Re: ***TTC check-in***
Hey, can you take me off the list, please? Thanks!
Good luck to everyone!
Done. Sorry about that and congrats again!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone
QOTW: I am SO thankful that I have a great job and an awesome husband and so much love going around our extended family and that I was able to say goodbye to my grandfather before he passed and that we're going to have so much food on the table for dinner tomorrow and that we are financially able to do things like pay for my therapy and acupuncture and that this board exists and that all of you ladies are so supportive of me and of each other and that I have two adorable puppies that make all my troubles melt away and for so many other things that I tend to forget on a daily basis when I'm down.
Update: see my ovulation bleeding post below. My cycle is perfect this go-around... I think it's the acupuncture finally kicking in. Probably O'ing right this minute. I just hope DH and I can get our act together tonight and hopefully also tomorrow to make up for yesterday and this morning or I'm going to be a mess for the next 2-4 weeks at least. I realized this morning in the shower that if it doesn't happen this cycle, I won't be pregnant by Christmas. And that breaks my heart... remembering what last Christmas was like... telling DH, telling my parents, telling the extended family, being so happy... That was the last time I was really happy and that makes me even more depressed just thinking about that.
I've got my annual GYN appt next week so hopefully will discuss next steps with my dr. then.
BFP 12.20.2010 :: missed m/c 1/2011 around 8 weeks
BFP @ 9dpo 5.24.2011 :: missed m/c 6/2011 around 7 weeks
positive for ANAs (1:40) with a speckled pattern
MTHFR c677t mutation (heterozygous)
*folic acid, baby asprin, Prometrium, acupuncture, Lovenox*
BFP @ 9dpo 2.1.2012 || HCG = 8 : Progesterone = 19.2
2nd HCG @ 11dpo = 40 || 3rd HCG @ 21dpo = over 5000!
Stick, little one, stick! EDD October 15, 2012
UPDATE: I started on Monday, which I am really bummed about. I also do not have a chance on being pregnant for Christmas and had such high hopes of being able to tell everyone then. I have my annual appointment in 2 weeks so I'll be asking about my very irregular cycles and all that fun stuff.
QOTW: I am thankful that I have a job and that the hubs got a promotion this year. And I am thankful that he will get to have Christmas off this year, and our new puppy!
Update: I'm 11 dpo and got a BFN this morning. Bummer. I will continue to test until I get AF, but I've been feeling like she's coming for the last day or two. On to cycle 5 for us, I think.
QOTW: I'm thankful for my DH, family, and friends. And the dogs, of course.
Thanks also to this supportive community!
Update: I took some meds to stop/ restart my period so that's where I'm at. Hopefully my period stops on its own this time. If it goes longer than a week I have to go in for another US.
QOTW: I'm thankful for my family. I'm also thankful for my miracle drugs that keep AF in check.
QOTW: I'm obviously thankful for my DH he's been my rock... seriously. I could not survive without him (no god this is not asking you to test me again kthanks). I'm also thankful for my fantastic family and friends who have stepped it up. I'm thankful for being Lilly's mommy because she has shown me all the beauty in the world. I'm thankful we have good jobs that we are passionate about and allow us to live the lifestyle we do. I'm thankful for all of my doctors who make me have hope and the fact that we have enough money to pay said doctors. I'm thankful I'm mostly healthy, no big problems, and I came through my birth experience without any scarring (again god not asking for big health problems). And I'm thankful for my nesties who have prayed for us, dusted us, and helped make us feel whole. Sorry this turned into a novel.. oops.
QOTW: Not much new to update just waiting on the lovely first post partum aunt flo. I hear she is a really big ***... great. But in my forced waiting I am happily imbibing in holiday cocktails!!
