hrobinson: Yep, I mean it :) You would be the first cyber-friend I have ever met in person! What city do you live in? You said 400 miles away??? And yeah I do feel grateful knowing the m/s is a good sign. I just hate being so lazy! I feel a bit useless! I am praying tonight for peace before your surgery and for God' to guide the doc's hands!!

Indie: Dont say SIX months! You poor thing! I feel so luck that I dont have to go to work everyday. But I bet if I was busier I would feel better - sometimes I thnk I am imagining my symptoms :shock: (at least that is what dh is trying to tell me) Sorry AF isnt here yet - We all know God's timing is always perfect - so take a deep breath and know that He is in charge!

Chriss: Ooo praying for the fourth one to pick up. Please God grow the eggs that are in Chriss's follies to maturity. I pray that she will get her dream this cycle. Grow her closer to you during this difficult time Lord. Send reminders into her life that You love her and knew her before she was created. Amen.

To bed for me. I am tryign to find a job right now. Can ya'll pray that something opens up? I am struggling with feeling very useless b/c I am not bringing in much money this semester. Thanks sisters ;)

Well, I am home from surgery. Everything went well. The doctor only had to remove one polyp...which was weird becuase on Monday she thought there were many more. However, she did find a large unkown mass, so she took a sample of it and is sending it in to be biopsied. She said she is sure it is benign, but just wants to make sure. Why can't I jus tbe normal and have NO female problems.

Mia- I live in Iowa park, which is close to Wichita falls, or you could say I am 15 miles from the Oklahoma boarder.
We come to SA because I had heard wonderful things about Dr. Robert Schenken. So, I have always said the vacation is good for us...expensive but good.
I will probably give you a ring whne I am in town. How cool that would be to meet up. You will be.....4 months pregnant at that point :D Would love to see the big belly :D

Well, I better go get dinner started. It has to marinate for a few hours. So....
I hope everyone else is doing well.

OHH- Kildean- is your ultrasound tomorrow?

The kids know that those are the only 3 shows (well, plus Jon and Kate +8 ) that I watch. My 4 year old said at the dentist office yesterday "what does that sign say" and I said "It says Dr. ***". He said, "it's not Dr. Scrubs"? LOL

I always go in to my room after bathtime and I say I'm watching Scrubs and then I'll tuck you all in and read you stories. So they've got to where they know Scrubs LOL Even asked my MIL if she watched Scrubs like momma did.....she probably thinks that I'm sitting here eating bon bons and watching TV all day LOL but it's not always bon bons, sometimes it's girl scout cookies hahaha.

Real quick post - I'm working long hours this week and I'm so tired already!!

hrobinson - Praise God that the surgery went well! I'm sure the mass is nothing to worry about. God is in control!!

Mia - Praying for a job that suits you perfectly!

Indie - AF will be here before you know it.

Kildean - can't wait to hear about your scan on Friday

Chriss - how you doing on your stims? Praying for more strong follies!!

Hi everyone else... thinking of you and praying for you daily.

Real quick for me - AF came a day early, so I went in for my eval early (today) and started stimming this evening. Next appt is Sat am. (0700!! on a Saturday!) Everything is looking ok right now. Pray for good follies for me. I hope to have several to chose from, I tend to respond well to the meds, but you never know.

hugs!!

Okay, time for the update post ladies :)

I see that Kildean has updated everyone....and way to go!!! On the ball too, ultrasound and you posted the same day!!! Did you borrow the nurses Internet connection LOL Now go celebrate....and change that ticker! Oh and how are those PIO's going?

Mia: how are you doing? Any more lightheaded feelings? Still feeling that there are 2 beans instead of 1? I can't wait for your next ultrasound....praying that you're feelings are correct. Has your husband let it sink in yet? How many again did you transfer? How is your PIO? How does the job search go??? Finding anything?

Chriss: How are those needles coming? When I donated eggs I was soooo scared of that part. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought though, most of them were small....and I put ice on my skin before I let hubby shoot me LOL He described it one night though, because the skin was tougher due to the 'freezing' and YUCK...so glad I didn't have to do my own. So what is your schedule now? Have any idea on how many you're going to transfer if given a choice? Are you fertilizing all of them or just how many you'll definitely use?

Hope: Still responding well I hope? I thought I'd be a good responder, but I only had 11 eggs when I donated....so I'm a bit nervous this time since I'm older. What meds are you on? Since I'm going to a different RE then where I donated eggs then maybe they'll put me on something that my body responds better to :) Glad that your AF showed up early....mine showed up late but better late than never LOL

HRobinson: did you get your test back from the mass? Praying for you. So what is your next step? Thank you for commending me on the adoption....we love them dearly but it's definitely different. I'm sure they'll grow to love us (praying for that anyway), but they've been bounced around so many times in their little lives that it's just hard for them right now...and we understand that. We didn't expect them to bond with us in 6 months, or even a year....but surely before they are adults LOL With the 4 year old though, we've come to the realization that he may never bond with us....which is really sad :( But again, God put them in our lives and we're content with knowing that and raising them to love God and to love themselves.

Where has everyone else been? We've lost some new posters too....come back come back! LOL We're still set to meet the RE on the 6th....lately I've had such awful feelings about what other people will think though. I know I shouldn't care, but what will people say when I'm pregnant? Will they think I'm crazy for adding another child? Am I crazy LOL? And what if God blesses us with twins (yay Kildean!!!), again....I really need to stop worrying about what others will think. And stop rushing to the future and take it one day at a time....the IVF may or may not work in the first place, so I guess I should just slow down :)
