Leena and mll~ Thank you for posting that your laps weren't bad. It's good to hear from someone who actually has been through the process And to know that you are now carrying your babies is more inspiring. Thanks.

Regina-Do you know what to expect when you go? Like are they planning on doing any test? Try not to be nervous, you are just getting closer to having another sweet baby. How is baby girl?

Leena~ She's sleeping like a baby

I'm taking my medical records and charts. The first visit is a consult. They will also be doing a ultrasound at the first visit. You're right. It's a big step towrds my BFP, finally.

Regina-You know I wish you all the luck in the world! I can't wait till the day you post that bfp. I don't think it is too far away. Give Marissa a big ole hug for me, she is such a cutie pie.

Leena~ I'll go give her a hug right now while she's sleeping

Thank you for keeping positive for me

How are you feeling? Getting anxious to see John, John?

Regina-I am getting a little nervous about the delivery & being a mom. It sounds so weird (in a good way). I am scared I won't know what to do or I will do the wrong thing. I sure didn't think I would be second guessing myself like this. I sure can't wait to hold him in my arms & love him more than life itself. Any good mom advice?

Ya, go by your gut feeling! Everyone is going to tell you How, what, when where, why, with this baby, but you have to go by your own instincts! Do what's best for you and your baby. Example, if you don't feel comfortable letting him "Cry it out", then by all means, go to him and pick him up. I could NEVER let Marissa cry it out. It broke my heart People would tell me that I was spoiling her, well you know what? I'm the one who was taking care of her!

Are your bags packed and ready to go? Make sure you have plenty of $1.00 bills and plenty of quarters for DH for the vending machines Also, have the car seat installed in the car ahead of time. This way you're not fussing with having to do it when you're ready to go home with John, John. I remeber wanting to go home and Marissa's dad still had to install the car seat You won't need too many supplies. The hospital will supply you with EVERYTHING. Pack the camera and a going home outfit and a baby blanket.

Regina-You are full of good advice. I have packed my bags with lots of change. The car seat is installed, now we are just playing the waiting game.
Believe it or not people have already started telling me what I should & shouldn't do.

Leena~ You will be an excellent mom. Do what feels right to you. Of course I'm sure you'll have lots of questions when John John gets here

__________________

Thanks Regina! Just in case I am having John, John around the 14th I will send a prayer right now that your appt. goes well & helps you get that BFP very soon.

__________________

You're welcome and thank you, too Praying all goes well for you as well.

I hate to jump out of the loop, but I need to get off the computer now. Marissa will be waking me up in the morning "Mommy... wake up, get out of bed" as she's lifting my eye lid

Good night.

Rebecca-I'm sorry you are feeling down. I can relate as I'm sure everyone here can. It's hard when there's no explanation as to why it isn't happening. I was thrilled that they didn't find anything with the HSG and I was normal......but then my thoughts turn to "why can't I just get pg"? The only thing I can hang onto right now is that may be it just hasn't been our time yet. I hope you do hang in there. You're time will come I just know it. HUGS.

Betsy-You're welcome about the info. Since we've been the only ones told to abstain it appears I didn't really worry about it. And I posted before that I tried to get clarification and dealt with that crappy nurse. I still think it's the CYA thing about just wanting to be sure there's no chance you could be pg.

Rebecca and Regina - I'm sorry, I didn't post the poem to upset anyone. Sometimes I just need a little hope that everything Juan and I have been through is not for naught, if that makes sense. I ran across it on another website, and as much as it made me cry to read it, it made me also realize that there is a plan, and that I have to trust in it, or go nuts.

I'm wondering if I didn't actually ovulate last month. My AF is not normal this month, it's sooooo light. I never have light AFs. I'm also freaked out about ectopics given previous experience, so I will probably do an HPT before I start my clomid tonight. I'm sure it will be negative, I just am so confused by my AF.

Emily - Don't worry about it. You didn't upset me, I just chose not to read it. If I'm feeling better about ttc at a later date, I will probably go back and read it.

Jen - That makes total sense. I've always thought that wait period between m/c is a good idea. It's good you are taking your time instead of getting wrapped up in the desperation of having a baby right away. With IVF it's a big process even though you know what to expect it makes "it" actually eas
