Pity Party of One...Your table is now ready

Well, as only Mother Nature could deliver the news, thus it was delivered.  
I tested on Wednesday (after what we now know was Mexican food induced nausea:)

I tested on Sunday, because, well it was Sunday and things shoulda been happening:

(Sorry for the blurriness, was taken w/ my phone...but you can get the "one line" gist of the negative-ness!)

And then as to add insult to injury, probably not 15 mins after testing on Sunday came the obvious proof.
So, while September was fun, it's back to the drawing board.  However the part that really bums me out is that I will be gone during the "important" week of October in San Antonio.

See everything for fertility is done on a specific "day" of your cycle.  The first day your period starts is Day 1 and then fertility meds start on Day 3, the ultrasound to determine if the fertility drugs are working is on Day 12, the shot to induce ovulation is given on Day 12, then the IUI (and expected ovulation) occurs on Day 14.   I am gone on cycle days 10-15 this month so that is going to make all of the above a bit difficult this month.  Not only for the obvious but because I'll also miss all my doctors appointments. 

So truthfully, I do NOT see October being a fruitful month.

I know people do this for months and months at a time and I admire them...I already feel the frustration when each month nothing has happened.  This November it will be a year of trying for us with the last 2 months being on fertility treatment.

Well, I guess this just allows me to resume my running and heavy lifting and surgery!  If I can't be preggos, at least I'll try to get skinny and be productive!!

Until next time...which I'm not sure when that'll be....

No (definitive) news yet...

No great news as of yet. I was due to test on Friday but since I was feeling nauseous on Tuesday in the middle of the night (omg? Am I nauseous?!?!)  I tested early.  Negative.  Turns out it was just some bad Mexican food from Tuesday night...

However, I have been told not to fret too much since I DID test early.  And no, I haven't tested again.  Haven't wanted to wreck that anticipatory "mayyy-beeee" feeling quite yet.  I guess I'll just wait until Mother Nature makes her visit to know for sure.  If I get beyond last months date I'll test again...until then, I'll save the $15.  :-)
