Weekly Update

How am I feeling? Tired! Morning sickness continues... but I w

How do I look? A little bump is starting to form

Milestone of the week: Hearing the heartbeat for the first time (171 bpm) and getting to see the baby move during the ultrasound!

What is the little bambino up to? Baby's now the size of a raspberry! Your baby is growing like mad, putting on about a millimeter every day and continuing to straighten out in the trunk. Though you cant feel it yet, baby is moving those little arms, legs and (now only slightly) webbed fingers and toes like crazy.

What am I craving? Salty foods

Aversions? Anything sweet

What am I looking forward to? Feeling the baby move for the first time!

Blueberry St.Vincent

Weekly Update

How am I feeling? Tired and a strong sense of "ICK". Nauseous still every morning! The nighttime waking to go pee is super annoying!

How do I look? Same.... just a little bloated

What is the little bambino up to? Baby's now the size of a blueberry! Baby's brain -- both hemispheres! -- is growing fast, generating about 100 new cells every minute. Arms and legs are emerging as joints start to form, and a permanent set of kidneys (baby's third!) is now in place.

What am I craving? Salty foods

Aversions? Anything sweet... well, except sweet tea :)

What am I looking forward to? Starting to show more and more and for this nausea to go away!

Sweet Pea St.Vincent

Weekly Update

How am I feeling? Tired! Not really nauseous, but a very queasy tummy. Oh the bloat!! None of my pants button and if it wasn't for the belly band, I would be a miserable momma. Hair & nails growing, growing, growing!!

How do I look? Same.... just a little bloated

Milestone of the week: seeing the flutter of the baby's heartbeat! Amazing!

What is the little bambino up to? Baby's now the size of a sweet pea! Growing like crazy, baby is starting to sprout eyes, ears, nose, cheeks, and chin. Those little hands and feet -- still webbed like paddles -- might wiggle by week's end, the heart is beating (almost twice as fast as yours!), and blood is starting to circulate.

What am I craving? Not too much - an oyster po-boy is what I wanted today. My mind will most likely change tomorrow.

Aversions? Peanut Butter and anything sweet.

What am I looking forward to? Starting to show more and more...

Weight gain: +4 lbs.

Bummer! I didn't ovulate this month!! Don't know why I did last month but didn't this month?! So, on to trying again! Dr. T decided to put me on 50mg again. I figured she would bump it up since I didn't ovulate, but she didn't. Once again, don't know why! And I have a UTI! Real fun week I am having lol!!!

BFN

Started my cycle Sunday afternoon... BUMMER! On a good note though, at least the Clomid worked and I did ovulate! On to Clomid Cycle #2! I will start the Clomid Thursday!

I ovulated!

The nurse called me yesterday afternoon to let me know my progesterone level was 19.5! That is the highest it has ever been! So all we know, at this time, is that I ovulated! I have to wait 2 weeks and take a pregnancy test. This will be the longest 2 weeks ever! I wanted to take one last night lol! I am just so excited that the clomid worked! We are getting somewhere now!

Happy Nurses Day!

Clomid Cycle Numéro 1

I went to the OB/GYN yesterday and it was quite a pleasant experience. I have the best doc in the world! She looked over all the labs, etc. from the RE in Tulsa and she could not figure out why he never drew a 21-day Progesterone or and LH/FSH. Je ne sais pas! I just assumed he knew what he was doing lol! Anyway, Dr.T decided to go ahead and proceed... She prescribed me 200mg Prometrimum to induce menses and 50mg Clomid to induce ovulation.

I started my 10 day dose last night of Prometrium. After AF arrives, I am bound to a strict day-by-day situation. I will take 50mg Clomid on days 5-9. (I am debating on whether to start taking BBT. I have done that before and it gets quite frustrating.) Anyway, days 12,14,16 are hopefully conception days (hehe!) and then I will have bloodwork on day 21 to check my Progesterone level. If it is low, then we will bump up the dosage of clomid to 100mg next month. If it is high, then we will wait a week and take a pregnancy test!

Everyone keep their fingers crossed and continue praying!! Thanks guys!
