Jen, I just KNOW this is it!! Go super-sperm

I think my looking tiny is an illusion caused by the fact that my whole mid section has filled out instead of just a bump. It may have smething to do with my uterus being tilted backwards from the norm. But I feel good reading all of your 'tiny' comments

Amy, the inner anger sounds familiar to me. I get it all to well. I am glad DH came around and is bringing you out. What will you see? Those poor kids! It is hard I am sure, but making them accountable is the best thing for them. Um yeah I put things off like exercise for months......

Heidi, I would do the xrays now while you can. I vote for the big V! I wish I could have one some days!

Ronni, good luck on all of your testing next Thur.

Devan I know you do not want to hear it, but I would totally skip the ice. It is not as bad as you think. Warm the oil first and then heat and massage after.you can do it!!!

Devan my Dr. suggest flicking the skin where the shot is to go in I guess this numbs it for a short time so you do not feel the needle go in. Is your DH putting the meds in slowly. I know that when DH did it for me if he put the meds in too fast I would get a big lump and bruising. To be honest with you I never used anything to numb the area and hardly felt any kind of pain when the needle went in. It did hurt sometimes if DH put the meds in too fast but as long as he went slow I felt nothing. Now I know it is probable just the thought of the shot but trust me when I say that you can only feel it for like a sec when the needle goes in after that it is past the part of the skin that has feeling and you cannot feel it anymore.

Yes, the rubbing when itching is AMAZING. It feels soooo good. Awww, relief. I guess I'll just have to keep playing around until I figure out what works for me. I hope tonights ritual works out for me, we will see when I go to sleep, it usually takes few for the lump to form. LOL - I'm a nut!

So guess who is working tomorrow, yep you guessed it, ME! Bright and early at 730, poop. How disappointed am I right now? Oh well, it is the miltary I guess I can't complain too much. So I'm cooking a pizza for dinner. I found out that lunch today of Chicken noodle soup worked out quite well for me.

Robin I'd love to "rent" your doppler, I'm PM you. Thanks for the offer. Your little man, is adorable.

Lots of chatting tonight. My head still feels like its ten sizes too big but I think its a little better than this morning.

Jen, I'll be thinking of you tomorrow morning. What are all those meds you will be taking in the 2ww?? Do they help with implantation etc?? I have so much to learn about all these drugs, I know my RE mentioned a few of them to me in passing but I didn't pay much attention. Let me know, I might ask my RE if its stuff I should be trying.

My DH has gone out to dinner with friends. I was supposed to be going too but looking and feeling the way I do it just wasn't possible. So now I'm feeling completely neglected and lonely...I HATE having a cold.

It was a very cheesy movie and I don't feel that Hilary Swank was the right choice for that role.
I do know one girl that liked and and said she cried. I did not shed a tear and i am pregnant!

Check out the reviews on rottentomatoes...

.

Alana-I am only doing HCG shots during the 2ww. This is supposed to trick your body into thinking it is pregnant and thus produce its own progesterone. Once I am pg, the RE will put me on antibiotics to make sure no infection causes a m/c, heparin in the slight chance that I have a blood disorder that isn't detectable by the current tests...there are still plenty out there, the progesterone derivative-supposed to help with the embie getting comfy and also hopefully prevent m/c. All these things are being done in the hopes of preventing m/c.

No Outback for us tonight DH doesn't 'feel well', but is happily watching basketball in the basement. Grrrrr.

I'll ask Derrick how fast or slow he is putting the meds in. We will figure it out ... of course it will be when it is too late. I'm about to watch Grey's Anatomy from last night and then call it a night. I'm beat. Any big weekend plans for anyone? I hope we can leave early tomorrow so that I can catch the Seahawks game.

G. A. was good last night.
No big plans here. DH and DS are down in MS hunting at their favorite hunting camp. DD and I are here with my 2.5 yearold nephew, 9 year old neice, and 6 year old neice watching George of the Jungle. They are sleeping over and hanging out tomorrow.
