So Last night I took my last dose of clomid for this cycle. My OB upped my dosage to 100mg and now we just need to monitor when I ovulate so we can make sure we appropriately time everything. I am so hoping this will work! We are lucky that Hubbs has next week off from work, so we will have plenty of time for humping it out passionate love making. hahaha if this is successful I would be due at the end of may (23-25ish), which is about 5 weeks before school ends. I could make it for almost the whole school year, which for the kids is ideal.
My summer at home with sweet Ben is wrapping up as well, as I go back to work monday. We have had many big milestones this summer!! Ben is sleeping in a toddler bed AND he is fully potty trained! I was told by so many people that he would just not be ready until after he was 3, and here he is, not even 2 and a half and he is fully trained! YES! So pumped. He is just my big boy now!
We are all excited to get back into the regular routine, and Ben really misses the other kids from the sitter's. He asks for them on a daily basis. So it is crunch time, time to finish up some projects from Pinterest that I started and get my school year going.
I am feeling really positive about this cycle and can wait to see the results!!
Round 2 of Clomid begins tomorrow. Awaiting a call from My Dr. to see how to proceed.
I just... I don't even know yet.
And so the crazy making continues!
I am currently about 8 DPO and I of course had to break out a test this morning since my temps were still so high, but i only had a digital test. It of course came up not pregnant, but being the official crazy person that i am, I decided to pull the test strip out to see if there was any line at all, and of course there was a light second line. This is not uncommon for digitals, as they detect not only HCG the pregnancy hormone, but also the presence of LH which occurs when you ovulate. Some people however have seen these two lines and had a neg. digi, but were still pregnant. See the crazy maker!! It's not my fault!! hahaha
Anyway, I am going to buy some pink dye cheapy tests tonight and retest tomorrow. In the mean time.... the crazy making continues!!
08/08/08- I married my best friend. Today we celebrate 4 years married and 7 years together. In those 7 years, we both graduated university, we have moved 3 times, bought a house, got our dog Kona, lost a baby, welcomed our son to the world, and are now trying to have more babies. It has been a busy 7, but the most wonderful in the whole world. I can't imagine my life without the Hubbs. He is my rock, my confidant, my very best friend and the person I can't do without. I love you babe!! Here's to many, many more years. xoxoxox
What an amazing night we just had!
OMG!!
One of my besties was married last night and it was an amazingly beautiful wedding. The love that V and L share is infectious. Hubbs and I danced the night away with all our dearest friends and we all had a blast. I basically was a basket case from the time V walked down the aisle until the speeches were over. Cried like a baby.
I am so very thrilled for my friends, they are amazing!!!
I have had an amazing week! My sister in law delivered a new baby boy in the wee hours of the morning Thursday, and Saturday My sister delivered a new baby girl!! All mama's and babies are doing wonderful! I am so very thrilled for them! I have already been lucky enough to snuggle my nephew "Ervin", and will get the pleasure of meeting my sweet niece "Emily" in October when my sister comes home. I absolutely cannot wait. It was a great week!
Clomid Update: Ok so the last 2 days have been pretty good on a whole. Yesterday I had mega hot flashes, and today I am dizzy dizzy dizzy. It just came on after supper. Strange, but if this gets me pregnant, it is so worth it.
On completely separate issues, today a small bird flew into our sliding glass door!! I heard a loud thunk on the glass, looked over and saw feathers floating everywhere. I went out onto the deck to investigate and saw the poor thing upside down, flapping one wing. It was pitiful looking :( I picked it up and it's head was rolling around, so I figured that it probably broke it's neck. It couldn't even chirp anymore, and just laid there looking at me trying to make noise. I held it until it made one last weak noise and closed it's eyes and went to heaven. It was so sad. I buried it in our flower bed.
ANNNNDDD I cried. my eyes out. What else was I supposed to do?
Ok, so doctor's appointment was good. I got my bloodwork results back and they showed that my male hormones (androgens) were slightly elevated. Hubb's checked out just fine, and I am being treated as a PCOS patient for my lack of ovulation.
I am beginning my Clomid tonight. I take 50mg starting on CD 2-6 and then 5-10 days later I should Ovulate! Wow. it could really happen this month.
I am almost overwhelmed about this.
I will update as I take the clomid and as I chart this cycle to see if anything looks different!!
SO PUMPED!
