Guess What???

Since only a few people read this I think it's safe to post here. I'm prego!!! I can't believe it!! I started testing at 7dpo, I know too early, but a shadow was showing up. It wouldn't show till after the time limit so I just ignored it but it happened every time I tested. Each day the shadow got a teensy bit darker. Yesterday I was seeing much more of a line even though it's still faint. I grabbed a digi and it say'd "PREGNANT" @ 10dpo. SWEET!!

I went in for my Beta and Progesterone draw today. I should have the results Monday, hoping for high numbers on the Progesterone. I know the Beta won't be too high since it's sooooo early but I hope the number is average.

So far my symptoms are:
Slightly swollen boobs, a tiny bit of nausea and really tired. I'd say I'm peeing a lot but I do that to begin with. I have a bladder the size of a pea. I'm really fun to go on road trips with :)

For now I'm keeping this info hush hush. No posting on myspace or facebook about it. I might make it public when I feel more safe about the pregnancy.

My Ovaries Are Kicking Ass

First of all congrats to my ovaries for their hard work and I say HARD WORK because boy did I feel it! Let's say it felt like I was dropping a mondo dinosaur egg LOL. I say "dropping" as if I'm a chicken laying an egg ha ha. Hopefully I got 1 really good egg out...who knows it could be 2 :) After starting to think this cycle was done and the Clomid didn't work, I got a positive ovulation test yesterday. Woot Woot!! I'm pretty sure I ovulated today (cd20) based on the discomfort...aka mondo dinosaur egg. We've done everything perfect. You can just call us the energizer bunnies he he. So I now happily take my seat in the two week wait and I'm sure within the next few days I'll be pulling my hair out and driving myself nuts with the anticipation. Oye I love & hate the 2ww.

Need to Stay Positive

I had more tracers over the last couple days. They only lasted a few minutes but I've read that if you experience vision problems with Clomid you should stop as it could cause permanent damage. Uggghh. I need to believe that this cycle will work. If not, I might be able to try Femara, similar to Clomid. The only next step after that is injectables, which could be between $2,000-$5,000 per cycle. I always feel like every time things are getting better something comes along and has to knock me back down. I can feel my mood slipping but I really need to stay positive about this cycle.

I'm a little worried about the chances of having multiples on Clomid but if we moved to injectables that's like a 25% chance. You're almost guaranteed to have multiples. Not that I would mind, it's just all about the babies health. They will most likely deliver early and could have potential problems. I'm already maxed out with current worries I can't add anymore to the mix. Why does this have to be so difficult. There are so many undeserving woman out there pregnant that don't even want a child. I don't get what Gods plan is.

Holy Hallucinations Batman!!

Last night was CRAAAAAZY. While I was trying to sleep, every time I'd move my hand/arm in front of my face I'd see tracers. YIKES! I woke up later at 3am, went to the bathroom and as soon as I turned on the light, it was like tracer city. I could follow the patterns with the movement of any body parts. I moved around for about 10 minutes and it wouldn't go away, so I just figured go sleep it off. I woke up this am and was fine. I let Dr. Sofya know what happened and she's okay with it for now but if it keeps up we might have to change plans if this cycle is a bust. My moods have been GREAT though, I feel like I'm euphoric :)

Clomid So Far

I'll be taking my 4th pill later today. So far I haven't had any bad side effects. My moods have been great, but I'm usually pretty stable during the first couple weeks of my cycle any way. I've had some hot flashes I guess. I'm usually pretty cold, but the last couple days I've been feeling hotter. Even though I take my pill at 3:30pm, the hot flashes are the most at night. I wake up soaked in sweat and kicking off the covers. I know it's definitely not hot in the house.

Dr. Sofya said to start with the OPKs on CD10. Today is CD7. I think I'll start today so I can see how my LH is doing, plus I've got like over 100+ OPKs, might as well use them up. I'm hoping I wont need them again after this cycle :)
