I agree Amy. I also would love for us all to have a reunion of sorts with little ones in our laps while typing.

Hope everyone is doing well! I am off to Pilates in a bit (just got back from Puppy class).

I can't believe it either! Thanks for the baby compliments I had to tell my job on day 1 because I work in a lab and this lab has lots of radiation around (P32). Funny thing was, my boss was excited, and so was everyone else! The radiation safety officer was so excited to have a pregnant lab worker (that is weird, huh?) and she is going to do a special radiation safety brush up for everyone. I won't be working with it directly, or at least doing the labeling (adding the straight concentrated stuff into my samples...someone else will do it for me ). So all and all it was good and much easier than expected.
m/s has NOT passed, unfortunately. Today was pretty bad. I am just so tired all the time and even last night when I was in bed for almost 10 hours, I still get up every 1-2 hours to pee, so that disturbs my sleep. Nausea was pretty bad today

Tam-I just saw your second beta and I had to say that am so happy for you!

Everyone else-I am too wiped for more personals, but am thinking of you.

Good Evening Everyone,

I was so busy today, cousins wedding on Saturday.
I did trigger last night, I was so out of it. Sorry I panicked last night.

Jaime - Thanks I did it subq, I always did that way so I dont know what I was thinking. Thats great you are going to start Jogging. I hope to start jogging in 11 months to lose baby weight. ( girl can dream, right)

Carrie - Thank for the boost of confidence I guess I am being a chicken. Probably from the unknown.

Bob- Awesome info. Thanks I will def. do every step.
As far as NYFD he works almost 2hrs away. I dont think that is possible. Believe me I thought about it.
PS..I know I told dh I am going to be really, extra nice to him while he is giving me shots....LOL

Sarah - thank you

Amy - Thank you, I have been praying to St. Jude, St. Gerard, My Saint,Barbara and every other saint that will listen. I feel the same way about the March IVF I think that thread has the luck we need.

Kate- Puppy Class? Is he learning or you? LOL..

Jen- I hope m/s goes away soon.

Tomorrow is the big day. Wow I cant believe how excited I am. You would have thought I just got the BFP.....LOL...

Barbara- Good luck tomorrow! I will be thinking of you (and FDNY).

Sarah- I like kickboxing too, but I have only done it on video. I am a bit scared to do it in a class setting. I am not that graceful. Running I can only do in small doses.

Jamie- speaking of running... good for you for getting out there. Do you listen to an iPod or anything to pass the time? I get bored so easily.

Jen- that is pretty cool about your work being excited about your pregnancy.

tamtam- yay on that increasing beta number!!

I can just see me in a kick boxing class and me kicking whoever is in the vicinity of me Probably not a good idea for me, huh? I wish I had the energy to go back and do yoga. I know I should be getting my second wind soon, so I'll keep hoping.

Barbara-is ER tomorrow? I can't remember, and I had just looked at your siggie! Whatever, I am thinking about you and sending you all sorts of good wishes and positive vibes.

Hi girls! I am out of town and only have the crackberry. I will update the list when I get back. I just popped in to say, GOOD LUCK BARBARA!!!!! I hope you have some great eggies tomorrow!!!

By the way Jen, I am still tired everyday and feel like I need more sleep. I really think it's the peeing all the time that makes it worse.

Barbara- good luck!

Amy- great news on starting stims soon!!! I am so praying that this will be your !!! I am going to CO just for a day intake - do the infectious disease bloodwork again, meet up with RE, hysteroscopy, etc. The nervous thing is that I've been testing to see if I ovulate and I am already 2 days late, and this day at CO is based on how many days post-AF I am, so now I am freaking out that I won't get AF in time and I'll have to postpone the trip and, well, you get the idea...yes, I should be calm b/c I'm a yoga teacher but I can't help but follow this stress trail to its worst conclusion, you know? Anyway, I know you understand b/c of you having to take time off for the lap, etc..it is sooooo FRUSTRATING!!!!

Leanne - Happy Belated Birthday!!! I hope you won some money...or at least had fun:-)

Okay, so I am seriously stressed by the lack of ovulation here...am like clockwork on day 13 and today is day 14 and nada....so I'm assuming AF will be late. I hate this! Oh well...and DH is away in Massachussetts doing a class for work, so I'm here to obsess alone (which I'm not supposed to be doing this month!).

Happy Hump day everyone!!!
