I go back next Monday for another round of bloodwork. I am a little stressed about this. I am pretty confident the bloodwork is more to check my Progesterone than anything else - but I kind of want to be done with the anxiety of getting beta results....
I also have an ultra sound lined up for the 14th
Question - if its just ice cream. Mint Chip with Chocolate Sprinkles (jimmies - whatever you want to call them)..... Or if we're talking Sundaes - then Vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, peanut butter sauce, whipped cream and reeces pieces... YUM!

QOTD: Ice cream is one of my all-time favorite foods, so I'm a fan of most flavors. My favorite is probably Chocolate Moose Tracks (chocolate ice cream with chocolate/peanut butter swirls and chocolate-peanut butter cups) or any chocolate ice cream that is overloaded with more chocolate.

Q: What is your favorite ice cream flavor and combo of toppings (make me drool)?
I love chocolate, B&J's Half Baked, mint chip, etc. When it comes to toppings, though, I would rather have plain chocolate or vanilla then load up on cookie dough, brownie bites, peanuts, Reese's cups or some other super fattening thing. You will find no fruit here!
