Happy 3rd Birthday My Little Guy!!!

Wow I can't believe that three yrs ago today I was having my little miracle =) We had such a great day. Geoffrey the giraffe from Toy's R Us called and wished him a happy birthday this morning. Then we took him to Chuck E Cheese for lunch he is such a flirt..lol He had a blast, he didn't want to leave ...lol after that we took him to Toy's R Us with soem money we took out of hid piggy bank. A friend of ours got him a railroad crossing bank that makes noise when you put the money in so we figured we would cash some in and save some. He got a tractor thats in the movie cars and it makes the same noise as they do when Mater scares it...lol and a mater to go with his lightning mcqueen, 2 nerf or something,like that swords,a car's hidaway (like a little tent) and they gave him a crown that said it's my birthday and a balloon. We came home and my mom had to work tonight so she gave him his gifts before she left. She gave him a glow in the dark Thomas shirt and Over the Hedge dvd. After dinner our friend came over and we opened gifts and had cake. All in all I think he had a good birthday. I am upset cause I didn't get a pic of him blowing out the candle but Boater said we can get one off of the video we took. The candle we used was just a number candle but is was used on all three of our cakes. I think thats cool =) Here are some pic's.

Doing Pretty Good!!

Hello, How is everyone? I'm good Not to much going on you know same s*** different day =) Well we got hypnotized last Monday to stop smoking. It was a lot different then what I expected. On the way home Boater and I got into a stupid argument and I smoked a cigarette =( I have not smoked since. I don't have the cravings like I did when I tried to quit with the patch. Everyday get's easier and easier. Boater has smoked a few cigarettes but hasn't had any in a few days, my mom had a cigarette that night and a few puffs here and there. I am so glad to be on the way to a healthier life.
I still have not heard the results from the HSG which is kind of pissing me off. I did call and make my follow up appointment. I was hoping to get in before December but our appointment is December 11th =( I just hope my cycle don't start before then or it will be another wasted cycle and I am getting sick of those. I am not getting any younger. I am upset with myself. I forget a lot to take my temp when I get up in the morning. How am I gonna know I ovulated if I keep forgetting that.
I went to the surgeon on Wednesday and now I'm just waiting for them to call me to get this cyst removed I have a few little ones behind the other ear so he's going to remove them to. They give you a local and then cut them out. So hopefully soon. I guess I will reschedule my follow up appointment with my PCP if it's not done before then. I am praying that my WBC will be normal next time I go. I have to get a repeat CBC done 2 days before I go back to her.
Little Guy woke up around 2 AM and he had a slight fever and threw up. He seems a little better this morning , he still has a slight fever. I hope it's like a 24-48 hr bug. I don't want him sick on his birthday which is Wednesday. We plan to take him to Chuck E Cheese for lunch and have a little cake after dinner with a few gift's. We are having a small party for him Saturday. I had planned on a Thomas the train theme for the party but some little one changed there mind. He wants a "Cars' theme you know the movie. I just wished I didn't already buy that Thomas shirt.
Ohh I relisted that OV Watch on Ebay and it sold. I can not believe I got $4 more for the monitor. I guess since it's fairly new ppl just don't know just how exspensive they are. I am kinda upset with the person that won it though. I have that it must be paid for with in 7 days from the end of the auction. It ended the 21st so she should pay me by the 28th which is Tuesday. Well I get an email from her telling me she can't pay till Friday. UGH!! why do ppl do stupis stuff like that if you don't have the money don't bid. Oh well.
I hope everyone's haveing a good weekend. I miss my comments well not a lot of ppl come here anymore. Sorry to be so boring. Take Care!!

Hello Friends!!!

How's it going? I hope all is well. I'm doing ok Not to much going on. Same shit different day.
I still haven't gotten my results from the HSG yet =( I emailed the nurse Monday night and didn't hear back from her so I called her Thursday and she was out of the office due back in Friday. So I called her yesterday morning and she didn't have my chart so she said the doctor was probably reviewing the HSG and she will call me as soon as she has the results. UGH!!! I have talked to a few woman who have had this done and they all got there results the same day. My nurse did say I could make my follow up appointment. I tried to make it but was not feeling good yesterday and spent most of the day on the potty =( I don't know if I am coming down with anything or if it's the metformin I'm taking. I hate this medicine you have to watch your sugar and carb intake or you will be running to the potty. I have had a hard time even drinking coffee. I am hoping to get my follow up appointment scheduled Monday morning.
My appointment with the surgeon I had for this past Thursday was cancelled because he had to leave early and there was no way I could go in earlier, so I have an appointment Wednesday with another one. I guess it's a good thing since the one surgeon will be on vacation for 2 weeks after Thanksgiving. I just want them to take this darn cyst out asap so I can get another CBC done to see if that was the reason. I am praying that it is. I'm just nervous that my RE will not do anything till we figure out why my WBC is elevated.
I decided that since I was seeing a RE that I didn't need my fertility monitor or my ov watch anymore so I put them on Ebay. I was surprised that I only sold the monitor.I bought it brand new for $88 used it only 2 months so I had like 14 test strips left and I got $91 for it with the test strips. Boater said I put my starting bid for the ov watch to high. I bought it for $189 with 3 sensors used it for 2 months so I have one sealed sensor left and put my starting bid for $100. I had 6 watchers but no one bidded on it =( So I relisted it starting at $85, so keep your fingers crossed that it will sell and I get at least $100 for it.
Guess what were doing Monday??? We are finally going to go get hypnotized to quit smoking. I know why not just try and quit on our own easier said then done. It's gonna be me, Boater and my mom. We are gonna be there pretty much the whole day since they do it one at a time. I just hope it works. It would be so awesome to come home and not smoke and have an extra $450-$500 a month.
They changed Boaters day's again at his work. I think it's because they are short handed and a little slower in the winter. He was working 6 days every other week and they took away his Sunday's which is premium pay. Now he only works 5 days a week but he got Sunday's back.
Wow Little Guy's birthday is coming up way to fast. I can't believe he's gonna be 3. Why do they have to grow up so quick =( He is doing an awesome job going to the potty. I still put a pull up on him when he sleeps and when we go out. I am thinking we are gonna try venturing out without one when we go out again well not the next time cuz we will be going out Monday all day but like when we go to the store or over Boaters mom's. His talking is getting soo much better he still has problems with like his f's and s's and some other letters but we are working on them. I got his 3 yr check up scheduled for December 14th. I can not wait to see how he's doing. For you mommies that have taken there kids for the 3yr check up, what all do they check?
Welp I guess I've bored ya's enough ohhh BTW Java you have not been a horrible friend to me at all!!! I know your busy and that you have your hands full. I hope everyone's having a good weekend!! Take Care!!

One step closer... I hope.

Hello friends, how are ya's? I hope good. I'm doing ok, still stressing a little but not as bad.
I went Wednesday morning to get the HSG (hysterosalpingogram) test done. It was the only appointment available, I was so nervous cuz it was only cd 8 and I thought I'de still have my cycle, but it stoped after cd 6. Wow I don't think I have ever had one that short except while I was on clomid. I'm getting ready to go and they have you take antibiotics just incase you have an infection . They don't want it passing through your uterus and fallopian tubes . It made me so sick . I am just glad I woke up early and started getting ready . So I go get the test which wasn't that bad except they have you straighten out your legs. Which is kind of hard when you have a speculum in ya....lol I don't know the results yet. So that was the last test in the prescreening. I'll make a follow up visit once my results come back from the HSG and hopefully we can do the IUI next cycle. I am hoping that since I had a fairly normal cycle so far that maybe just maybe I'll ovulate on my own. I can only hope =)
I also had a follow up with my PCP. I got all the paperwork I need to go see a hematologist. We got to talking and she was checking my Lymph nodes in my neck and I told her about this sebaceous cyst I have behind my ear. So she looked and it and tried to pop it with no luck and boy does it hurt today. She thinks that could be a reason my WBC is elevated . She said she has seen it in ppl with acne, so she wants me to go to a surgen to get it removed. I go to one next Thursday. So right now we are putting going to see the hematologist on hold. So now she has me taking antibiotics UGH!! I feel like I have been living on those things ever since I started going to the dentist.
I hope everyones having a good week. Take Care!!!

A Little Scared!!

Hi pep's, How are ya's? I'm ok I guess. I got the results from my repeat CBC and my white blood cell count is still elevated. The first time I had it done it was 15 something , this time it was 14 something. They want it to be somewhere around 4,300 and 10,800 . So now my PCP wants me to see a Hematologists since it is still elevated. I am a little scared. I am affraid something is really wrong with me. I don't feel sick or anything. I wonder if there are just some ppl that have a higher one for no reason. I'm scared that it could be something that will keep me from trying to have another baby let alone not be able to watch my Little Guy grow up into a young man. My mom say's I need to stop worrying but how can I. I tried making an appointment with one but all I got was an answering machine and they haven't called me back. I have Boater all scared to.
Well I went for my CD 3 workup on Friday. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be with my cycle being as heavy as it is. They do bloodwork to check your hormone levels like your estrodiol (sp) then they do a transvaginal ultrasound to check for cyst's. I don't have any cyst's to worry about and my estrodiol levels were a little elevated but the nurse said thats common for woman who have PCOS. So on with the prescreening. All I have left to do is that HSG, the nurse wants me to get it done on cd 12 but thats on a Sunday and the radiology place is not open on Sunday's so I'm going to schedule it for Saturday and am still praying this bleeding will be gone. I just wished I had normal cycles. I mean there are a lot of woman who have normal cycles even though they are anovulatory.
Welp I guess that's it for now. I hope everyone's having a nice weekend. Take Care!!!

Our Trick Or Treating and other Stuff =)

Hello ladies, how are ya's? I'm good just realaxing after all that walking last night..lol Little Guy had a great time. We went to this one neighborhood where Boaters cousin use to live they go all out every year. He got so many compliments on his skeleton costume. He's missing the hands because they were to big so I just left them at home. Boater wore that ugly mask but only for a little while but the kids got a kick out of it. After a little while Little Guy wanted to go up to the house all by himself, he is just getting so independent =( . We took a bag also and would dump the candy in it when the pumpkin got a little heavy. We did that for about 2-2 1/2 hrs then we went to Boaters aunt's so his mom, aunt and grandmother could see Little Guy. Boaters mom took him around to a few houses, after that we went to Boater's ex-bil's to see the kids there Little Guy ate and we hung out for a little bit then we came home. We had a great time. Here are some pic's I had a hard time getting ones due to there being sooo many kids.



The last pic is Boaters mom w/Little Guy. I tell ya the pic of me stinks...lol I never look in a pic like I look if I look in the mirror...lol
When we got home I noticed Aunt Flo came to visit woo hoo. I know you think I'm weird getting excited about starting my cycle. So I called the nurse today and since I got it after 5 PM today is cd1. I go Friday morning for my cd3 bloodwork and vaginal ultrasound I am so nervous I have never had one of them while bleeding (YUCK!!) So I have to take Little Guy over to Boaters moms early that morning. I'm still praying that it will end by cd10 so I can get that HSG done I am tired of waiting I want to get started with this already. I went and had the repeat CBC done today I just hope my white blood count is normal and I got the other test done that the lab missed the last time for my RE. I did ask the nurse if they got back Boaters SA and she said that they did but the doctor hasn't signed off on it yet but she did tell me everything looked good which I kinda figured...lol Welp thats about it here I hope everyone's doing good.

Congratulations Purplemama and family on the arrival of baby Mayson on 10/25/06

Take Care everyone!! TTFN
