molly, lazy susan lock, toys r us in your area?..safety 1st i think is the brand, you do have to use 1 screw to the outside of the cabinet (not the door tho) and it works great for kitties or kiddies!
good luck

Molly - I can sooo relate. I was thrilled she finally showed. I knew I wasn't preggo, so the faster she got her the faster I knew I could start round #2.

I am double-posting . . . looks like I could IUI on either the 18th or the 19th. Went for day 2 work today and all looks good!

GOOD LUCK LADIES!!

oops...I counted wrong

Still no AF...and I counted wrong. My cycles are usually 28-30 days and today is day 30. Ugh. Normally when I get excited for something, my periods arrive early. I guess when I'm excited to start my period, it's arriving late. I'm not preggers, as I POAS yesterday. I also did one this morning for good measure, since I made a last minute dentists appt, realizing that we're starting treatment this month and I better get anything done that needs to be done (luckily, my teeth are all perfect!!). This test was also negative.

Here's the problem. I'm out of town the weekend of the 25th. I'm hoping that my trigger doesn't land on a weekend or that day 12 isn't a weekend (our office is open 7 days a week). I got concert tickets for my birthday and we're driving down to Philly so that we can see it with our friends. This is a 6 hour drive down so in theory, we could drive down Saturday morning, see the show and then wake up and drive back home Sunday morning. I don't REALLY want to do this, but I'm willing to do whatever we have to at this point.

Maybe I should go in and have blood work. I hear that the HPT's aren't always reliable. I've been incredibly regular 28-30 days for the last few months...why THIS month to be fashionably late?!?!

Aphrodite...Haven't heard from you for a bit...Did AF arrive yet? Just checking up on you hon...

Cassie (TXgirl4evr)...Good luck on your u/s and b/w today hon...Let us know how it went...

Slyfox...How are you doing...Second day of Clomid today...It made me get such bad headaches, and hot flashes...Hope it does the trick for you kiddo!!

Dylansmommy...How is the Clomid going for you hon? Good luck on your follie check on Wednesday...Can't wait to hear the great news!

AllDeliveriesNoBaby...How are you doing hon? Sticking away at yourself these days? Good luck on Tuesday for you too kiddo...I want to hear about some plump follies starting!

Patricia (dpkalina83)...Did you get AF yet hon? I didn't see you post if you did or not, and want to make sure you're still out there with us....I hope this first one does the trick and you're on your way to motherhood kiddo!!

Ally...Where is that blasted witch at anyway?? Again, I think she and I are going to have to have a talk...She's far to unreliable, and she needs to be fired...At least for 10 months...Right?!

Molly (momtocats4now)...AF today yet hon?? I know you were hoping she'd be here by now, and I'm hoping the cramping a few days back has finally brought her to fruition! Let's get her flowing, so we can get rolling, right??!

Angel (angsea)...Good luck with the last dose of Femara hon! This is going to be the one...Lucky #3 (full 3rd IUI)...Let's go with the numbers this cycle...I've got the lucky 7 and you've got 3...Let's hold onto anything that is going to work, right?

KatKat...I didn't see your siggy updated...You're 14dpiui according to my calculations...Do we have any good news to report?? Hoping so hon...If not, it will be great having you as a cycle-mate...

bistro...You're just one day ahead of me, but looks like you might have your IUIs a few days earlier than me...Obviously, we never know, but usually go a bit longer to get more follies into mature range...Regardless, it's great having you as a cycle buddy! Hope you get to give dh the bestest 35 b-day gift too! My dh just turned 35 on the 12th of June...If you can believe it, I forgot the entire day!! I remembered the day before, and after, but totally spaced the day of...I felt so guilty...He's totally milking it too! I'll let him have it through the 12th of this month...A month's worth of guilt, and he should be good... Hey...How did the u/s and b/w go yesterday? Let's hear numbers hon!

AFM...Nothing to report...Have WW weigh-in in the morning, but since I had a scheduling conflict with my baseline, I am going to go to the rooster meeting and will need to get up at about 5:30 to be there on time...Then up to Mad-Town for my RE check, and then onto sticking myself...I'm sure hoping my weigh-in brings me even more weight loss...I'm nearly positive it will, but don't own a scale, so you just never know...I'm really wanting to have a specific number met, and then I will be in the final single digits to reaching my goal weight! I've never been thinner than 4 lbs lower than I am right now, as an adult, so it should be interesting seeing if I can make it...I starved myself and did Phen/Fen that time, so since I'm doing it so much healthier, naturally and slower this time, I sure hope that will reflect on my ability to keep it off for a lifetime...Wish me luck with both the weigh-in and antral/baseline tomorrow! I'll report back as soon as I'm back home...Hugs to my girls! You all take care and if you're out of reach, have a wonderful weekend!! We're going to have some B-F-P's girls!! I can feel it!!

Hello Ladies,

Well I'm hanging right in here with everyone. I took my 2nd dose of 100mg Clomid this morning an starting to feel like I'm a oven. That is all side effects I've had so far. Was looking at my calander an if everything falls in place I should ovulate between the 17th or 18th this time. I hope to goodness this cycle works for us. Being waiting so long for it to happen. I'm still staying postive trying not to think negitive at all.

How is everyone doing today?

Sending tons of baby and to all..

Come On We Need More on here.. Lets Do It Ladies.

very impatient

Nope. No AF yet. However, I'm hoping it's still today as the day is not over yet!!

I went out to lunch with DH and he told me to get on it...as though I can FORCE AF He makes me happy. He's soo excited it's cute. We're both just so incredibly impatient! We had a hypothetical diaper changing discussion. He wants it to be even. I told him I'll take days, he can have nights. He compares changing our hypothetical child's diapers to changing the cat litter. I've explained that I CANNOT change the cat litter anymore because of the toxo. Of course, this has been my excuse for the last 2 years (remember, we've only been trying for a year and a half...)and I'm thinking he's not too convinced anymore. Honestly, I've been exposed to the litter so long, I'm sure I'm a carrier, or at least immune to the toxo by this point, but shhh, he doesn't need to know that!!

How's everyone else doing?!

KatKat- Sorry. I hope AF shows up soon then so that you can move on to the next round.

Charity- I am so glad to be cycling with you... You are always such a great support. I hope your weigh in goes well- you will have to keep us posted. You have so much to be proud of.

I hope everyone else is doing well.

AFM, I have two more days of Femara then on to the Bravelle. I hate shots in my belly! I can give shots all day long, or even receive them in my arm... but the belly is tough.
I start my night shifts tonight 7P-7A. I really hope that it doesn't mess up my cycle being on a different timing.
My son leaves in the AM for 9 weeks to see his dad in TX. I am a little anxious about that too. Not that it is a bad thing, but I just miss him so much when he is gone.

other injection sites?

AllDeliveries- the injections are subcutaneous, correct? Can't you do them in the outside of your thigh? Would that be more comfortable!?!?

KatKat- I'm sorry! I'm going to try and make this sound optomistic, rather than preachy. Everything happens for a reason. Perhaps you are merely supposed to have an easter bunny We're sad for you that you didn't get your , but we're happy that you get to join our group! You'll certainly be in my thoughts!!

Good luck to everyone this month! I'm ready for that (but of course have to wait for AF first...grr)
