Breakfast

For breakfast this morning, I'm having a 4-cheese Lean Pocket. Don't judge.

Will Post Soon, Promise!

I have been such a naughty duck lately about updating this blog, but I've just been busy at work! I am heading up to Hibbing this weekend with my sister in law, so I will try to update before we leave or after we get back.

Have a great rest of the week!

Timeline

As I read my last post again, I was struck by the line "I have been doing this every month for the past year." That's crazy to me. It's just been such a long journey so far and we have so much further to go. Here is a breakdown of our timeline:

Aug. 2006 - Married! :)
October 22, 2007 - First BFP! Were not trying, but would have that next cycle.
November 2007 - Pg all this month
December 12, 2007 - 11w6d Had some slight spotting - went into Dr. to get checked out, ultrasound showed that baby had stopped developing at 6w1d. Suspected molar pregnancy first, but testing showed that it was a missed miscarriage.
December 13, 2007 - D&C :(
January 29, 2008 - First AF, let's start this over!
February 2008 - Trying
March 2008 - Trying
April 2008- Trying
May 2008 - Trying
June 2008 - Trying
July 2008 - Trying
August 2008 - Trying
September 2008 - Trying, but fed up! Had a Dr. appointment, where we came up with a plan: HSG, then next cycle start Clomid, do cd3 bloodwork, and then a follicle scan.
September 10, 2008 - Had HSG - both tubes clear!
September 26, 2008 - 2nd BFP!
October 28, 2008 - 8w0d - first ultrasound showed only a gestatinal sac. Waiting one week to check on progress. 99% sure it's over.
November 2008 - No progress from last ultrasound, as suspected - a blighted ovum. Had 3 options, chose to chemically induce the miscarriage (Cytotec). Started on a Saturday and then waited.
December 2008 - still waiting.
January 16, 2009 - Faintest BFP ever. Wait until next day, very suspicious of this one.
January 17, 2009 - Still faintest line ever, so faint it's almost imaginary. Not looking promising.
January 18, 2009 - Even fainter yet.
January 19, 2009 - start a new cycle - Chemical Pregnancy. Have to go into the Dr. and get ANOTHER Rhogam shot by the DOL.
February 2009 - Currently in the 2ww.

5 dpo - let the psycho begin! :)

Seriously. And now I'm analyzing every single thing because it *might* be a very, very early pregnancy sign. I'm crazy - I know this. I've done this every month for the past year. At least it's not a new behavior. I am also WELL aware that it's probably next to impossible to be feeling anything this early. It doesn't seem to stop me.

My new fun game is to enter every single little symptom into my fertility friend, because I just want to see how many points I can get! Right now it's at 44, but I bet we can bump that up much higher over the next few days! :)

Yahoo - it's the weekend!

This weekend really couldn't come soon enough! I'm not sure why the week dragged on, but it sure did.

In other news, I'm officially in my first two-week-wait since September! So, internet, that means that we will all be waiting on pins and needles until that 2ww is over.

For non-baby-trying and body-effed-upedness goings on, Fred and I bought a new shelf to serve as our entry-way table! We don't really have an entry-way, but I'm hoping to kind of create one when I put a couple of chairs in the living room to really define the space. The best part about the shelf (besides the fact that I love it) is that we got it for 50% off at Target on clearance (then add on my 10% discount) and Fred had a $100 gift card that he got for staff appreciation. Hooray!
