Morning all,
How are you holding up Lynne? It is already 2 days into this week. You are getting there. Any symptoms?
Hope everyone had a nice weekend. We had a lot of rain this weekend so many camping plans were cancelled but it was nice to get some housework done and re organize.
Baby Dust all around,
Heather

I'm still around; a whole 8dpiui and counting, so far not much, I've had a sore back the last couple days but I'm guessing I need a chiropractor appt. I just got back from the gym, I didnt do much of a workout but I did go for a walk around the lake with a girl friend and then walked home ( almost 4 mile altogether). I've got the lawn to mow and dirt to spread on the garden then I'm taking a nap before I start cooking supper, and it's only Tuesday.... I'm not gonna survive the week.
Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

Hey Ladies,
I hope all had good weekends and a wonderful Memorial Day.
Heather, I hope you're feeling well. Any m/s yet?
Lynn, I also hope that you're feeling well and keeping my fingers cross for you.
Af made her visit to me this weekend. So, another round of clomid for me. SUCKS!
Mucho Baby dust to all!

Hey Susan,
Good to hear from you. Sorry about your visitor. She does suck when she comes around. Did you find out if you ovulated?
I am not sure what m/s is but everything seems to be going ok so far. I took a blood test today for them to check my progesterone and hcg levels so I should hear soon.
Take Care,
Baby Dusting,
Heather

Hey susan, I know you are gonna get alot of advice like " do't worry, relax and it will happen" and all that crap, just ignore it and yep you heard it relax, take some time for your self. The clomid makes me very ill so I hope you react better than I do, try and keep busy and the time goes by faster ( shopping is theraputic ) ( bugging the hubby works too). I hope this round goes better for you.
Morning Heather, one more day down and some more to go, you would think that as busy as I am I wouldn't have time to worry and stress about all this fertility stuff but it seems to sneak up and jump out when you are not looking. My daughter is going for a quick holiday to Banff ( the mountains) with her father, she leaves tonight and will be back Sunday; I'm going to go through daughter withdrawls. I have garden to finally plant today and an advance technique class to go to tonight so it's off to the races again, ( I was a good girl yesterday and finished most of the yard work and cleaned house).
Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

Hey Lynne,
Glad you are holding up. Even if you keep busy it does not seem to help, I have tried. But it is getting closer each day. I am sure gardening is a great activity.
I have one week down finally from my test. These weeks seem to keep going so slow now as well. I am glad to be in the next stage but I wish it could hurry along to the 12th week.
I feel real bloated today and my feet are swollen. I have not gained any more weight than I would when af visits but I feel bloated like I did after my laparoscopy. I hear I should get used to it.
What day next week do you get to test? Your doc is doing a blood test for you?
I still need to call to get my results. I doubt they will call me with them since I had to fight to get the test.
Take Care,
Heather

Afternoon Heather, How's the morning sickness going, I remember feeling bloated with my daughter, always feeling like you have to go to the washroom but there's nothing there. I don't get to blood test until af is late by 2 days, so even though I have a req. form I don't get to use it. I just keep hopeing for the best and planning for the worst, life is usually somewhere inbetween.
My form is dated for the 7th and I will know myself by the 5th with a hpt so the blood test will give me the numbers and a confirmation, I think it is a way of cutting the costs of the testing since they reduce the amount of people testing till after af is delayed ( which is a good signal that the tadpole is sticking around for a while). Although with the way things usually go I will start spotting on Sunday and af on monday ( saving me the cost of one more hpt). The doc's office said to call them when I go to the lab for the blood work and they will watch for it and call asap with the results.
I guess I should get some lunch made, I have a big technique class tonight and I'm feeling nervous about it ( why ? I don't know....), so I think some practice would be a good idea.
Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

Hey Lynne,
No morning sickness yet. I am guessing it will come.
My biggest issues is feeling bloated.
I left a message for the doc regarding the blood test so hopefully they get back to me. I also plan on a coed softball team and I want to find out if I should continue this.
I do not know why they won't do blood tests earlier. Maybe it is money saving. At least for me, now my insurance pays 100% since I am not longer in the infertility stages.
Well, you are half way to the end of another day. Your practice should get you through another day. I am sure not having your daughter will slow things down.
Take Care,
Heather

Oh my god ( and no I'm not pregnant yet).... I found out tonight that I am accepted to bellydance at the Edmonton exhibition ( what used to be Klondike days) oh my god, I'm all excited and I have no one to call, ( it's too late at night ). I'm never gonna get to sleep and I have a final exam at the YMCA for the fitness training program in the morning. Some one pinch me  watch with my luck now I'll get pregnant . Oh well I'm dancing anyways I would have to be tied down on bed rest or be missing a limb to not take this opportunity and run with it, these events lead to other preformances, teaching positions, etc., imagine getting paid to have fun.
Okay that's enough of that, I'm now almost 10dpiui and counting, I figure everything will happen at the same time just to play with my head so I hope this weekend goes well. I'm gonna watch some TV and try to unwind so that I get some sleep tonight
Baby dreams ( in coin scarves) to us all. Lynne.

Lynne, Congratulation on getting accepted for Belly Dance. It must be exciting.
Good Luck on your fitness exam.
I'm closer to you on waiting game. I'm 7DPIUI. So far, no symptoms except some bloating, occasional cramps and fullness on bladder. I hope we both get Preggo this cycle
I'm thinking abt going for beta next Thursday. I'm on Prog.Supps so AF will come only if I stop it. So I have to test before stopping it. I hope I don't have to stop for next 12 weeks

Congradulations Lynne. That is so exciting. What an honor. This is probably the start of your luck. So, only have to wait until Monday. Do you have an early hpt ready?
Hey wannababy78, sounds like you are getting there too. The symptoms you are having are the same ones that I had before my bfp. Maybe they are a good sign.
Susan, how are you holding up on the clomid? I hate that stuff. I wish they could come up with something that you don't feel so bad on. This is suppose to be a good experience.
Take Care,
Baby Dreamn'
Heather

Hey Ladies, thanks alot for the congrats, it seems that I've gotten more encouragement from you than the girls I regularly dance with ( go figure). I guess that's what happens when you step out of line and do things on your own... Friday morning will be 11dpiui, I had a little bit of spotting this evening but I'm not sure if maybe I scratched myself or with the hot muggy weather and working out that I didn't chafe something I've felt a bit bloated lately and the breasts have decided that they didn't want to be left out either, my body just loves to play with my mind.
My exam went well, took 2 hours to write, and you need an 80% to pass so I'm waiting for the results, they should call next week. The old man is sleeping and I'm not unwound from my dance class tonight so I guess I'll play online for a bit before I head to bed. Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

Morning ladies,
It is a rainy day here in Oregon today but otherwise all things are fine. My allergies have been driving me nuts so I am hoping the rain takes them away a bit. I still don't have any morning sickness only very tired and a little sore breasts.
So, Lynne, any news from this weekend? Today should be 14 dpiui. I am keeping my fingers crossed for good news for you.
Susan, how are you holding up? Are you about at time for your next IUI.
Take Care,
Heather

Hey ladies, nope this one was a washout... the old man and I have talked alot about it and we are going to take a break from the pills and the stress and start trying again in September, so that I can enjoy the summer. Perhaps it was for the best considering all the opportunities that I have this summer and now I might get some of this weight off that I've gained on these treatments. It seems like I feel better already, I feel somewhat back in control of my life. I have a consult appt with the specialist in 2 weeks so I can discuss other fertility treatments which we can pursue in the fall, I know Jeff and I discussed not going to IVF so perhaps there are other drug options we might try, and giving my body a break might just help things too.
So Baby dreams to you all, I'll check in regularly, Heather enjoy this time, it's the most sleep you will get for about the next 5 years. For everyone else keep up the hope,I'll be back too chat more often in the fall when I start again with treatments. Lynne.
