Lynn - sorry about the lowish progesterone. Tell me what's the plan LYnn? Is it metformin and clomid together??? I am so glad you are feeling like you are in good hands with the FS. We are all gonna graduate from here soon. Keep the FAITH!
Mel - Zucchini slice sounds really good! I hope your day was better than yesterday...
Well, I have had a frustrating day. The fish tank sprung a leak - can you believe it! Googly the fish died and I have to drive to the coast to get a replacement. There is always a silver lining though and the pet shop will replace the fish tank with the next size up as they have been very slack in getting a replacement lamp for the tank in. So on Thursday we will head down and get a replacement "Googly" and tank!
The fence man came eventually and has finally found some old railway sleepers to do our front fence. YIPPPEEEEE!!!!!!!
It is raining and cool here and the kids and I are gonna have scrambled eggs on toast for dinner tonight.
Take care everyone and I will "see" you tomorrow...
Spring - I am thinking of you and your DH today on Harrison's 5 month birthday. How are you doing? How is Lil' Spring behaving today?
Mel - I am sorry you are feeling a little down and forgotten. I am sure that it is just that
people don't think about the dates. No one said anything to me really either, but I think it is the same old thing where they just think they don't want to upset you (like it can get any more upsetting right?) But I know what you mean, it sort of comes back to that feeling that life has gone on for everyone else, and we are just stuck here, standing still. Like Lynn has said, there is no way that anyone can understand what we have been through unless they too have had to go through it. I hope you are feeling better, I think that it is a huge milestone the 6 months. Now, what is Zucchini slice?? Sounds yummy!
Lynn - Glad to hear that you are having a better day. I am not really sure what all of your medical stuff means, but I am sorry that it wasn't all great news. At least, like you said the other week, your Ob has a plan. I hope AF comes soon for you so you can have a fresh start this month.
Michelle - I have never really thought about what you have said about from here the pregnancy is all new to you. That is such a milestone for you. I hope you find the rest of the pregnancy boring and uneventful until the day you get to meet your little one. Congratulations!
Flowerchild - I am glad to hear that your bleeding has stopped. How are you feeling now?
Hello to everyone else. Hope you are all well.
I am feeling a little better today too. I had a bit of a meltdown last night, but I think that I needed to have a good cry and get it out. I have decided to try to eliminate stress from my life, as really, there is just no need for it. Nothing can compare to losing your child, so I am not going to let things like work and bills etc worry me. I am going to leave work (well in a couple of weeks - I am going on holidays at Easter, so no point looking for a new job before then) and have a fresh start.
Lynn - Sorry your results werent as good as you hoped, but I will keep my fingers crossed that AF arrives soon (as big a PIA as she is) so that you can start looking forward to the next cycle. Bummer about the painting, although at least it will keep you busy. I am glad your day today has been a bit better
Deb - So sorry about Googly, I hope your little ones werent too upset by it. I remember crying when my fish Freddy died as a kid Glad you found that silver lining though... mmmmm I love scrambled eggs!
Bailey - So glad that you are also having a better day, seems like a much more positive day in here in general huh. Good on you for deciding to quit your job, I have to admit it is definitely one less thing to worry about for me now and I dont regret quitting for one second. Its so hard to not stress about things like bills etc, but you are right that in the whole scheme of life there are more important things to worry about. A holiday sounds great, you will feel so relaxed when you get back.
Spring - Still thinking of you and hoping your day has been as good as is possible under the circumstances. I assume we wont hear from you tonight seeing as you have been in Canberra all day. Sending :hugs: you way.
to everyone else.
Didnt get to make slice for dinner, just before I went for my walk I realised DH had my eftpos card so only had enough cash on me for postage and a roll and banana for lunch so DH got stuff on the way home and made me a baked potato. We are seeing his kids for dinner tomorrow night, and will have to take them to Maccas cause we dont have time to bring them home. I dont eat Maccas though so dunno what I will have.
Oh and Bailey, zucchini slice is different for everybody I think - I make it with zucchini, carrot, eggs, flour, oil, cheese, onion and S&P and it is so yum, and we have it with salad! If you want to recipe I can give it, the recipe I have is actually from a kinder cookbook so your son might eat it too.
Mel - yeah big bummer on the test results but what can you do hey! Never thought I would say this but 'hurry up AF'. Glad you are feeling a bit better tomorrow. Hopefully tomorrow will be a little bit better again and you can find a smile. Thinking of you - big :hugs:
Bailey- I think it is good to have a cry and let it all out. I hope today has brought you a smile Good on you for quitting work. Less stress the better.
Deb - I'm sorry to hear about googly. I presume he was one of those fish with the big eyes? Hope the kids weren't too upset. Sounds like you have had a busy day. How is the clomid treating you?
I can't wait to graduate from here! Although I want all of us to graduate together. Ok the plan - gotta love a plan! I am on metformin 1500 and will take Clomid 50 on CD4-8, then my FS will monitor me with BT and ultrasounds from CD9 (does he know that I have the longest cycles in the world!!!!!!). By doing all of this, he will be able to see what my body and little eggies are doing and then can tell me when to DTD - so hopefully at the end of the cycle I will have a BFP! Won't that be nice!
and I have to drive to the coast to get a replacement. There is always a silver lining though and the pet shop will replace the fish tank with the next size up as they have been very slack in getting a replacement lamp for the tank in. So on Thursday we will head down and get a replacement "Googly" and tank!
