I think I may need to have a car wash to pay for all of this. LOL! I have to keep my humor or I have nothing.

I hope you all are feeling well and getting through the injections, the wait, the anticipation, etc.

sweetie, i am glad that your DH will be there for you. i will keep you in my prayers. do you have someone there for a shoulder until DH comes home?

is there a reason why she said that you will not be able to try again this year. - you should be able to do the karotyping once your beta hits zero and then the results come in 4 - 6 weeks and then you can start again... or is there something else that she wants you to do. not that i am pushing you to start again, but it has been one of the things that has helped me deal with everything. please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers

I don't know why we would have to wait so long. Maybe with the D&C, AF, testing, etc. there just isn't enough time. My nurse said we could probably squeeze one in. I'm going with her thoughts and not the RE's.

Not really anyone here I can talk to. I think the tear well is dried up for now. I know that tomorrow will be difficult, and the RE said that afterwards I will crash emotionally. Looking forward to that!! When DH gets home things will be better.

Jana - why can't you try again this year? Unless she has a good reason, I would get a second opinion on that. Like Jamie said, that would keep my hope alive. Continuing to pray for you and I'm glad Pat will be home tonight.

I think she's just covering her bases. I'm not worried. My nurse is awesome....she'll get me in there if possible.

i would stick with what your nurse said as well, i was only 8 weeks but my beta was zero within two weeks, you may have to wait a little longer then you have the testing, 4-6 weeks, and then you can start... i like the idea of your nurse.

and i understand that the tear well is dry, have you found yourself randomly just starring at your walls. looking back, i wish i would have wrote some of the things i was going thru down, just to get it out. i am glad your DH will be home tonight, take comfort in each other's strength

It may sound silly, but I sat down last night a wrote a letter to our unborn child. I know it wasn't a baby yet, but to us it was. I just needed to get all my feelings out.

Jana- thinking of you

Jamie- I'm glad that you are starting your BCPs again

Liza- good to hear from you

Ladies, my summer is over. I start inservice for FIVE days tomorrow. My baby is starting kindergarten next friday. Boo hoo...

No news from me, I'll probably wait until the beginning of Sept to bother/e-mail my social worker to see what's going on.

Ladybuglee · #**1843** (**permalink**) 08-13-2008, 01:27 PM

Hi Sarah! In-service sucks...I've got 2 1/2 more weeks before school starts.

Jamie - the crazy thing is, I have GAINED WEIGHT. WTH???? I'm walking and eating great. It's crazy (and it stinks!). But the important thing is my bloodsugar levels are much better.

Jana - I believe babies are babies before they are even thought of by you!

Hope everyone else is well.

jana · #**1844** (**permalink**) 08-13-2008, 01:33 PM

Liza, have you done measurements? Don't think just because you've gained you haven't lost inches. Maybe your putting on muscle.

Nope no measurements. I don't need any more muscle, ugh! It's depressing but I'm not too upset since the goal is to get lower blood sugar readings and that's working. We'll see!
