Ugh Tess I hate waiting for IUI's. I don't know if they understand how COLD it gets when you're laying there half naked with a paper towel draped over your legs! And then they come in and it takes 2 minutes to do, geezers.
Tess--I'm keeping my fingers crossed that your IUI is a success! Waiting at doctor's offices is the worst. Right now, I'm waiting for results on my CD 3 bloodwork, and J just scheduled his SA for Monday morning. So I'm guessing late next week or the week after for the appointment to discuss what's next. Oh--and I do run outside through the winter (I hate the treadmill!), but bear in mind I've never lived in a terribly cold climate. I'm in SoCal now, and before I lived in the San Francisco area, where there's frost on the ground maybe 3 times a year. :) So when I do my early morning runs, it's usually in the high 40s/low 50s. I do have lots of runner friends in the midwest and northeast who run outside in super chilly weather, though!
Shana--fingers crossed for you, too! A baby that coincides with your 10th would be amazing!
I'm so glad I have a 3-day weekend! I just signed up yesterday for a half-marathon that's on Sunday, after I found out it goes right past our apartment. I've never run a race spur-of-the-moment like that, but it's so conveniently located, and I needed to get a long run in this weekend anyway, so I figured I might as well. Other than that, we're having some friends over on both Saturday and Sunday. Then I'll go with J to his SA early Monday morning before he goes to work, and have the rest of the day to myself!
Tess- I am also cheering for you! I hate waiting at the docs! I'm so spoiled that ours usually doesn't make me wait too long. We drop off the sample in the morning and I go back later for IUI, again ADD, LOL.
Rebekah- I'm sorry the blood draw went poorly. I'm pretty lucky, I have prominant veins and get stuck with no issues. I'm also still jelous of the weather. I hope your run goes great this weekend!
AFM- still freezin my buns off. It actually did snow on Wednesday night, but nothing stuck to the ground thank goodness! I'm on a rest cycle because out clinch is closed from Christmas through New Year's, so they won't start any new cycles that week. I started AF on Christmas Eve- boo. I do my last try with the clinical trial this month, so it won't be upping any drugs of anything. Then, I don't know what we'll do, I haven't thought that far in advance.
Tiffany - We are finally getting snow this year, for Christmas we had nothing, it was actually in the 60's a few day's after Christmas! So sad!
Tiffany - I'm short on decorating sense, too. I dream of having a beautifully painted and decorated home, but I just never know where to start. I so hope this next try with the clinical trial is the lucky one for you!
Shana - New/different symptoms always revive my hope--I hope they're a sign of good things to come for you! I'm sorry you have to work today. J does too, but I have the day off.
AFM - my race yesterday was great--thanks for thinking of me, ladies! The weather was perfect for running--cloudy and in the 50s. I was only running this as a training run for my half marathon in two weeks, so I took it easy and felt good the whole time.
Aside from that, it was a pretty quiet weekend. We had friends over Saturday and Sunday, but didn't do anything big, just hung out. J went in for his SA this morning (we jumped on the opportunity to do it on a day when I was off work so I could go along). So now it's just a waiting game. I don't know if my OB's office is open today or not. If so, I should get my CD 3 bloodwork results today. If not, then that will be tomorrow, and they said SA results would be tomorrow or Wednesday. I think we're going to schedule our follow-up sit down with my OB for the end of the month, when I have some time off of work.
Shana- you said you feel the same as every other cycle but then you mentioned all those strange symptoms!!
LOL I guess that was confusing when I was talking about two different symptoms. What I was going for is, I hope I just start puking my guts out and get big heavy boobs! LOL I over react with every new symptom, although the light headiness really is driving me crazy and if that is my PG symptom I hope it goes away before too long, I've never had a drink in my life and I feel drunk. I don't know how I can compare it to that but all being drunk is is you can't control yourself, and you feel sick....... Yeah that's how I feel LOL
Well ladies,
Shana, that's so cool that you're going to help coach! They'll definitely keep you busy! I played soccer for almost 10 years, and loved it (though I was never good at it). Soccer is high on the list of things J and I look forward to about having a kid. :)
I'm back at work and having sort of a tough day. I'm not sure why, entirely--but I feel a bit down--just sort of "blah." My doctor should call this afternoon with my CD 3 results, so chances are that + waiting on the SA results has something to do with it. I'm simultaneously anxious to get the results, and scared about what they might be. I also just got an email from a client about Mother's Day plans, which reminded me that might be a tough day this year. Last year, I was only 4 or 5 months into TTC, so Mother's Day was still sort of exciting--thinking it would be my last one without a baby (or a baby on the way). But I'm getting ahead of myself, aren't I? :) There's still lots of time between now and May--anything could happen.
nice to have some ladies here who understand!
