That image is cracking me up! Kinda perfect! But anyway...
I am off the devil pills (BCP) and started our antibiotics today! And the big guns start tomorrow! 150 Menopur and 200 Follistim (and baby aspirin).
I can't believe we are finally here! Honestly I can't believe that I didn't lose my mind in the last couple months! *pats self on back* I really tried not to focus on it... But now it's all I think about obviously and I am ready to get this thing started! Odds are within the next 2 weeks I will be PUPO (pregnant unless proven otherwise)!
So I decided that once I started stims I needed to step back on exercise. I am still going to workout, but keep my heart-rate a lot lower so blood flow goes to my uterus and not my extremities. So I ended up harder workouts today by finishing the C25K ! I am super happy as I have been distracting myself doing the program. It was hard knowing I wouldn't be racing after I finished (I used to run- did a marathon, few HM, 12Ks & 10Ks... ironically have never done a 5K) but I have a larger goal in mind <3
I also celebrated with a veggie burger, fries and a ICY COLD drink! LOL! I am not sure I am going to be able to remember not to drink cold things. I have been trying the last couple of weeks but I honestly forget!
To end the day I am getting a massage and taking a lavender epsom salt bath :)

And here is where I jinx myself!
*knocking on wood*
So is it really almost August? No really??? I think this wait could not have come at a better time in the year! The summer always flies by and this one is no exception! I still have some summer bucket list items and I am running out of time!
I thought for sure everyday would be torture... And don't get me wrong, some days I would rather pull my eyelashes out then wait another day (drama queen) but for the most part it has been really fast.
I have done so many projects around the house so that helps some. I just wish DH was off work more :( That limits when I do things with the kids because I want family time. I won tickets to an amusement park but still haven;t found the time to do it :/
We are going on vacation to the beach the 12-16th and I planned that because I am worried that week will surely drag as it's so close to things actually happening!
I chose to do a ticker but it really isn't accurate to when things get 'real'. I am still not entirely sure but hope I will know more Thursday- the day after tomorrow! eek!!
I am thinking my EDD will be the end of May which is fine by me! I was worried it would fall really close to #1s birthday and mid summer (July 1st) but with a planned c/s odds are I will deliver around the second week of May :) Don't get me wrong, I would take a baby no matter when I was due! LOL!
I can;t believe I am talking about actually being pregnant! it's been so long since I even allowed myself to go there. I get this flashes where I think OMG I COULD BE PREGNANT SOON! Seems so surreal! And in some ways I am not sure how to put TTC behind me forever. I can't ever do this again. I say that each time but I mean it this time. I don;t have the time and my kids need me. I am hoping my biological urge will die after this last baby but if not? I won't be TTCMA ever again.
I am hoping that doesn't leave me with tons of frozen embryos to worry about. Still so unsure about it but most likely donate as hard as that seems. DH is fine with it so really it's up to me.
Who knows, I may not have any left so I try not to stress about that part unless I have to!
So back to keeping myself busy... C25K is going well enough. I started week 2 and can't imagine doing it without the app! Thats what stopped me in the past. I am having some hiccups with it not keeping my heart-rate in the right zones for a decent workout. Yesterday I resorted to jogging really s l o w l y to get my heart-rate at least in the 120s during the 'walking' part. I think because cardiovascularly I am still in shape. I just injure myself because I tend to follow that instead of my shins! So far they are a tiny bit sore but fine so I guess I am good. I am going to try and get in day 2 and 3 before surgery Friday and then I guess it's a mandated break for me :( I forgot to ask how long but I would think I would be fine by Monday?
