Morning ladies, just a quick post for Jen while I'm waiting for my first client.

Jen: I'm really sorry to hear about your bleeding. This is horribly stressful when you should be in the clear. I hope your scan is perfect and your re will be able to give you some reassurance. I'm asking mother mary to be with you x

LYD- woohoo on the trigger!! Hope ER goes well!!!

Neffi- I am praying you get your +!! your right knowing the end of the road is coming is so hard. I know it is for us bc we are struggling so much with money, but I don't think I have it in me to give up. I may have to pimp out my DH before its over..lol jk.

NInde- I did do the HSG at another hospital, but our radiologist covers the whole northern state so I had to have one of them, but at least I didn't have to see my co-workers. I think I would have died right there..lol Is it bad I have no idea who sinead oconnor is??

Hope- I am so so so sorry. I can't even begin to imagine how you & your DH are feeling. I wish you two all the healing powers in the world.


AFM; Just wanted for AF to get here. Today is day 28 so she should be here any time(sigh) I need to have the D&C before Christmas so we can do our cycle in January. My DH is a huge gun guy! He was cleaning one of his guns the other day & the damn spring shot forward & hit our 55 in. T.V needless to say our T.V is no more. Damn we worked hard to pay it off before our 1 year was up on the interest free. However I did buy a 5 yr. warranty on it so I think we are going to say we dropped it so it will be covered . I hope it is covered!!! Oh well live & learn I guess. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Sorry I haven't posted any quotes in the past several weeks. It's been very tough for me as I have been grieving not just for me but for my DS and his father's family. Below are some quotes for this week, I hope they are helpful, that you find sine comfort in them, and that you all enjoy them.

"A bend in the road is not the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn".-Author Unknown

I read this quote this weekend. It gave me some sense of peace over my son's father's passing. I cant believe it will be one month tomorrow since his tragic death. It was a very rough weekend for me. My father would have been 81 years old on Saturday. I miss hin dearly. I know they are both watching over us. May their souls rest in God's glory for eternity. Until we meet again.

"The years in your life are less important than the life in your years."-Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Adversity introduces a man to himself".-Author Unknown

"Sometimes I think my life would make a great TV movie.  It even has the part where they say, "Stand by. We are experiencing temporary difficulties."-Robert Brault

Hey Everyone,
Its been a long time since i posted, but i thought i would give an update before my beta tomorrow. I'm so nervous and afraid of bad news so I'm trying to prepare myself for the worst. I swear i can hear my doctor's voice playing over and over in my head "I'm so sorry but not this time." Anyways, we had 12 eggs retrieved and then got the call on Thanksgiving that only 4 had fertilized :shock: ....we are so happy to have at least 4 but it was still kinda shocking. Then on day 3 they still looked great and there where possibly 6 that were growing so that was great :) ! THen on day 5 got the call that they were growing slowly and worst case scenario we would not have any to transfer. They wanted to wait until day 6, I was so upset and prepared for nothing, but then got the call we had two very early blast. The doctor said he was on the fence.....hate that he said that. We transfered both and now I go in tomorrow morning for the beta. I'm hoping for a miracle. This cycle has truly been filled with so many ups and downs I have not been myself for 2 months now. Please think of me tomorrow I need all the help I can get!!!!

Jen - try not to stress too much about the bleeding. I've heard SO many stories of bleeding this early with no effect on a healthy delivery.

Hopethisworks - so sorry to hear your news. It's easy to forget we're not safe even once we hear that HB.

Ninde - Sinead hasn't really been relevant here since the early 90s. Does she still record? I recall vividly when she tore a picture of the Pope in half on SNL. Quite the scandalous one, she! Good luck to your friend, sounds like he just might need it.

Kala - Hope those appts are going well and your drives in haven't been too tough.

AFM - just getting stocked up on drugs for the FET. I *think* my insurance will cover the Vivelle patches, and I already have everything else but the Endometrin. I'll wait to order that until the start of the new year so that I can run it through my new FSA balance. I think I have enough on hand to get me through a BFP anyway. Last BCP coming up on Friday, yay!!! STILL did not manage to get our tree up over the weekend. Going to do that tonight. We did take some awfully cute Xmas photos over the weekend.

Hello ladies

Julia: no, havnt heard of that. Where did you hear about it?

Lyd10: how was triggering?

Neffi: im crossing everything for you x

Jen: any news?

Jayne: how are you doing?

Christy: im sorry last night was so hard. It sounds like you have some big decisions. As to your age, I remember when dh and i had our first meeting 6 years ago (we decided not to proceed at that point) but at that stage I was 34 and our re said that 34 was a really good age so I hope that gives you some heart x

Leorira: how are rehearsals going? Originally I was classically trained and technically im a mezzo soprano. But then i started to gig with a band and we were signed here in ireland which was very exciting :D I love most music and sing most things, im never going to rival aretha because i just dont have that type of voice. Im probably a bit 'celtic woman' if you were to think of a voice I sound like. So you are thinking of cycling in december?

Nicole: oh your dh sounds hilarious!!

Amanda: I think the song she is best known for is 'nothing compares to you. Thats crap about your tv :(

Maria: really tough weekend for you and im thinking of you x

Hopefulmommy: good luck

Bonnie: lol, I think you may need to wait a bit! Are you itching to poas?

Amy: I certainly think the 90s were sinead's hey day! I know she also isolated herself from the american market with some very political comments. She has just recorded her 7th album. She is huge in europe but she is still mad!! Will you be SnSing soon? They are beautiful photos and your little girl is gorgeous!!

Afm: not much news, kind of tired this evening, about day 25 so af might be close

I'm going stir crazy here and my cycle hasn't even begun! lol. If I'm this horrible waiting for a loan then it's going to be terrible when I actually get to IVF! LOL.

So Thursday I got a confirmation email that the loan application went through. It said 24 hrs we would know. On Friday (I had thought it was Saturday) the guy that looks into it (apparently the one I had been emailing questions back and forth with) emailed me needing a stateside address. Although I remember putting it on there. Anyhoo, haven't heard anything back! I've emailed with them before over the weekend so not sure why it's taking so long. I really hope we find out. :( Then again I might NOT want too!

Jen- any update, or did I miss it?

Gina- how nerve racking! I HATE to wait, major downfall of mine. I am hoping you get it too!

Lyd- good luck with the ER tomorrow! What time is it at? How exciting! Are you feeling crazy right now? Are you in lots of pain with them follicles are going nuts?

sorry, I'll do more personals later....I think I'm going to go lay down and take a quick nap and maybe I'll feel better. I hope everyone is doing well.

AFM- tough day yesterday and today. My positive mental attitude is not doing so well. I don't know if it's a lack of sleep, just being tired during the day, combination or what, but I am having a difficult time. I will be POASing tomorrow morning and I'm scared to do it. If this doesn't work...I'm not even going to go there, but that's where my head keeps going.
