June Bugs:

@MrsG80inTN 6/4/2014- How did the sorority convention go? And when do you expect to get the results back for your testing?

@Shannon0922 6/8/2014- Looks like you’re gearing up to O. FX for good timing. Are you doing anything differently this time around?

@BackstreetPixie 6/17/2014- We missed you last week. How’s the UC doing this week? And how was the family reunion?

@kittymeowbark 6/21/2014- Did you and YH decide whether you will be taking a break this cycle?

@GLB30 6/26/2014- We missed you the last few weeks- bring us up to speed!

@newfmom7 6/27/2014- I’m sorry your cycle was so wonky last week. How is everything looking this week? Has the OPKs shown any positive results?

@towncargirl 6/27/2014- I’m so sorry about your husband’s cousin. She was so young. I’m glad you’re comforted in the fact that she will be there for your little one until you’re able to meet him/her one day. How are you and YH doing? And how is the 2WW going?

@sunflwra 6/5/2014 loss date- I’m sorry you’re benched but I hope the testing leads to some results. IVF with PGD/PGS is a big step. How do you feel about it? If you end up having to go that road, and you have any questions, I just finished my 3^rd cycle so feel free to PM me.

If your name is missing from above, please let me know and post an update. Some are not included as we have not heard from you in many weeks.

Hey all!  Family Reunion was great. Also got to visit my BFF and her hubby who came to see me.  UC is behaving which means.... Starting July 1... which depending when you read this could be now or in a few hours... lol.. I am cleared to TTC again! WOOOOOO.    Finally! 

QOTW: I never give money to beggars because 1. They could be faking it. 2. I don't know what they are really going to use it for. Food? Drugs?  HOWEVER I HAVE been known to give them food if I have some with me. I much rather do that then wonder if I'm feeding an addiction or giving someone money who is only pretending to be in need. 

Also we made it through June. Whew. It was tough.. but We are all gonna be okay. ::hugs to all::

jbasore1123  --- Thanks for the check-in. How are you doing?

H and I decided to take a break this cycle. I am a little bummed about it, but know it is for the best. So keeping FX that August is our month.



QOTW: When you see a homeless person begging on the street, do you stop and give them money?
I usually try to offer food or water, not money. You would be surprised how many turn down the free meal and say "no, I want money" ---yeah, welcome to the club. I would like free money as well. 8-|

Thank you for your thoughts. We are hanging in there, the funeral is thursday. The 2ww is going so slowly!! Af is due on 7/7 and I have no signs of being pregnant or her showing up. I think we are going to take a break now and focus on getting out of our apartment and maybe look into foster care.

QOTW - I live in a very rural area so its very rare to see anyone that is homeless.

HI Friends.  The convention went well... It was filled with long days and little sleep, but good conversations and good friends.  I'm glad I went.  

My OB has called me along the way with results... not all are in, but basically everything that is in is normal... They did say I'm heterozygous, but don't have MTHFR so I'm not sure what that all means.  RE appt is today at 130 and DH is already pissed because the doc ordered a new SA (his was in 2013) and DH doesn't do well with ordering tests when docs haven't actually seen us.  UGH.  So, w'll see how it goes.  

I will do my best to check-in later, but since I'm leaving early I need to go get some work in.

@BackstreetPixie- I'm so glad everything went well. And woohoo!!!! Burn that bench lady!

@kittymeowbark- Enjoy this cycle off the best you can. Drink it up at your FIL's bar . August will be here before you know it.

@towncargirl- (((hugs))). Sending you both lots of strength for Thursday. My fingers are still crossed for you for this cycle.

@MrsG80inTN- FX for today's appointment. Tell YH to suck it up, lol. And I'm glad things are looking normal so far.

towncargirl

Well... Af came 4 days early with no warning during the funeral. (

kittymeowbark

lots and lots and lots of hugs to you @towncargirl

@jbasore1123 - thanks for the check-in- I must have missed this earlier in the week, it's been a crazy first week back to work!

About the IVF with PGD - I definitely have mixed feelings on it.  I always thought of IVF as something for women who had difficulty getting pregnant and that wasn't me, so it wasn't even on my radar before. We don't have our karyotyping results yet, so not even sure it's a road we'll have to go down but if we do have an abnormality, I feel pretty strongly that we'd do it. From what I've read, with that diagnosis it would basically be a crapshoot on whether or not we could go full term with another baby on our own (2 losses out of 3 pregnancies are not odds I like) and I just don't know that I could take that risk knowingly.  I feel 100% that we aren't ready to give up though, so if that's what it takes to have a better chance of having a baby, we'll do it.  I'm hoping we'll get our results sometime next week, so I guess we'll see.  As scary as it would be, there's something to be said for having answers though.

QOTW: Unfortunately, we have a lot of people begging on our streets here, to the point that it seems like the chosen vocation for some.  I'm like others in that I'd give them a bottle of water or some food but not money.

@towncargirl  - My heart goes out to you and your family

@jbasore1123 - Thanks for the check in and sorry it has taken me so long to respond (we have been out of town for the past week). I actually O'd on CD12/13 this cycle instead of CD15/16 which is quite early for me. The day that my OPK tested positive though I found a four leaf clover - so I hope it was my lucky charm for this cycle!

@BackstreetPixie - So excited to hear that your are burning the bench!  I hope July is a special month for you
