What an Experience!!


Hello!!! How is everyone? I hope good. I'm doing good. I had a little stay in the hospital the last few days. I have had these attacks ever since I had Little Guy. It's horrible chest pain like someone turning a knife in there with horrible gas and vomiting. I haven't had one in like 2 years. Well Wednesday night I got all comfy after my guys went to bed and started watching my shows from the day. I had a snack of pepperoni and crackers. I woke up at 5 AM with what I thought was heartburn so that lasted about 1 hr. I got up Thursday and felt pretty good I ate some pepperoni on my sandwich for lunch and had hotdogs with cheese and salsa mm yumm for dinner. At around 10 PM I started with again what I thought was heartburn so I got a zantact from my mom and and it just got worse I had that attack from 10 pm till about 2:45 am when I finally vomited. Well I knew then I was having what we thought were gall bladder attacks. I got up Friday and felt pretty good. I didn't really have anything to eat but crackers and a little bit of chips which again was a bad choice on my part. I started feeling bad again. Boater was like this is enough you need to go to the ER . I really didn't want to go but decided to get a shower and go, well while I was in the shower the pain went away so I told Boater I didn't know if I still wanted to go or not. I really don't have anyone to watch Little Guy, but he still thought I should go. I went to the bathroom to do my hair still debating whether or not I should go and had to pee-pee..lol I knew then there was something wrong. My pee was a color I have never ever seen pee be before like a bright orangeie yellow color. So we took Little Guy over Boater moms and off to the ER we went. It wasn't that busy and I was seen in no time. I told them I thought it was a gall bladder attack so they did blood work and a gall bladder ultrasound. The ultrasound showed I had gall stones and my blood work showed my liver enzymes where through the roof so of course they admitted me. I saw a surgen that night sometime. He said that I had passed a gall stone and most likely it got stuck in my bile duct since my liver enzymes were elevated and that I needed a MRI to see if there was one in there or not if there was then they would have to do a procedure call an ERCP (click here if your interested http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/ercp/index.htm ) which this artical says you get a sedative during the procedure but they actually knocked me out thank goodness. I was also a little jaundice. So I had to wait till Sunday for the MRI ( which is another story) and as you probably already figured out I had one stuck in there. I got the ERCP on Monday and of course the stone passed in between the MRI and the ERCP but everything went great so they gave me the option of going home and coming back to get my gall bladder removed or staying and having it removed the next day. Well duh I'm already here I would be stupid to go home (still in pain) just to go through all the red tape again. So I got the darn thing out Tuesday morning and came home Tuesday night. It was done Laparoscopic so hopefully the healing process won't be to bad and it won't interfere in me doing that IUI this coming cycle. I had pretty good care there and was on morphine most of the time. I did have one nurse that I'm going to write a complaint about and the MRI run around which I got the head of administration on.
I am really hurt that none of my friends come to my blog or my myspace anymore =( Especially the last few entrys that have been important to me. I know ppl are probably getting tired of hearing the same stuff over and over again about us TTC but it is very and I mean very important to us.
Boater has been talking to his first son every couple of days . I am really hoping that we can build a relationship with him. =)
Well I hope everyone had a better weekend and start of the week then I. Take Care TTFN!!

Ohhh I have me a little artist on my hands I think..lol The other day Little Guy was drawling on his doddle thing my mom gave him and he said look mommy it's you. I was stunned that he drew what looked like a person for just turning 3 I think he did a great job what do you think? I just had to take a picture since it was on the doodle thingy..lol

Finally!!!!


Hey everyone, how are ya's ? I'm pretty good I guess. I'm getting anxious about this cycle coming up, I just hope I have someone to watch Little Guy when I go in for the folli checks.
Well Boater finally met his first son on Sunday night. Wow how life can change in an instant. We had gotten a call from the phone company (due to me having an unpublished number) from his ex saying it was urgent for him to call her. I was on pins and needles until he came home cuz I just had a bad feeling something was wrong. So Boater finally gets home and calls and she tells him that his son is in the hospital and the doctors think he has lung cancer because there was a spot on his lung in the x-ray. So he was on his way out the door when she called to tell him that the doctors think his son had a seizure in his sleep ( he has epilepsy which they found when he was in kindergarden or first grade) and fluid went into his lungs and that he was gonna be ok. So the cool part was he was still able to go and meet him after 15 yrs =) Boater said he thought it went pretty good and that when he first went in the room he said he asked him if he wanted a hug and he said yes so he did get to hug him to awww =) Boater took pictures of him and Little Guy, just Little Guy and me and Little Guy with him to show I thought but he gave them to him (why give him a pic of me ?)He even started asking questions about Little Guy which made me feel good maybe Little Guy can get to know his big brother. Something I have been wanting for Boater ever since we got together even more so since we had Little Guy. His son was released from the hospital on Tuesday. Boater talked to him twice on Monday but nothing since then. His ex got some kind of surgery yesterday so they are pretty busy. I think Boaters gonna call tomorrow if he don't hear anything.
Not much else going on at the moment. I am surprised how quiet everything is on here like my myspace wow I haven't had a comment in like 17 -18 days and this blog hardley ever sees visitors anymore...lol
I was gonna go and get that blood test done yesterday but looked at the lab slip and I have to fast for 12 hrs so I decided to get it done tomorrow. Ohhh I pray my wbc is ok and that it is still going down. My RE didn't say a word about it but as soon as I saw my nurse that was pretty much her first words to me...lol
Welp thats it today. I hope everyone doing good!! Take care!!!!

My Update =)


Hello everyone, how are ya's? I'm doing pretty good. Well most of you know I went for my follow up appointment today with the RE. It went pretty good. He explained everything to us about the test we had done and he thinks I have a good chance at getting pregnant. He was really excited that I quit smoking he kept saying how awesome it was. I will be doing the IUI (intrauterine insemination) when my next cycle starts, so it will probably be the end of this month or the begining of next month since I always have to take something to bring it on. My nurse said to call her on cd 30 if I haven't started it yet.I am on cd 17 today. So once I start my cycle I have to go in on cd 3 and get blood work and a transvaginal ultrasound, if everything comes back ok I will start the clomid (50mg) that day for 5 day's, then I will go in on cd11 for more bloodwork and another transvaginal ultrasound to check to see if I have any follicals growing and if there is then to see how big they are. I may need to make a few trips in to keep checking since they may not be ready on cd 11, Once it or they reach the size they want then I will give myself a shot in the belly which is called a trigger and that will ensure ovulation with in 36 -40 something hrs so they said once I do the shot I will have the IUI 2 days after . I just hope I get good results on just 50 mg of clomid. Welp I guess that sums it up. I think a BFP (big fat positive) pregnancy test would be nice right around our anniversary =) Oh yeah and he took me off the metformin WOO HOO my behind will be very happy...lol and drinking coffee's not gonna bother me either YAY!!!!

Happy 18th Birthday Amber Lynn!!!! I love you bunches!!!!!!!

Wow it's been a few weeks...


Hello everyone, How are ya's? I'm doing pretty good. wow I didn't realize it has been a few weeks since I updated. I have been busy.
We had a nice Christmas =) Little Guy must have had Santa fooled with all the gifts he got..lol I got a few sweaters and snow boots. I didn't really want much I mean it's for the kids right ( even though we all can be kids inside from time to time) plus I spent way to much on my eye glasses hehe. My mom had to work Christmas so I made dinner, I made the side dishes on christmas eve and cook the turkey and ham on christmas. My sister and her family came over, we had a good time. Boaters family didn't stop over. One of my neices stayed over for a few days then my sister picked her up and took Little Guy for a few day's ( woo hoo a much needed break) I was so bored...lol I couldn't wait for him to come home I missed him soo much. I think Boater missed him as much as I did =)
They brought him back on New Year's Eve and stayed to help bring in the new yr. Boater and my BIL (brother in-law) were drinking red bull with shots of jagermeister in it and also drinking beer, my sister was drinking baileys irish cream in her coffee then she had some parrot bay (sp) captian morgan drinks, I couldn't drink =( not with being on this medicine, but we all had a good time. My BIL got so sick about 1/2 hr before midnight. Oh while Little Guy was away, Boater and I were watching TV I guess it was about 1-2 in the morning and we heard something and saw a car going up the road with it's lights off didn't think nothing of i at the time but noticed around 4 am that someone had thrown a bolder at our snowman snowglobe =( what is wrong with ppl ?? We were able to fix it but we lost a lot of the snow.

I went and had my crown put on last week. I go Monday to get 2 cavities filled and guess what??? I'm finished!!!! woo hoo he did say that I was probably due for another cleaning. So I guess I'm not done..lol

Well I didn't start my cycle on Christmas eve or christmas =) I started getting a little worried because I usually get it with in 3 days after taking the provera but this time I got it late on the 5th night . I was able to get that sonohysterogram done. I got it done today actually and my doctor did the procedure. He thought that I might have had uterine fibroids from what it looked like on this other test I had done, but nothing my uterus looks good so he said for me to make a follow up appointment and we can go over all the testing and most likely start the IUI (Intrauterine insemination) next cycle WOOO HOOOO!!!!!! I'm so gosh darn excited. I go for the follow up next Friday (Jan 12th) You should have seen me I was jumping up and down in the elevator cuz I was so excited LOL. So the only thing that I think that can stand in my way now is my WBC . I go next week to get that tested again, and I have been praying everyday that it is where it's suppose to be.

Little Guy has been doing pretty good. He started having the sniffles and the sneezies (hopefully I don't get it. I don't think that will help with my WBC) He still is himself for the most part. He just loves everything everyone gave him for christmas. I think his favorites are the v-smile, a fisherprice digital camera ( which takes crappy pic's but he don't care..lol) play-doh activity set and lincon logs. I was amazed at how quick he caught on to the v-smile he's such a smart little boy. He is doing great with going potty he has a peepee accident here and there but thats it.

Boater has been on vacation since the 22nd, he goes back to work tomorrow. I'm kinda looking forward to it. I love him to peices but I want my computer back!!! He won't use his and I refuse to. He is still smoking more since he has been on vacation and he smokes in that rm and I do not want to smell it!! I'm surprised how much I think it stinks. I know I know I walked around smelling like that for 22 yrs. I have not smoked it is like day 44 with out one =) Woo Hoo go me. I guess that about it. I hope everyones holidays were great ones and that everyone have a very happy, healthy and very prosperous yr ahead. Take Care!!!
