TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5. BFP (at home 7dp3dt, confirmed 14dp3dt with 1552 beta) and U/S at 5w5d, 2 sacs and 2 yolks!
I'm just hanging out at home again today. I'm hoping to get some stuff done in our spare bedrooms. They were basically just storing a ton of furniture and we sold it at our garage sale on Saturday and then donated the rest. Now those rooms need some serious organization. One is supposed to be an office and the other is just holding tubs of teaching supplies. We have a basement for storage so I'm hoping I can get the second room to be useful now that all the junk is out of there! I was thinking of a guest room but I don't think we would use it since we live within a couple of hours of all our family/friends. Do you have spare bedrooms? What do you use them for?

We have 2 spares. One is my make-up and clothes room. The other is an actual spare room - that never gets used!
Heading into work. Preparing for a fight with the REs office today. Their lack of communication and direction is making me batty. It shouldn't be this complicated to get a message to my doctor!!!

We have 3 rooms upstairs that are all set up as bedrooms, though currently the one is a foster nursery as well. All of our family lives within about 30 minutes, so it is rare that they would stay over, but I like to have them ready in case the nieces/nephews decide to stay over.
At one time, the one was used for storage, but the reality is that the stuff that got stored there, might as well have just been thrown away, and in the end, it was.

I have one spare room and it is my glorified closet. It is amazing. All my clothes are in there plus the ironing board and what not. The only reason I don't do my make-up in there (which I was originally going to do) is because the lighting SUCKS.
(My bedroom furniture is big and bulky and wouldn't all fit in our master bedroom, so since we didn't NEED the spare bedroom we just turned it into my closet and will buy new furniture at a later date...)
kayladawn91, we have a dedicated guest room. Our family is 30 minutes away, and we have friends anywhere from an hour away to 10 hours away. It gets used a LOT. I was insistent that we have one so people could stay comfortably, and I am so happy we do.
Our other rooms are *supposed* to be kid rooms in the future. One is currently the man cave (just an upstairs smaller living room, basically) and the other is storage that I need to deal with one day and unpack.
I'm at work. I still have 6 procedures to review by tomorrow and a style guide to issue by the end of the week. Thank God for coffee.
ETA as for spare rooms we have an office (really my own mini library complete with by comfy green chair) and a guest bedroom. My parents will be living in there soon until their new house is built.

@kayladawn we are in process of trying to re-organize and shuffle our house around. We have two extra rooms, one is currently my clothes/makeup room and the other is MH's (but with a bed that could be used as guest room if we could see it under his clothes!) and then we have an office (also full of clutter). We need to throw shit away and organize...but there's always something more fun to do I want to make one room an office and one the (hopefully someday) nursery and consolidate clothes into one room and our bedroom...but that means no guest room (we have a finished basement that could hold an air mattress and has a comfy couch at least).

kayladawn91, we have a guest room that is usually my closet unless we have guests, it gets used quite a bit so a bit nervous about what we do if Fx we turn it into a nursery some day...
Super grouchy now... Missed my ferry, then missed my backup train and crazy late for work. I may spent the rest of the day like this

We have three spare bedrooms. We planned on filling them with children since we want a large family but alas they still sit empty. One is my craft room, one has a bed for guests and one is where we have just been storing extra junk and furniture. As for the guest room, we also have a pull out couch in the basement and for the most part if we have guests sleep over they prefer to sleep down there. So the actual guest room is mostly unused. I'm tired of having all these empty rooms to clean. Need to fill them with babies ASAP!!

I'm feeling good about lifestyle change day two. I killed it at the gym yesterday and today I'm like a baby deer with wobbly legs. Have my healthy lunch packed and already checked the weather to see if I can walk at lunchtime. Hopefully I stick to it longer than a week this time.

Also my eyes are still not fixed. They got all better and then I put my contacts in on Saturday and they flared up again. I'm thinking I must be allergic to my contact solution. Anyone have suggestions of solution I can try? I'm so fed up with wearing glasses I can barely see out of that I ordered some new ones. I'm blind as a bat and I almost am at the max prescription for ordering glasses online. What do I do when I got over that?!?! Ah!!!

I'm sorry your eyes are still broken I think it's time to go get a second opinion!
I have no suggestions for the contact solution, but what are you using? I'm sure there's a "green" solution out there if you look for it.
To the glasses- you might have to actually go in and get an rx from the doctor I've never tried ordering glasses online but I'm probably waaayyyy over the max prescription. I can't even read my computer screen without my glasses on.
I seem to get 306 emails a day about the perfect Fathers Day gift, and I hate every one of them! I will be glad when this "holiday" is over! Some of us don't have dad's around to buy gifts for FFS!

Oh I got my prescription when I went to this doc last week. My current glasses are like 3 years old and I have to squint at everything!! I've bought glasses from this website a few times and always liked them. But it only lets you select up to -12.0 prescription and I'm -11.75. Yikes! I just use cheap multipurpose solution. I'm thinking about switching to the hydrogen peroxide kind because it doesn't have the same preservatives as the normal kind. I've never tried that tho.
