Goodnight Martie hun, good luck too! I'll be thinking of you tomorrow while I'm going insane at work. I can't wait to hear the great update.

I am going to go cook myself something to eat before I settle down and annoy you all for the night. hehe. I have a huge craving for lambchops (must be a kiwi thing aye Heidi) so I may just have to whip up some of those.

Oh and Jen, can you PLEEEEASSSE share some of your boobies with me?? I wouldn't mind just being a nice C, its a B these days I'm afraid. Hey, you have an entire cup size to give away!

Alana, there goes my theory on not jossling the embryos. Interesting article. I guess the slouching on the couch for the last few days might not have been beneficial. Then again, I'm very fidgety by nature, so that may have helped. Also I'm a maniac when I sleep, all over the place. I twitch and itch for at least an hour before I can relax and fall sleep and then DH wakes up and I'm sprawled out like a starfish and he's on the edge of the bed.
Also that article makes me feel better about the itchy little constant cough I've had as I've been nervous about the movement from coughing.

Grits, how old was your brother's little boy when they got him and do you know how long the process took? I hear it can be a year or two with all the paperwork and social worker visits. He must be a cutie and I love the name Mateo.

Alana, don't worry you're not the only one with little B's. Before Stella I was a perky B-cup and after it all I am a lack-luster barely B girl. Don't really need a bra at all. My mother told me years ago that she was my size until she had kids and then she got very ample. That didn't seem to work with me. Quite the contrary. I can't complain though.

Heidi-I sleep the same way you do. Poor DH is always falling off the bed with no blankets...

Alana- I have a couple of sizes to give away. I would like to be at a nice healthy barley C. I feel like I am going to topple over with these huge girls!!! I had DH do a boobie check and yep, the report came back as they are bigger (than CD1 of this month)...

Brenna- yay for your good u/s! We're here counting the days until the 29th with you!!!

[JustPeachy]

Jen - I just looked for the overalls and they're gone! I'll look again in a minute. I'm sorry about your crappy day.... it's all hormones. Just keep repeating the mantra and have a good quick cry to feel better! Or maybe a soak in the tub with alcohol and then an ice cream sundae to cool off!!

Alana - You can absolutely have one of my bb cups as soon as Aiden is done with them!

Brenna - Great progress with you too. Very exciting about next week's FET!

Heidi - You sound like me. I started researching how long to stay on bedrest after ET and then read studies about how it can hurt implantation and got nervous! I asked my RE but he said just to take it easy, rest a little, and then go back to normal life. I had a horrible cough and cold right after ET too.

Ok Girls. I am so so confused over here. I was all excited to cook rigatoni and lamb ragu tonight. Normally, by the end of the day, I feel as though I've been the loser in a boxing match. But, today I actually had energy to go to Whole Foods, buy some great produce, get the ground lamb, and even spulged for this fresh tomato and basil sauce that I love. Well, just sauteed up the lamb, added all the fresh veggie, and went to add my fresh sauce. No sauce in the refrig. Hmmm. This is not unusual with my pregnancy brain. I start looking everywhere - the freezer, the car (in case it rolled out), the trash (never know), the recycling bin (grocery bags), the pantry. Nowhere. It is on my receipt but it is nowhere to be found in my entire house!! So weird. I used a backup canned sauce and am still utterly baffled. This is going to bother me all night - or until I forget where I've put something else!

[designdiva32]

hahaha, Rachael, I think maybe you have just had a wee moment of 'glasses in the freezer' don't you think? Either that or it really did roll out of the bag under a car-seat or into the trash. If it were me though, it would definately be found later on in the coat cupboard or some other weird place. I'm a complete ditz like that. Oh and Heidi and Jen, make that a threesome...I also sleep like that. Dh even complains I kick him in my starfish slumber.

I just ate lamb chops. Mmmmm....my tummy is happy

[sunny72]

Well after eating Wendy's for lunch I asked if DH would make a healthy soup for dinner so he made a vege/spinach soup that will really get the system going tomorrow no doubt. So that was healthy but then I had to ruin it by eating some chocolate cake and then mustard and honey pretzels a few hours later. So much for trying not to gain another 10lbs especially when I didn't loose the 10 from last time. Also, I appear to be getting the PIO belly I got last time where I look 5 months pregggers. Either that or it's a premenstrual thing, I always get mega bloaty around this time of the month. I really hope not. Ugh.

Rachael, could the sauce have been accidently left at the store. We have had that happen a few times or otherwise found missing items under the carseat.

DH barely moves in his sleep and when he does, he's usually throwing an elbow in my direction. I could never understand how some people get into the fetal position and stay there until morning.

[designdiva32]

Heidi do you dream alot? I dream pretty vivid dreams, while my DH always says he can't even remember his. I think my kicking and moving is my dreaming. Either that or its the fricken hormones!!!

[jencat215]

still cranky...

[JustPeachy]

The sauce mystery definitely continues. I put the groceries in the back of my SUV so no where for them to roll out. It's got to be a bagging thing. They bag your groceries for you here (I know they don't do that for you Northerners!) and I had a newbie today. She laid the milk and OJ cartons flat in the bag. I thought it would leak all over the car. Whole Food mysteries.... At least I didn't lose the meat! Next thing I'll find a whole pot in the freezer!

I'm the type that sleeps all the way at the very edge of the bed even though we have a king. DH and the doggie get the other 2/3 of the bed! But, lots of vivid dreams lately.

Jen - Now I have to find the overalls to cheer you up!

[sunny72]

Yes, I feel like I dream alot. Very strange and complex, but not like Jens -- no giant hairs.
I have dreams often about trying to get somewhere and I keep getting distracted and people aren't helping. Alot to do with travelling which makes sense because I travelled a lot when I was in my 20's. I'm often very stressed and anxious in the dreams which isn't too different from real life.

[sunny72]

We have to cheer Jen up.

[jencat215]

My dreams are crazy. Sometimes I wake up crying...at least this week I have!

I have put things like the phone, blankets, etc. in the freezer w/o realizing it. I have also put my blanket in the freezer on purpuse cause I like it cold. In fact, it is in there now. I have even put a box of tampons in the fridge... I must really not pay attention when putting away groceries!

[GRITS]

Oh Jen, I read to quickly before... I am so sorry you had a crappy day. It is over now you can hide and hope for a better tomorrow.

Heidi, It did take a while, the birth mother was pg when they started and they did not get him home until he was 13 months old! He was in foster care with a family while they waited for the paper work.

Rachel, Sadly enough I have done the same thing!
