Sorry that I haven't been posting, but I got sad news about my embies and haven't been in a good place. The remaing three that survived didn't turn into blastocysts. The doctor froze them and wants to talk about them in three weeks, so quite annoyed to why he even did that and the appt., time. Ugh....I know life isn't fair, just haven't been able to be as positive as I would like to be and hard to post and respond in a positive light...Just didn't want to dump my sad news on anyone.
Thanks so much for thinking of me.
How are you doing? I hope that you and your husband are doing better? Is he going to move to Arizona soon or has he? I have been thinking of you, too.
Are you getting ready for a new cycle soon or is that still on hold? Well, know I wish you the best!
Aww man! Im so sorry to hear that! My heart hurts for you :
We have to put ttc on hold right now....Im way overweight and need to drop 40 lbs . During my grieving period last year I put on 20 lbs which is not good or healthy for me.
My DH has not moved out here yet....I am going to ask for a transfer back to Ca at the end of the year. I miss my dogs and my house.
All is good though. So what is your next step?

I've been wondering about you as well. I'm sorry you didn't receive good news. I hope you'll come back around more when you're up for it. However, please remember that you don't have to always be positive to post! This is the place that we're all allowed to share our fears and frustrations. Take care.

I hope that your diet plan goes smoothly and quickly. I know that I need to lose a few myself. Will you do this on your own or go through a program? I can understand the grieving process and the comfort of food....ugh! I have heard from a couple of family members and friends that weight watcher is great and somewhat easy to follow, once you get the system down, the weight follows.
I can understand wanting to be with your family, pets and community. I am glad to hear that you will ask your work for the transfer. I am sure it will be great to be back home. Glad that all is going well in your world and keep me posted on when you will start your program. Maybe, we can do the weight loss together. I, probably need to lose about 20-30lbs. It might make it easier for the both of us to help eachother.
My next step is my doctor appt., on the 7th of May. I am sure he is going to tell us that the morulas suck and that I, most likely won't get pregnant, if I transfer them and that they won't do or can do the PGS testing, so....I will roll my eyes and get really pisses and then, really sad and cry my eyes out and have to decide, if we are going to take the bungie jump off with an untested 43 year old morula.......deep breath. Anyways....we will get through it.
Thanks again for checking up on me and best wishes to you......
I really appreciate your sweet thoughts. I just since I feel so sensitive, I am not sure how others will react to my written words. I mean, I have lurked on our board and read some of the newer member's post and just don't have any nice, supportive responses to add, so I haven't and since, I have surprised myself with some of my reactions, I just thought I probably shouldn't post anything either, just encase someone that I don't know too well writes something that strikes me the wrong way....so, I was just trying to keep it safe.
As, I wrote to Calibride....about my upcoming dr. appt., I think after that wears off a touch, I will be in a better spot, I hope.....
How are you doing? I hope that life is treating you well. Are you getting ready for any cycles or anything coming up for you? Well, keep me posted and thanks again for thinking of me and being so sweet. It means a lot to me....
I am doing the weight loss thing on my own....and have been to enough programs to know what Im doing right about now! lol I just need to get off my butt and utilize my knowledge.
Yes, I would love to be your weight loss partner! Right now, I am getting up every morning and walking a mile. Then I come home and do situps, squats and pushups. I started this daily challenge:
Day one - start with 20 situps, 50 squats, 10 pushups...every day you just add on 5 more of each exercise. Next Monday, I will start Zumba classes. During the day, I just eat decently and moderately.
So, that's it....my new routine

Your program sounds good. I am sure the Zumba classes will be fun. Now, I guess it is my turn to get off my butt and start participating.... I will let you know, how the first week goes. Haven't been too motivated lately, but maybe, this will get it off my mind for now.....
Good luck with your weight loss ladies! I run a lot, but could mix in some cross training for sure. My problem is with food. I LOVE sweets and snacks. So I've been using my iphone app Lose It to track my calories. I plan to do this for a month or so to get off the 5+ pounds I've put on in recent months. If I restrict my diet too long I get really cranky, so I just want to get back to my usual overweight status for now.
@Jackie - I have an HSG tomorrow and then an appointment with a perinatologist the following week. I don't even know the reason for meeting with the pernatologist honestly - my OB/GYN referred me. Hopefully after learning the results of the HSG & that appt, we'll be back to TTC. Our plan for now is to TTC naturally one more time and then move on to IVF with PGS or Donor eggs. We're still waiting to learn about getting me on my husband's benefits, which will factor into that decision. Good luck with your upcoming appt!

Best of luck with your HSG tomorrow and your appt., with the Perinatologist. Hope that all goes well and that you get a BFP on your next cycle, so you don't have to worry about the IVF stuff.....
My husband and I talked last night and are going to continue TTC naturally, not givng up yet. I hope I might have a bit of time left.....
Let me know your update when you get the results back. You will be in my thoughts and prayers..... Best wishes!

HSG went well - just a second or two of cramping and she shared the results on the spot, which was nice. Everything looked great. So... back to TTC!
