I just got back from my appt w/the fertility doc. Lets just say that I have to have a lot of tests done!!! LoL!!! Like..getting a blood test done on the 3rd day of my period. Then doing the HSG test in the 21st day of my cycle. Then I have to be tested for..HIV, Hepatitis B & C, Syphilis, and Cystic Fibrosis. And if I do have PCOS, they can put me on Clomid to jump start my ovulation, and it will help with getting pregnant. And if that doesnt work...then I can take metfiorm & clomid together. But if its a spermie problem..then we'll have to do IVF. Which can get expensive. But he said that since I'm so young, I have a better chance of getting pregnant with IVF. For my age group its like a 50% chance. I think he said the same w/clomid. Which btw..some of my friends have taken it..and they've all had babies. Ohh..and I have to do all those tests right? Well..Fonzo just has to do one test. And you can pretty much just guess what that test is. Lucky jerk..LOL!!!
Anyways..I'm expecting to start next week. However..they have to submit paperwork to our insurance..and this is the first time they're dealing with Tricare..and we're like the first couple w/tricare..so its a learning experience for us all..lol. But ya..the paperwork should be back in like 2 weeks. So I dont have to do my testing until April.
OHH..and get this..the financial lady's name is Darlene (like my mom...she also likes cats) and my nurses name is Janice. Which was the name of my mom's best friend..who gave my mom & I 2 cats, lol. Pretty weird huh?? Fonzo says its a good sign.
OKay...I'm gonna go take a nap now. I feel that a lot of the stress has left my body and I can finally relax, lol.

I forgot to add earlier that I stepped on the scale this morning and I am down 2.6 pounds from last week!!!!
I guess those daily walks with the kids have been working! I noticed that I had lost some weight when I put on my jeans, and they are getting looser on me already! and then I put on my pajamas, that I just got, and they are already feeling loose on me. (mind you there is a ribbon to tie on the pants, and I felt like they were going to fall down on me!)

Hola!!!
Hola.
I'm still here. Barely. lol. TG its MY Friday! Its been bea-utiful here, only when I am at work or sleeping. Then when I am off it gets colder. GRRRR. Guess that is how it goes though, right?
Unpacking is going well, slow. But I guess it will get done eventually.......DH's Aunt is in the hospital in intesive care and is not doing well. So we are just praying that she pulls through. Her vains keep collasping and they can't get a needle in so they are putting in a SWAN.........
Francie -- That is great and I wish you luck! My appt with my RE was supposed to be next Thursday, but they called and cancelled, so I have to reschedule. I hope it doesn't take long to get in. I have had all those tests done and the HSG totally sucks!! But its one that you have to have. I have taken the Clomid and the Met and it did not work for me. So I am beyond that. Yeah it totally stinks that our guys only have to do one test and we have several to go through. I wish you luck and I hope that the Clomid works for you!!! I think it is a good sign that the financial lady's name is your mom's name and the nurses was her best friends. Definitely a good sign! So I will keep thinking lots of +++++++++ for you!!!! Me and you will have our babies real soon, I can feel it!!! If you ever wanna chat or just someone to listen, IM or email me! BIG
Sue -- We have an ant problem at our house so its a constant battle to keep things tidy. We have bought some ant traps and sprayed inside and outside the house. I hope it works. Our Unpacking seems to be non-ending. I want to try to get as much done this weekend as I can. I hope you can get some Zzzz's soon!!!
Mindee -- I love the Tatoo GF! Very nice!
Hey Jules! Shake it baby, shake it!!!!
Hi to everybody else out there!!! I hope your all well!!!

Sassy~Sorry to hear about your DH's aunt. I hope she gets better too. What is SWAN?? That sucks that they cancelled and you have to reschedule!! I've had to reschedule my appt a couple of times. It was finally a relief to just go in and sit with the doc. With the HSG, they told me to take some motrin before having it done. I was all thinking, "motrin doesnt do crap for me" LoL!! I wish they would just put me under. I had feeling pain. That sucks that Clomid & Met didnt work for you. Theres always IVF. Clomid alone didnt work for my friend..but when she took them together, she finally got pregnant. She miscarried though..and then went off them for awhile. And then got pregnant on her own, lol. YES!! We will have babies soon!!!!!!!!!!! I can feel it too!!!!!!

Happy Thursday Everyone
Have been having computer issues...so I hope that this works.
Not much going on here. Trying to get everything done before we go on vacation next weekend.
Francie good luck with all your tests.
Sassy - Hugs to your DH aunt. Hope all goes well.
Sue - Could you come to my house and crack the whip for me to get this all done please?
Jules - Haven't done Jillians workout yet, but DD did it and she says its intense. Her legs were sore for 2 days. She liked it.
Mindee-I like the tattoo. What is a tattoo party? Congrats on the loss.
Katy- WTG on the exercise and the carbs. When the scale finally moves for you, and it will, you will see a good loss.
Cristina and Susan how is everything going in your little corners?
Tammy, Robin, Asia, Michelle hello to you all. Hope life is good for you.
It is report card day today. Can't wait to see what Cole's says. He was sent to the principles office on Friday....First real nice day that we have had for months....snow was perfect for making snowmen, and of course throwing snowballs....yes throwing snowballs is a big no no and you do get sent to see the principle and get into trouble for throwing snowballs.
Chat with you all later.

hello ladies!!!
nothing really new here......just doing our laundry, towels, some blankets, and the boys clothes from yesterday (typical boys just HAD to find all the puddles and proceed to jump in them!). I got those all in the washers now, and I got a shower in before I got all that started.
now I am just checking my email and then I will be uploading some songs onto my MP3 player! I love mine, and it comes in real handy when I have to do laundry.....I take it over there with me to pass the time while I am folding it all!
Kathy~ A tattoo party is basically the same as a tupperware party, but you get tattoos instead of burping tupperware.

Happy Spring ladies. Yes, it is finally here.
Don't know about you, but it turned colder here again today. It is supposed to warm up and start the Spring rains on Sunday.
Hope everyone is enjoying the day. I have much to do, so will be back later.
Where are you all??

Mindee--Teri wants another tattoo--she's obsessed..
Kathy--thanks for the sweet card--our families really are twins--scary huh...l didn't do any of the ybb dvd's last night--on Wed. I gave blood yesterday so I didn't do anything last night.
Francie--I am really hoping this works fast for you and by next year at this time you have your own sweet little baby to love...The trip out to AZ sounds fun. Hubby would like to go. His cousins live out there. One is a firefighter out of I believe Flagstaff.
Sassy--I have been shaking it and everything is still jiggly, but I love the workouts and the instructors so I am keeping it up. Yuck about the ants--put some dishsoap on your finger and run it along the window and door sills especially in the kitchen. Sorry to hear about your aunt.
Sue-Yard work counts as exercise to me--Dominic loves it outside which makes it easier to do yard work. He "helps" pick up sticks.
Katy--my coworker and her husband have been going to the gym faithfully 4-5 days a week-an hour to two each time and sweating alot, but neither have lost pounds though I can see a difference in the way they both look.
Cristina & SuzyQ--miss you both...
Mom is starting to get a really dry mouth and a sore--the doctor--who we love as been so great. He met her when she was doing radiation this morning and talked to her and gave her a perscription to help with the dry mouth.
I gave blood at a blood drive at work yesterday and hubby gave blood too, but not at the drive--he cut himself on a machine and had to go get 10 stitches.
Well off to the post office, bank, library, get my eyebrows waxed and the grocery store..pretty much in that order....

Hello...
JULES...lots of hugs to your momma. And sorry to hear about Jerry, hope he's doing okay today. You reminded me that I need to give blood...me and the hubby keep meaning to but just haven't done it yet, sad.
KATHY...sounds like you have been busy, busy, busy! Don't say that four letter word! We don't want no stinkin' snow around here. Weather is weird enough to say the least...70's and 80 a couple of days and then drops to the 50's & 60's...with the wind it makes it chilly, very chilly.
FRANCIE...sending lots of good vibes and baby wishes for you and Fonzo! And yeah, it sux we have to do all the testing and they only have one thing to do, lol...been there, done that. And clomid din't work for me either...but I am as old as dirt so...you've got your age on your side. Hope you had fun at the Twilght thingy.
Well, nothing going on with me as usual...same old stuff. It's been nice getting to walk outdoors. The hubby has been home for two days and we are readying for another open house...with the yard anyway. There's a couple of things we will do inside, when we get to it. Will probably end up staying here longer than we want-oh well, that's life...we don't always get what we want do we? Of course deep down I would be just fine with not moving, lol...just not ready to but I know we need to so. Anyway...hello to everyone else Have a great weekend!

well, I am slowly getting myself together.....although I am still in my pajamas. sucks that I was up half the night in the bathroom.....and then Brandon threw up twice. I got him taken care of and I was about to take another dose of Pepto Bismal before going back to bed, and it was then my turn to throw up. Brandon is doing better, but I kept him home from school since God only knows what time he was up until! I went back to bed at about 3:30 this morning, and I think him and Logan were asleep. Tommy got up for work and Princess Marissa was up bright and early for daddy.
Tommy had wanted to go out to eat tonight just the two of us, but with me not feeling well I asked him if I could get a rain check on it. He was disappointed, but he understood. I asked him to bring me home some gatorade when he leaves work. He has to work tomorrow, so I am hoping that I am feeling better tomorrow! When I first got up at 11 this morning, (good thing I called in for Brandon!) putting my socks on were a chore in itself. I am moving a little quicker, BUT I am still not 100% yet.
Francie~ I have been to two tattoo parties, and both of the ones that I have been to have been safe. There are some sketchy tattoo artists out there.....but both of the ones that have done my work at the tattoo parties were very clean and washed down every surface even if it hadn't been touched! He pulled out all the supplies right in front of you and so that you could see that he wasn't reusing them.
Sue~ It is a little bit colder around here.....but it isn't winter freeze cold, so that is good!
Jules~ Tattoos are very addictive!! I have four and I am already thinking of what I want to get done next!!! lots of to your mom! I have only given blood once, and that was my senior year in high school. I have been wanting to give blood ever since then, but they won't let you give blood if you have given birth or gotten a tattoo in the previous year. So, I have been out of the running for the past almost 6 years.
Cristina~ We are the same way! we so need to move, but for one we don't have the money and two, I don't want to move Brandon during the school year. And now, it is looking more and more like he will be going to kindergarten next year. (we will know for sure at his IEP on April 3rd)
