Swiss Chalet...Always so good for so little...

So I keep seeing these commercials for Swiss Chalet....Chicken, salad some other stuff AND it COMES with an ice cream sundae for 11.99 CAD....So tonight I will no longer be a Swiss Chalet virgin. I have never been.

I am still having waves of nausea, and still doing the poke test....No craving yet, except for Swiss Chalet. haa haa

Still 10 more days until the u/s. Patience girly, patience.

Holy nausea batman!

Ok....so I haven't really had any m/s but then again it's still early in our pg. But TODAY! Ughhh.....I haven't been feeling so well at all!

I've had a couple of bouts with diarrhea the last couple of nights. And for some reason I don't mind. I rather have the runs than constipation.

Had a quick appt with the family Dr. He's sooooo excited for us. He's going to find us his best OBGYN to take care of us. And we know he will. He takes such good care of us.

No real cravings as I always crave different food. Can't tell if I am more tired, because I am always sooo tired. And as for hungry...I can always eat....So do I feel any different? Well I continue to do the poke test and DH usually does a nip test once a day. And yep...those bb are sore.

Second Number

So 20dpIUI = 3127

Thinking that is more than good. But I don't know a lot about numbers...Anyone?

A Grannie Moment

Had a Grannie moment tonight. Shed some tears.

I miss you Grannie. Please take care of our growing baby.

We love you!!!

I wanted to scream...

...as loud as I could...to tell everyone I was/am pregnant.

My parents came over for dinner tonight. And it took a lot not to tell them. But like last time we are waiting until at least month 4. Still 3 months to go.

I feel a lumpy on the left of my pelvic region (only when I am standing). Feels like an egg. Trying not to worry. Hoping it's nothing.

Got the call...

So the clinic just called....

And it's confirmed. It's a POSITIVE.

Yay!

Numbers were: 636. Almost 2 times higher than my numbers back in Feb...

Woo Hoo...This is sooooooo exciting.

Second Blood Work July 20
First u/s Aug 6

In surreal world....

So I broke down....

So let's explain something first:

1st: Getting pregnant without help is so vastly different than getting help to become pregnant. Why? Because when you don't plan on getting pg, you aren't worrying if you are or if you aren't pg. Where as going in for and IUI or IVF you know there is a 50/50 chance that you either are or aren't. And those 2 weeks from when the procedure happens to when you get your first b/w done to find out is so excruciating worry some. Over analyzing every symptom, worrying about any kind of leakage, and restraining from buying a home pregnancy test (HPT), the list goes on.

The clinic I go to makes us wait 16 days after IUI. And anyone who reads my blog knows that I went for THE blood work today to find out, but that I've also had no symptoms, and constant worrying.

So I checked the home phone for messages every 30 minutes, and hardly left my desk at work today, carried my cell phone with me everywhere I went....And NO phone call. AArgggghhhhh.

I've waited 16 days, isn't that long enuf...Why couldn't you have called.

So what happened? We broke down. We did something very bad, something that we didn't do last IUI until after we found out....Something I swore I wouldn't do. But 16 days already...Come on!

We bought a HPT.

And it was positive. Woo FREAKING Hooo....

Needless to say we are super excited....But we want the official confirmation tomorrow form the clinic.

Maybe having no symptoms this go around was a really good sign for things to come.

I'm going to step off cloud 9 for now, and drift off to sleep dreaming of carrying to full term....Until tomorrow my dear readers.

13dpIUI

So today marks 13dpIUI..And bb are still sore. Not spotting at all, and no cramps.

We reamin hopeful. But a little nervous.

B/W on Thursday as long as AF doesn't show. Fingers crossed for us.

Power of positive thinking "We are pregnant"

TGIF

Today is 10dpIUI, and not symptoms like last time...Just some sore breasts. Taking that as a good sign. Sometimes there isn't always symptoms. I also feel something hard on my left pelvic area...I'm thinking I can really feel my ovary.

Still 6 days away from blood work to find out if we are pg. But we only go for b/w as long as AF doesn't show her ugly face. So stay away.

I so wanna be knocked up. Come on babies....

Jacko - RIP

So, we've been talking about this. Now...Michael Jackson was the King of Pop during his prime....And all I hear on the news these days is how great Jackson is....

And we hate to judge people BUT

People have we forgotten he is a child molestor?

We're just sayin....

Tummy Ache

Wow! This tummy ache is just not going away. It seems to be getting worse.
I hope that's not a sign.

Holy tummy ache batman....

I woke up today with a really bad tummy ache. Hopefully it's nothing...And hopefully things are working in there.

Come on BFP...

4dpIUI

It's the start of 4dp IUI. Nothing out of the ordinary to report. My ovaries ocassionally give me pains. And I have gas.
Not sure if it's something I ate...but it sure feels like I need to mufty©, when my ovaries tent to flare up...

Happy Canada Day!!!

To all my fellow Canadians. Best Country in the world to live in.
