Hey ladies! I'm back. I didn't get a chance to check while away, but am caught up now. I has a great time skiing and it was great to get away for a few days. AF showed up as expected of course on the 7th day aft my hcg injections. Grr. Dealt with it pretty well, but am left wondering if we should be doing something differently? I started clomid today and will have to call Dr. B tomorrow to schedule an US. Feeling the need to ask him what the plan should be and if the one we have is adequate... Sorry I don't have time to do personals for everyone....I need to go eat I'm starving. Heather- Welcome back and I'm glad that your cycles are normal again. Way to go on the weight loss that is great! Autumn- Congrats! So excited for you! Mar- It is really tough to have so many people in your life expecting or new babies. Nicole- I was hoping you'd be feeling better! Simone- KMFC for you! Isra- Thanks for the cheers!

Good morning ladies :) Boy, what a weekend with the snowstorm! I ended up bringing Aaron with me on Fri for part of the day so I wouldn't get too behind. It's a good thing because yesterday still was a catch up day. Happy 17 weeks Christine! You have your anatomy scan scheduled soon too right? Heather: YAY for losing 17 pounds! It's great to see you :) But, darn it AF! I'm sorry she's been such a meanie too :( Brie: I'm sure she is :) Can't wait for Autumn to update us! She's gotta be a busy mommy ;) Simone: Thanks hun ♥ me too. No reprieve yet I'm afraid :( Sure looks like O happened for you :) FX'd you caught that eggie girl ;) How are the Valentine's Day preparations going with the boys? Aww, kids can be so thoughtful, I'm sure your heart wanted to melt right there. Bedtimes can be so stressful especially with different kinds of sleepers. I'm glad Ty is doing better :) That woman at Chad's work is definitely insecure about her own position there, I'm sorry she's taking it out on him. YAY for Lennox! Isra: Oh gosh, hope so too. This is usually the best time of pregnancy. Thanks darlin' ♥ Aaron has had some better days since :) When he's like that it throws us for a loop because he's usually such a good boy. He was so well-behaved on Fri when I brought him here, I got tons of compliments from my co-workers :) Looks to me that Sun might've been your O day, and CD13 is good :) FX'd ;) Welcome back Tara :) I'm so glad you had a great time skiing! That really stinks AF showed though :( I think when you call Dr. B today I would ask him if there is another strategy you can take for this cycle. It's good that you O on the Clomid, but there's gotta be something about these IUI's. I was hoping so too, but no such luck yet. I'm just looking forward to next week's u/s to see baby again, it gets me through this knowing at least they're doing well right :) How are you feeling Amber? Love and ((HUGS)) to you all ♥

Nicole I have been feeling amazing since getting the reglan pump. I have been so busy with doctors apps and catching up with school. I will try to catch up with everyone later today when I have a free minute!

Nicole- So glad you get another US next week! I'm excited to hear about it! I hope they will be able to see gender. I'm not sure that I will get a chance to talk to the nurse when I call today. I do want to ask him what he's thinking about where we are in all this. Just doesn't seem like this plan is going to work for us and we are just flushing money down the toilet.

So I scheduled my US for CD16 which is the Friday 22nd. I told her that I wanted to reevaluate our plan when she asked if we want to schedule another US and IUI. She offered to schedule a sit down with Dr. B, but really I don't want to have to pay for it. I rather just wait for the US and decide then which she said is okay. The person I talked to is a nurse we don't see as often and wanted us to come in no later than CD15, so we don't miss anything. I pushed for at least the next day since I usually O so late. Having very mixed feelings about this.

Tara: Me too! I haven't seen baby since my 12 week screening so I'm really anxious. I don't know how to feel about the gender. Everything is so different than it was with Aaron. Besides the nausea and tummy issues I've been breaking out and my eczema flare ups are more frequent. My energy is still not there even when I'm making the effort to hop on that treadmill. I had extra hormones at the beginning carrying twins, do you think this could be why I've been so sick? Maybe my body is still trying to adapt to carrying one now and it's confused (?) I don't remember, have you discussed IVF with Dr. B yet? There has to be something beyond these medicated and IUI cycles. That's what happened to us, we had to re-evaluate and come up with a new plan. I really hope you can too sweetie, I know how difficult this has been for you ((BIG HUGS))

Tara: Oh we posted at the same time ;) That's right, re-evaluating is the way to go. Your u/s is same day as mine! I'm surprised they didn't make it later though as you said (like around CD19 again) Definitely a good idea to discuss what's next with Dr. B after it's done though.

Heather good job on the weight loss! Amber glad the pump is working for you! Tara glad you had a nice ski trip! I am glad you are going to talk with the doctor and see if there is something else needed to get you pregnant. I really hope it works, what ever it is! GL at your scan on the 22nd! Nicole sorry you still have m/s! I don't think that the hormones from your pregnancy being twins in the beginning would effect you still suffering with bad m/s. Maybe you are having a girl and that is why your pregnancy is so different. GL with your scan on the 22nd as well! That is my foster brother's 34th birthday. The kids have not wanted to do their Valentie's Day stuff. Hopefully tonight. I got CH's today! spent the morning looking for the right card for Chad for V Day and came home with nothing. I drop my twins off at the side of the road for school and they walk on the sidewalk to the school entrance and both slipped on the icy sidewalk. Then when I had to take Len to his school we had to walk on the snow banks because the sidewalks were ice there too. The city really needs to put salt down because I can just imagine a lot of broken bones and head injuries from the kids running and slipping.
Simone SAHM to 5 boys: Trenton 19, Tyler 16, Peyton 7, Eli 7, and Lennox 3.5 years and 3 ^A^ s

Simone: How were you feeling when you were carrying Eli and Peyton? Thanks for your opinion ♥ I think I'm just grasping at any reasons for all of this ya know. I hope you can get the kids to work on their Valentine's stuff tonight. My parents have been trying to accomplish that with Aaron today, we'll see how that goes ;) YAY for CH's! I'm sure you'll be able to find Chad a nice V card :) I know, the between the mounds of snow and ice it's so dangerous for the kids AND us out there!
