haha well I can tell you right next door...Vermont...is where all the people with no teeth live I'm not sure where the rich people you are talking bout live...I'm used to having grown up in CA though where every house was over a million $....so to me out here it is pretty cheap haha. Now you'd think everyone here WAS rich here since the price of milk has gone up to about $5 a gallon!! Damn I'm just gonna buy a cow! It would be cheaper!

Steph, love the map. I've been to New Hampshire before! Spent lots of time skiing in Vermont. Haven't done that in a while with all this fertility stuff. I'm looking forward to the commercials as well and Tom Petty. How bout you? I'm guessing you're a patriots fan? I'm a Giants fan by association. My DH is all over that. He thinks that he helps them play better when he watches the game. Loyal fan, huh?
Not a Tom Petty fan Chriss...personally I think he sounds like he's taking a crap when he sings FFRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE FAAAALLLLLIIING....UUUMMPH!
Yup a Pats fan...undefeated baby!!! 1/2 hr to go!!!!

I'm back from IUI. DH had the LOWEST sperm count yet. Very depressing. We go back tomorrow For #2. They have us do 2 because of low sperm count and morphology, etc. We know it's low, that's why we are usually doing IVF with ICSI. Re said they have seen pregnancies from IUI with low counts like this, so it is possible. Hard to keep up the PMA, but I will. This is the longest, toughest trying time in my life. I know you can relate. We have consult appointment made for next cycle. Want to be ready for IVF if the miracle doesn't happen this month.
Ok, now you only need 1...well really 4 cuz you are gonna have a litter like Mia and 4 eggies need 4 spermies. And you have another go at it tomorrow so you keep up the PMA just like Jen...who I SELFISHLY didn't even acknowlegde her PMA in my last post....SORRY JEN! I SUCK!!!! Please forgive me!!
Hey Steph,
I'm at home for superbowl too. My DH went to his brother's house but I didn't feel like going along for the 2 hr. drive up there and the 2 hr drive back home. Have to do the IUI thingy early tomorrow. (DH is driving back tonight, hope his sperms aren't too tired tomorrow) So I'll be on the couch like you, watching and checking in here and there. Lap top is on the fritz so I don't have the luxury to sit on couch at check in at same time. Hope work wasn't too grueling today, although you do sound a bit tired. Put yer feet up girl. Hey, I lived in CA for about 6 1/2 years, in San Francisco. CA is a big state, where were you??? What moved you to NH?
We moved back to Long Island, that's where I am from. The SF stint was for kicks after college. It was a blast. Sometimes I wish I still lived there.

its so great to visualise where every one really lives - have to admit my geography on the US is really bad - I've only been to NY and Miami - although hoping to do a visit to Boston on the end of my Miami trip at Easter (where ever that is on your map!!)
I live "near" Boston...went to school there, lived there for some time! I'm inviting myself to visit with you if you are there during one of my days off!!! You let me know ok

Steph - yeah I know its old news, but congratulations on your job - who wouldn't want you eh!! But do they really know what they are letting themselves in for
Mia and Chriss, hope all went well with your IUI and ET respectively. Chriss, you're absolutely right, sometimes its best to leave the decision to the experts, after all thats what we pay them for. Mia, where are you?
Steph, I see you are back from hell and going to keep everyone entertained.
Sorry, won't be able to do personals as I can barely keep my eyes open (and I def can't catch up with all those pages!!!!). Hope you're all doing ok.
Quick update on me - AF arrived on Friday; right after I told you all that I was going to stop worrying about it. Started my medication and have a scan tomorrow morning to check that there are no cysts and that the lining is nice and thin. Wish I could stop worrying about things. But I suppose thats part of tmt! Anyway, if all goes well, the fun part starts tomorrow (NOT) - stimms. God I dread those injections. Always left me sore last time. But hey, if its going to take me one step closer to achieving our dream of having a baby, so be it.
Good night, and will try to catch up with all tomorrow.

Sorry to disappoint but no white stilettos. Lets just say if I was a sterotypical Essex girl I would never have met you girls 'cos I'd have had a string of kids long before now (all by different fathers, of course)
wow this place sounds like Vermont!
ok gotta go grab some snackies and go potty before the 1st commercial of the night is on!!!! Woo

Love the map, for all you ladies if you find York and go across to the East coast there is a little bump sticking out, that is where i live (Scarborough) the oldest seaside resort in england, 2 beaches with a ruined castle on the headland splitting them up, nice place but always windy. catch you all later.
Jayne
Chirss I don't think I'd wanna do a 2 hr drive for the game either!!!
Funny I was born and raised outside of SF!!! Born in Alameda (near Oakland) and my family still lives there but when I was 5 we moved out to the valley and grew up in Danville???? A lot of famous people lived out there...land of the gated country clubs I called it haha. Never try to invite too many friends over at once or security knew just how to ruin your day
Angel- sorry I misssed ya! but I am happy to hear AF arrived!!! WOW now I think everyone who wanted to see her has had her visit??? So now she can go visit other ladies on other boards right!
Get some rest! I'm having my scan tomorrow too to check on how big my litter can be...but it is day 10 and I don't feel a damn thing!
Steph
oops guess if I read my own stupid ticker I'd see that it was only day 9....BUT STILL!!!!!
Steph, my friend just bought a house in Alameda. I still have many connections in the bay area. Another friend of mine is principal of mill valley elem. I know danville! Wow, small world. My DH and I got married in Napa.
I don't think the good commercials start until after kick off? Maybe???
Sweet...know Alameda like the back of my hand...I went to school there til 3 grade (private school) even after we moved to Danville cuz that was where my parents worked. I know small world eh?? I've only read books about the Hamptons haha....does that count? haha
So far NOT impressed on commercials....though that $100k+ Audi looks nice
The car looked nice but the commercial was lame-ass. Why do I always want to eat so much during superbowl????? Oh yea, thanks for the PMA with the low sperm count. I needed to be reminded that this could work this time.
I'm not sure where the rich people you are talking bout live...I'm used to having grown up in CA though where every house was over a million $....so to me out here it is pretty cheap haha.
