Deanna/Steph- Hearing the chatter about a pregnant coworker is the worst. I got rid of one, and the other one, who so tactifully told me she was pregnant while I was doing my last IUI, (who I've barely spoken to since) is now very much showing, I just heard recently that she just told people. Luckily she is on the other side of the office.

Rebecca- I have print outs of all my charts, on the lower dose of clomid, my temps were less consistent, but the higher dose they were more "normal". Who knows. Hope you get your positive OPK today. Have you tried soaking your feet in hot water? supposedly helps the follies. Good luck with your IUI, and breathe. And close the cap quick. =)

Lauren - you hadn't told me about the interview. E-mail me.

Karyn- welcome back on the ride....please step in and buckle

Deanna - I think the time for the lap probably has come. It may answer some questions for you. Keep me posted.

Had one of those incredibly stupid fights with my husband yesterday. It was about Luna...we fight alot over the damn cat. anyway, we got it taken care of. Luna has now had her vaccines, and all her tests. She's a bit droopy right now, but hoping that 's just from the vaccines, our next big fight will probably be over the sterilization. Certainly gives me a taste of our different parenting styles although I always suspected it.

I ran across this one and thought of those of us who carried babies inside of us for some amount of time.

I know today is one of those poopy days where you'd rather hide from anyone in the public, cause invariably someone is going to say something stupid.

I have told this to quite a few people who are in this insanity. I truly believe that from the day you start TTC, taking vitamins, quitting bad habits, losing weight, medical treatments, etc. you become a mother. You are taking care of your body as if your child is within you, you are making decisions and dealing with situations as a mother, you breath, eat, BD for the purpose of being a mother. So a handful here, in my opinion have been mothers longer than some women who actually have a body to hold. I know it's not the same and it's a sucky ass consolation. But I believe whole heartedly that the babies we carry in our hearts and in our dreams are 100% ours and makes us Mother's. So with that said....Happy Mother's Day....and as previously mentioned Happy Women's Day. Love you guys.
