How Do You Like Them Apples

Today is 9dp3dt and I'm hanging in there. Five more days...I can do it. I'm happy to report that I've resisted and have not POAS...I like my PUPO bubble and I'm not ready for it to burst just yet! As far as symptoms go...

  • vivid, vivid dreams that I remember even days later. They are happening every night now so between that and getting up to pee...not resting as well as I'd like.
  • Tired...falling asleep much earlier than I normally would
  • The girls are at least an A cup now and no longer AA but let's face it....an A cup on a 36 year old woman...way too small if you ask me...lol. Why my mother decided to not pass the boob gene along, I will never know!
Progesterone or Pregnancy? 

To keep occupied today we decided to go apple picking and I must say...it was quite relaxing and the weather was amazing.



We did come home with a bushel and a half. Just how many apples is a bushel and a half....

That's A LOT of apples

Adam's plan is to make apple juice, cider, butter, sauce and I'm gonna make me some pies!

I hope your Sunday was relaxing.

    I hope you're hanging in there! Glad to see you've resisted the POAS. Where did you go apple picking? I have an urge to go too!

    I'm hanging in there but it's getting harder and harder as the week rolls on. I just keep telling myself...three more days!

    It was a place in Barrhaven just off of Jockvale. They have Spartan, Cortland, Mac and another I think. You guys should go! Last night Adam made apple sauce...yum!

Keeping Secrets

Image
I've been keeping a secret. I'm not even going to make you wait. I'm just going to come out and say it. I really don't like when people say, "Hey, I have news" and then ramble on for fifteen minutes about how they didn't know how to tell you, and would you like the good news or the bad news first. I mean, if you don't know how to tell me, then maybe you should have thought about it a little bit more before you brought it up, because now I'm just sitting here waiting while you find the perfect words to share news that...let's be honest...probably doesn't impact me in the slightest. And as for the good news/bad news question? What do you think? If you're really asking, I'd rather not hear the bad news at all. Because who wants to hear bad news? Unless it's just "bad" relative to the good news, but not really all that bad in its own right, well then I guess I wouldn't mind hearing it. And I might like to hear it first...

Dilemma

Image
I’m having a bit of a dilemma. Which is putting it mildly. I am not sure whether to shut the factory down for good, or keep it chugging along in its pitiful, yet marginally functioning state. If things were normal, if *I* was normal (cue hysterical laughter here), then I might be happy to let things chug along as they were and see what happens. But things (my body and I) are far from normal and so I feel like I need to make a decision either way. Which really sucks and makes me feel a renewed sense of frustration, irritation and mourning for the sorry state of affairs of my reproductive bits. We recently had an appointment with our RE to discuss our options and see where we stand. It was great to touch base with Dr. L but as expected, nothing has really changed. My fertility has been on a fairly rapid decline and there's not much we can do to change that (FSH last tested at 20). It was good to hear that my tubes are open and that my uterus appears to be in good shape but despit...

Start Spreading The News...

My trip to New York City was completely amazing but I'm not going to lie....the re-entry to life has been difficult this past two days. After 5 days away I thought I'd return refreshed and ready to jump back onto the work/life wagon...I was wrong. Is it Friday yet? The highlights of my trip were many. But first...I had a moment. When we made it to the hotel, the emotions that had been building the entire day and week came bursting out and I cried and cried. Oh, how I cried! Uncontrollable, sloppy, snotty bawling that pretty much claimed an entire box of tissues. You see, the morning that we left my period started...a full 5 days early. I was crushed. I was sure that this was THE cycle. My emotions got the better of me but I quickly re-grouped and a little voice chimed up saying, “Go splash water on your face and get out! Go and tackle your NYC bucket list head on” And tackle we did! In short, we took in two shows on Broadway, made a visit to the 9/11 Memorial, saw the Statue of...
