desert!!!! that video is f*cking awesome! you two are such an inspiration...for so many reasons. thanks for sharing it and giving all of us here on QC a peek at that special moment. btw...i think i finally found the perfect thing for your LO :)
cananny -- woohooo! hooray for perfect timing! i really hope this is your month, and that there's a BFP waiting for you in two weeks.
anna -- blah to AF, but at least your DP gets to have some wine and sushi in before having to succumb to the dearth of deliciousness (which will hopefully start in February and continue until sometime around Halloween).
invitn -- aaah the busy donor dilemma....it's nerve-wracking, isn't it? when DP and i first started trying last year, our only donor was so busy (and absent-minded) that he wouldn't respond to our texts or emails until a few hours before coming over....and then he was usually 2-5 hours late. at first we were both a wreck and freaked out about it, but eventually we just realized there was nothing we could to do to change him, so we got a more zen attitude (and a second, completely unflaky donor) i hope your guy gets his behind in gear and sends you those test results asap. and i'm so happy to hear about *your* most recent test results. it sounds like we are a bit alike, as i have a tendency to start seeing everything as black and hopeless when i have minor setbacks. but DP keeps reminding me of how far we've come in the last two years after all the setbacks and obstacles we've dealt with. so, yeah, like i keep telling myself: just keep breathing....it will happen for you.
outdoorsy -- this lovely little place is pretty addictive, eh? you're around dpo 12 now, no? are you really waiting to test until tuesday? any new symptoms? fingers crossed for a BFP whenever you do decide to poas!
planet -- wow, those sound like some promising signs. i remember omom (who's now in her third trimester!) saying that she had a very hopeful, positive feeling about her insemination the month she got pregnant. you're going to post a picture of that postive pee-stick tomorrow, right?
dandy -- what willpower! i second what carmen says. let us know when you know something. and fingers crossed super tight for you!
rs -- what excellent news! good luck with the IUI on Friday. with two follies of that size you could possibly end up ovulating both of them. could there be twins in your future?
lise -- how did it go and how are you feeling? *more hugs and quick-healing vibes*
afm ... so you've heard of sleepwalking, sleeptalking and even sleepdriving, right? well, last night i got to experience DP sleeptemping. at around 2:30am as i was lying there lost in my insomniac thoughts, DP suddenly reached up, grabbed her thermometer and took her temperature. the beeping finally woke her up enough for her to realize that it wasn't quite time yet. i had a good, but quiet laugh over it. aah, the fun of TTC.
i was thinking maybe we should restart the Question of the Day (QOTD) thing that we have done in the past. last year i remember LibraryLady (waving to the redheaded bookworm and her redheaded DD) talking about a dream she had where she was peeing in cups and stacking them in a pyramid (or some such thing). so the question is.. what is the funniest/weirdest/most baffling dream or experience you've had related to TTC?
