Eh, nothing. We're not really Valentine's day people. I told him that I'd love a box of cheap chocolate, though. I'll either be getting a BFP around that time or my period, so the chocolate would be great for the PMS.
We're going cheap this year since we're saving for a baby! I'll probably make chocolate covered strawberries and we'll make a nice dinner! Every year we do less because we always buy each other little gifts like candy, etc.
probably a card and a little stuffed toy that the cat can play with after the "aww" moment. Too bad they don't sell cadbury cream eggs at valentines, those are his fave.
I've tried to convince DH that Valentine's Day is a girl holiday (men should give women presents), but no dice. He is getting a case for his autographed hockey puck and a new hat.
DH (32): SA is ok, slightly low morph, normal SCSA Me (32): Slightly low progesterone, hostile CM, carrier for CF, Moderately high NKC, High TNFa, heterozyogous mutated Factor XIII, and +APA
October 2012-May 2014: 4 failed IUIs, 3 failed IVFs, and 1 failed FETw/donor embryos
November 2014: IVF w/ICSI #4 Agonist/Antagonist with EPP and Prednisone, Baby Aspirin, Lovenox, and IVIG for immune issues. Converted to freeze all due to lining issues. 2 blasts frozen on day 6!
January 2015: FET #2 Cancelled due to lining issues
We're generally pretty low-key about valentines (aided by the fact that DH is always out of town for the weekend closest to the actual holiday for an annual pond hockey tournament...) so we're just getting each other cards this year. Luckily Chicago's restaurant week starts the weekend *after* valentine's day, so we'll get a whole bunch of extra date nights in for that, and we'll probably pretend like we're doing it to be romantic for valentine's day. But, really, we're doing it for the prix fixe restaurant week menus.

Normally, we dont exchange anything aside from cards/candy/thenorm but we both really need new running shoes so thats what we'll be getting each other.
We really aren't valentine's day people or gift people, so this year we're just going to stay in and cook a nice supper together. We're also going to get each other a card and make each other a mix CD of songs that remind us of the other.

Off topic, I know, but your dog is sooo cute! Is it in the Sheppard family? Kind of looks like a Sheltie almost...
Back on topic, DH is getting a card, Ester Price chocolates (his fave), and a nice dinner cooked by yours truly. I've been dropping hints for him to have flowers delivered to my office, but I doubt that will happen - he's not a flowers kind of guy.

You can get them on Amazon... not cheap, but available!
As for me and my man, we'll be going out to dinner on the weekend, and I got him a card and a sexy present that I will likely help him enjoy that night.
We don't celebrate Valentine's Day, but we'll be in Hawaii this year, so I guess that is his gift. We are staying in an amazing house, so we will probably end up making dinner and eating outside watching the sunset. Sounds perfectly relaxing.
ETA: My Valentine's present will either be a BFP or AF. Obviously I'm hoping for the BFP, but if AF decides to show, at least I can have some champagne....or a Mai Tai or two.

DH and I don't do much for V-day, but we'll be leaving for Florida for a long weekend next Thursday, so I'm sure we'll do dinner out later in the week. And I'll be Oing next week, so you know what that means!
My Chart
TTC since June 2011. BFP#1 5/9/12 EDD 1/19/13 MMC @ 9w3d D&E 6/25/12. Met with RE 12/2012 - Dx PCOS. 1/2013 Clomid 100mg + HCG trigger + TI = BFP#2!! Due 10/22/13! FX this little bean sticks!

Steaks and sex. I'm pretty sure that's all he wants, too.
(And, here's hoping, lots of sex. If I ov the same time as last month, it will be right on VDay--not like I'm telling him that, but at least I think I might get lucky!)
We're headed to Minneapolis for the weekend, DS is coming so it won't be a romantic getaway but a fun family one nonetheless! We also usually just exchange cards.

You should give him the someecard, "Don't forget that BJ's are like flowers for men."
I'm still getting ribbed for failing at Valentine's day last year when we said no gifts but then he got me a gift and I didn't. To make up for it he will receive:
1. Wedding album (7 years overdue, but better late than never)
2. Tennis classes

Probably this. Too many holidays in a row for buying gifts...
Unfortunately for DH, Valentine's Day is my birthday so that kinda trumps V-Day :-)
I usually get him something small that he doesn't necessarily need but more so just for fun, plus what OP said.
Nice! lol

He is getting Atlas Shrugged Part 1 on Blue Ray... and some "business time", of course!
We aren't big on Valentine's Day but we always exchange cards.
IUI #1=BFN
IUI #2=BFP! Beta#1:87 Beta #2:1050
~It's a GIRL!~
"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."
A card and me! That should be good enough, right!? Oh, and I'm making a red wine chocolate cake for us.
