Back from my cruise

Hello Ladies,

    I got back from my cruise on Sunday. For those of you that read my last post, I was worried about how much to enjoy myself (ie drinking and hot tubs) on my cruise. I was in the middle of my 2WW at the time and wasn't sure if I should indulge in any of those things. I didn't have to suffer long. AF showed on April 1st. (Some April Fools, huh?) I was kind of releived though. It gave me the green light to drink like a fish and soak in the hot tubs as much as I wanted. We had a great time.

   I was so happy to get back and see all the BFP's that were happening while I was away. Congratulations to all of you. Send some of that baby dust this way.

  Here is a bit of an update of where I am:

 Before we left on vacation, my RE wanted me to go in on CD2 to check my ovaries so I can start on Femara for CD3. Unfortunately, we were in the middle of the Carribean on CD2 and 3. So, this cycle is going to have to be a drug-free cycle. We're going to have to wait for next cycle to start with that. I feel like we're losing a month, but I'm kind of glad that we have a bit of a break from all the TTC stress. I mean, I will still use the OPK's and BD when the time comes but I'm not going to stress over it. I also feel like it is getting to be expensive already, and I haven't even gotten close to starting any kinds of treatments, like injections, IUI or IVF. (Hopefully I will get a BFP before I get there...a girl can dream right??) I found out at my last appointment that my insurance company isn't paying for the ultrasounds anymore. I have to pay $100 for each one and sometimes my RE wants me going in every day to see how the follies grow. I know it's probably just a drop in the bucket compared to what may come, but it can be overwhelming sometimes.

    Here's hoping there are a lot more BFP's this month.

Glad to hear that you had a good time on your cruise! 

Paying for treatments sucks.  It just sucks. 

Heres hoping for a BFP for you this month.

Welcome back!  Sorry about AF showing up, but glad you had a good time on your cruise.  Good luck this cycle even though you won't be getting help.  Maybe it will still work out though

Welcome back!  I'm sorry AF showed, but I'm glad she showed up in time for you to have fun.

 It sucks that you can't "have help" this cycle, but I hope you get a BFP and don't have to pay for an ultrasound until it is for your baby!!!!

That's a lot OOP for the ultrasounds.  I hope your BFP comes this month and I'm glad you had fun on the cruise!

I'm glad to hear you had fun on your cruise, that's what it's for, but I'm sorry AF found you there.  It would be awesome if you get your BFP on your non-medicated cycle.  I'll be thinking good thoughts for you.

Ditto this...and GL this cycle!

Welcome back!

It sounds like you  had a great time, despite The Evil One's arrival.

I, too, hope you get your BFP this month. But either way, I think your idea of giving yourself a bit of a break is a good one. This stuff is so stressful!

We are OOP, too. As Mrs. K put it: IT SUCKS!
