Amy and Tia- Wishing you awesomeness at your appointments today!
Martie- Try not to fret. Anythign for a healthy baby right?! My SIL ended up with GD so bad with the twins she had to give herself shots three times a day, but if you ask her, it was worth it every stick, every carefully planned out meal. It will be worth it for you too!  Rach- Glad you had a wonderful anniversary!!  Hi to everyone!

Amy, I second Jen. I think they'll ask you soon enough. And if you are wanting to share, then share. If you think they'll handle it well and it won't impact how they treat you then go ahead. I bet you look so cute. Good luck again today.
Rachael, sounds like that anniversary went super well. Was it hard on you to be without Aiden a whole night or was it heaven (not that you don't totally love him to pieces!!!)? I think breaks are great. You sound so happy. YAY!!! Martie, I hope you make the next test and your body autocorrects itself. When will you get those resutls? Hi Shawna!

Josee, they are not even having me take the 3 hours test because their cut off is 140 and my results were 250 so I am just moving on to the diet consult.

Martie, you can only do the best you can. The rest is out of your hands. I
you have a safe delivery of a very healthy baby girl. I always feel like when I post, everyone runs away...

josee, good point. actually i think they will be so happy and excited! i have a pretty amazing connections with about 90% of my students. in fact, they will probably be a lot more understanding of my limits and want to help. kids can be sweet like that! maybe next week? i was thinking of playing "hang man" on the chalk board and have it say "guess what? i am having a baby!"

Newbee...
Hi everyone,
I am new to this site and wanted to introduce myself. Like many of you that I've read about here, I've had a rough year of TTC. Who would've thought that starting a family would be so tough?? I just had a D&C in February and am still recovering emotionally. The first few weeks are the worst but then you just start focusing on trying again. It seems the hormonal imbalance is what really did a number on me. Quick question, my D&C was on February 5th and I have yet to see any sign of AF. It was 7 weeks on Tues (will be 8 this coming Tues) but more then that, there are no signs. A few have mentioned on other threads that there is something you can be given to stimulate it...anyone know anything about this? I have my first appt with an RE on April 8th to check for issues. My OB didn't lead me that way, I am doing it on my own. I am afraid for my own mental health to lose another pregnancy so I want to be better monitored for the next one. I'd love to hear what to expect and what questions to ask since some of you seem to have already gone that route. Thanks so much and I look forward to getting to know everyone better.  Bridget

Bridget- Welcome. I'm sorry for all your losses! I wish you all the very best in the future!
Ladies, Dh's appointment is on Monday. I'm not sure they fit him in because he complained enough or because it's a very serious thing. But at least we have an appointment. now to just get to monday without going insane!

I hope so too. If not, at least I see my RE in a couple of weeks. Hope you're getting lots of rest. That always seems to be the best remedy. Just take it easy for a while.
