Why did I just lay around yesterday during both of the baby's 2 hour naps? Now I have to make up for it today with laundry, vacuuming, moping, and other random crap that H won't do while I'm working this weekend. Oh well it felt really good. I rarely do it.
Ps. F you Michigan weather. I'm over the effing frigid cold weather. We are one day away from March for God's sake gimme a 30* day already.
TTC for 1.5 years with a crappy RE. 12 cycles with clomid (11 too many)
1. Eff you low rising E2 levels that had me stressed and a craptastic Mom all week. And also, thank you for finally rising.
2. Eff you hand foot mouth disease. Poor DD1's mouth looks horrific and I feel so awful for her. (I also am at my wits end with the whining noise. I know it's legit, but nails on a chalkboard fo realz)
3. Daisies. Because I should mention something nice.
Two DDs 10/08 and 08/10, no primary IF
TTC #3 since 10/2011 - dx unexplained/weak ovulation
3 BFN clomid + TI cycles, 5 BFN clomid/gonal f IUIs, 1 mmc IUI
2/19/2014 IVF #1 Unexpected low E2 (oversuppressed) -> increased to max doses = 3 or 4 follicles, converting to IUI
BFFP Saw 1 beautiful heartbeat at 6w6d, follow up u/s at 9w showed mmc. Eff this.
NTNP 5/2014-9/2014, OPKs and TI 10/2014 - 1/2015.
RPL testing all normal, AFC, AMH, and FSH all normal.
Why did I borrow the Frozen soundtrack from my friend? It is all my daughter wants to listen to and my eye has begun twitching at the sound of "Let it Go!"

BFP #1 12.24.07 - DD born @ 39w1d on 08.26.08 BFP #2 08.04.11 - DD born still @ 37w3d on 03.25.12
DD- stupid break cycle. My regular 27-29 day cycle got messed up on the break month. WTF? Started spotting at day 22 and expecting that to pick up any minute now. I feel cheated because I should be relaxing and now I don't know why my cycle shortened up by at least 4 days this month. Lame.
Ps. F you Michigan weather. I'm over the effing frigid cold weather. We are one day away from March for God's sake gimme a 30* day already.
Right there with you over here in Minnesota! 20 degrees is an effing heat wave [-(
Same here is Iowa. No more snow! No more cold weather! I'll even take in the 20* range. Seriously! The kids are going nuts being stuck inside constantly.
DD conceived after 3 years of ttc.
MFI - DH had varicocele repair and took Clomid to get DD b. 02/2010
TTC #2 since 6/2010 10/2012 DH diagnosed with Epilepsy A few failed IUIs summer 2012 and 2013. DH taking clomid and waiting to see if he needs another vericocele repair. Hoping for a 2015 baby or babies. Wishing, hoping, waiting.
I'm having a bad Friday. Realized our insurance was costing almost $900 per month for our premium. I had up our deductible to make it more affordable. In the process I found out that the small amount of IF coverage we have will be gone in a year. So if we need to do another IUI or IVF, we need to get to it before the year ends. Really makes me annoyed that DH delayed on taking his meds and instead of us knowing if surgery for him was an option in January, we have to wait until the end of March...I was doing okay with the waiting, but this just adds more pressure to trying to get things moving along soon.
Plus, as I was on my way to church to practice with my handbell group (with DD) my front tire blew out. So now we need new tires. Great, there goes being able to pay bills on time. We are replacing the front two and will need to do the back two after we get our tax return. Arg! To add to that I have to go and see my friend's new baby, who she of course conceived sooner than she planned to....I hate her! She also told most of our other close friends except for me and another friend, who found out by accident at her other child's 1st birthday. Double Arg!!!

Ugh. Every kid and parent I know is all about that soundtrack. We are avoiding it so far. But the songs are good.
DD,
I know California's in a drought and all. And I appreciate the rain. But, seriously, I did NOT need for my fence to blow down. A new fence was not on my list of shopping items for the weekend.
We took DH's car into the shop this morning because it was acting funny. It needs a whole new engine. DH is X( . I can't blame him. He is going to sell the car for parts. Just like everything else another wrench, but we just got to pick up and move on, make the best of everything and find the silver lining.
I'm about 99.99% sure AF is FINALLY on her merry way. {{{tmi alert}}} I'm having BROWN spotting, cramps, a headache, and I feel like I'm going to hurl :-& (which is not unusual for my AFs - lucky me, it runs in the women in my family) and it just occurred to me that my last real period was in Sept! due to this cluster fuck of losses.
Thank god I hoarded pain medicine from my surgery.

DDF- Saturday- Why can't the schools be called closed right now? Then I wouldn't have to stress until the call it. And for my county we are always the last ones. Seriously- or not closed at all- how can every school system be open for a fifty mile radius and we are the dumb ass donut hole still open ice everywhere and accidents abound. As the to one more reason this is my last week working there.

We can't wait to meet you! Conception: Potato Love!
My ex husband is a complete and total douche bag and the attorney I hire to divorce him and settle our assets is a douche too even years later! I think they should get married!
I am holding out such false hope that we will get a BFP this month even though I know it's not going to happen and I promised not to get my hopes up!
We got a "new to us" couch and recliner. Both used for less then 6 months and we hit the jackpot. Basically we found an older single guy who bought furniture for his new home and then his girlfriend decided she wanted to redecorated in a different color. Score for us!!!!
