1. It's freezing out 2. I can't believe that Christmas is in 6 days 3. I am nervous about by next IUI and fear that it may take another 5 failed IUIs before I see a positive again, it's terrifying. Even though those 5 failed were DW and not me personally, it sucks. Also, we got confirmation on her diagnosis of DOR and Anovulatory, so IVF may not even be the best option for her, I feel so sad for her, but on the flip side she's not very upset, and just wants a baby regardless. 4. Work will be crazy the next five days as the last shopping days wrap up. 5. I need to hire more people, but there are more jobs than people in this town. 6. I found another great new donor, I hope DW approves.

wittyandwaiting, I'm happy to see the snow today, but the weather is calling for rain later this week so it will be a wet and dark Christmas with no snow...
... that has me in a foul mood. Trying to cheer myself up with decorating.
Got all 97 cards addressed, stamped, and in the mail by 11am. Go me.
Waiting for my eye appt. I'm tired of not being able to see in my contacts. And I am pretty sure I have a raging eye infection.
Heater in our house stopped working last night. We bundled everyone up for bed and woke up in the middle of the night sweating. Miraculously it had started working. Still having someone come look at it today.
I got to talk to my BFF on my way home last night. It's been way too long because we work opposite schedules.
The 4 month sleep regression is still causing Ellis to wake up multiple times a night. Last night it was 4 times and I was up 45 min for most of those wakeups because it takes a long time for her to be in deep enough sleep. On the other hand, having an early bedtime for Ellis means we have evenings/nights to ourselves, which is nice.
****loss and living child discussed***** We're queer. I'm 34, have severe stage 4 endo, and both fallopian tubes are gone. My love ("Manada" 33) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tav.in and Ca.sey at 21 weeks gestation.
No raging eye infection. Just allergic reaction to something. Got eye drops, new brand of contacts, and instructions not to wear my contacts (yea, right...I can't see anything in my 15y old glasses.) But it's nice to know I am not going blind and it is more of a nuisance than a big deal.
Heater repair person didn't come before we had to leave for parents night out. But the heat is still working...so that's good! Fingers crossed that it holds on till Wednesday.
1. Gots me some metamucil to keep my digestive system on the regular. It reminds me of an orange otterpop.
2. Watching Star Wars V. Gonna wrap some presents soon and stick them under the tree!
3. "I'm not afraid." "You will be."
4. I got my blood drawn today for some beta testing! I go again Monday (obviously) and then I'll have results Tuesday. My doctor ordered the test to keep me calm, mostly, I think. She also ordered an early U/S that will let me see a "baby with a heartbeat" to ease my worries. I love her.
I got an 85% on my practice test. I need an 74% to pass so I scheduled my test but it's at a college so I have to wait till after the semester starts again. It's only 2 weeks but ugh!
I looked up Japanese gift wrapping and played around with it tonight. If done correctly it uses less paper and the final product looks really sharp. It will now take me forever to wrap gifts this year with this new method.
O was a hoot today at swim class. We are taking a break over the winter, I hope we can pick up where we left off in the spring!
I took O with me to finish shopping for M this afternoon. She was so good. Other than it being freezing, it was a good time.
J and I had a lazy day. We didn't get off the couch until about 3 hours ago. Now we are making salads for dinner and gonna watch a movie.
I've been feeling horrible today because I took a benadryl last night and have been groggy alllllll day. I said "if I am 125lbs and this groggy, imagine what the baby is feeling!! What if he is too tired to grow?!" I called the nurseline to be sure it was fine, and Dr. Google says it was fine, but man is it bugging me. My nose is better though. I felt a sinus infection emerging and I wanted to dry it up before it got serious.
I ate cereal today and it made me happy. I also ate 3 sour pickles a few minutes ago and that made me even happier.
I took Benadryl a lot in my first pregnancy. Don't feel bad. Not sure why you take it but I know when I started waking up all the time it would help me get back to sleep through the night if I took half a tab before bed. And baby and I needed me to get my sleep.
Arrived in Ontario this morning at 3:30am! So excited to be home. Sad Jo isn't here. Excited to see my friends twins next week. I got them two onesies. They are adorable. My friends mom is in the middle of making a second dream catcher which will match their bedroom. Plus I had a custom Christmas ornament made with all their names on it. I can't wait!!! My friend is so going to cry. lol And I can't wait to see the girls and their son!
