Pickles, Anyone?

As I am crunching a delicious pickle, I tell my husband...see, I am pregnant!  I'm eating pickles!

Yummy!  My first craving today as a NON PREGNANT person...hehe  It was very tasty!  I went to the movies with my family tonight-well, sort of...My step-mom took the kids to watch "Despereaux" and I went to see "Yes, Man!" with my DH & Dad!  Very funny movie...I laughed pretty hard.  It made me walk out of the theater wanting to say YES!   Very inspirational!  Watch out, Leah & Heath...Mac & I are coming!!!!  It's time for a "Girls" adventure!!!   

BFN on CD 26

I think it's time to mentally prepare for AF.  Boo!  Hoo!  My temps are back to 98.32 and I tested with a First Response today with one pink line.  I guess I'm Texas bound-got to pack and get ready!  Whoo-hoo!  Time to go cheer for Leah:)  

Temps Flying Back Up! What?!?!?!

My temps this morning jumped back up to 97.72!  I think my body is crazy this month with temps!  I don't want to take a test today-I'll try to wait for the morning...I usually will get a + by Cycle day 26.  I feel like my boobs have a fever!  hehe  Is that really possible?  I think I'm pregnant.  No, I I'm not pregnant.  Well, maybe, I am pregnant.  No, I can't be pregnant.

Is this not insane?  hehe  I'll drive myself mad today.  

Leah, I'm seriously thinking about coming...Do you have New Year's Plans?  I want to either start AF or get a + on a test, though...just so, I wouldn't have to turn around...with the shots & all.  So, let's see what tomorrow will bring.  I'll call you later.

Registered for Half Marathon!!!

Mark your Calendars for March 8th!  I'll be running to the finish for the Half Marathon at Disney World!!!!  I've taken a break from running-but, ready to get back into the swing of things!  Whoo-hoo!!!!

Temps Diving Down

Well, my chart looks like a steep mountain-I have high temps going up-then, a steep downward trend.  I'm having "fiery" nips and pulls in my uterus which makes me believe this is the month.

But, with my history of temps-I realize that AF is onward, nearing in the next few days.  I'm curious though when I will begin a new cycle.  According to FF, I ovulated earlier in my cycle than normal.  So, plan for another month of trying!  I want to train for the Disney Princess Half Marathon-I'll need to see if there are any openings left!  I really was hoping to be pregnant!!!!

Boo Hoo!

Best Surprise EVER!!!

My sweet friend from Texas called  last night-she took a pregnancy test, but she couldn't figure out if it was an evap or the real thing!  Her friend rushed over with a digital test & up popped "PREGNANT!"  on Christmas Eve.  She called me again-and I'm at my family's house-jumping up & down, screaming with excitement.  This is the best news ever on Christmas!  This was her "break" month from IUI...it is amazing!  LOVE IT!  Read Crazy Infertile-and you can see pics to believe it!

Pinching Pain!?!

Implantation, maybe?!?!  Hope So!  I am 8 dpo-so, we are in the final countdown!  

I had to just write the pinching down-so, next month, if it happens again-I'll remember!

Fingers crossed!

Sam or Samantha?

My husband and I decide to "spice it up" with a new location.  Each month, we will pick a new place to conceive a baby!  We have always been "bedroom only" couple!  Well, today, we broke the mold!  :)  We will not share the location, due to liable reasons.  But, we have agreed to name the baby after the secret "lucky" location.  So, each month, I hope to share a new nickname for our baby.  We will see which one sticks!   If the van is rockin' don't come a knockin'....:)

Should I trust the Digital OPK?

Yes, I know I should trust the results.  MY SMILEY face came one day early today!  I have a positive OPK.  Month 2 attempt.  I know, it's really month 28.  But, it's sounds more positive to begin a new count.  This is what my RE does...so, why shouldn't I?  Right?  It's sad that when you have a miscarriage, you go back to Month 1.  "Give it another six months-we'll see you in May '09."  

So, the Full moon must be working tonight.  

BIG FAT NEGATIVE!

Well, I have gotten + by cycle day 26...and today I had a BFN!  POO!  Disappointed?  Yes  Suprised?  No   Rich & I looked at houses in the Birmingham area yesterday.  It was quite fun!

Life is good.  Mackenzie is beautiful.  Why should I ask for more?  I really am to the  point of "not trying" to get pregnant.  I'm ready to move on...if we get preggo-then, great!  But, I need to take care of myself & my family..not obsess about "what if."  This has practically stolen two years of my life...my thoughts....I can't let it keep taking precious time from me.

This is how I feel today.  I probably will change my mind tomorrow...But, I needed to vent!
