Am I pregnant

I will know on December 25th, what a day to find out. technically, I could be doing early preg test, but am waiting it out. I feel certain I am pregnant, and if I am not, I may not go on with my treatments, but I prefer to think that I won't need anymore as I am pregnant.

My little guy had his school play today and he was fantastic! I used my new vicam I got myself and had such a laugh.

Oh yeah, I also got rear ended by some school kids mom, but am so chilled lately (I think it is pregnancy) that that isn't even worrying me.

I spent most of the day avoiding phone number swaps with parents, who wanted to get the kids together for playdates.
Another sad thing is my workaholic husband wasn't there and his argument would be that if he was there, we wouldn't have the money to send him to sucha great private school. (we are NOT posh or loaded, it's just that public school where we live is not an option, there is a big ganag/ gun culture).

However, at least I was there. I saw that so many kids didn't have their moms or dads there. I was kind of shocked! It was a big day for the kids. signing off now, its late and have to be up soon with babba! (I know he is 4 now, but still my babba).

These are killing me

Ok so, I am now well into my cycle, I have added Ganirelix (extra LH) as well as changing me from Follistim to menopur. I was doing ok - until my 1st garinelix injection. the area from my injection site has become red, inflamed, hot for a 5 inch daimeter. I read the side effects and this happens to 10% of people. this surprised me, I never have any side effects usually.

I gave my 2nd Ganirilex just now and thats starting to do the same. I have my TV scan and Bloods drawn tomorrow at 6.30am. they sure know how to torture us. he he he. I just had a lazy day, busy doing nothing but will head to bed soon. I spent last night sobbing watching you tube we are pregnant announcements. Not sad for me, just happy to see people so overjoyed that a babba is on it's way.

American heart association

HI there, if I haven't been on in a while its because I think even my second round of fertility treatments have failed. i took a test this am which was negative but period isn't due for a couple of days, so we'll see how that goes.

I went to a website today that talked about your fave charity, so I posted a link on my site ot the American heart association. - don't worry, I don't get paid for it, you can do it to at
http://www.linktoyourcharity.org/index.php and get yours. sadly, i don't know how to get the pic up full screen like its meant to.

Halloween tomorrow!

36 yrs old......yesterday it was official

The race really is on to get that bun toasting in the oven. Today, did day six of injectable meds, kind of cocked it up, but at least I can give myself tomorrows dose to be ok for mondays scan. Had by bday yesterday - nothing special, hubby got me loads of gift (mainly junk) that I just get myself anyway.
Today however, my son and Iwent to a party in a really nice part of town and we had such a great time, the family was quintessentially American and it was like something out of a movie but we loved it. My son got his hair cut by his dad today, hes looking cuter than ever, if thats possible.
His latest thing hes up to is just rambling on and on about nothing in particular - hilarious. He had such a good time today, they had expansive lawns and grounds so he was just having a great time wandering/ digging/ raking. It was fantastic. I truly have met some wonderful people here in the US.
have been pigging out for 2 whole days now - have no idea how much I'm weighing but don't want to get on those scales, thats for sure.

On my Fertility meds

Okay - finally here, infact I have just had my third dose of follistim. I must check the side effects again because 1. snapped at a pal today, 2. snapped at my hubby today (noithing new) 3. snapped at my son just now for throwing a magnet in my face. I would have normally said, please don't do that, it's not very nice. Instead, i went silent and sulked!!! - so funny.

Has more bloodwork today, got out of seeing doc tomorrow but will be re scanned and more bloods on friday (my bday). Hurrah.

saw Chucky from intervention in my local Ralphs the other day - good luck to him.
