MAY? It's already May? What the heck happened to January?

Lindy~ I don't think you ever need to apologize here like that. This is all how "support" works. We need to be able to talk to others who-while they may not be in the exact same shoes-understand our feelings. I am TTC#1, but don't think or wish malice for those TTC #2+. Sure sometimes I have that jealousy of "at least you have 1", but I can finally admit to myself that sometimes my feelings aren't exactly rational. As my therapist says: Rational thought and emotions are in separate parts of the brain. LOL. We are all in this together...Thank GOD! Hope you get those results back soon.

Deanna~ Sorry you are feeling down. {{hugs}}. I know we all go through the super-pessimistic feelings. Hang in there. I agree, get the b/w done. At least you'll feel more proactive that way. I'm with ya, though-I hate giving blood. I almost passed out last time!

Irene~ So the u/s was all good, right. Yay. Glad you are getting all those answers. I know what you mean about changing your lifestyle in 2ww. I often think of how many women had NO CLUE they were pg in the 2ww and did all the bad things, and everything is good. I kind of think of it like washing my car to try to make it rain, KWIM?

Mel~ good luck finding another position. Are you teaching in public schools? What are the chances/requirements for a private school position? Just curious. Glad the spotting has stopped.

Rac~ About the painkillers: I know a girl whose Dr. said to ONLY take Aleve during Fertile time. When I asked my doc about it, he gave me a blank look and said that he and his wife argue about which is better, Ibu, or Aleve(for helping pain). I think he either misunderstood my question or has no idea that they can effect fertility. The one thing I do know is that a friend in the UK says that over there, Ibu has a warning on the bottle about fertility effects. We'll see if this surgery cured or at least helped my pain, but some days my O Pains were so severe, I had no option but to stay on painkillers. So far, my normal constant right ovary pain is gone! Knock on wood.

Ashley~ Sure hope you feel better soon! What a bummer. I don't know how you do it w/ a DH who is away often. I'd lose my marbles! Plus, I'm kinda insecure, so I'd always worry who he's with while he's away.

*edited to add*: BINA~ Shoot, I almost forgot about you....I'm really cheering you on over here, got my pom poms and everything!

So, DH goes for s/a today. I'm starting to get a little nervous. Trying not to worry about it at all. He's actually going to go by himself (oh, I'm so proud, such a big boy). I asked him if he was sure he didn't want me to go with him and he said "well, I USUALLY do "that deed" alone-I think I'll be OK" What a smart A**! LOL
