http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/wave.gif Hey girly,
Hope you had a nice time on vac. Is DH back from his trip?! Just wanted to drop a quick note, let ya knowing I was thinking about ya http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/wink.gif
http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/heart.gif MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Thanks for thinking of me.

I got back late last night. DH will not be home until next Saturday. Does it bother you to have your DH away from home so much? I used to be a pretty independent person, actually like some alone time - but the house just seems kind of empty with just me and the cats and our bird! Even though I got to see him this weekend, it just seems odd not having him around.

I should be around mid-cycle on my break - thought maybe I was O late last week - I think before I caught up with DH though. But, yesterday I started getting hot flashes - not terrible like on Clomid, but certainly not a good sign. I really do think I'm full steam ahead on the menopause track.... but maybe this next cycle with both Clomid and Follistim can find those few remaining eggs in there. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif

I keep popping on the computer try to get through all the posts and my head is spinning trying to keep track of everyone and the ever changing situations.

How's everything with you?

http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/heart.gif thanks again

Okay - I went back and checked around - it looks like you've been up and down. Try not to be down before your official test date. I know we all do that testing early thing - it's insane http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/round.gif Your down to less than 2 days away, so try to hang on until then. I'll be thinking 'positive' thoughts for you -

BTW I saw your post on the progesterone - I think that's a really good result which is a good sign of a good ovulation - so you're headed the right direction. Before I did progesterone suppositories, I got one 4.4 and one 8 - so a 15 is great!

Good luck and prayers for a BFP on the 6th! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif

Thanks for all the positive thoughts, I appreciate them! With DH traveling it gets old fast that is for sure. We don't like it, and there are plenty of days when I feel quite lonely, but I guess we try not to focus on it because it is just the way it is right now, and probably for the next year or two! I am getting tired of chasing him down to BD w/ him, I feel like there is no romance in it! It seems to be all about a baby. I guess that is life since I never see him any other time!
I worry with him traveling though, due to going through all this stress of infertility and the fact that he gets lonely too, sometimes I worry if one day it is going to be too much for him and he'll make a terrible mistake. I fully trust him don't get me wrong, but hello this situation and infertility are not a good healthy mix! I am not too worried, but sometimes it is a passing thought...do you ever feel like that w/ DH being gone alot or am I being silly?!
Anyways, so do you think you caught DH at O time? Is that what you were saying?! What is the next step for the next cycle???
Thanks for the warm thoughts girl!

Yes, sometimes I worry. Especially because he travels a lot for pleasure. He has a lot more time off work than I do, so he goes a lot with groups of guys and it's often in places where there will be much temptation. I really don't think he would ever do anything - I trust him completely, but I think it's hard to always be rational.

And, since he's 10 years younger, I often start worrying about the long-term effect of all this infertility stuff. It sounds really warped, but I almost wish I had a problem that would normally impact a woman of any age - so every time the RE or nurse remind me that it's probably not that I have a problem, but just that I may be too old and going through menopause I cringe! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/frown.gif

But, that's what being female and insecure will do for you!

He always says no problem, he'll be happy either way, but.....

http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/heart.gif Thanks and keep the faith (both for BFP's and in our DH's)
