This past week included our super fun weekend away along with continued preparation of the nursery. I realized just how much we have left to do (see last post) and today we made a list of those things and delegated tasks so that we can get more done. Pregnancy signs this week mostly include feeling and [...]
First of all, thanks for the comments on my last post. Any additional input is welcome and very much appreciated! At 23 weeks, if I didn’t have a protruding belly, occasional leg cramps, random knocks on my stomach, and a sudden influx of baby-related mail, I would not know I was pregnant. I don’t know [...]
C pointed out that my last post may have made her sound like a cold-cut-hoarding monster wife who ate gleefully despite my sorrow. In reality, I am very committed to the idea that just because I don’t do something doesn’t mean she shouldn’t… and we both love those subs. I think she probably enjoyed eating [...]
Doctor called today to confirm that the (three) pee sticks did not lie – I am, in fact, pregnant and I have a solid hcg of 106 as of 13 dpo. We are going to draw blood again in a week and he offered a week seven appointment to do a first ultrasound… which is [...]
I think we have the start of something wonderful. I am physically shaking…. I apparently did not believe this was goi g to happen. Please pray, hope, cross fingers for a sticky pregnancy!! More later. My wife values sleep more than telling the Internet about out TWO lines.
… and sheesh it was pricey. A couple more days of pills, a couple more days of waiting, and then we get back to OPKs and more waiting. I’m not looking forward to another TWW but fortunately this time of year is super busy. Speaking of super busy, it looks like I will probably be [...]
CD 13. Can’t check CM really well because of doctor’s orders post-hsg but I know enough to know things have been… busy. OPK yesterday was a present but light line. This morning, the cheapie lit up like a Christmas tree. There was no “oh maybe it’s negative” about it. It was BRIGHT and CLEAR and [...]
… according to FF until this morning, when my temp took a nose dive, which of course utterly confused my good ol’ pal. I think it was probably sleeping under a sheet in a cold room instead of using my comforter, but I’m sure FF will continue to speculate ominously for a couple days. Whatever. [...]
So, despite the fact that it’s only CD7, CM was like a faucet yesterday and the OPKs definitely started darkening. So we called today, even though I knew it was probably far too early (my average O day is CD16 and the drugs I took were pretty mild). Doctor said come in, so we did. [...]
… I scheduled a dental xray / cavity filling that I didn’t do last week while I was at the dentist because I might have been pregnant (yes, they congratulated me despite me emphasizing I didn’t know, no I’m not looking forward to going back empty-wombed) … I left work early and weeded my terribly [...]
