MzVee, good luck on Tuesday!

Ona, stay strong on week #2!

Becca, hope the cyst goes soon...

Not much new on my front, except cramps! Also a lot of ovary-soreness.

Other than that, a not wonderful weekend. My computer is dying so I can only have it on for 15 minutes at a time (so frustrating!), I failed to find a bday gift for my mother, and my brother is ill enough with a mystery ailment that I had to go over there and feed him toast as he had not eaten in 2 days. Suffice it to say, if he's no better by tomorrow, I may be skipping work to take him in to be seen. On the upside, it was gorgeous weather all weekend, and I enjoyed reading in the sun.

Thanks Jen! I'm hanging tough...10dpiui today so if I want to I can test in just four days...I think I might but I'm starting to feel a bit pessimistic.

Sorry your weekend was so crap. What the heck is going on with your computer?! And mystery illness does not sound good. Just be careful and don't you get sick too. I hope your brother feels better soon.

So I had a crazy wierd dream that I was pregnant with triplets but that only the people who know about my IUI knew I was pregnant and before I could tell everyone, I started getting huge and I was worried they'd be hurt that I hadn't told them... then everyone started figuring out I was preggo and news spread like wildfire, but noone seemed upset.

The second part of the dream was even wierder...we all decided to watch a movie during the party and it had Russell Crowe and the blonde nurse girl from ER and it was about two soulmates who find each other in past during cowboy/frontier times and get married, have a gazillion kids and build a wealth empire by making soap...in present day the man reincarnates as his past self's great great great grandson but he and soulmate in present split up because he doesn't want kids... totally bizarro.

Haha you may very well be pregnant. I never had baby dreams during the tww until I was actually pregnant (but did not know it) Ona - i am going to send you a pm!
Jen - sorry your brother is sick and no luck w/ the gift for your mom.
was it grandparent's day in Canada yesterday? I found myself apologizing to my mom yesterday on the way over to my brother's house (he has 3 kids)

HAPPY MONDAY!

Ona, I always got pessimistic around day 10 too... hang in there! You will be pregnant just when you are certain you aren't!

DeeDee, according to my calendar (I had to look it up) it was Grandparents' Day yesterday here, yes. It's not something anyone I know here actually observes though! No grandparents in my family anyway... though I hope to be changing that right now!

Well, no middle of the night phone call from my brother, so I hope that is a good sign. Thankfully whatever it is does not look infectious...

I really really do not want to be at work right now, but at least the computer here works! My new computer for home should be arriving any day now (please let it be soon!).

Thanks for your encouragement ladies. I guess this is all part of the TWW rollercoaster. Now that I actually have tests in my cupboard, the hardest thing is telling myself it's waaay to early to test. I only have a hard time with this first thing in the morning though as I've convinced myself that when I test it will have to be FMU. Yes, I'm truly cracking up. Have I mentioned I hate waiting?

YAY JEN! I'm glad you're getting a new computer and glad you didn't get any emergency calls from your bro. Maybe it's just food poisoning or something?

Yes, it's all part of the 2ww fun times! Even I don't test until 12dpiui, and I'm an obsessive tester... and I do that FMU talk too... Hang in there, you are almost there!

Don't know what it is, probably stomach-related but he doesn't feel ill at all, just feeling pain. Thought at first kidney stone (he's almost as prone to them as I am) but the pain wasn't near that bad and in the wrong place, you know? Plus I tested his urine ( ) and no blood.. I just talked to him though and he says it's getting better, so I likely won't have to drive him to emergency... whew!

I can't wait until the new computer comes. I'm absurdly excited!

[nursegirl0506]

Sorry I am not on much. It seems all i do is work , sleep and throw up! Still having major issues with the Morming Sickness. While the Phenegren helps it doesnt make it completely go away. I go for 10 week u/s on wednesday so I will have new pic up! I hope everyone is doing well. And please understand that right now with everything going on and I am NOT having a good first trimester, I am not trying to ignore you guys .TO everyone in their TWW.. My thoughts and prayers are with you!!
Teri!! YEAH I am so excited for you TWINS!!! woohoo. I hope everyone is having a wonderful Monday and will hopefully talk to you all soon!

[silverbrumby]

Ok, so I caved in and couldn't take it anymore...

No, I didn't POAS... I called the doc and asked if they could tell me what the sperm count was of my IUI sample.

It's been nagging on my brain, and while I know that knowing will just mean it's one more thing to obsess over, not knowing was making me CRAZY!

So they're gonna call me back in a few and let me know. The nurse was super funny... she was all 'so hooooow you feeling???" (with that tone like she KNEW I was going nuts) and I confirmed her suspicions by lamenting how much I hated waiting. She asked me about my symptoms and I said that pretty much anything on the list of prometrium side effects, I've got it!

I also told her about the sharp needle-like pains and she said that was a "good pain" as it isn't really something the prometrium can cause, and it is a common pain that happens with implantation ! Ok, trying not to get too excited over that.

Gosh I wish I just had superdooper x-ray vision so I could look inside my uterus and see what is or isn't going on in there... grrr.... where's superman when you need him?

oh nursegirl i sure hope you get to feeling better soon! hang in there. maybe a hard first trimester means an easier second?

[silverbrumby]

Ok, I'm actually glad I called... 56Mil count with 37% motility... the vials are only guaranteed for 20mil and 35% motility so the nurse said that was EXCELLENT! Now I am a little more hopeful again.

[lilac]

Nurse, I hope you feel better really soon... here's hoping you will have a wonderful 2nd trimester.

Ona, I can see you are going crazy... I just knew you would love the 2ww. The little pains could very well be a good sign... but they could also be nothing. I have had every positive sign in the book but no bfp, so don't trust anything you feel or don't feel... there's no way to know for sure (one way or the other) till it's time to test. Hang in there! You can do this! You waited so long already, you can wait a little longer. I will be interested to see what your counts were.

I started my prometrium today, no side effects so far...
