Hi all, I am so bad about replying and posting. My two boys will ask for something every few minutes and then I forget what I read. Just wanted to say I am so grateful for finding BBC and now this board! Without them I am pretty sure my DH and I wouldnt have ever had the VR done. It just seemed way to expensive and difficult to do.
We have been watching AI too! I have to say that I LOVE Jennifer Lopez a lot more now than I did before. How cute is she? I am not sure I will watch it through the whole season, it usually wears on me after a few weeks. But it's fun to watch the first shows where everyone is trying out.
Anyway, I just wanted to check in and say hi. I have been taking OPKs every other day (starting last week) just to figure out when my O starts. I keep looking for that second line! I will test again tomorrow, as I tested yesterday and forgot about it and a few hours later came back to see two lines but I am pretty sure it wasnt a true pos for O. I should really learn how to chart. If you chart do you take your temp every morning?
Thats it for now. Just wanted to say hi! I hope all of you have a great Friday and weekend! Mandy

Mandy- I chart and take my temp every morning around 3:30/4:00 when I go to the bathroom. It is important to take it at the same time each day and before getting up/talking/etc. Though yesterday I had talked right before taking it since I had woken up screaming in a dream lol.
With OPKs I found that the internet cheapies I had to use 3 a day to get a actual positive. My LH surge is very short and happens usually on the day of O.

Just got a call from the cardiologist, they got my MRI scheduled next friday, so all my testing will be done in 1 day and I hopefully will be able to get answers sooner than 2 months. Discovered today that getting my heart rate up is a VERY bad idea, talk about palpitations and tunnel vision LOL

Kirsten - I hope that they give you quick results. The not knowing would drive me absolutely insane!
Jen - Feeling better yet? Have the kids gotten it yet? If not, hopefully they won't. Also wanted to say that if I get that elusive BFP and have a little girl I am totally ordering some of your hair bows. They are so cute!
Mandy - I don't chart either. I tried and it was just too overwhelming for me. I've even cut back on the OPKs.
Sportkids - Y'all will be ttc before you know it! I went with dh and afterwards he told me that he was fine and could have done it alone.
Hi to EOE. Nothing big planned here for the weekend. I have to work, which means dh will do the laundry and cook dinner tomorrow night...woohoo! Just have to share that he is totally clueless on the whole conception process. He gets so confused about it. I am only 5dpo today and my stomach wasn't feeling quite right yesterday. He came home from work and asked me if I was pregnant. My response was I WISH!

Kirsten, Your MRI will be fine. I had to have a few of them for spine surgery during the summer and a CAT scan. So fun. blah! I really hope youre ok and you get the answers you need for your heart. Please keep us updated.
I did another OPK today because I keep feeling a small pain on my right side. Sure enough the OPK is two lines, the second is faint be definitely there. So strange how I am excited that I am ovulating! Gosh it really is the small things I guess. Now just to get a healthy sperm and we are on our way. It sounds so easy! I wish it were.

momto2teens, enjoy your laundry! I am doing the same today, that and cleaning the house. It is amazing how 4 people can make such a mess in just a few days! I am ready for the weekend though. My 5 year old stayed home from preschool today with a slight fever. He is acting fine though! Running around with his 3yr old brother right now. But I would rather be safe than put him in school where there are a lot more germs. Ok off to do more wash and NAPTIME. oh fun!

Jenn – Thanks for this thread! It’s exactly what I had in mind - it’s going to make it easier for me to check in, I can tell! Oh, and sorry you’re so cold! It’s freezing here, too. Normally Utah gets lots of snow, but we don’t fall below 20 degrees during the day. This year has been SO, SO cold, but not as much snow. I hate it. Of course, I’m starting to hate winter more and more as I get older.
Kews – LOL! I love Steven Tyler. I think he’s a million times better than Cowell was. We haven’t watched Idol in 6 or 7 years, but we started this season. I don’t know how long we’ll stick with it, but I like the format a lot better so far.
Tiff – well, perversion is sort of hot, right? I might have been brainwashed into thinking that…my DH is pretty dirty. LMAO about you recording your DH’s snoring! What did he say about it?
Sportykids – he’s going all by himself!? Who will take care of him? My DH went to his surgery without me, but only because he was the first appt of the day and I needed to get our DD to school. I picked him up later. I was nuts waiting and not knowing what was going on. Definitely keep busy!
Mandy – I heart J-Lo, too. She’s awesome. Makes Paula look even more stoned and crazy. LOL!
Cindy – So now you’re 6DPO…are you pregnant yet? LOL, seriously…men.
AFM – Having old friends over for dinner tonight. I’m so excited to see them! I’m also cleaning my house like a crazy woman, making sure everything is absolutely perfect for them to come over. I’m in the middle of touching up the paint on the baseboards now. Brilliant. Because they’ll totally notice how while my freaking baseboards are.

6 little ones down and no stragglers today! The babies I watch of course...:-) Good day, love love love Fridays! It's freezing for us down south, 48 the high today! My bones can't take this weather. Give me my heat anyday! I play softball on Friday nights in a co ed league and yes i am being forced to be outside tonight! Not very happy about that.
Get to spend the day watching my boys playing basketball tomorrow. All day in the gym, couldn't be a better day planned!
I don't watch AI, but my kids did last night and was excited to see that it was here in New Orleans.
Mandym- Yeah, he's going by himself. It was a nerve racking decision but he ultimately made it. I know I sound like an awful wife! There is no way I could go until the summer and he did not want to wait that long. He hit that 9 year post V mark and started to get very ansy to get it done right away. We initially had a consut with Dr. W and he told us we were not good canidates for his procedure b/c of the time since V. So after that phone consult DH wanted it done yesterday. Thank goodness for these ladies who educated me on the different possibilities and Kews steered me to Dr. H. And here we are 3 months later already! Positive thoughts generate positive things, hopefully! Plenty of prayers said and on to the next step...TTC. :->
Nap almost over, so let me get snacks ready. TGIF! :-)

Mandy- GL with the OPK's! I do not use them often cause I can usually tell by my CM what is going on but have used the a couple of times! I have also temped for the past many months and I yes i would temp in the morning at the same time, that is very important! if you have any charting specific questions you can pop over to the CHARTING board as well and I am sure you will get lots of answers vasectomyreversal.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=chart Nancy- OMG just above zero ugh I do not like the bitter cold! Kirsten- glad to hear you got a day set up soon for your testings! I hope you get answers soon! Cindy, no still feeling pretty rough today, just pushing myself along though, thanks for asking My DH now has it and he never gets sick and my baby (4) is getting it, poor guy! Thank you so much about the complements on my bows My business is my 'baby' too! Mandy, yay for +OPK, isn't it funny the things that make us happy now lol! Oh and about the messes, I know! Except we have 7 people in the house but if you let one day go by with no cleaning it looks like a tornado hit ha! Mandym- your welcome, this is NICE Have fun at Dinner tonight, sounds like fun, we haven't had an adult date with friends in so long, I miss it! LOL, I am the same way with making sure everything is perfect when company comes over, lol about the baseboards but i am the same way! Oh well if they don't notice at least you will sportykids, so you watch 6 little ones in your home? How often? What are their ages? AFM, I feel like I am literally dragging along today, blah. I didn't see this cold coming on! It's one of those days when you have so much to do and don't really care if they get done (and that is so not me!) oh well, hopefully tomorrow's a better day!
