Donna Yay for Healthy new babies! Sounds like you have a wonderful little nephew. Too bad his dad missed it.

Enjoy the new addition to your family. He is lucky to have you!

Quick update on me:
Well, DH and I had a major crisis in our hand a couple of weeks ago. Let's just say that his ties with his family are cut for life. He will not survive another interaction with them...he almost didn't after this one. We are O.K. now, but it's going to be a slow recovery for us.
Food wise, it is pretty good. I'm making smarter choices. It's also working out since I lost 12lbs in about 2.5 weeks.
We are now just waiting patiently for July 10th, when we go see our RE again. Then we will see what will happen next.
Donna- Enjoy that little bundle of joy. They grow up so fast.I remember every second of my sister's delivery (from her water breaking to holding my god-child). My sister was in the same situation as your SIL; when she gave birth , her mariage was in the process of divorce too.
irisheyes213- I keep lookig for that fertility fountain but I think it's as well hidden as the fountain of youth. If also been fighthing with my inssurance about paying for the SA test (they payed for 3 out of 4)
Alba- I cannot wait to see the pictures. Congrats!
Everyone else, may all your efforts be seen, may all your dreams come true.

Where is everybody? I have been busy enjoying my new nephew, he lost about 8 oz before coming home, but now is eating like a little tazmanian devil!! He is so cute, and I got to feed him twice yesterday. He is at his other grandparents right now, and I can't wait for him to come back!!
Anyway, have been doing good on plan, I have my brothers grad. party tomorrow, so I will probably be bad there, lol. But i will probably get in the pool, so it will all even out, lol.
Right now, I am just waiting to O, as I finished my clomid about 5 days ago. Hopefully it will be soon.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Hugs,
Donna

Hi Guys!
Sorry I havent written in a while. Things have been super super crazy. HOpe everyone is doing well.
Shel - how'd the diet go this week?
Donna - I bet you wanted to kiss that baby's face off. When my nephew was born, I thought to my self how could something so sweet come from someone so dang sickning (my brother)! He's 4 now and my brother is now 24 and my brother is still a brat but that child melts my heart everytime I am around him!
Talk with everyone soon!

I am still here too!! Things have been nuts for a couple of days. My FIL had his heart cath on Mon. and we took him. He is fine. I have been spending every minute I can with my new nephew. I have been bad the past couple of days on sticking to plan, but am getting right back on in the morning.
Hugs,
Donna

Good Morning Fellow Cysters! 
I hope all is well with you all. I have been on this emotional rollercoaster lately. Lots of ups and downs. I feel like I'm losing it, but I imagine its due to my hormones being all out of wack. 
I have an appt with my gyn. in August, but I may need to see her sooner than that if this keeps up and also my TOM has been absent for a couple months now and nope not preggers, I've checked.
Of course that WOULD explain a whole lot. (IF I was, but I'm not..) I have moments that I will be going through the day/night and all of a sudden have to go to the bathroom (if at work) and will just starting  Then the next moment I'm laughing and smiling. Who knows...............I think PCOS makes you a bit nutty. 
Anyways. I hope you all have a Great Day!

Well, I went for my pregnancy test this morning and now I'm waiting for the results. They told me to call after 2, and the girl is out of the office (go figure)...so she's supposedly going to call me back (I've heard that a few times before!). I hate it how they always manage to leave you hanging at a crucial moment....an always on a Friday!
I've had a very strange craving all week...for a nice glass of wine. How strange...and how cruel that I can't have it until I find out the results! If they are negative, I'll be having a nice glass or two out on the patio tonight!
Oh, does anyone know how to add a picture? I wanted to post a pic of the puppy, but I can't figure out how.
UPDATE: Just got my results...negative

Ok I have a question for everyone. I read somewhere that a symptom for PCOS is that you are forgetful.
I've noticed a lot lately that I forget things easily from one moment to the next. I'll be talking to someone and then they'll ask me what I just said and I'll have no clue. Or I'll want to do something one moment and then a second later, I'll forget what I wanted to do. It happens A LOT, multiple times a day. Does anyone else have this? I know it happens when you get older but c'mon I'm only 31

Hey!! Maybe that's my problem! I haven't heard that forgetfulness is a symptom of PCOS, but it would make sense. I forget everything! It's so bad that my husband is constantly making fun of me over it. My long term memory is great, but I have trouble remembering what I had for lunch today, etc. Sometimes I ask the same question about 3 times before I remember the answer!

ksc Sorry to hear about your test.
nelie yes that is one of the symptoms that you can have. I don't remember the exact term of it but somewhere I read it is also like a brain fog type thing because of extra/not enough hormones.
--------------------------------------------------------
News on my end...I gained weight while on vacation or due to af or both. eh...I don't really care. the scale said I was up and I went off the deep end for the last several days. In fact...I think we are taking a break from TTC. The timing just is not right and it is too hard to deal with it right now. Dh has to go for a follow up consultation and something about a joint consultation and well............ I just don't wanna. Which means it is not the right time.
Who knows...I may change my mind tomorrow.
Have a wonderful holiday weekend to the canucks and yankees!
