CALLING ALL WOMEN OF STRENGTH!! New Thread 2-3-11

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.
A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.
A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.
A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.
A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.
A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

guesito- That's great news! Have you posted pics of the room yet?
Luvkayln- I can't believe you are that far! Did you not have m/s at all with this pregnancy?
AFM- Baby C is 6 1/2 months and growing by the day! Her finalization could be any day now. I am now 8w3d. I am on z.ofran for my m/s and still on progesterone. Our next appointment is Monday with our RE!!! .

Rachjas- I had morning sickness from like 6-8 weeks, but barely...! Guess I'm getting lucky this time around, hehe! ;) I just feel completely different this time around, totally different then when I was pregnant with the girls, and I know each pregnancy is different but it just amazes me at how different each one can actually be! :)  Can't wait to hear your update from your apmt on Monday! I know you're anxious to see that lil bean! ;) How are you feeling?
Guesito- The baby's room is adorable! :) I'm glad the contractions have stopped, what a relief!! Wow, you're good! You've already got your bags packed?! I didn't pack mine till like a few days before I was set to have her, lol! You're on it! ;) 7 weeks will be here before you know it!
************************************************************************************************************************************
Guesito: Oh my, I hope you stay contraction free! As for the backaches, be careful because you could be contracting in your back (back labor), keep an eye on it. Also, be sure to tell your massage therapist of the GD and high blood pressure and contractions. Chances are (sorry!) that you will not be able to get a massage. I am a massage therapist and if you have any of those, we require a note from your OBGYN stating it's okay to recieve a massage. I'm not sure of the massage licensing laws in FL, but here in OH we are the strictest state and the hardest tested state throughout the U.S. Rest up and make sure you are drinking enough water.

Luvkayln: 12wks?!! Geesh! It seems like just yesterday you told us! I'm glad you aren't having much morning sickness...although we are relieved to get it, it's just rough lol! We got hit by the same snow storm you guys did - except here we got at least 1-2 inches of ice. It was nasty out.

Rachjas: How is the zofran working for you? I had it with DD but quit taking it when it made me sooo completely constipated (TMI sorry!). Ginger ale works really well and small amounts of carbs at a time, like toast or small bagel and such. Hope all is well and I can't wait until all the papers are finalized!

trh: Almost there!!! How are you feeling? Are you getting really excited yet? I can't wait to see pictures!!!

Has anyone heard from Keyan lately? The last I heard was she needed a biopsy and haven't heard anything yet...

AFM: Well, Peyton turned 1 yesterday... :-( I can't believe how fast time has gone by!!! She is walking everywhere and getting into everything lol!!! She's getting so big too, she has her 1 year well check next Tuesday. Besides the ice storm we had here, we are all doing well. DH went out and bought a generator in case we lost power b/c of all the ice accumulation, but thankfully it didn't go out. We are expecting more snow this weekend and again Monday and Tuesday. Oh joy lol! I'm ready for warmer weather!!! I hope you all are doing well!!

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

Hi all,

I've been reading this post for the last two years and am now starting to try again. Here's a little about me.

I have two daughters (4 and 2), I'm 26. It took us over a year to get pregnant with our first, achieved only after an hsg. My hushand has a varicocele and had surgery 4 days before we found out we were pregnant, which was 3 weeks after I had my hsg, lol.

We got pregnant 4 months after we started trying our second time and it ended in an ectopic, discovered only after it had ruptured. I had to have emergency surgery and lost my right tube, but kept the right overy.

We got pregnant with our second daughter 5 months after the ectopic...it didn't take too long.

We have not been using any form of bc for the past two years, and have been haveing unprotected bd...on and off during that time. But not BFP, we are really starting to try now so we will see what happens.

I am counting myself as 1dpo even though I have not had a positive OPK even though I have been doing them the past week. I may not ovulate this month because it could be on the wrong side or I could have missed the LH surge with the OPK but I did have EWCM the past two days and it's gone now so that's what I am going by. Also my normal cycle length is 32-34 days so it would match up with that also.

Just a quick update since I'm really tired lol:

Had my surgery this morning for the endo - all went well but they did end up having to take my appendix out. I guess it was twisted and kinked which i'm not sure how it got like that...Okay, ladies, I need a nap ;-) I'll update you on my recovery as I can. I hope all of you ladies are doing well.

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)
