Re: TTC Again Check-in

  • update:  BFN.  I really had my hopes up since its hard to really say which CD I'm on..and that I managed to O on my own...and depending which day I started counting from, it could have been either CD 15 or 20...but...I started bleeding yesterday.  lightly.  which after bleeding for half of my pregnancy last time, still make me not feel like I was out of the game.  But it picked up more this morning.  Kind of a rude awakening....I was really feeling hopeful!  boo.

    QOTD:  In past years I've brought meatball puffs, texas caviar, buffalo chicken dip, baked/breaded ravioli, candied kielbasa, sausage and cheese stuffed jalapenos...  I've been looking at this chocolate chip cookie dough dip that is actually made from chickpeas...DH has cleverly dubbed it "Chummus"... yuck. :)  I'm really bored with all my old options...I'm hoping that you guys have some great ideas! :)

      woohoo!!   good luck!!! :)
  • Update:  I'm pretty sure I O'ed this weekend (holy overy pain!).  Even though we're on a med/IUI break this month we're still trying.  Fingers crossed...

    QOTD:  Sometimes the usual cheese, crackers and meat tray.  I have a great spinach and artichoke dip recipe that I've made.  My pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting are also a hit.

  • Update: BFP. I have been really quiet about it. I feel bad posting because I can't Bump at work, and I haven't been able to post or be support for anyone in a while. My beta on Friday (9dp5dt) was 187 and the second beta was drawn this morning, waiting on results.

    And I can't remember the QOTD.... stupid Mommy brain!

    3 yrs ttc, 3ivfs, 4 iuis and finally a baby boy! And then a girl to follow. 2 under 2!

      wow!!  congratulations!!!!!  you don't need to be shy about it!!  You are a well known face here!  YAY!  (lots of good thoughts to you for a great number today!)
  • Update: Today is 9dpiui.  I am planning to test on Wednesday...I don't usually test that early, but Thursday and Friday I have early meetings so it would be much harder if I needed to go in for a beta (trying to think positively!).

    QOTD: I'm not much help.  The only party I really cook for is my family and they always want me to bring meatballs, so that is what I do.  For friends' parties DH usually does the cooking and he makes all manner of weird (usually good) stuff.

  • Still in the 2WW.  I will probably test on Friday.  I'm scared!

    QOTD:  I always bring my staple Crock-Pot Cheesy Potatoes.  In fact, I just brought them to our work potluck today :)

  • Updat: Cd 2 today...ultrasound and bloodwork tomorrow. I'm excited because my RE decided to change the protocol. No more 5 days of clomid.....going right to injectables instead of starting them on CD 8. I"m hopinh I will have 2 or 3 targets and IUI that falls before CD 28.

    QOTD:I usually do a dessert. You buy square pretzels bites and add a hershy kiss on top. It melts a little, stick it in the fridge to cool, and serve. Its the perfect blend of sweet and salty.

  • Update: I have another u/s tomorrow, so I'll know more then. U/S last week revealed a blob that could be something (gestational sac) or nothing, tbd. :)

    QOTD: It is so rare that I go to a party where I'm expected to provide something, I fear I'm not very good at ideas. Hmm, when I don't bake, I often do cocktail weinies in a crockpot with grape jelly and Heinz Chili Sauce. Sounds insane. Tastes amazing. And super easy! ;) But usually I bake...
