It's Official!!!!
Well I got the call . . .
for the first time ever I was looking forward to the call and not dreading it!
The nurse said they like to see it over …
I'm 40, my DH is 39 and we've been TTC since we got married 4 years ago. I'm a children's therapist and work with children who have emotional and/or behavioral problems. It's especially hard right now - I'm always around young children, pregnant moms, families, etc. I'm working hard to stay positive and to be hopeful! DS (and the people I've "met" here) have been very helpful to me in doing this. As I hope for others, I find my own hope is renewed.

My 4-legged babies (we have three dogs - 2 Rottweilers and a Jack Russell - and a cat). Everyone else in my home seems to get pregnant easily! My dog has actually had 29 babies since we started trying - and I still don't have one! (We breed Rottweilers and have had 3 litters over the past couple years.) Even the stray cat who adopted us has had 2 litters - a total of 8 babies! We spend a lot of time renovating our home. I love to read when I have time and music keeps me going. We love to travel, but between the house and medical bills, it's not in the cards right now!

We were at the store yesterday . . . and I hesitated to mention to DH that I wanted to pick up a couple more HPTs . . . I wanted to try a different …
Saturday morning's test . . . another quick, strong plus sign . . . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Todd got home late last night . . . he's excited, but …
OK, so as you might recall . . . I am an HPT junkie. Have been since this all started . . . can't help myself . . . have no desire to go …
That does seem so far away but it will be here before you know it! :-)
Yes, I need to rearrange some of the rooms so I can get around with crutches. I also need to put some things near the bed and couch and try and find a fanny pack... hahaha! I am not sure how I will do with the crutches b/c one of my shoulders is dislocated, but I had cortisone shots in it a few weeks ago so hoping for the best! I am a little nervous but after the pain I've had in the foot and knee this weekend I really want it over with so I can start healing and hopefully no more pain! :-)
WOW! What GREAT numbers!!! I am so thinking multiples!! I heard that if you have multiples your pregnancy symptoms can be stronger too. I am so happy for you! When is your first u/s?
So happy to see that your beta just keeps on doing its thing the way it should!!! So happy for you!!!!
You are a sweetie...I have been/am feeling really good! No stress yet :) and I have an ultimate frisbee tournament today - perfect distraction! I will let you know when things change. I hope you have a great pregnant Saturday!
Yes, I remember being really tired. It gets better in the second trimester and then you get tired again!
Idiopathic (unknown) female infertility . . . so the main suspect (by default) is that I'm old (reproductively speaking, that is!) :) IVF #1 was Nov '07 - complete failure . . . 10 eggs, nothing developed normally, all arrested . . . nothing to transfer . . . devastating! We changed doctors & labs . . . and made another attempt late Sept/October 08. We were much more successful, transfered a blast & 2 morulas but got the dreaded BFN. Now we're on to round 3 & hoping the 3rd times the charm!
