Waiting just bites!

In the 1WW and it's going by very slowly. I had nausea all day so I took it easy...I hope it isn't PMS. Anyway, can we say countdown to June 1st when I go in for the beta???



Words of Inspiration.....


There are people everywhere
Who, exactly just like you,
Understand the trials
And the pain you're going through.

For, at some time in their lives
They have seen dark shadows fall
And have felt that there is no one
Who could answer their call.

They somehow they made it through
And found the strength within
To find acceptance of how things were
And to once again begin.

They are living proof that every cloud
Even those of darkest grey
All eventually pass by
To bring along a brand new day.

So just hang in there
And keep tight hold of belief
That beyond them there are rainbows
That very soon will bring happiness and relief

IUI is done...

now we wait.

Hmmm, he looks tasty!

Follie Follow-up

I went in for my CD 12 scan...about 5 follies are almost mature. I take the HSG shot tonight with the insemination scheduled for Thursday.

Other than that, nothing else is new. Leg is still healing. I aggravated it on Sunday when we all went to SeaWorld for Mother's day...so now I'm stuck laying low for a little bit.

Got a new book today....it's called "Daniel Isn't Talking". It got spectacular reviews. It's about a mother's perspective into her son's autism. I can definately relate. Here's a link...

I hope everyone is doing well. I will hobble back here sometime to check up on everyone. Until then, take care!

Dr. Appt

Today was my follow-up appt with the leg doctor. He said I have about 60% mobility thus far. The exam killed to say the least...and I was surprised at how much. I thought it was about 90% healed....wrong.

I have to give it a few more weeks (3) to see if the swelling goes down anymore. He is "suspicious" about the possibility I tore the ACL. Here's a website that explains it a little better.

On other news, Dr. Shenken my RE called...he says the test results for abnormal chromosomes were completely normal for David and I. Phew...

I'm on CD 7 and on my last day of Clomid. I've already had the night sweats so this sucks but I guess it could be worse. I go back to the RE dr. on the 16th so see how my follies are progressing...and get my shot of Ovidrel for the big day...which will be on the 19th I believe.

So, for now...I am feeling a little down in the dumps. My mind goes a mile a minute but unfortunately my body doesn't follow. I am used to hitting the gym every day and now I'm told I can't for another 3 months at least. I have being a bump on a log....so depressing. I guess I'll have to find a good book and get over it.

Liz, a special congrats to you!! I'm so thrilled it worked!!
Jess, so sweet you are...thanks for the card. I needed it.
Chassy, miss you!!
Jenn, kiss the kids for me.
Jamie, any news about doing the IUI?
Les, third time the charm???

CD 1

Nice that I get AF on the same day I go to the dr. I got a scan and no cysts...thank god.

I start Clomid on Sunday and in 2 weeks...Round 3 IUI.

BFN Part Two

I tested again today...negative. I called the doctor and the nurse wants me to come in tomorrow for an U/s to rule out cysts, etc...

It just keeps going from bad to worse. 8AM will take forever to get here.

Wish me luck PLEASE...I am barely hanging on. All I need is another cyst which means another surgery. One person can't be this unlucky, right?

BFN...

Update: 17 DPO...and still waiting. If it doesn't come by tomorrow...going to retest.



waiting for the bitch to arrive...then it's back to square one.
