A Parachute in an Oak Tree: A World of Love
@RAB - Hope that AF shows up quickly!
@Ewenice - I am so sorry your body is not cooperating. I hope the Provera does the trick for you.
Update: I've been trying to get back in to the swing of temping. Main problem is our new kitty who sometimes likes to wake us up at ungodly hours like 5AM. I am not currently mentally prepared for 4 AM temping (and DH would not be a happy camper - he's a much lighter sleeper than me).
Also, if this cycle is like the last and actually normal length, I should be due for it sometime early next week. Fingers crossed for no fluke.
QOTW: Steak soup, carrot soup, apple pie bars
08/13: Started TTC - 07/14: PCOS dx
BFP 09/18/15 - Baby S 05/27/16

Cinnabun and Junebug say, "Go Wildcats!"

"I DO NOT love that you think so many things revolve around you. I know you're bitter. I get it. But I'm over your feelings." The best person on the internet ever!

@poppies717 - wahooooo!!! So excited for you!
@islandmonkey8 - um that tech needs to return to school immediately.
@FutureMrsWright - I am sorry you had to fight so hard to get something done, and that you still need to deal with this. That office just sounds so beyond terrible. I'm glad some positive are in the works for you (and that you can then get away from that OB... because seriously, wtf is wrong with them)
