Good morning girls! I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. My dad left this morning, so now I am cleaning once again. Only 4 more days with the kids, and then they are back to their moms house. Things will sure be quiet when they're gone. Here are a few pics from our 4th of July.
My dad with the kids at my grandmother's house http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g1.../Poppakids.jpg The kids in the sprinkler http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g1...ishsplash2.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g1...lishsplash.jpg My mom emailed from China and she got me a "fertility baby" that was blessed by a taoist monk.  She said there is a story behind it that she will share when she gets home. Kind of funny. I will have to take a picture of whatever it is and post it when she comes home.Heidi~ Thank you! I can't wait either! Christie~ I will keep you posted!

Kristy ~ Appeal, appeal, appeal. It sucks that she's having to deal with this after all it took to get her here. It sounds like bullshit to me. The pre-existing condition clause should extend to her fertility treatment, since the condition of infertility was diagnosed before she had health insurance (she didn't have any before this job, i guess?). But the actual pregnancy began AFTER she obtained the insurance, so anything relating to infertility or RE's and stuff like that wouldn't be covered, but the 'condition' of pregnancy itself should be. Once you go back to a regular OB, the condition of pregnancy ends the condition of infertility, right? And you can do all the meds you want, but without that swimmer, not gonna happen. :P
Hi guys. The beginning of the week was hopeful, but the universe is conspiring against me, and yesterday sucked. DH is a big, fat, PITA. He pulled another good one yesterday. His moral compass is so jacked up, it's like one infraction is no different from another. He just layers insult upon injury upon insult. It's the ultimate test of my beliefs -- to live them even when I feel like he doesn't deserve it in the least. Still there's this really strange part of my brain that is sitting back watching everything he does, and comprehends it. Not making excuses for the behavior, but sort of in the way that you are watching someone lie, who you already know the answer. You watch their expression and tone, almost the car-wreck thing. I'm boiling down his most prevalent personality faults; things he doesn't realize or have a true comprehension of. It's an odd sensation. He's like watching a really screwed up little kid, but the thing I'm so scared of is that he doesn't realize the major ramifications that could come from certain actions. I'm babbling...I can't explain it right.  Bec ~ life is on hold. I'm not even present enough to miss old things. I don't know. Just hanging by a thread...

Good Morning Girls!
Kristy - I remember a post from a while back about how health insurance companies may not take you if you've ever taken fertility meds so there are these women out there that cannot get coverage for themselves and seems to me that they wouldn't take the kids either...but I'm not sure on that part. Insurance companies are a scam! They only want the ones with no claims and if you have claims they drop you or raise the rates so high you can't pay them. Betsy - Hello!! Sounds like you are doing well and staying very busy!! You are such a great mom to help out with the musical! Sorry about the BD scare. You never know what is in store for you. It may be a great surprise!! Rac - I've had that problem with my duvet cover in the dryer too. It is maddening when you think it is all ready to go and still sopping wet! Hopefully it all worked out and you got to bed! Lauren - Cute pictures!! Cleaning is so much fun!! Cool! a Fertility baby...we need a few of those around here. I saw a frog last night in our yard...isn't that a sign of fertility??  Wishful thinking. Heidi - Hopefully you get you + soon. My O came late and now I won't be on CD2 when I go to the RE like I was thinking I was going to be. It never works out like you "wanted" it too. Plus, I have a big party to go to Saturday too so I want to know if AF is coming so I can drink! Well I have a short day at work today so I better get something done!! Hope you all had a great 4th!! The weekend is near!

Dana - Considering that last night was the first in a week that Nimosh wasn't up at 2AM, I wish my sheets would have dried sooner! It was almost 10:30 by the time I went to bed. It was nice to have clean fresh sheets and a solid 6 1/2 hrs of sleep for a change!

Hi girls,
I am posting this with caution given my history but I wanted to share that I got two BFPs this morning. The interesting thing is the due date given by FF is my dad's birthday. I think he's watching over me.  Of course, I'm gonna keep taking those HPTs until I get some sort of confirmation. Not jumping through the roof yet but it's a start. Dana-Your temps are looking really good! When are you testing? Heidi, Steph, Rebecca, Betsy, Lauren, Jo, and everyone else-Hi and hope you're all doing well!

OMG!
SNOWIE!!!!! Post pics! I know with the history you want to be cautious, but a bfp is a bfp I just really hope it sticks. I am jumping through the roof for you!  That is so neat about your dad's b-day, I think he is watching over you. Are you going to get in for some progesterone and beta b/w?

snowie- im so happy for you. I´ll be praying for you and your bean. Must be a sign your due date is your fathers bday. I´m sure he´s looking over you.
Lauren- im glad you had sucha a great vacation with the kids. I´m excited for your ivf cycle. Betsy- i´m sorry you got upset the other day. I´m sad you´re giving up on TTC, you were my one MFI buddy. I guess its ok if it makes you and Carlos happy. I´ve been on injectables this month, finally after 3 cycles on BCP due to cysts, they´re gone, and started with injections this cycle. Yesterday i went for an ultrasound, to check my follies, and there were 3 on my right side, just one big enough, 18mm.. and on my left , 2 small ones, one 10 mm and another 12mm. Dh and I have decided no to go down thr IUI route, we told our RE, and he understood. So now, we´re just trying to achieve really good quality ovulation, and DH is on meds to make his spermies, move faster. Im at peace with what God will bring, happy to have a good RE, and praying every day. Have a good day ladies.
