I have currently done one thing that I had actually planned to do today. My plan was to:
1) clean the house (didn't happen) 2) laundry (did this!) 3) get a 6 mile run in (didn't happen)
I ended up taking one of the pups to the e-vet for limping on a swollen paw, laundry, cleaned my car, and......"forced" my injured pup to soak his paw in Epsom salt/warm water several times. He thankfully is pretty easy going so it hasn't been too hard to do. Now I am getting ready to eat dinner and do some Jillian Michaels 30 day shred.

We made similar to-do list progress. We were going to hike, clean the house, and do the grocery shopping. We only got the first one done; I got really tired on the drive back from the mountains and took a nap when we got home.
Sorry about your dog's paw!
In TTC news, I thought I got my period last night (usually I wait an hour or so to determine if it is just spotting or "real" but I wanted to go to bed and I assumed it was my period), but nope, gone this morning. So now, of course, I'm fighting the "how awesome would it be to get a BFP on Mother's Day!?" thoughts that keep popping into my head. Ugh...I'm so tired of the mindfuck of this all.
Trying for #3; FET 8/18 -- BFN. Leaving things up to chance for now... After three years, three IVFs, and two FETs, we finally have our miracle babIES!
I went into work this morning to get some stuff done. Not my favorite way to spend a Saturday, but at least I'm mostly caught up now. We went over to the IL's this afternoon to see GMIL and great GMIL, who were in town, so that was nice.
We saw my parents tonight and my mom put a card in my purse for Mother's Day, about how she and my dad can't wait to meet our angels in heaven and that she hopes next Mother's Day is more joyful. It was so sweet. I read it in the car and cried most of the way home. This week is not only Mother's Day, but also the 1st anniversary of my D&C for my 2nd m/c. I am trying not to be a downer, but this is a hard time of year for me :/ I'm ready for tomorrow to be over with.
My mom came down yesterday and we went shopping for her mother's day gift. After we got done shopping, we rented a few movies. It was fun, but she didn't end up leaving until 1:30. Yikes. I have no plans for today and it 40 out, so I plan on staying in and relaxing all day!
Poor puppy, @g22. Hope you had a good 30DS workout. I think I might do that tonight; I give Gillian a lot of credit for getting me into my wedding dress. haha
Hugs, azurely. That was so sweet of your mom to acknowledge you and your angels on Mother's Day. It even made my eyes watery.
Nothing much going on here. H has been busy working on a school project all weekend so going to Target, the gym, and out for fro-yo were the highlights of my Saturday. H made me breakfast in bed this morning and I had a good cry before he left to take his friend to the airport. I know it can be a difficult day for all of us. My big plan had been to announce to our moms today. Instead today marks one month since I lost the baby. This day blows.
My plans this weekend were to go for two bike rides, study for my two finals I have on tuesday and get some sleep after working friday night. Yesterday I planted our garden and then went out with some friends last night to a local distillery. I haven't tackled anything on my list so far other than about 9 hours of sleep last night but I still feel wiped.

belovedbride07 - I started mine on Friday, and couldn't help all week thinking how excited I'd be to get a BFP on MD. But, alas, none. Shocking. lol.
We've been lazy! I watched TV and read books all day yesterday, church this a.m., just chatted w/ my mom, now going to watch some more TV and head to the grocery store later. Lazy weekend for me!
Well Friday was just the day wasn't it? I started mine too, and had the same thoughts because it was relatively light. Woke up yesterday and it looked like I murdered someone. This is the heaviest freaking period I've had in a long time. Blah!

Hugs to every one today!
I had two random days of spotting about 6 - 8 DPO. I have never, ever spotting mid-cycle before and was CONVINCED that it meant something.
But, not surprisingly, it meant nothing. lol. NOTHING means ANYTHING when it comes to my cycle anymore. We're skipping the clomid this round, but are planning to TTC w OPKs and timed sex. I'm going to go on my girl's weekend in June and be not pregnant and if by some miracle I AM pregnant then that will be fine too. Back to medicated cycles in June/July I guess.
BFN this morning, but still no period. We skipped church this morning; I just didn't want to deal with all of the Mother's Day stuff. I wish my mom didn't live so far away; I'd love to spend the day drinking mimosas with her. :-P
I'm actually kind of glad our cat-medicating situation made going out of town to see MIL impossible; she doesn't know that we are trying and it would be kind of hard to hide that I'm having a rough day. The more DH and I talk about it the less we think we want her to know (and even once we get pregnant, we may not want to tell her until we're ready for it to be public). We came to this realization when she called to ask if we had heard that so-and-so cousin is pregnant, and then calling the next day to give us all the details when she figured them out. And then mentioning it again when she and DH talked yesterday. We don't think she'd be able to keep our struggles to herself even if we asked.
