Anything Can Happen

So I've been pondering yesterday's test along with the news that my favorite Gwen Stefani is pregnant with her second child. This one I'm a bit jealous of and a bit hopeful. I think she is totally awesome, and from yesterday's test I feel anything could happen. I really have no idea why I don't seem to get pregnant on my own. But there is a part of me that thinks if I work hard to be as healthy as possible that it will happen. Of course, the hopeful part of me hopes it happens this month so I won't need to schedule the laproscopy.

I've also been working out every night and eating healthy in order to look good in my swimsuit in Disney - if it's warm enough when we're there for me to wear it. I've lost absolutely no weight whatsoever, but I think my pants are fitting better. I didn't realize until last weekend how big my backside got over the past few months that I've been neglecting my elliptical machine. Last weekend I went out shopping for a pair of jeans. I swear to me trying on jeans is as bad for some people as buying a bathing suit. Mostly because I've got a bit of a booty, but my waist is very narrow. So if I try on jeans that fit my hips, there's a huge gap at my waist. If I try anything smaller, it's impossible to get on over my derriere. I know I should just go to the Victoria's Secret website and order the jeans I like, but I've been interested in some instant gratification as well as hoping I could fit into a pair of 7 for All Mankind jeans. Maybe in a few weeks - hey do they make maternity jeans???

Hi Heather, I've just been catching up on your posts- they're great! I laughed when I read about how you cut & paste no. 4 on your keyboard because it doesn't work - that's hilarious! Thanks for checking my blog out too.

Hi Heather,

I'm glad to hear that your tubes are clear. I had an HSG a few years ago and I remember it being not very pleasant. I hear you about finding the right jeans - it's tough - Good luck!

That's great news about the HSG. I'm glad that you are ruling things out one by one. I pray for you everyday Heather.

Many hugs.

You are right that anything can happen. Hopefully you won't need the laproscopy.

Have a great time at Disney. I am officially jealous. :-)

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...

IVF#2 - It Worked!!!!

OK all my Internet bloggy friends!!!! I'm pregnant with the best initial beta I've ever had!!! Could that mean multiples? We'll find out over the next week or two for sure. My initial beta was 660! I can't believe it! I'm so excited I want to cry. I was so nervous. I didn't want to test before I went there because of all the hcg boosts I had. And I was really starting to doubt if it would really work out or if I was going to have a major disappointment today. I go back on Thursday for a repeat beta and we'll see if we're doubling or better. Leo made a prediction last night of twins. I wonder if he's right. Of course we just want at least one healthy baby, but healthy boy/girl twins would be like winning the lottery. Of course we'll want to win the lottery to support them, but I'm like Scarlett O'Hara in that perspective - "I'll think about that tomorrow!"
