Hi, Kim....sorry about your losses.

WDW is always good for getting you back on track - at least it's a nice diversion.
Laurel, are you going to test? Test....we want to know.

My gastro said he's going to slip me some extra Demerol because I had pain last time and I'm getting some extra Versed because I remember the entire thing. He said I shouldn't remember it. I remember them rounding that last corner and that terrible pain. He's good about giving the drugs. During my upper endoscopy, I kept trying to pull it out and he told the nurse to knock me out.....and they did.
connorsmom, they need to make a reusable HPT. They could easily make the digital ones able to be used over and over and all we'd have to buy are the test sticks. I don't see why they can't make the CBE Fertility Monitor an HPT (the box of 30 sticks is only $30.). I know why....$$$$$.
Kristy, what did the doctor say???
Nicole, bedside manner is so important in this field. One GYN resident was assisting my RE at one of my retrievals and she was a twit. Anyone that says, "You do realize your only other option is adoption, right?" shouldn't be an RE.
Minnesota! Congrats!!

(they need to make a blue bouncy thing)
Acupuncture was OK. I go back tomorrow. I can't say I left feeling all "enlightened", but it wasn't terrible. He put one in my foot that hurt, but he moved it. The acupuncturist gave me a referreal to an infertility counselor and I called her Monday and saw her yesterday! She's awesome - and in Durham, NH so I don't have to drive though the Big Dig or into MA, which only causes me more stress. It's nice to see someone who specializes in infertility and pregnancy loss. We talked about how I prefer the emotion of anger over sadness/depression and how that's very common in infertility patients because anger has ENERGY behind it and sadness/depression doesn't have that energy and makes us feel more helpless. We talked about my road rage and how I feel slighted when I'm cut off - because I follow the rules of the road and "deserve" to "get home first" and along comes some idiot, not obeying the rules and acting irresponsible, and they just cut me off and "get home first". She really understood me....and it's nice to know there is something behind all of this and I'm not just some road-raging nutjob.

It's good to get this relationship established in case this round is a failure and I have my final breakdown.
