Ok, ok I suppose it's time to update...

I guess it is time to update this thing. I officially stink at keeping up with blogging. But hey, I am a full time worker, part time student, new homeowner and pregnant woman. Its hard to keep up with online stuff. :)

Oh by the way, if you didn't catch it, I am pregnant!! Yay! I am praying hard that it will stick. My temps are staying up and my HPTs are getting darker. So I am feeling good about this one.

My first OB appt is May 5th. I am so excited! And since I work in the radiology department, my co-workers are ultrasound techs. :hehe: You know what that means?! A whole lot of "unofficial" ultrasounds.

Mostly I am just dying to hear a heartbeat. I have been pregnant twice before and I have yet to ever get to hear a heartbeat. :sigh: This is going to be a strong, healthy baby so I will get to experience all the fun pregnancy things this time. ;)

Facebook=TTC woman's worst nightmare

The title should say it all. Facebook sucks! One of my acquaintances just announced she's knocked up. :sigh: Why, oh why can't I be the knocked up girl?!

On the bright side (I guess), my husband sounds like he wants to have a SA done. He is worried that its his fault we aren't getting pregnant. I don't think its him but it will be nice to have proof.

Midol is my new best-friend

Yes, its true. I have befriended an inanimate object. No, I am not crazy. Midol saved my life today. If you haven't guessed it by now, AF showed. :grrr: And apparently she was angry. I have never had cramps so bad in my life. Thankfully, when I went and got "New Moon," I also picked up the Midol. I usually don't take much for pain meds but this stuff works wonders. It will now always be around during AF.

I have been a little lazy with updating my blog. I apologize. Its amazing how time flys when working and going to school.

Not much new to report. We are on cycle #9 for TTC. My plan is to ditch the Soy and B6 this cycle. I will only be taking prenatal vitamins. I will continue temping, using OPKs, and Preseed. If I miraculously get pregnant this cycle, my EDD is Christmas Day! How cute is that?!

Other than that, our loan for the house is almost ready. We close on April 12th at 10 am. We are very excited to get this move over with. And school is going well. I am working on figuring out how to work an accounting degree in with my B.S. in Business Management. I think its going to be a lot of work but I really would like to become a CPA and start my own business. :)It's quite a jump from my current career as an MRI Technologist. Lol. I am already trying to change careers and I am only 24! Is that a bad sign?

Anyways, I will try to update more often.

La, la, la, la...

This is the worst part of my cycle for me. AF is gone and I am just sitting around waiting to get closer to O time. Boring... :sigh: Its even too early to really start BDing. I don't want to wear DH out too early! :hehe:

School, work and moving plans are keeping me somewhat busy. Oh and I am starting a new hobby (my DH would call it a hobby anyway). We went and bought me my first gun. :gasp: I have an irrational fear of guns. I am paranoid that they are just going to go off on their own. DH really wants me to be able to use a gun if its ever necessary. He is a police officer so guns are his "thing." And he worries that he will piss off a bad guy and the bad guy will come after me! (yeah, I thought I was paranoid!)

Anyways, so we found a .22 pistol for me. I get to go pick it up tomorrow. Then its off to the shooting range to figure out how to use it. And hopefully I overcome my fear of guns.

I have a visitor!

AF is here finally!! I never thought I would be so happy about seeing AF. :D So the plan is 80mg of Soy CD 4-8 and B6 all cycle long. Then the Pre-seed during my fertile window. BDing at least every other day. And using OPKs to catch LH surge. Whew, I am armed and dangerous!

Anytime now...

So I am 15 DPO today. My temp has gone down and HPTs are negative. Just waiting on AF to show. :sigh:

I am prepared for cycle #8. I ordered some Pre-seed and 40 OPKs and 10 HPTs. I am excited to try the Pre-seed along with the Soy Isoflavones. It seems to be a good mix for other ladies. Just need AF to show so I can get going on the next cycle.

1 Day To Go

Tomorrow is my planned testing day. :sigh: I have no idea how I feel about it. My temps dropped a little bit but they are staying steady. It will all come down to tomorrows temp. If it goes down at all, I am not testing. If it stays the same or goes up, I will test. I am praying so hard that it goes up.
