Autumn, my mom one day popped up and said, "It would be cool if you had triplets". I told her that she would be moving in with us then.
I am on CD101 which sucks but I picked up my prescriptions for provera and clomid today. Starting my provera on Thursday to hopefully bring on AF, and clomid in just a few weeks. I am hating this whole living in two week increments.
I am really nervous about starting up again and being super stressed and depressed, especially with the holidays coming up. Last cycle I hit my lowest point in probably my whole life, so I just want to keep my hopes up and my mind off of things as much as possible. Ben is encouraging me to find crafts to keep busy so I guess I will be scouring the internet for stuff to do. Let me know if you all have any ideas!

Cycle 2 for us right now and I'm expected to O around this weekend. Ordered some IC OPK's & HPT's from Amazon last week and anxiously awaiting for them to get here.
I'm also trying Pom juice, green tea, evening primrose oil & flaxseed oil this cycle. Oh, and we'll try pre-seed this cycle, too.
Haha, think all my basis are covered?
Hoping & praying like crazy that this is our cycle - I just can't get over the excitement of being able to tell our families on Christmas. I know... calm down, Lindsay, lol.

I'm on day 2 of Clomid. I feel kind of crappy tonight. I don't know if it's from the medicine or if I'm just tired. We're going OOT for a friend's birthday on Wednesday and I don't want to feel crappy the entire time. I'm so sick of feeling crappy all the time.
Confession: I haven't been taking PNV at all. Ever since those Target brand ones made me so sick, I've been scared to take some.
I need something really easy on my stomach.

No news here, they are looking for a donor, so we just wait......
I have heard that the gummy ones are easy on the stomach. Or you can even take 2 flintstone vitamins instead of just 1....
I've got some regular vitamins that are gummies. Should I just take those and then add a folic acid when I get KTFU?

I feel your pain. I'm on CD90.
Stacey, I am sorry you have not ovulated, but it is still possible. I hope the doctor has a good plan for what is next.

It is weird to think that in the past year, I have had my period 4 times. Some women would say that is awesome, but not when you are TTC.

Had the same problem! I'm now taking the GNC prenatal program. I take all 4 at night with a snack before bed (hate to snack before bed, but can't do those on an empty stomach) and they haven't made me the least bit sick at all. Might be worth a try?

I definitely need to learn how to take them with dinner or with a snack later that night. I just need to suck it up and do it!
