Starting to get the routine/schedule down with the kids as much as possible. Court is today so we should get more information/schedule about visitation/calls after that. Kids talked to bio parents again last night because there is no way tonight is going to work to talk to them and she keeps calling every day (which per caseworker I have the right to say right now doesn't work). Once a schedule is determined then that gives us more power as well that if it is on a non scheduled time we can say no much easier.
Have another meeting this week to get more things hammered out with the kids as required once we have a placement. Then hopefully we have much more of the needed information and documents that they have been working on getting us (such as the court order-which can't be given until after today!)
FX about that today since bio parents are contesting it.
QOTW: A's birthday is Valentine's day and we have a class that night so need to figure out how to celebrate it mostly on another day but still do something on the day at his daycare, celebrate Valentine's day, and at least a little bit on the day of. H and I usually cook a nicer meal that day but we may also just do it on the weekend.

Question Of The Week. It's in the original post for each week
Ok thanks! Ugh too all my typos :/ I meant getting all the paperwork and filling out the online stuff is overwhelming.
TTC #1 since August 2013 DX: Endo November 2014: Hysteroscopy, D&C June - September 2015: Clomid + Novarel + IUI #1-3 January 2017: Laparoscopy - endo removed
I'm sitting at (what I'm pretty damn sure is) 7DPO, despite FF. I have a good feeling about this cycle, but I'm definitely wishing away the days to get to this weekend. To test AND because I'm not finished with work today and I'm ALREADY done with this week.
QOTW:Do you and your H/SO do anything special for Valentine's Day? Gifts, flowers, dinner? What are your plans for this year? We always go to "our" restaurant for dinner on Valentine's Day, so that's what we're doing. I'm already craving the delicious, delicious veal.

gabride2010 court ruled that the kids stay in care and with us which means there was enough of a reason to have them removed from their bio home for now. Visitation is being worked on-we have a meeting Thursday to discuss the case with everyone. WIC has now contacted me so that is getting switched over, the daycare assistance place has reviewed our application and need our employment verification and then can move forward there.
Lots of phone calls, emails, and stress since last week. It will settle down at some point.

Hang in there! The first few weeks are crazy but once all the paperwork is done and everything is worked out for visits and services, you all will settle into a routine. I've been thinking of you a lot this week and hope everything is going well with the kids. FX everything goes smoothly on Thursday.
I'll be back to tag when not mobile, but love and hugs to all!
My "lucky" cycle wasn't so lucky. CD1 with a vengeance today. I'm exhausted after two crazy long days at work and skipped out on an event tonight so I can sit with a heating pad on my ute. On to cycle 28, medicated cycle 9.
QOTW - we're pretty low key for Valentine's Day. I'm making us a small heart shaped red velvet cake at some point though ❤️🎂

Ugh I am sorry you are in so much pain rooskie! Hopefully you can find something nice to do if you have ER on Valentine's, maybe DH needs to cook you dinner this year
Good luck with everything butlerfan!! That must be stressful with the bio mom calling all the time, hopefully you get a schedule figured out soon.
daisy818 I'm sorry for CD1 Red velvet cake sounds awesome! I hope you will share a picture!
As for me I am CD6. Just kind of hanging out at the moment. Waiting for results on the blood work and doing saline sono on the 13th.
QOTW: We don't have any hard and fast plans. DH typically gets me flowers. I need to figure out what I am going to do for him. Maybe I will do a little baked Alaska... I did that for our first Valentine's Day and he has never stopped talking about it.

Repeat betas next wednesday then ultrasound if those look good. Gah.
Ermagerd that's a great number! Sorry you have to wait an entire week for another round of betas, my clinic is the same way. 5 days from beta to beta 2 and then an early u/s.
I don't normally pee on things but I caved and bought more just because I have 2 more days until beta2. I'd advise doing the same
