Thank you, body.

It even confuses the FF software! What the hell is this:

SO AWESOME. Yay for random fertile days that aren't really fertile days, but they think it's a fertile day because if I was normal then it would be a fertile day, but I'm not so HA!

HPT Experiment

Someone on a message board I go on said that once your hcg gets high it helps to dilute with water.

I give you, HPT PEE EXPERIMENT:

Top test is 100% Urine, followed by:
75% urine, 25% water,
50% urine, 50% water, and
25% urine, 75% water:

After 5 minutes:

I think 50/50 wins it, what do you think?

6 weeks, heart beat 101 <3

6 weeks 5 days, heart beat 138

I have had some bleeding. If you look to the left of the baby's sack, you can see my hematoma.

Worry Wart

I'm scared of going to work or doing anything too strenuous. I am exhausted. I don't want to do anything that could hurt the baby. I know I'm being irrational (at least partly), but I don't care. I wish I could wrap myself in bubble wrap and lay in bed for the next 8 months.

Kyle is so excited. It's really lovely. I told my mom:

And we are telling my dad tonight. He invited us up for dinner.

I am terrified of something going wrong.

So...

I am going crazy right now. I know I posted something today (5 February) about my RE stuff, but we aren't going to do an IUI, because

I AM GROWING A PERSON.

I'm feeling so tired/run down. I hurt. I am having uteran cramping like nobodies business. It's more disconcerting than painful. I know it's normal, but bleh.

Super happy. Work has been going well I think. Standing for long periods of time is super challenging though.

I wish my OPK's hadn't gone all wonky. I wish I knew exactly what my O date was. :/ I'm guessing it was around the 21st. I was having twinges in both ovaries.

Progression Pics

I had my first beta yesterday. The number was nice and high, 742. I go back tomorrow for my 2nd beta. I am super excited about it. I hope it doubled well, but from my tests it looks like it will.

I forgot to update!

Silly me! So the doctors appointment went really well. Most of the results were normal, except I had a couple of hormone things that were low (like testosterone).

Egg quality is good, egg reserve is good (she said really good considering I have PCOS and lots of follies).

She went over the HSG results, and apparently she saw some dye moving through the right tube, so it might not be blocked after all! The plan we made was to wait for CD 1 and then start Femara on CD 3, at a higher dose since we are dealing with insurance limitations.

I have an appointment on the 21st to go over this next cycle and see how things are going, as well as do a TV ultrasound to check for eggies from the Femara, and if they're ready do a trigger and IUI next day.
