CD9

Wow, this week has gone by quickly! I can't believe it's Thursday already. I had bloodwork and an ultrasound yesterday, and then I got a message that they wanted me to come back today. Dr. R did my scan this morning, as the they were really busy today. He said I'll probably have my trigger shot today or tomorrow. They'll let me know after they check my bloodwork. I must admit my ovaries are feeling very full. I remember this feeling from doing this years ago. It's like ovulation will be a relief, because then I won't feel so tender.

I was thinking in the car ride to work this morning about that the odds this will work are much greater than when we were trying on our own. The doctor showed me I have 4 follicles on the right and 2 on the left that are off a good size and should ovulate this month. That's 5 more chances than I would have on any other cycle. I'm feeling good that we decided to go back to the doctor.

I do need to try to make a chiropractor appointment for this afternoon, though. My lower back has been killing me for the past few days and no amount of elliptical machine or yoga postures has been working to fix it. Can't wait for the chiro to make it all feel better.

Phoebe's Fifth Grade School Picture

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture.  I really like her in red or bright colors.  She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.

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...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...
