Hello there

Morning ladies! A little birdie (::waves to e-BFF Lyse::) told me that this is where the cool kids hang and that I should check it out. So here I am. I've also heard that there are fellow OCers that post here. Hey neighbors!
I don't really consider myself to be snarky, but I've definitely been around the TTC block. 2 1/2 years, a few clomid/IUI cycles and a lap coming up at the end of this month. I keep myself distracted by running and drinking wine. Just not at the same time. Although it IS my dream to open a gym with a bar in it:)
Anyway, hope you guys don't mind me posting here. I told Lyse she better have my back if I get laughed off this board!This discussion has been closed.
Re: Hello there
YAY!!! Welcome darling, I told you, they will love you.
Ging and I have been e-besties since like TTGP and she is just an absolute doll. Don't let her fool you though she can be a tad snarky if the right person comes along, so I have a feeling she'll fit in here perfectly!
I am... alllll day with not much to do. I seriously might work on my ty notes.
The babe is good, he's just hanging out and moving and squirming like normal. Him and I had a talk about staying inside and not pulling any funny business while his daddy is out of town and I got a response. Whether it was a "that's what you think" kick or an agreeable kick, that remains to be seen
I'm sorry you're feeling crampy, do you have your lap date set?
Lyse, I hopethat was an agreeable kick! That's cute:)
Lap is scheduled for Thursday the 25th, but it has to be done between days 5 and 9. So I really hope AF doesn't show too early.
So not before what day? I want to send my "come at the perfect time" vibes to you.

Thank you! Aren't pugs sweet? She's my baby girl:)
I love them too. They crack me up when they snore. I don't know how my brother sleeps in the same room with them.

first of all I spph gingham (in fact I am on the look-out for pastel yellow or pink gingham sheets for #1 right now)
second of all - SUPER CUTE doggy in the sig!
thirdly - I was a multiple IUI failure, until the 2nd month after my lap! Good luck to you! (I did 3 IUIs, a lap, 1 IUI after = BFN, then 2nd IUI after lap = BFP)
A gym with the bar sounds fab! Could I have a membership to just the bar please?
Where in OC are you? (if you already answered, forgive me - I'm posting this before reading any other responses)
oh, and welcome!

Thanks! That gives me hope about your lap/IUI. I hope I have the same luck, if you can call it that.
I'm from the Lake Forest area. What about you?
And yes, you may absolutely have a membership to my gym! Really, does that not sound like the best idea ever?
