Re: Say anything... again!
Oooooooooh fingers crossed that this is it for you! My follicles started looking mature at CD12-14 but would never actually release earlier than CD16-20 without a trigger shot, so it's possible you didn't O until later.
So barely two months after my BIL put my sister in a life-flight chopper and she refused to cooperate with the DA to keep his sorry ass in jail, get a restraining order, or leave, he pushed her around again and then took off with my two nieces and nephew.
The kids are at his mom's house. And everytime my sister calls the police to have them go over to her house to get them (he's not there), her MIL gets a tip (BIL's sister and her husband both work at the sherrif's dept) and leaves with the kids. And the police wouldn't do anything about the latest domestic issue because they said she had to call within one hour of violence or they couldn't do anything. I *** hate small town "justice"
I'm terribly worried for the kids... he told her he'd kill her and the kids if she ever tried to leave. She has a meeting with an attorney tomorrow. I hope this is finally enough motivation to get away and STAY away from him. You know, since using her as a physical and emotional punching bag for 10+ years hasn't been enough.
same here!
wow, how scary. lots of thoughts and prayers for your family.
Ditto.
That is terrible. I hope she gets far, far away from him. And I hate that you have to see your sister go through this too. My sister seems to gravitate towards abusive douchebags and I hate to watch it.
I am so not into writing annotations this week, so far I've written a note on Benjamin Harrison that pretty much said "23rd president, look him up" and now I'm writing one on an obscure military commander that goes something like this "crappy general, all-around-asshat, no one liked him, his post was succeeded by Andrew Jackson, hurrah New Orleans was safe. The end."
The problem is I'm also not into doing website maintenance either which is the other project I need to tackle this week. Blah. I do not feel like working.
I so don't feel good today! I am done with my antibiotics, I am supposed to be feeling better not worse. WTF. My boss even told me I sounded worse today than I did yesterday. Not a good sign...
Star -- Both my girls will hate me too. I don't even allow bikinis on them now. I will be the most hated mother of the century. So, we will at least be in it together.
HP -- So sorry! Praying for a BFP or relief soon. Maybe chat with your doctor? Maybe they can do a blood test?
AprilPrincess -- Ugh. Praying for you. Praying good things for cycle 20.
Hi everyone else!
Thanks everyone for your support, it means a lot. I did talk to my doctor yesterday & they said that the nausea & sore boobs are probably just a side effect of the progesterone I'm taking and they think I need to wait a few more days before we do any blood work.
M&M - How are you feeling? Ready for a boy?
SIL is pregnant and I am SO freaking excited for them! They have been trying for 4+ years and she was diagnosed with PCOS last year.
I am also excited that this means that the IL's will leave me the crap alone about having another baby and I can get my tubes tied in peace. Yippee!
I feel like death warmed over. Seriously, my goal is to make it to lunch time. I'm pretty sure driving to work this morning was unsafe.
Oh Nyquil...how you have failed me!!
The last time I took Nyquil it had the opposite effect (of what it's supposed to do) on me, it did bring my fever down but I was WIRED and jittery. So I was sick as a dog and could not sleep, I'm pretty sure had anyone seen me that night they would have thought I was going through some sort of bad drug withdrawal.
Hope you feel better soon.
i just made an appointment in August to meet with a plastic surgeon to discuss breast reduction. i'm so excited : )
i really hope my boobs are big enough to be considered freakish. wish me luck...lol.

Awesome! I am jealous.
I'm pretty sure my mom isn't allowed back for a few weeks. C cried for a long time last night after she left, walking around the house going "Naaanaaaaaa....Naaaanaaaaa." He calmed down for his bath, but then got out, cried and when I asked what he wanted he said "Naanaaa!"
awww, that is tooooo cute
we call that "grandma withdrawl," it's not pretty!
Not pretty at all. That day of/after always sucks.
Crazy Christmas Kids!
I am on progesterone. I didn't get to use the ovulation stips often enough to identify why I O'd this cycle b/c my family was in town for 2 weeks. Having 5 minutes to pee on something was not happening. I am planning on using them next cycle since I won't have my Mom & Dad asking me what I'm doing every 3 minutes.
it usually takes a couple days after the progesterone to start AF. It used to bug me that my dr would insist I keep taking it even knowing it was past 14dpo and I was not pg. she would then charge me for a pg test in her office, just in case. I get being careful but when you're holding off my AF by being on progesterone it's just a waste of $40!
It has gotten so much better at our house, but it used to put Avery in hysterics for at least half a day.
Nanmom (my mom) lives about 7 minutes away now that we've moved and Charlotte sees her pretty much every day (not literally, but pretty damn often)...and if she's in a mood and wants to see Nanmom and we can't, HOLY HECK.
I hate this f-ing progesterone so much. It makes me really feel like ass & I have to take the progesterone until I'm 10 weeks pregnant. So stopping it to see if AF starts isn't really an option. Grrrr.
And I kind of want to kick you for the wasting $40 comment. Mine costs $25/day. Stupid no insurance coverage at all.
I missed a full week a couple of weeks ago and OMGoodness I could barely function.
Yeah...my sister and I can't figure out what she has promised him, but it must include gold ponies.
I did the same thing, I was supposed to refill it on Sunday. Forgot. Monday, forgot. Tuesday, didn't have time. Fortunately I have an old bottle of a different dosage I've been breaking pills and guesstimating dosage, so at least I'm not a zombie.
