snowie- i def think the due date being your dads b-day is good luck. I imagine it must suck getting the bfp and still not being able to completely be exited. but my prayers are with you and i hope this is it for you!!! keep us updated

Oh Snowie! I am so happy, for you! I understand your caution, and I will be ready to fully celebrate when you are.

I second that, Mere.

Snowie - What great news. I am so happy for you!!! I am sure your dad is looking down on you and DH!!! I hope this is it for you!!! My fingers are crossed and I will say an extra prayer for you!

Christie, Kayla (again ), Crystal, Mere, Steph (again ), and Jen-Thank you girls! I took yet another test and it's still a BFP...DH suggested I open up a new box in case the ones in this one were faulty.

Snowie ~ The box is not faulty, BUT, buy as many as you want and enjoy seeing that BFP! I probably took 10+ over a 2 week period. I'm just so freakin' happy for you. Did you get a chance to call the doc./make an appt?

Snowie-I am so hoping this is your sticky bean. What great news. And it sounds like your dad is watching over you. I believe things happen for a reason and they say when one person leaves this earth it is for another to come.

Dana-I hope I'm getting a + soon too. I hate this because it never fails when I have scheduled appts based on my usual O or AF my body does something completely different. I can't really have a late O because DH is leaving Monday for work. I took another OPK tonight and I'm starting to get the faint test line. So I'm thinking I'm just going to call the RE tomorrow and start the process anyways for the test. It would mean u/s tomorrow and the actual test Saturday. So by then I should definitely be Oing. I just can't take the stress of waiting and I'm afraid I'll throw it off even more. I've been looking at my old charts and the latest I got a + OPK was CD 18 which would be Saturday anyways. It makes me very tired of going through this every month and these little things make me want to just throw in the towel. I question if it's really worth the pressure and stress. Plus I took today and tomorrow off work expecting I'd be doing these damn test and now feel like I wasted days off work.

Ok sorry for the ranting long post.

Snowie - so good to hear your voice. - I'm so excited for you.... I'll say it again!!!! eat pineapple!!! I'm not sure how much is too much. But eat pineapple it helps with implantation. And I think you should go get your Beta checked too and get your progesterone checked. I know you want to take the relaxed route on this but I think it'll be good to be proactive...plus it'll make us all happy. =) I tried convincing Snowie on the phone...so I may need others to help me persuade her! This is for you!

Lauren - My birthday is August 19th. and your birthday is right around Carlos'. That's too cute about the fertility baby!!! Whatever works!!! I think that was really sweet. Of couse it would depend on my mood whether I thought it was sweet or if it bothered me.

Cyrstal - That is a great idea about the tennis ball, I'll have to try that!

Steph - Hugs...I can't even imagine. These days I've been dealing with Jonathan's Dad recurring relapse...and now I'm just avoiding his calls and keeping a journal of our conversations. Feel so bad for his wife.

Dana - I didn't know that about insurance companies and infertility meds....that's just flippin great. Why does everything have to be so complicated on top of the emotional aspect.

Mari - I know what you mean. I always felt so lonely with my MFI issue. I think overall Carlos & I are happier but I battle internally by myself ALOT. I still cry alot. Today was a difficult day. I feel like such a failure and I've dissappointed Carlos & my son. It's a HUGE pill to swallow. But other days I feel totally happy and at peace. it's really 50/50 one doesn't outweight the other. Good luck with the injectables!!! Are you giving them to yourself or is your DH doing them? What med is he taken?

Well my interview today didn't happen. I showed up and the guy forgot and was out at a clients. How rude is that??? Then when we tried to reschedule, he called my cell, didn't leave a msg and then called my job!!!!!!!! and left a voice mail there. dumbass.

Betsy-That sucks about your interview. I hate when people call work and leave messages that shouldn't. I hope something pans out from your interviews!

Snowie-I agree that you should go get your beta. Is this your first BFP on clomid? Hopefully that will help with the sticky bean!

Well finally got a + OPK so I'll be calling the RE's office and starting the process. I'm nervous for the u/s and to find out how my follies are doing. This will be the first time for the u/s. I'll let you all know how it goes.

Snowie - congrats! I hope this is a sticky bean with such a special b-day.

Snowie- Hoping that this is IT! Can't wait to see those beautiful two lines!!!

I just got back from the dr's office. I'll get to find out my progesterone level on Monday. My temps have been very steady the last few days. I wish there was a certain temperature pattern for knowing that you are pg, without having to wait 18 days. Oh well....

Heidi- Anxious to find out how the re's office visit went. Report back asap!

Kelly- Hello!!

Dana- Pretty chart, girl!

Oh Snowie (((BIG HUGS))). I hope it is just implantation bleeding. You are in my thoughts. STICKY VIBES!

I called the dr and going to see the on-call at noon. I'm sure it was yet another chemical but just want to rule out an ectopic. Probably just gonna get a beta to make sure the numbers are going down.

I'm dreading calling DH to give him the bad news.

Snowie, I'm sorry. Don't give up on the bean yet. Did you poas again this am?

We're here for you.

__________________

I did POAS again and it was lighter than the afternoon test but about the same as yesterdays' FMU. I then took another one an hour later (which was when I discovered the spotting) which was even lighter. So I'm sure it's another chemical to add to my stupid list.

Roma - that is one pretty chart! I'll be thinking positive thoughts for you.

Snowie - Stay positive sweetie......spotting happens to numerous women who go on to have healthy pregnancies. I hope your scheduled to get hcg tests and see your doc soon.
