hey girls! i have been up in the mountains at my mom's for the last 10 days just resting and enjoying the quiet, clean air, no cell coverage, etc. unfortunately i also only have dial-up internet here so it's way too taxing to log-on much. anyway, wanted to check on shelly and it looks like you haven't had your baby yet!? unreal that you are 39 weeks... i am so excited for you and can't wait to hear about the amazing experience you are about to have. i hope you all are doing well- i will try to catch up on posts soon!

[dndtaylor]

Hi Ladies.
Susan I’m glad to hear you are doing better. Rest up and stay in bed would be a dream order right now. I’m so tired and just ready to go home because it is Friday and the weather is great.

Kelly I hope you have fun on your getaway, I’m jealous.

Shawna how was the ER? Hope you are resting up nicely this weekend. When are you looking to have ET?

Rachael that would be perfect if you could find someone who knows someone in or around the Macon area? You rock!

Josee I’m glad that everything worked out with CCRM and your cycle. I can’t wait to cheer you on. How exciting it is to have a plan in sight. Your trip to SC is going to be a great way to decompress before the stress of IVF.

Amy how long are you going to be on meds? Yuck, I hope you feel better soon.

April have fun in Maui you little brat. J/K I’m jealous of you too.

Jen and Tia it stinks that you can’t get on like you used too at work. I’m just waiting for the day I’m blocked though.

Alana I can’t wait to hear all about your u/s? What I wouldn’t do to see my baby again. We have only had the one ultrasound and that was back at 20 wks. I’m sure the image is amazing these days.

Shelly I just knew you were going to have a little boy in your arms today with the sound of your 1st post in the middle of the night. I hope you are resting comfortably and feeling better today. Our we sure Danny is a “Danny”. He is acting more like a girl because he is being so stubborn and thinking only of himself, LOL. Regardless we are patiently sitting back waiting ... tick, tock. Aww, I bet the pool felt great? I’m hoping to lounge around in one this weekend but I’m nervous to get fried since my pale body hasn’t seen too much of the sun this year. Oh well, SPF 45 here I come.

Okay, sorry I’ve missed some folks but I must run and pick up my materials needed for jug-o-pee weekend. Oh and have any of you watch an infomercial and gotten sucked into buying the product? Well, I was at the gym this morning doing the treadmill and ending up watching some infomercial about shampoo or the lack there of. I’m tempted to buy the hair conditioner (it’s a green item that is healthier and gives your hair a shiner more uplifting look) but scared to get ripped off. Although there is a 60 day money back guarantee so it should be alright don’t you think. Anywho, check it out and let me know what you think, http://www.wenhaircare.com/index.php?acnt=GHZZD000&s_kwcid=wen%20hair%20care| 1725480466

Hey Devan! Hi Kris.

Devan, I never buy off TV. Did you google the item? How are you feeling? You always sound so energetic!


Jen, i found a rental place in denver. a blogger buddy has a forum buddy who rents out her place. she says it is near here on Jackson St. What is this neighborhood like? Google Maps

Hi, this is Shawna's DH, she made me update you all. This is what she has to say:

Hi girls! ER went well, i am actually happy i was conscious for it. I gt to watch them collect them and hear the running count. It was a bit painful but i felt so well they let me leave earlier then usual. Thanks to them coasting me for a bit some of my follies shrunk back and they retrieved 17. Three are a bit immature but could still fertilize fine. I would do it again in a heart beat, it was easy peasy! We will have a fert report tomorrow morning. For now I am popping T-3’s and resting comfortably with DH looking after me like the prince he is! Hope you are all well!! Talk to you all soon!! Thank you for all the support

[hannah01]

susan i am so glad you are okay! i know it's hard but try to enjoy your bedrest! soon you'll be longing for the days when you could sleep for as long as you want.

shelly wow i just read about your contractions and what's been going on - i am thinking about you and just so freaking excited about your little boy's arrival.

tia and jen, how is pregnancy treating you???

alana, i hope reed cooperates and you get a good photo!

congrats shawna on an excellent ER!!!

i hope the rest of you lovely ladies are doing well - i didn't have time to catch-up completely, but am thinking about everyone and just wanted to say HI!

[JustPeachy]

Josee - this is the site I found when I was looking at options to visit you guys... I saved it for the next time b/c it seemed like a great idea for big cities
Apartments in Colorado Apartments for rent Colorado apartment rentals, Colorado furnished apartments to rent Colorado sublets temporary short term rentals Colorado roommates rooms for rent.

Devan - You do have lots of energy! Can't say I miss those pee jugs. I'll be in the office on Wed. and will ask around and find you someone good in Macon. Do you need help before then or is Wed. ok?

Kris - We miss you! Hope that beautiful baby is giving you a couple of restful hours.

Just got back from dragging Aiden on a quick mall trip to do some returns. he hates sitting in the house all day. It was torrential raining on our way home and now the sun is out again. Weird. Almost florida weather here.

[JustPeachy]

Great report Shawna!! Super exciting!! Glad everything went perfect!

[hannah01]

hi rachael. i miss you guys too - i am so behind. simon is actually going through a really good phase right now and sleeping a lot. i hope this lasts!

amy - oh my gd, i just saw the thread about your kidney stones. that must have been awful - i hope you are doing much better now.

hi josee!

[dndtaylor]

Trust me girls. Not all the time do I have extra energy. I think because DH is gone I’ve got to do something with my time so I’ve been running around a lot these days and finding things to keep myself occupied. Tonight I’m excited because the girls and I are going to dinner and then to the “Hustler” store (if you know what I mean). I love going to that place and walking around (maybe making a purchase *wink wink*), there is some funny and interesting stuff and people I must say. I’m up for going to a movie but there really isn’t anything out that catches my fancy, so maybe a stop at the video store since I didn’t rent anything last weekend. Tomorrow I plan on doing housework and homework for a good chunk of the day. I wanted to go to a few thrift stores and garage sales just to see if there was anything I couldn’t live without. It’s like going to a treasure hunt or something?

Rachael next week will be fine. We are just trying to get an idea of what is available in the area and such. DH will be in GA late Sept so that is when we would be interesting in actually getting something on paper. Just window shopping for now.

Shawna great report, Thanks DH for keeping us updated.

Kris glad you had a great time with your mom. We missed you and would love to see some new pictures of Simon when you get a chance.

Ugh, it’s 200 on a Friday and I’m so ready to leave. My mind is wondering on anything and everything not work related. I think I’ll scam the system and not take my lunch until 300 that way I can leave early for the day. HEHEHE, I’m a genius.

[hopeful2bmom]

Hi Kris! Your mountain retreat sounds wonderful!!! Glad Simon is sleepping throught the night. I hope it lasts for you too!
If I could get comfortable enough to sleep then bedrest would be a dream!

The baby is in a weird position and it hurts to lie on either side or sit for too long...

Shawna- great report! That is awesome!

So when will you know how many days for the transfer?

I am so tired. Wish I could sleep. It's really nice outside right now.

Devan-Don't you mean 1400 and 1500? hehehe Millitay time. I used to work in the medical field and we use military time...
I hope you have a good weekend!

Susan have you tried all the pillow tricks? One between the knees and one under the tummy?

Of course, this is coming from someone that took a vicoden (for the chest pain) and a tylenol pm and still tossed and turned all night.

I have pillows everywhere! Behind me wedged into my back, between my knees under my arm... Nothing works. I am having major pains on my side and back. I can;t tell what it is. My OB is not on call but he told me to call with any changes, but honestly, I am too tired to call anyone!!!

[JustPeachy]

I just got a call from my vet. Cooper lump biopsy came back as malignant I'm devastated. He's only 5. My older boxer was 9 when she was diagnosed. I was so in shock I couldn't even ask questions. I was just too upset. The vet is going to call me back tomorrow. They want me to do surgery to remove the two tumors I can see and search for more The vet wants to put together an estimate. URGH. I am so sad. I can't even call dh b/c he is at work and I know he would start crying. I called my mom bawling and she started crying too. I'm trying not to get too hysterical till I hear all the details tomorrow. Cooper is so kind to Aiden. I just thought they would grow up best friends together I have to stop typing b/c I'm just crying even more now...

[parker john]

omg Rachael ... i am so sorry ... would any treatments help him out or do you not want him to go through that pain? i am so so sorry for you ...
