Still Not Testing

In keeping with my PUPO I'm not testing again today.  Nope I'm taking the rest of this off.  I still can't hold my pee for more than 2 hours and almost thought I'd wet myself today in church I had to pee so bad.

I'm not going to test at all.  I'm going to wait for the beta result.  I may go batty tomorrow waiting for the phone to ring with the results but either way I'll share the news with all of you.

Still no AF signs.  I still get slight headaches daily.  I'm still forgetful.  I still have a bit of constipation that is getting to be annoying.  I guess I'll have to eat even more fruit than I already do since if I ingest milk products and whole grains it goes the opposite way I don't want to get sick.  No its not just the lactose its the whey protein.  I've always had that allergy.

I actually felt like dressing up a bit more today for church and so J decided to put on dress pants and a nice shirt too.  No tie.  He hates wearing a tie unless its for his uniform.  I thought the cute Garfield tie would look nice today but no go there.  Oh he has plenty of ties from his days of office work as an engineer but now that he doesn't have to wear one often he prefers not to.  I suppose I could have pressured him to wear one but I'd rather not wear a tie either as I don't much like turtlenecks and anything strangulating my neck.

So here I sit.  No odd colorations are showing up on the Endometrin applicators so I guess that means no AF.  Yes, I'm really afraid that tomorrow I'll find out that I lost Hope.  I'd rather not think that, see the results or hear them and go on my blissfull way of ignorance.  But I have to face the facts when presented.

I do hope that I am still pregnant and that my beta is a good number tomorrow.  Its almost as if I'm gambling but in a way I am.  I'm fighting the odds associated with infertility.

Good luck to everyone that is trying to conceive this month.  I hope all of us get our dream's fulfilled.

Getting Organized

I love the white board that my friend Alex sent to me yesterday.  Now I can not only organize my appointments in a clearly written easy to see manner but I can also leave a list of chores that need to get done.

Alex really hooked me up.  She even sent me chore magnets!  Now all I have to do is remind my husband to look at the fridge to see what still has to be done for the week.  LOL I can even remind him to brush his teeth because there is a magnet for that, not that he needs reminding for that but hey its also nice to put something cute up there too.

I have to tell you that I envy Alex her talents with clay.  I mean just take a look at this: beautiful 4 piece bowl set.

If you get the chance head over to Alex's online shop Ugabugabowls.

Now for the update on how I'm doing.  I'm okay but I'm feeling a little odd.  My breasts, the nipple area, is still sore and they are now starting to swell.  I've lost 2.2 lbs of the bloat from the egg retrieval and injections with 3.6 more to go to my pre PUPO weight.  The odd thing is that my pants are tighter and bit uncomfortable around the pelvis, in particular the uterine area.

I'm still getting a few twinges and I'm a bit sore when I bend over too far.  When I lie down on the bed to read I can feel an odd stretching in the uterus like the muscles are being pulled tight.  It might be from the procedures and I won't know for sure what is going on until the Beta on the 6th.  For now I'll just chalk it up the recovery.  The ovaries will have to shrink a bit still and the uterus is probably a bit swollen from the hormones and the beating it took on Thursday.

J did sign back in from leave.  He is doing the housekeeping for me today and hopefully will remember to start the laundry soon.  He is new to this white board micro management.  Nope he didn't look at the board to see that the laundry had to be done.  Its going to take a bit but he doesn't want me lifting a finger.  He is too afraid I'll lose this baby like the last two.
