    do they have you on progesterone or anything? or using the ovulation strips? that might help you pinpoint o dates (if you need another cycle!) my LF is usually a couple days longer then normal on clmoid. and it feels like I'm pregnant, sore boobs, nausea and wicked tiredness included.  that said, hopefully it's real symptoms for you and you get a BFP asap and don't have to go through all this again!!

    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!

    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.

    She went back to him. I could vomit. Or set someone on fire.

    And then she must have told him her new email pw (he makes sure she gives him all her PWs to email, FB, etc so he can keep tabs on her)... I know she had changed it but I also know that he saw something that I sent her because he FB messaged me about it. We've all clearly changed...

    He's still a controlling MFer, she's a doormat and a punching bag, and I'm the sucker who swears she's done with the drama and gets sucked back in every time. I feel so bad for those kids.

    ugh!! i wish you could just shake some sense into her :-

    What a mess.  I really hate that in situations like this it seems to get worse before it gets better.  Lots of T&P.

    I am in trouble.  Co-worker and I went and got pedis at lunch and didn't invite another co-worker because she always says no.  Well, apparently she got her feelings hurt and is refusing to talk to us, but she's been walking by our offices and making pouty faces all day.  Huh?

    Do I "know" these two ladies?

    Yes.  You do.  The angry one is the one you most recently met at Iliana's house.

    This is scaring me!  I just verified that we have zilch in the way of infertility coverage.  They will cover diagnostics, so at least my HSG will be covered.

    Done! Austin is great - it's the only other place in Texas that I'd want to live.

  • Thank you girls.  Even though the odds are still very very slim, in my heart of hearts I feel like maybe this is the path he's "supposed" to take so I really want them to just hurry it up so we can get through the really hard part and get on with it.

  • DH turned his resignation in to the Army reserves in December.  He's been trying to get it approved ever since.  They just let him know he can't get out until May 2012.

    His unit is supposed to deploy in 2012.

    Cue halfpint panic attack.

    I will pray for a deployment date of July just to be safe. :(

    Lots of hugs and prayers.  Good thoughts good thoughts for- no deployment.

  • HP - Lots of T&P for no deployment.

    Suzi - I was wondering if that was why he posted about going to Austin.  I hope it all works out.

     I am sad.  Avery is turning 4 in less than a month.  Where did the time go?

     

  • No joke HP, I would be freaking out too!!  What happens if they deploy before he gets out? Does that mean he can't get out in May '12?  (Sorry if that's a question you don't want to think about) :(

    Harm- Yep.  They are re-interviewing everyone, because of the hoopla w/ the leaked questions.  We're hoping that fewer candidates make the trip to Austin for a 2nd go-round.  So he isn't actually any further along in the process, it's just taking for-e-v-e-r.  He's also staying tonight at the station w/ his BIL so I have another night as a single mom.  I don't know how you do it.

    That's exactly what it means.  And depending on how the orders are written, if they receive the orders before May, he still might have to deploy with them.

    How nervewracking!  Crossing everything that they don't receive orders before he gets outs.

    How does this affect the plans to relocate?

    Well, if he doesn't deploy, then it doesn't affect the plans.  If he deploys then we'd relocate when he got back.

  • Sometimes life is just not fair.  Lost someone I knew to lung cancer.  He never smoked a day in his life.

    Cancer SUCKS!!!!!

  • i hate insecurity.  The guy is at his ex-stepdaughters wedding today.  he had to be around the ex last night; tonight and tomorrow afternoon.  She's seeing him more in the last four days that I have seen in a week and 1/2.  I know that I should not be worried about it but can't help be insecure.

    she is an ex for a reason. my guess is in the last 4 days he's probably been reminded of why. but i would feel the same way you do!

  • I wrote a really long post the other day and the nest ate it.  I hate that. 

    Duchess -- sorry about your sis. Praying.

    HP -- Progesterone sucks big time.  Praying for that and the army issue.  So sorry!

    Hi friends!
