Irene ~ That is a good point, thank you!

Mel- I'm not 100% clear on what the hysteroscopy is, so I'll have to google that one. Irene's got a great point, though I totally forgot about the heavy bleeding. I also wouldn't hesitate to ask the Dr about the lap. You said she didn't mention it, but they are human and sometimes need a little guidance from us. I think it's a little brash to immediately assume there was an error in diagnoses on the HSG, though.


Karyn- LOL! Telling DH to shut up. You vacum every other day? Where did that Martha Stewart tiara go...........

I didn't get my wine last night but I did go meet Forrest and ate Mexican, I love Mexican food. It was so hot I talked Forrest in coming home with me, his truck's air has been out for 3 weeks now. Hopefully they will fix it tomorrow or Saturday, they finally got the part for it. I had to take him back to the truck this morning so we got up 45 minutes earlier so I could, and the darn truck would not start. He called for them to come get him started. I sure hope his day goes better than it has started out.

Hope everyone had a good restful night.

Kayrn how was the water park, I envy your, hope you had a blast!

Lauren how are things going with you, any sign of Elmo yet? Thinking of you....

Stephanie how are you?

Lisa and Christie~ I live 2 miles from Carowins! We had season passes 2 years ago. We should so meet there sometime.

That would be fun!

Irene - I'm surprised how well I have been doing with temping!

Rebecca - I haven't been to a waterpark in a while! DH has said before that he would like to get a boat. The problem is...when we would we have time for it! Our weekends are at the campground! It was a nice idea at first! I would love to have a boat!

Melissa - I like the waterparks & water rides. I can't do rides that you go upside down. I can do faster things (that sounds good) but don't hang me upside down.

Lisa - Hopefully I can make it to the nursery early next week. There is a really nice one by me that is HUGE. They are very helpful, they will walk around with you for how ever long you want. My mom is a master gardner. She knows every plant, every flower, every bush. I might just have her come with. You need to get to a waterpark for some fun! Call it your fiscal celebration! Meet Christie & Rock Chic! I love Meixcan food! DH likes it but not like I do. He doesn't like chips & salsa or guacamole.......I know, I don't know what's wrong with him either.

Christie - Ooh mini gardenia's sound nice! I will have to google that when I'm done here. Yardwork is my nice calming time, I like doing it. I wonder if I got that from my mother!

Claire - No tiara needed here! I think it's more OCD! I'm kind of a nutjob when it comes to cleaning. DH doesn't seem to mind, I'm nutty but I don't expect him to be. Sort of like Monica from Friends, except I don't make potpourri packs with old panyhose

Lauren - I hope AF has shown up for you.

The waterpark was a blast! We were there from 10 until 7! All the water rides were completely enclosed. So while you were flying through the slide on a tube, it was pitch black! Every one that I have been on before has had the top part open. It's completely dark until you get to the bottom & end up in the little pool at the end. It was fun, I had just never been on that kind before! I was beat when I got home.

Hi girls I've been away for awhile but still try and keep up on everyone. I leave for Mexico Saturday! So excited!!! Its nice not worrying about TTC at the moment. Not to sure if its away for me to ignore the issue and its easier to try and forget about, or if I really am ok. KWIM??? When I get back from Mexico I am really going to press having the lap done. I hope she listens, I don't see why not, and hopefully have it done in Aug.

Melissa~So you're having the hysteroscopy done? I was curious about that too. But I figured to just do the lap cause they can fix the same things if they did the lap. But if there's endo I don't believe it can be fixed through a hysteroscopy. Could be wrong. I feel your frustration on the spotting for sure! I think we are in the same boat. I haven't spotted to much before AF now, its after AF. Weird and AF is getting shorter and shorter. This month it was only 2 days and then I spotted for 7 after. You have heavy periods? Mine used to be so heavy I had to wear a tampon and a pad to bed cause i'd leak. Yuck! When you having that done?

Well I better get back to work! I'm already in vacation mode

Karyn ~ You mean you don’t have your furniture at exact spots in the house that if they were moved the tiniest inch you wouldn’t notice? You don’t insist on people using coasters? You mean you don’t let your friends decorate your Christmas tree and then turn it around to reveal a side of the tree decorated perfectly? LOL, I love Monica. Some of my friends call me Monica.

Deanna ~ I know, I would rather have the lap done too, but no one suspects endo in my case and Claire and Irene did bring up a good point that I do have heavy periods but they are no longer than, say 3 days but the spotting before and after is ridiculous! Last cycle and this cycle has been interesting in that I’ve gotten some mild cramping when the spotting first started and now nothing, which is really cruel of my body b/ I’m thinking, maybe there is a chance I’m pg (b/ some people do spot when they are pg, my mom said she spotted with me the first trimester) and then BAM! AF comes with a vengeance and I’m doubled over with cramps. At least that is what I think will happen again b/ I’m w/o cramps. Last cycle I could barely enjoy the Grand Canyon b/ I was in pain most of the day! Anyway, to answer your question, I have to call the RE’s office on CD1, get b/w on CD 2 or 3 and then schedule it from there. They are going to have me take NorDQ to thin my lining, I guess to take a better look. So, we’ll see.

Sarah, Christie, you and I are going to have to plan something one day soon to meet at Carowinds for the day. That would be fun. Hopefully once things calm down here at work I will have some free time again to myself.

Kayrn have fun when you go to the nursery, I love walking around looking and dreaming when I go. I could spend lots of $$$ there no problem and go home loving planting it all every minute. I love getting in the yard and getting dirty if you know what I mean. I so want to landscape but if we are going to build that is useless. So for now I do around Mama's house and enjoy it every bit.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Melissa - My RE didn't think I had endo either. It was the last step in "trying to figure what's wrong me." He said there is so much that a Lap can find. Also, he said that out of his patients who have endo, 85% of them didn't know they had it until they did a Lap. LOL@ Monica!

Lisa - I always buy more than I planned at the nursery! That's the best part of DH having a work truck, I have his truck at home to haul as many plants as I want! Just think if you do build, you get a nice, clean slate to work with!

Have a great weekend ladies!

AF IS HERE THIS MORNING!!!! I am so relieved! I guess I start bcps today and wait to get the rest of my schedule.

The beach has been WONDERFUL! I am heading home this afternoon. I will catch up on all the posts when I get home. Hope everyone has had a good week!

__________________

Karyn - did your RE say anything about what your increased chances are now that you've had your endo treated? I know its probably great just to have less pain during AF, but it would be even better to get a bfp now.

Mel - I can see a lot of Monica in you LOL! I would like to be Rachel but I'm probably more like Phoebe haha! Do you know if they can see endo during the hysteroscopy? Getting the less invasive thing done first makes sense if they really don't think its endo and it could just be a cyst... but it would be cool if they could figure out during if you might need the lap too...

Lauren - yay for AF finally showing up!!!! I'm glad you enjoyed your time at the beach. I'm looking forward to hearing all the details now that you're moving ahead - I've got my that this cycle everything works as its supposed to!!!

Lauren - Awesome!!! Have a safe trip home and check in when you get there!!

Lauren, so glad AF showed up for you! And really glad you're enjoying the beach.

Lauren-YAY for AF finally showing!!! And glad you are having fun at the beach.

Mel-I remember when it used to only cost $20 to go to the D-land! Dh and I had one of our first dates there. All we have now that we're in TX is Six Flags

Lauren- It's not often we get to say YAY to AF, so: Swweeeett!

Irene- I have no idea what the statistics are, but you know how I have the "lap" buddy group in FF? Well, I'd say roughly 85% of them got PG right after (within2-3) months of the lap and removed endo. Except me, of course . But yeah, seems to have helped most girls quite a bit.
