Fun Question: If you had to choose a book or movie title that fits your life, what would it be?

Quote(s) for the Week:

Updates: Nothing much here...

?: "We Only Cry Over Hot Men: and Other Stories" is the title of the book that my friend and I are writing Smile but, if I had to choose a REAL one... A Series of Unfortunate Events? LOL

TTCAL Updates: Well, now it looks like I (maybe) O'd last week, but based on some good advice from the Crazy Train ladies I think I'm still going to keep my midwife appt. for next week. Maybe she'll give me a provisional provera prescription to use if my next cycle is still wonky and/or set up a plan for testing.

In other fun news, I got a call about 5 minutes ago from my insurance company's "healthy beginnings" program wanting to check in on my 3rd trimester. I guess it had to happen eventually, and I probably should have proactively called them and told them I was out, but for some reason I'd convinced myself that they'd actually shared the relevant documents across the company and knew I had miscarried.

I have to say, I really don't see how much good a pregnancy monitoring program can do anyway if they only talk to you twice in the whole 9 months. Now, I'm delaying leaving work for a few minutes because having to tell the lady on the phone that I miscarried 6 months ago has left me strangely shaky.

Fun Question: If you had to choose a book or movie title that fits your life, what would it be?

Gosh, I have no idea. None. I've been up since 4 because I had to drop dh off at the airport before work and my creative juices are just completely drained. I'll try to think of something and write again later.

Hey Janis- thanks for running the check in. ((HUGS)) to anyone that needs them.

TTCAL Updates: Any new updates to share? Any venting or complaints you want to get off your chest? Share!

TTA- I complained last week about some cramping (most likely cysts) and I am getting an US done in the morning. Even just having the appointment cut my stress down majorly. And get this...ever since I made the appointment I have had almost no cramping. FIGURES!!! Hopefully this will chill me out and I have a list of questions to ask the OB about trying again...and there is a secret hope deep deep down that she will say, "your ute looks great...you don't have to wait until May to TTC anymore." Doubtful but I am still hoping. Otherwise it has been a pretty good week!!!

Fun Question: If you had to choose a book or movie title that fits your life, what would it be?

hmmmm....this is a really really hard one and my brain is too fried to come up with an answer right now!

Hi Janis! Nothing really new here. Leaving on Saturday for a week long cruise with all the ladies from DH's family and my mom. I'm really looking forward to it, but still bummed that I'll be away during my FW. I know its hard to feel too sorry for me, right? I think it's a good thing in the long run. I'm putting away the thermometer and opks this month since I know I'm out anyway. I also have my first therapy appointment tomorrow, so overall I feel good about the direction things are going.

Fun question: Hmmmm, that's tough. I WISH I could say it was something glamorous like Pride and Prejudice, but it's probably more like something written by Chelsea Handler! LOL.

Sorry for the wall of text, I'm mobile. Hugs to everyone who needs them!

I am glad you are still going to see your midwife. DAY 90??? Sheesh hon! I'm glad that you seem to have O'd though. I hope your midwife can do something to help.

UGH, that was terrible - I can't believe you got that call. I've been getting baby magazines, but they are easy enough to ignore. ((hugs)) I would have been shaky too. And how terrible of them for not keep up to date with that!

Where did your YH go?

I'm so glad the cramping has stopped! I'm glad you are still going to get checked out though. FX for you this morning! Keep us updated!!

I'm so jealous of the cruise, Luna!! But I do understand your frustration about the FW - it stinks that it had to fall that way!!! Try to enjoy yourself - I think it is good that you are putting away the thermometer and opks for this month.

I hope your therapy appointment goes well! Many have loved it! Have you met your doctor yet, or will this be the first time?

Hello, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea?? LOL... or Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang?? Too funny!!!

Hi, Janis!
TTCAL: in the middle of the 2WW. It's probably a good thing I'm snowed in otherwise I'd probably start buying things to pee on.
Fun Q: ummm... That's a hard one. Lately, probably Groundhog's Day, unfortunately!

UGH 2ww is crazy! FX for you lady!!! When are you testing?

I love Groundhog's Day but (((hugs))) for being in it!
