Let the BD commence! DH and I are so stoked to see where this month takes us. OPK was positive last night, but of course this is due to the trigger. That was the first time I got two definate lines. It was so amazing to see, I've never seen the test line so dark. LOL. EWCM is still present and I even showed it to DH, which may have been TMI, but he needs to know what's going on in my body. Now that I know I have 2 follies, it makes this even more exciting!
I was on the PAIF boards last night, and I saw one of the gals is pregnant with twins after going through her second medicated cycle. Her BFP resulted from Clomid + Trigger + TI. The same protocol we're on now. That made my night :) To make it even better, I found out she was team purple... pink + blue = purple. Get it? I told DH about it and that made him super happy. So our TI schedule is as follow: 24, 32 and 38 hrs after injection. Yep, hubby will be wore out. LOL.
I did notice some side effect symptoms from the trigger last night. Weird sensations in my pelvic area and a little pain (ovulation pain?). I was reading that sometimes women experience pregnancy-like symptoms after getting the trigger, so maybe that was what I was feeling. BBTs are still low, but I'm hoping for a spike and high temps afterwards ;) Until then, I will begin the prometrium on Monday, and can't test until the 26th.
That's all for today. I'm wearing my lucky socks again. Stick babies, stick.

Update - CD 15
2:30 pm
So here I am sitting in the waiting room, waiting on them to call me in for the u/s. DH is here with me playing games on his phone or something like that. I'm nervous and my plantar fascitis is giving me problems today. I hope this right now is the pit of my day.
Last night and this morning I have had EWCM. So now I have my hopes up. Still no positive OPK, but this afternoon's test was the darkest I've seen it. Today is CD 15 and fifteen is my lucky number. I'm wearing "lucky" socks and I feel good. Are my hopes too high? I hope not.
2:40pm
There's another pt here, sitting next to me, with a newborn in a stroller. Stay calm, Mely. I guess that's the price u pay coming to an OB/Gyn. What's taking so long? My appt was at 2pm.
3:00 pm
Just got done with u/s. Waiting on doc to follow-up. DH was there to hold my hand. Measurements looked good, but then again I may be mistaken like last time. She measured my endometrium, my uterus, my ovaries and my follicles. "Numbers look promising don't they?" I ask DH. He tells me he didn't know what the heck he was even looking at. LOL. I'm hoping for 2 good follies, but one would do just fine.
3:30 pm
Just got called in for my appt with doc. Waiting in exam room. Will post a quick video in a bit. FX!
4:00 pm
Still waiting on doc..... I'm going stir crazy and I'm starving :(
4:30 pm
It's a go! Doc just walked in not even spending FIVE minutes with us. "We're gonna go ahead and release it. Then u and ur husband are going to do ur business tomorrow night and the following night. Ur gonna wear him out. But he's a lucky man to be married to such a beautiful woman." Then walks out. No other info.
4:35 pm
Injection done :) In my right hip. It stings a little. They want me to wait 10 min more to make sure I don't have an allergic reaction to the meds. I ask nurse if I can get a little more information on my measurments so that I can journal about it. She says the other nurse will come in a bit to answer my questions.
Okay, so I guess they were using that to bill when I had insurance. Either way, hubby and I are on cloud 9! We can't wait to see what this year will bring us. And to think, my birthday is coming up in a few weeks. Hopefully I will have even better things to celebrate. BFP, BFP, BFP!!! Go Team ***! (Thanks L for helping me to coin the phrase) :)

4:55 pm
Doc comes in instead. I ask him about my measurments. He says "2". Umm, hello? Two what? Turns out I actually have 2 mature follicles! They both measure 2 cm (20 mm) which is awesome! One on the left AND one on the right! My endometrium lining is 8 mm, also great! "What about the prometrium? When do I start taking that?" I ask him. "Monday" he says. Again I ask him about TI. Yes, tomorrow and the day after. Don't do anything tonight. "Put it in the bank. Save it for tomorrow," he says. That was pretty much all for our visit today. As I was checking out, I saw my superbill had ICD 9 code 626.4, which I looked up.
2012 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 626.4
Irregular menstrual cycle
- Deviations from the normal process; e.g. delayed, difficult, profuse, scanty, unusual bleeding, etc.
- Short description: Irregular menstruation.

Work Update and FX for Tomorrow
I know I said I wouldn't update until Friday, but alas, here I am. I had a late lunch with a good friend of mine who is preggers and was updating her on all that's been going on these past few weeks. Thinking about it, made me kind of want to post my thoughts about today and my anticipation of tomorrow's appt. I got a phone call a couple of hours ago confirming my appt tomorrow. I really hadn't thought about it all day (until I happened to mention it to my friend earlier) and that is mainly due to the fact that I started my first day at my new job today.
I kind of started off on the wrong foot considering I was 20 minutes late for work... my first day... geeze what an impression that makes. And I know there's really no good excuse when you're trying to make a good impression, but I honestly underestimated traffic. Then there was this huge traffic jam on one of the main roads leading out of my subdivision. And I was so pissed sitting there, twiddling my thumbs, moving 5 feet every 5 minutes. After nearly 20 minutes sitting there hardly moving, I decided to veer off the main road and drive further out of the area just so I could hop on the tollway hoping the traffic was a little lighter. Well, the 10 minute drive to get to the damn tollway didn't help and just set me further back from the city, which in turn made me drive farther.... ughhh! Then there was traffic on the tollway to top it off. I tell ya, when it rain, it pours. Needless to say, as soon as I got a chance (waiting at a red light), I texted my boss and told him I was gonna be late and apologized in advanced. I was not a happy camper :( Luckily, the patient ended up cancelling their appt so I didn't have them waiting on me when I arrived at the office. But still... great 1st impression I made on the boss. Other than that little mess this morning, the rest of the day at the office pretty much ran smoothly. We had a little hiccup with our medical equipment, but were able to work through it. I need to mention this is a brand new medical office that just opened up a month ago, so they are still trying to work out the kinks. Anyways, I'm still trying to pick up some extra work and so I had a meeting scheduled with one of my previous employer's after finishing today's clinic. I knew she would welcome me back, but she made it pretty clear that she did not enjoy my little hiatuses of going back and forth working for her (I have quit there twice before due to a better job opportunities). Third time's a charm, eh? I wish I could make her see that. LOL... But either way I'm done with that other type of work. Though they pay really well and have good benefits, it is quite unstable, and I cannot afford to take another work risk. I need a steadier job and something that will work for me long-term especially when LO comes. I had to make her understand that and basically asked for my old job back (a little short of groveling, I might add). We ended up agreeing on a one-year contract to put her mind to ease so that she knows I'm serious. I don't like contracts but what can I do? I need my job back. So with that, I now have 3 jobs = 3 days a week. I start next week.
On to other thoughts... my 2nd follicle search is scheduled for tomorrow and I'm getting nervous. I just took an OPK and it was negative. I have a bit of watery CM but I'm not trying to read much into it. BBTs are still a little wonky and I haven't seen a definate O yet. I've been massaging and touching my left side hoping to bring positive energy to Lefty, though I don't know how much it will help. This may be our last chance for a medicated cycle this season due to our financial situation and it makes me a little sad. Of course we are not giving up TTC. We are just going back to doing it the "old-fashioned" way, so that means I will definately need to start on my WL. Perhaps in the summer, we can reasess our situation, see where we are at in terms of finances, school, work, weight loss and then maybe pay a visit to the doctor again. I'm seriously considering transferring to an RE (I know some may think I should've done this long, long ago but I had faith in my OB/GYN). I don't know if that would cost more considering I may be doing more monitoring. I am still hanging on to the script that Trudy wrote for me yesterday. In case this cycle was unsuccessful, she wrote me one for 100mg Clomid. I don't know if I will fill it, but will keep it tucked safely anyway. I feel sad ending today's entry on this note, but it is what it is. I'm just keeping my FX that cycle #2 is our cycle. Pretty please, with a cherry on top? ;)

Update Cycle #2
Today is CD13 and I just had a date with the vag cam. DH was with me today, but the procedure was still uncomfortable. Hubby is coming down with a cold of some sort, but I hope this doesn't inhibit our TI. So I got the scan, then we had to wait nearly 45 min for my appt with Trudy. She finally came to get us and tell us the news. Basically, I don't have any mature follicles as of yet, but one has the potential to grow in the next couple of days. On my right ovary, I only have one little bitty tiny follicle that measured 5mm. Too small to do anything for this cycle. On the left ovary, however, I have one that measured 14mm and that's the one she says can possibly grow bigger in the next few days. So she wants me to schedule another u/s for Friday, which is in 2 days, to see if it has grown any bigger. That will determine whether we trigger or wait until the next cycle. I'm keeping my fingers and toes tightly crossed that it's the first. This is the closest I've come so far. We still discussed what our next step will be should I not get my BFP this cycle :( I don't really want to think about it though. Essentially, she will increase the Clomid to 100mg for five days and run the follicle search again. I don't want to even think about moving forward with a 3rd cycle, because 1: that's already halfway to being done with using Clomid (it really only works within the first 6 cycles), 2: that's more money coming out of our pockets (we decided not to go with COBRA and so we're paying cash for everything), 3: that's waiting one more month (given I get AF on time) again. So that is that. I scheduled my scan for Friday afternoon, but this time I'm going to follow-up with the doc instead. Hubby and I were talking about the appt afterwards and he's really hopeful this cycle. I guess I'm just trying to be a realist and maybe I've been on the boards too long, but 14mm doesn't seem like that big a deal to me. But I'm trying to stay optimistic. DH says he's going to refer to it as "Lefty" in hopes of bringing some positive vibes to the situation. If anything, he made me smile.
In other news, I start my new job tomorrow. I'm excited about that. Weather has been kinda crappy and I hate driving when it's ugly outside. This new job is on the other side of town and I'm not looking forward to the drive. That just means I'll have to leave extra early tomorrow morning. Also, one of my old employers called me today. She's having issues with the tech she has now and more than likely gonna let him go. Guess who's coming to the rescue? We haven't discussed employment details yet, but I'm pretty sure whatever happens, it'll be in my favor. This doctor and I have a very close comraderie and I'm sure she'll be happy to have me back on her staff. So that's three PT jobs total and I'm working on getting 2 more, so hopefully that will keep us pretty comfortable, financially, in the meantime. It's still not FT, but it's close and that's fine with me. That's all for now. I'll update on Friday.

CD 11... Two Days til Monitoring
So today is CD 11 and I have yet to see a positive OPK. I forgot to do one yesterday, but either way, it was negative today. I did notice that my CM is getting better. I really haven't been checking it like I should. I keep forgetting. I checked it today because I've been noticing that I have evidence on my underwear, if you know what I mean. It was bordering between creamy (last night it was creamy) and watery. I put watery on FF and it automatically said that I ovulated today, even though I put a negative OPK. So maybe I should go back and change it to creamy. I dunno. I'll just leave it for now. We'll see what tomorrow brings.
I have two more days until my monitoring appt, and I'm getting nervous and excited at the same time. Nervous for the bad news, excited for the good. DH will be going with me this time, so hopefully he'll be bringing some of his lucky mojo with him. Also today, we begin TI. I still haven't been feeling too good since the job loss, but I hope things will change in the boudouir (sp?)
In other news, I got the job! It's only PT, but something is better than nothing. I start on Thursday, which is in three days. I told hubby, and he's happy. I also wrote an email to one of the companies that manufacture the medical equipment in my field of health care. They conduct learning workshops, and I basically wrote and asked them if I could be of any assistance to them during their workshops. Hoping this can jumpstart my educational/teaching opportunity. I sent them my CV and some studies I've done. I'm hoping I hear a positive response. I threw in some names of people I've met that I know are associated with them, so maybe that'll give me the boost that I need.
Other than that, no further updates. Haven't resumed my exercise regime like I planned. Perhaps tomorrow.

Blessings in Disguise
So today was my meeting with a potential employer. We met over lunch. The meeting went really well and he was impressed with my work history and experience. The meeting lasted longer than we both expected, but in a good way :) He basically hired me on the spot, but needed to run things through with his accountant, doctor, and office manager. Company is pretty new to the area and staff is kinda small. He said work would only be part-time with FT potential in the future. I told him that was perfect, since right now I'm only looking for PT. We discussed networking together since we have a couple of the same connections. I walked out of our meeting feeling really good.
Since I was in the area, I decided to stop by one of the doc's office I worked at with my other company. They have half-days on Friday, so I caught them just in time as they were locking up. Doc wasn't aware the extent of the company issues, and I explained that alot of us were laid off. He and I had developed a good comraderie, so I was pretty open about it with him. I told him I'd keep in touch since I'm pretty sure he will still need some of the services I provide. Plus he is one of my personal medical providers so I'm sure, I'm gonna want to stay in contact. He and his staff were sad to see me go, but hopefully we can work something out. I gave them all hugs.
On my way to pick up a couple of movies for this weekend, I got a call from the office manager/co-executive of the potential employer from today. She was really nice and we hit it off immediately. She works in a different city, but works from her home doing insurance billing, scheduling appointments, and basically running the office with what she can. Turns out that she used to work for my old company as well and left them just a little over a month ago after deciding not to return from maternity leave. Now she's a SAHM and tries to work from her home as much as possible. We both knew about each other, but never met. Funny how things work out. So our phone conversation lasted over an hour and we spoke about a multitude of things. Like I said, we really took to each other. She too was impressed with my knowledge and expertise. She said I'd make an excellent addition to the company. I also discovered that she is on the comittee that runs the board exams and education for my field of work. I haven't been very active with that society since they collect annual dues and plus I didn't have alot of time to dedicate to it. However, I thought that with her connection, it would be an excellent opportunity for me to jump into the educational aspect of what I do. Already, I will be meeting with the program director at one of the colleges that offers degree programs in my field. So with this new connection, I am thinking of doing some teaching work on the side (and also try to put in to work as a board examiner) as well as get clinical experience with the new job. I think it would offer the perfect balance. It still doesn't help the issue of getting FT benefits like medical insurance. We still have a few months to figure it out and hopefully we can work out something to get on DH's company's insurance. We'll see. I'm not worried about it at the moment. So I'm super excited to start this new venture and I'm on cloud 9 right about now.
Finally, I called my doc's office to inquire about the self pay services since I still plan on going next Wed for my monitoring. I don't know why I thought that it would be hugely expensive, and I was waiting for the blow. As it turns out, they provide a 20% discount for office visits for cash paying patients! So that's really good. Plus I would get $100 off the u/s cost. She quoted me $120 for the office visit and $100 for the u/s, so I'd be out of pocket $220 for that day. Not bad, I can deal with that. So again I'm super excited and optimistic. Please don't let me down follies. That's all I need, another let down to add to my crappy holiday news. Keeping FX! Will update soon.
Look what came in the mail the other day. 50 pk OPK and 3pk digital HPTs. Yay for TTC! :p lol

CD 7 and Pic Share
Well today is CD7 and I just took my last dose of Clomid for this cycle. Now we wait and see what follies will brew. The Crazies have simmered down some and I feel a little more myself. Still no job, but it's only been a week. I have a meeting with a potential employer tomorrow, so I will update on that later. I feel pretty decent, considering I've been laid off. I mean, I still have my 5 hours a week Saturday job and hopefully soon, the unemployment benefits will kick in. I'm remaining pretty optimistic that I will find something soon. Also called one of the community colleges that offers programs in my field and the director sounded interested in what I had to offer. So I should be meeting with her in a couple of weeks as well. DH and I discussed me perhaps working part-time. I think this would be better for us to adapt after LO comes. I don't know where that will leave us financially, but I don't want to stress too much about it. I think we can manage a couple of years until hubby finishes school. Also I think I've decided not to go with the COBRA insurance after all. It's really expensive and the lower premiums have high deductibles, that I might as well just pay cash instead. Plus we may only be needing it for a month or two. I don't know what my prescriptions will cost, but again not too worried about it. But I'm going to try and use a drug savings card. I didn't work out today. I'm kinda just taking it easy and relaxing this week. I promised myself I'd start next week if not this weekend. Other than that just waiting on CD13 when I will get the u/s. I will be calling my doc's office tomorrow and getting quotes for self pay. No real update. Same old, same old.
Until next time, I want to leave you with this pic one of the gals on TB found. I needed a little laugh.
