Hoping for some calm after the storm.

vanessa lynne · April 2012

First off I want to thank all of you for praying and helping me through this past couple weeks. It's been a rough one! The funeral for my friend's Mom was yesterday. On Thursday she called me and said she had found her Mom's final wishes in her bible. And in them, she had asked that I sing Amazing Grace at her Funeral. It was tough..but surprisingly I got through it without crying. I feel like I have this hard shell around me now after Aidan left. I set up the whole funeral and was in charge of all the food for the gathering afterwards..I needed to keep myself busy. I think that probably helped so I wouldn't break down.

My Mom is doing well and I am in the process of planning her 50th Surprise Party for Sunday.

My nephew is fantastic..He spent the day with me on Friday(day after he left hospital) and was awesome!

Today is the 19th anniversary of my Nana passing..I can't believe how long it's been!

So now.....I am keeping my self busy while in my 2ww after IUI with ..... Planning an 8 yrd old "Wonderland" Birthday Party for Saturday and My Mom's for Sunday. So much to do!!! I hope everyone had a peaceful and Happy Easter!!! ((HUGS)) to all of you!!

And you need one of these:

Terrific news! I'll say it again: wishing you a completely boring, uneventful rest of the year! You could use the calm

You've endured a lot lately. I hope that some of these upcoming activities can be fun for you and a stress release. It's always good to have some things to take your mind off things and full your time after going through some hard events.

You have had to deal with a lot lately - but have remained so strong throughout all of it. Hoepfully you can take this time during your 2ww to relax, focus on yourself and keep your mind busy while doing some planning!!

I'm so glad that things are improving. Wonderful that your mom is doing better and will be celebrating with a surprise 50th bday party. Also so glad to hear your nephew is out of the hospital and doing well. What a huge compliment and an honor to be asked to sing at your friends mom's funeral. I don't know how you got through it without crying but good job!

I'm in the 2ww after my IUI too. When do you test? How are you feeling about it? I'm trying not to make myself crazy but it's SO hard.

(((big hugs))) to you

The doctor wanted me to come in this Friday for b/w. I didn't schedule it though. 1. because I'd rather not find out at the fertility clinic. 2. It's Friday the 13th Indifferent

I would rather wait and see if AF shows or not..then test at home. I might actually test on Friday if I can't wait 'til Saturday. I was feeling pretty positive and hopeful about it..but now just getting nervous. I normally have a 12 day LP. My IUI was natural with no meds, injections or monitoring. I just went in the day after my +OPK. Good luck..when are you testing?

I'm so glad things are looking up, and hope the rest of 2ww flies by for you.

Totally didn't realize it was Friday the 13th. I don't blame you for not wanting to go in that day. I am crossing everything for you that this works and you get a BFP when you test.

I'm going between being positive and being completely freaked out. I go in for bw one week from today. Part of me wishes it would hurry up and get here and then the other part of me is terrified to find out. I'm not sure how they handle giving the results since they obviously won't be able to tell me right away. I just hope DH is able to be with me because if it didn't work I will be so heartbroken and I know I won't be able to stop the tears.

I'll be thinking about you this weekend.
