Sunday somethings

How is everyone's weekend going?

DH and I went to the rodeo yesterday with one of our couple friends. I had fun and ate deep fried cookie dough! Yum!

Today we are just lounging around and being lazy!

That sounds like a fun day yesterday starryfish.

Last night we went to a hockey game and it was fun. Today I am working until 5pm. Then hopefully I will get in a run tonight. (I'll probably need it to get my steps in for the day anyways.)

My head is feeling better today! I already did a ton of work, laundry, and cleaned the gutters (gross). My sister will be here soon to take me out to lunch. Then more work around the house, work work, and errands.

I've been super busy today. I left the house at 9 went grocery shopping, then to Walmart, then to CVS, then Rite-Aid. I came home and decorated my Easter cookies, made brownies, and made M&M's cookies. I then swept the entire house. I'm exhausted!

Saw Allegiant. Yes they completely changed things. I am still not sure how i feel.

I put in my two weeks at my chapel job. I am so relieved.

Currently working on and procrastinating homework.

Got a ton of cleaning and organizing sone today and last night, so i feel super productive!  Now, I'm ready to relax for the rest of the night.  I have my saline sonogram tomorrow and I'm a little nervous.  When I had an HSG I thought it was excruciatingly painful, and I'm worried that this will be too.  At least it's one step closer to starting IVF!

Watching some March Madness and then Walking Dead later!

My saline was much easier then my HSG.    Are you doing it with an RE?  I think that was half my issue, my HSG was with a regular doctor while my saline was with the RE.  Two totally different experiences.

I've been awake so long today that I decided it's basically after 5. But it's only 4 here. Ha! So tired. We got a ton done. MH patched all the little nail holes and did touch up paint, and I bought some wardrobe boxes and got most of my hanging clothes set. Seriously, I am never moving again!

H picked a restaurant I like instead of this teppanyaki place that we haven't been for his bday dinner tonight, so yay!

GL tomorrow, mac08!

Yes King26 it's with my RE!  The HSG was with my OB.  I'm glad to hear it wasn't as bad!

My HSG was with my OB/GYN and it was AWFUL. I needed to have it redone in January with my RE and was so anxious I was crying and it ended up being NBD. GL and I hope it is better this time around!

I was really anxious about my saline sono at the beginning of the month, but it was seriously no biggie. They told me to take two motrin or ibuprofen about an hour beforehand. I think I landed up taking 3 ibuprofens. They gave me a 5 mg pill for anxiety and told me I had to have a ride because of that. My H couldn't get off work so my mom drove me. I totally could havespecul skipped that pill and driven myself.  

It involved a vaginal ultrasound first, then they used the speculum and inserted the catheter. I was more worried about that part, and it was over after a few seconds. Then they inserted the saline, and then reinserted the ultrasound.  All done and over from start to finish in about five or six minutes. Make sure to bring a pantyline or pad, because as they told me, what goes in must come out.

For whatever reason the fact that the last FET cycle didn't work hit me hard this weekend. Made me question how much I really want to jump back into another this month. Plus we are still exploring adoption. So after many tears (and chocolate) we decided to hold this month and do some research before jumping right back into it.

Thanks grover, that is helpful to know what to expect.  I will definitely take some Advil beforehand!

Oh yes, this is brilliant advice. I did take that before my 2nd one, so maybe part of the reason it was better.

Hugs hannahb- it's crazy how emotions wax and wane. Makes me feel bipolar.

I just got back from a week long vacation with my BIL, SIL, and their 4 month old. I'm emotionally beat. I think my DH and I had a pity party in our hotel room at the end of every day. They don't really know what is going on with me so there were also some comments that hurt along the way. My SIL had a uber minor fertility issue and was just making it seem like she will never be able to have a second baby because it took her 4 months to try for the first! Now I need to go to bed before I really show what I think about her...grrr.
