massage, hopefully my stomach issues go away soon!

 

[Samsfan]

Coy- Your posts make me laugh too... You are always eating a slice a toast and yogurt a day! Girl eat something. I hope you are feeling better! My meals are matchbook... but they taste soooo good they are satisfying!

Chantal- Keep your good spirits up! You are one strong chick! I'm praying for you

Alicatt- Why does kissing your hand sounds so romantic and innocent! I like him... Did you like him? When do you see him again? I hurled at the thought that someones uncle is a self proclaimed vet! That has to hurt the animals!

Hmmm... I was so exhausted today! I'm cautiously optimistic. Still I'm not so certain tomorrow will be different. My chest is hard and sore...but is that the drugs? Ali help a sista out? So tomorrow, I'm planning a work/pseudo trip not too far away. A diversion! with my hubby and friends. I have an event to go to, then maybe relaxation. If I'm not positive I'll be drinking lots of martinis and the matchbooks go out the window!

Hey all!

Sam.. the boobs feeling sore is normal. It's the progesterone that does it. Although that is also a symptom of being pregnant. So tomorrow is BETA test day? I really hope you get a positive!!!! If not, then hopefully you can enjoy your getaway and relax with a martini or 2! Mmm a martini sounds nice!

So yes, he was a gentleman and the kidding of the hand was quite endearing. I like him and am excited to hear from him. Tomorrow he has his ultrasound the first time he gets to see his son! Then he comes back Monday to fly out. I think he said he'd be back in 3-4 weeks and that we'd see each other then.

 

[alicatt]

Where is everyone?

I had my appt this morning and it went really well, FS is very happy with my lining. He said it looks WAY better than it did last cycle, and its a triple line. I don't have to go back again until Thursday next week.

It is Friday, so that makes me happy too. I have a bunch of errands to run tonight, then home to rest. Then tomorrow I need to paint my bathroom walls around the fixtures, then put all my art back up on the wall, then clean the fixtures we put up since the electrician didn't clean them before hanging them. I can see finger prints, and that just won't do!

Then Sunday I am going to brunch at the Breakers with my Mom for her birthday. It is a ritual we do every year, so that will be a nice break from working on the house!
