Infertility

Weekend plans

So I'm not in my Tww or anything but I always love to hear what everyone is up to. And i enjoy the non iui/pregnancy talk as a distraction too. So what are your weekend plans this weekend? Doing anything fun?
I'm home this weekend and we're just working/renovating a room in our house. I hope for That to get done in a few weeks. So much work. I'll also be exercising a lot and going to yoga classes. So how about you?

Re: Weekend plans

  • I am planning on exercising and doing yoga as well! I haven't done yoga in FOREVER but hoping it will help get my mind off things and chill my body out :) I'm also planning on making some cocktails at home and netflixing :) My couch is my best friend after a LONG week of work!!


    Renovating a room sounds fun!! Is it stressful? I've never done it since we are still renting but can't wait for the day we live in a house where we can do that!!

  • @mskeenan oh nice! Yeah I try to do yoga almost every day...if it's a class or just at home even. I do the yoga challenges at doyouyoga.com they're so great because during the work week when I don't have time to go to an hour yoga class I do one of the classes on the site and they're only like 10 minutes long...some are pretty intense though. I highly recommend it. I'm doing the Power Yoga challenge now and the Men's 30 day yoga challenge. lol. hey! girls can still do it. haha  Cocktails sound very nice too. I think I'm actually having a sober weekend this weekend, which is good for me once in a while. :-)
    It's definetly stressful especially since we're doing it all ourselves and by "we" I mean my husband. It sucks because there's not much I can do. So I pass the tools, scrape things, sand etc.  And since he does this for a living he is so tired and doesn't feel like working on our own house. So this causes fights. Don't rush the house buying unless you will be hiring people to do it for you. haha. BUT it IS fun to pick paint colors and decorate once everything is done. :-)
  • I'll be doing some baking and cooking brunch for my husband's birthday weekend. Other than that, I'm gonna binge watch Sylvester Stallone movies cause I LOVE HIM!! lol... like if I wasn't married I would totally STALK him love him. Congrats on making it to your 2WW, hoping the time goes by fast and you get your BFP!

  • @shaylatrice that's so funny about your crush. :-) baking and cooking sounds fun! I'll be doing that as well. I found a bunch of new recipes on pintrest today. Neither of us are in our TWW by the way. I just went in for my baseline appointment and waiting for those results.
  • Thanks for starting this post @Drove2u . I find myself constantly reading posts here and increase my anxiety level.

    My first week of TWW will be finished tomorrow. So in order not to think too much about it, I invited some friends for brunch. I need to get prepared for the brunch, baking cooking etc. and then hopefully we will have good time without any pregnancy/infertility treatment discussions. I also need to work on some of my papers on Sunday. I try to keep myself preoccupied :) 
    I can recommend another website for yoga and exercise, it is Grokker.com . They have all types of yoga , exercise and cooking videos. I really enjoy :)

    @Drove2u I hope you get good results from your baseline , and could go ahead and start your IUI cycle !

    Have a good weekend everyone !
  • Tgif everyone! Tomorrow is my birthday and anniversary....so we are going to do a little bit of everything. Looking forward to spending the day with my husband before ivf stims start early next week.
  • @Piperella happy birthday & anniversary!

    I am disappointed today because started spotting right before I left for my beta, and I decided to do a baseline US as well...pretty sure this is AF and IUI #2 was not a success.  Currently waiting to hear how the bw looks & if I can go right into IUI cycle #3, which is what I want to do.  

    Not gonna lie, I'll be drinking tonight--probably get myself some wine I've been wanting to try, and then do take out and Netflix with DH.  Then tomorrow I might do some holiday shopping, then dinner at a friend's house.  Sunday we're trying again to see The Martian (was sold out last time we tried to go).

  • @Piperella Happy birthday and anniversary.

    I'm going to my 2nd acupuncture appointment Saturday and maybe going out for DH bday dinner Sunday since it's during the week.  I say I want to try Yoga but never have.  Hope everyone has a great weekend :)
  • happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary!! have so much fun!!!
  • I'm making sweet potato black bean quinoa bowls and not sure what I'll be baking yet this weekend. :-)

    I love love love yoga!!! You can make it easy like just stretches or really challenge yourself. I also love that it's not about perfection but progress and I already see so much progress after doing it for a few months.

    What's The Martian? A Movie? or a play? I never heard of it.
  • It's a movie with Matt Damon.  DH read the book and is quite excited to see it, and we have to see it in 3D apparently.  

    Sweet potato black bean quinoa bowls sound delish!

  • @Drove2u GL with the room renovation.  I'm currently finishing my basement and the floors have taken us over 5 months to finish...DIYers lol.  I am contemplating whether I should tackle some more painting in the basement this weekend or if I should grab my leaf blower and pick up the yard since with the way the weather has been it could snow tomorrow and then all of the leaves get stuck under snow for the winter and deteriorate which makes a huge mess for spring clean up.  Which do you think I should do?

    @MsKeenan nice!! PJ kind of weekend...i need one of those!

    @Shaylatrice happy birthday to your Hubby! 

    @ZoeFer Brunch sounds wonderful, especially if you can throw in some Mimosas...count me in (lol j/k).  It reminds me of my wedding day...something that is always forgotten the day of is to eat.  I was lucky enough to have a dear friend who made sure I was well taken care of...she brought a ton of pastries and bagels from Panera, some coffee and a pitcher of freshley squeezed OJ and a bottle of champagne...absolutely perfect :-D I will forever be grateful for her doing that for me.

    @piperella Happy Birthday and Anniversary!

    @Brightenmysky so sorry about potential AF.  BUT...if you can get tickets to see the Martian, it was a great movie!

    @ShayLatrice - It's wayyyyy more fun than regular stuffy Thanksgiving with all the family asking you - SO WHEN WILL BABY "S" BE ON THE WAY??? Or even better - When will there be little "country's" running around?? - my husband's nickname is Country (long story lol).

    Ughhhh.

  • Lol @mskeenan at least you had fun!!! Enjoy it whisk you can. :-) every time I party or drink I think to myself that it could be the last time in a while so enjoy it.
  • I am in the TWW and I just found out my BETA is not until the 18th. I swear it was supposed to be tomorrow...oh well what is two more days I guess. POAS have been negative so far but I am holding out hope!!! I had some serious cramping on Wednesday and I know if I implanted that day hcg would still not be high enough to trigger a home test. Anyway this weekend I have just been trying to keep my mind off of the wait. I recently received news that I will be able to work from home in my current position as an insurance adjuster and I brought home my computer, router and all that jazz on Friday so DH and I spent yesterday setting up my home office. I am soooo excited about starting to work from home Monday. It is going to make flexing time for appointments so much easier!!!! Today I am getting a pedicure and running some errands.
