Ladies,

I am here !!! Wow what a long journey, my feet turned into huge balloons so i am resting and keeping them elevated, although couldnt resist hitting the pool for a few hours today - felt SO GOOD!

We dont have internet yet, but Panera bread does, so here i am although i need to make it quick (this time).... glad everyone has now got the photobucket- i also tried to log on as i told you all and it didnt work, iguess you just go to the main page and log on using the group name and password.... sorry you had trouble, and hope everyone now knows, if not just shout out!!

Just wanted to say a big YAY to chris and NY on your eggs, embies and chris for being pupo!!!, missed you ladies and will get back soon... i think i have some wedding pics on this harddrive i use as a screensaver, so i will try to upload to photobucket and check your pics!!

Kas - Glad to see that the move was successful. Now all you have to do is get Internet access. I am sure as you get bigger that pool is going to come in handy. I wish it was warm here.

NY - How are your embies doing? What day are they going to freeze them?

I love everyone Pics, thanks Kas for getting the photobucket account going.

Hope everyone has a good weekend!!!

Chris

NY - Congrats on your frozen blasts. When will they do the CGH?

Gina - Glad to see that you are doing well. You have had a very uneventful PG so far. Keeping my fingers crossed that it stays that way.

Hope everyone else had a good weekend. Mine went by way too fast and I didn't even do much. I have an extended weekend this coming weekend. I am taking off Friday and Monday and going to KY Lake. I can't wait because I really need to get away. Now all I have to do is get through the next 4 days which are going to suck because I am trying to work extra hours so I don't have to take as much vacation time. 1 more week till my beta and the only symptom I have is sore BB's every once in a while. I always have tons of cramping and sore bb's in any 2ww. There is a post I read that this gal was increasing her dosage of PIO because she felt that will help with cramping. Well, I also decided to self medicate. I take 1cc of PIO in the evening and take 200mg Prometrium in the AM. I had left over Prometrium from my last IUI cycle. So since I started doing this, I have not had any cramping. YEAH!!!! One less thing to drive me insane in the 2ww.

Chris

Chris, hope you enjoy your extended weekend! That sounds like fun. Will you go 4-wheeling? I know you are counting down the final days of your 2ww. I'm glad your cramps are better now after the self-medication.

Hey Gina! Glad you're feeling good. Did you ever get your IBS symptoms under control? Are you planning to take off work a little early before your due date?

Hi NY, great news on your 5 blasts. When will you have cgh?

Kas, glad you made your big move, although your poor little feet! I can relate, my ankles have looked more like cankles lately. Are you getting all settled now? I loved your wedding pics! Did you have a destination wedding? DH and I got married in the Bahamas and loved it.

Babyhope, loved your pics too. I will try to post one of our baby girl. How are you feeling?

Hi Pixel, I see you posted some pics too. I have to ask, what is the award? And when will you have you surgery to remove the mole?

Karen, how are you doing lately? Any more progress on the nursery?

to_have_fun08 · Post by **to_have_fun08** » Mon Mar 23, 2009 8:35 pm

Wonderence - No won't be 4-wheeling. DH has designated this trip for fishing only. Which is fine by me. It kind of gets to be a pain with both DH and I having to drive or Jeeps 3 hours away just to go wheeling. I also don't think it would be a good thing to do in the 2ww. You get bumped around a lot. If I am not PG then I will do some more wheeling in April or May. I can't wait for it to warm up so I can take the top down.

Karen - haven't heard from you in a while. Hope things are going good with you.

Pixel - I was also wondering what the trophy was for.

Chris

to have fun and wonderce - the award was a fake 2-demensional academy award for an oscar party DH and I go to every year... It was probably a BEST ACTRESS! "I'd like the thank the academy... and my girlfriends from the message board!"...

NY - congrats on the five frosties!

karenvancouverisland · Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:55 am

hi ladies...yes i'm a bit behind the times here with our group, sorry about that. not sure what's been going on with me, but frankly i've become a bit of a worry wart again.

it started last week when i noticed a decrease in how much the baby was moving..after a couple days of noticing and worrying, went to the dr (my GP, as OBGYN was away), and he could find nothing wrong and heartbeat was still good.

it just brought back all my insecurities, and i just hate this feeling. i've been trying to push through it, ignore it, voice it..blah blah. but it still comes and goes.

on more positive fronts, i bought all the nursery furniture- went for brand new and i'm so happy i did! it was a treat, although i did wait for a great sale, and DH's mom bought the crib. and my mom bought us a travel system (infant car seat and stroller)...the nursery dresser arrives in 2 weeks, and crib and change table not til june 2! (so glad it's ordered now). got it all in 'espresso' stained wood.

i'll have to get it together and post on the photobucket, i so enjoyed looking at everyone's pics...

thanks for putting them up everyone, and for getting it organized kas.

chris and ny i've got my fingers crossed for you both..so NY when is your next step?

wonder- do you have any nursery stuff going on? i've also fallen in love with this jungle animals theme sheets ect they have at sears..so cute but expensive.... and how are you finding baby's movements now that you're feeling them?

hi pixel, babyhope, gina, and kas- bet you feel VERY pregnant...i'm kinda jealous, but i'm sure you just have other things you worry about.

anyways, hope everyone is well, karen

wonderce · Post by **wonderce** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 5:57 pm

Chris, what kind of fishing does your DH do? Or maybe you fish with him? Mine loves to go off-shore and fish for tuna, grouper, and drum. We also used to do some 4-wheeling at the north end of our beach here but he almost sank his truck once so that was the end of that. You're right, I guess all that bumping around wouldn't be good for you!

Pixel, that sounds like a fun party. You two looked like movie stars!

Karen, sorry you're having anxieties again with the pregnancy. At least you got the reassurance from your doctor that all is well. I can't remember, but did they say you could come in to hear the heartbeat whenever you like? My doctor offered the same thing but I've only been going in for my scheduled appts. I think now that I'm feeling her move it helps keep me calm. DH was finally able to catch her moving over the weekend too which was really exciting. He couldn't believe it! He's still finishing up some final touches on the nursery, and I have the bedding but just need some furniture and a crib now. Maybe you could splurge on the jungle sheets or register for them? A friend of mine did a jungle theme and it turned out so cute!

Hey Ladies,

Still no internet .... i will have to go crazy till 30th when we are connected and then i will be back in full force!!

Loving all your photos !! as soon as i can upload more i will.. i should post a HUGE belly pic and make you all

i have no idea how i can grow anymore, i just keep remembering the scene from ALien

Glad everyone is doing well, NY - 5 blasts is great, if you next cycle can yield the same you will have plenty of blasts for testing

Chris- so beta is the 31st..... i have an appt with the new OB here on that date so i will be thinking of you. As far as PIO goes, my RE had me on 2ml daily and i didnt have any cramping so i agree with you self-prescribed dosage.. ANy other symptoms??? (i ask but remember i had none)

Everyone elso i oved reading your messages - i guess i feel out of the loop right now as i am not online so i cant wait to get back! Oh and Karen, i worry a lot too. One of the babies pushes down so low i feel he is coming out sometimes and i get a bit panicky, and i never feel anything on my right side even though i know there are 2 babies there. DH talks me down

ON a cute side, a little girl came up to me today and asked me if i was having a little baby. It made my day.

Love to you all, and back soon!!

Hello ladies, its been a little while for me, nothing really new to report. I have been reading of your adventures and wish you all the best!!

I think I am starting to feel movement. I don't find out sexes until Aril 24th, that is DH 35th birthday. I just had to get the Quad screen first and I did that this week. I also did the nuchal translutency (sp?) test which turned out fine. They looked like little skeletons in there...oooohhhh aaaahhh. It was crazy. The triple screen or whatever blood test I took in the first trimester came back fine but I was reading that results are skewed with multiples so I am not sure how they are defining them...hope they are not a waste of time.

Karen, I have the same problem, ups and downs. Everything new is worrisome, the movements freak me out, like one is dying or something. I have rented the babybeat and get one heartbeat then it moves and I lose it, then I find mine but mine is so slow in comparison I also thought one was dying. Anyway, who knew you can hear the blood pumping into your leg? We are nearing the timeline of survivability so hang in there, just weeks left really...

karenvancouverisland · Thu Mar 26, 2009 3:08 am

hi ladies, kas and babyhope- it was nice to hear i'm not the only one who worries at this stage

baby's been moving more today and last night so i'm feeling quite reassured..it's nice..

chris...i've got my fingies crossed for you!!! can't wait for your beta results..

i've got my OB appt this monday, so this time i'll be borrowing that old fetal doppler he offered me before. i'll try not to get obsessed with it, but just have it on standby for enjoyment and to prevent craziness if needed.

i still haven't got around to posting on photobucket, but i'll get there. hope everyone is well- hi wonder, Ny, gina, lynnie, pixel.....karen
