3 little embies

CityPixieCityPixie
in TTC after 35
all three were transferred.  and even the little guy is catching up: 2 8's and 1 that is up to 7.  Now I'm going to eat all the sticky foods I can think of to try and give them the hint...peanut butter comes to mind.  What else?  Grow embies, grow.  This will be a tough 2 weeks.   May 8 is the test day.  That's for. ev. er!  -Pix

    I didn't even realize it would be Mother's Day.  Wow!  As for the Princess thing, well DH is scoring very low.  I'm miffed at him right now b/c I was expecting to be treated like royalty and nuthin'.  On the couch in front of the TV like nothing happened.  Maybe he doesn't want us to get our hopes up but mostly I'm so very annoyed.  Better get back to my meditation...

     He's doing better. I guess I can give him an off day.  I hope to have a full nine months of pampering, afterall.
