Qotw: To focus on myself. Spiritually, mentally and physically.
@mm29 - March will be here before you know it!
@Thespis7 - Hopefully the cramps are a good sign!
@TRexsMum - Good luck with the (GC) delivery! So close.
@Sassmaster33 - Good luck at your appointment!
AFM: Should be starting my period tomorrow and will start BCP's on CD3.
QOTW: Same as every year, lose some weight. I've slowly gained over the 1 1/2 years with RE. Not his fault! I actually started eating better Saturday. Hopefully it sticks!
I hope everyone has a great week!

Cant find a donor that is healthy and available. Looking at being happy with just the two of us.
@Thespis7 - I'm so sorry you feel like AF is on the horizon. I hate this so much and wish it didn't have to be so hard for any of us.
@TRexsMum - it's getting close!! Here's hoping for a smooth delivery
@Sassmaster33 - good luck with your upcoming appointments!
@refeek1 - best wishes for your new cycle!!

We were so nervous for our 9 week ultrasound today. The past week was rough, finding out that we lost Ninja B, Ninja A being behind with growth, and then having all my symptoms disappear entirely. I thought it was over. Thank goodness this morning's ultrasound proved us wrong. Ninja Squirrel is still measuring behind, but in a week s/he grew a full week's worth. S/he measures at 8w0d (I am 8w6d today) and the heartbeat is very reassuring at 160bpm. The picture on the ultrasound also looks so much different from last week. Thank god. We were freaking out and feel a lot better now. Every single step of the way has been an uphill battle. I'm so exhausted.
QOTW: I don't do New Year's Resolutions. Though I am really looking forward to a clean slate at work.
***PG Mentioned***
Currently 7 weeks and I have my good days and bad days. We have officially graduated from the RE and we have our first ob/gyn appt on Jan 15.
I don't really do New Years resolutions.
QOTW: Do you have a New Years resolution, if so what is it? I really want to organize my home...damn, Pinterest.
My heart is as open as the sky.
Read about it on the blog
2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.
@Thespis 7- Perhaps the cramps are a good thing.
@TRexsMum- Hope the appt goes well and your little TREX is here soon
@RunCC37 - Glad to hear Ninja A is hanging in and has such a great HB.
***PG Mention***
We hit 10 weeks on Christmas day. XMAS eve U/S shows great development. We spent XMAS with our Surrogate and her family. Her son loved his gift from Santa. She is feeling a bit better. Looking forward to hitting the second trimester before feeling like this is really going to stick. Next appointment is on January 16th.
