my weekend was great. I stayed home and relaxed. Yeah i know what you mean by huge healthy "monster" eggs. DH and I live Brooklyn NY.
Not seeing RE or specialist. My regular OB/GYN put me on clomid. I told her I wanted to get preggo, she told me try this for 3 months and if it doesnt work she will refer me to specialist. I ovulate on my own but sporadically and you know thats not good for TTC so she had to give me something.
Its funny how we try so hard in our first years of lovemaking to NOT get preggo, then when we do want to we gotta jump thru hoops, and perform "balancing acts" no pun intended.
I also had a psychic tell me I would be a mother, but dont let her tell u two and she really means two sets of twins! LOL!
Either way, lets enjoy this ride because when these little bad butt kids get here, we gonna be saying "....i actually ASKED for morning sickness and swollen feet?" LOL....laughing my butt off.
This is for all of us, regardless of spiritual background:
It occured to me yesterday for some reason that me and DH should pray before and after BD. I know we always put faith in all we do, but I want to make my intentions known to God before and after, because this is a gift from god they say. I figure, why not talk directly to the "higher power" and at least ask for patience if not a miracle. not in a self-righteous sort-of-way, but in a God, you know all that I am going through and all thats in my heart, and if its your will, please allow me to bring a life here that will magnify your name, and prove to the non-believers that there is a God, whatever name you choose a reference is up to you.
I pray for all of us, not for us to necessarily get what we want....but to be blessed and enjoy the magnificence that is womanhood...this special gift and ability that we as women were selected to be endowed with by the Supreme Creator...the ability to give life....this world is filled with things that block the blessing of this gift...whether it be the stress that delays O, the pollution in the air that causes us to miscarry, whatever.
I pray that God removes all those obstacles, replaces our fears with love and great expectation, and as promised wipes every tear from our eye. For all my sisters who are home alone with no children to look after and love, suffering loss of the womb, and trial, I pray for all of us in the name of divine womanhood, and the holiness of our mothers wombs, I pray for us. In the name of the Most High, Amen. As we will it, so shall it be. Amen.
How are you!!?? I am great today...Have a minute before heading off to work and wanted to drop you a quick note..
First of all, I love the prayer that you wrote yesterday.. It was so beautiful and I thank you for that! I'm not really religious and found it so touching... ~hugs~
Your note made me howl!!! You are probably right, that psychic probably meant twins and didn't want to scare me! I would have been scared then but now I say bring them on!!! I mean, it would be my life as I know it upside down but, I am ready for the change... So many nights I feel a bit bored and sad b/c I feel as though I should be chasing around a todler or getting a little one ready for bath time... I figure that if I had twins, I would eventually figure out a routine or plan? Nah, it would be crazy and I am sure I will be shaking my head!!!
So...really excited b/c this am I went to see my fertility dr and I have 2 big eggs developing and 2 med size! I go back in a couple of days to see what the size is! Chances are you have biggy eggs too! Where are you in your cycle? I hope you and DH did the bd every TWO days not every day... Important..
Anyway, have to get dressed and go but wanted to say hello and have a great day!
Again, where have all the other ladies disappeared too? Drop us a line, hope you are all doing well!
How are you feeling today? Good news about those eggies- I see theyre getting moving. I feel very positive for you.
Im 4DPO, and sad to say, I think the clomid gave me a yeast infection (sorry tmi). the only time I ever had one was 9 years ago after antibiotics, so I dont know...
yeah we had fun a few days before my peak time, then we only BD EOD for the peak time. Im kinda ambivalent about this cycle, I would like to get BFP this cycle but I dont have a problem with trying again...for some reason DH used TTC as an excuse to be a bad boy.LOL! any other time I have to wait until UFC fighting goes off for him to give me some tlc. LOL!
and by the way, my strategy of relaxing worked. i took my time to do EVERYTHING, even if it didnt need to take that long, and i found this kept my nerves calm, because you know waiting to O and BD can make one a bit anxious. also, martinellis sparkling apple cider in a wine glass seems to make me giddy :)
Im sending you an e-glass of sparkling cider (no alcohol) Cheers, Lisa!
How are ya? I've had a busy weekend being our Thanksgiving... I love this time of year! So today is actually Thanksgiving Monday so it is a holiday.. lovely!
I will gladly take a glass of sparkling cider! In fact, I should pick some up... When you are TTC or better yet pg, it is hard to socialize and not partake if you know what I mean! It was my 1st anniversary this w/e too! DH and I stayed in a beautiful hotel that is like old world style? Fireplace in the bedroom, jacuzzi tub... gorgeous! We had to bd b/c it was day 14 of my cycle and you know how technical that can be...With the propping up and preseed..not overly romantic! Oh well! I would love it if we conceived there...on our first anni... Anyway, I had one glass of wine at dinner which I don't think is too bad? do you? and a couple of sips of champagne... Trust me it could have been a lot worse!!! We were in wine country and I would have a lot more wine which I love!
So anyway, had a really nice weekend...How are you doing? When is af due? Although she IS NOT going to come this time!! How have you been feeling? Oh I"m so excited to hear about any possible news!!! I don't know about you but I love this time of year..It is fall here and I LOVE fall! I think a better chance to conceive for me b/c our summers are so hot and sticky I can't stand it! Where do you live? What is the weather like for you right now?
Well...my coffee is ready and I am ready for it! Hmmmm...coffee isn't really good either when TTC are you drinking it? if so how much? I've cut down anyway..Right now it is necessary!
