Sneaky sex

So I am now officially planning how to have sneaky sex at my cousin's house while we are there for my BIL's wedding. I will most likely ovulate while we are there and I am not throwing a month away. So, let's get it on....on the sly...should be interesting!!

Silver Lining

So I had a major temp drop this morning. I assume AF will arrive by the end of today, tomorrow morning at the latest. I am attempting to stay positive and find the silver lining in it. We leave in 2 weeks for Marc's Manhatten wedding. We are staying with a cousin on mine. So I will now be able to drink and party for the whole weekend instead of being the designated driver. I'm sure Marc's liquor will be top of the line...so I might as well indulge!!

All is as it should be...

and I am terrified!! I had a lovely little dip at 7DPO and then a temp spike. And a spike that brought me higher than before the dip. I want to be hopeful but am so scared to be. I want to put my hand on my belly and imagine...but I am so afraid. Mostly of that morning I wake up and the temp is down. AF down. And then I just wait for the inevitable outcome. But then I think...what if...this time is different?

Oh yeah...

we have thermal shift...we have cross hairs...we have ovulation!!

woot woot

One more temp like this morning and I get cross hairs. Meaning I ovulated!! I can not tell you how excited I am about that simple fact. Something I took for granted when I started this journey. I've got my fingers crossed of course...but this alone is a huge success :)

So afraid...

to get my hopes up. But so far...it looks like I just might O this month. I should know in the next couple of days if I am correct :) Fingers crossed...check. Prayers said...check. Sex...check. Come on bod...do it for me!! I have faith in you...

Moving on...

So my thryoid level was back in the "normal" range. My sugar level was higher and they are getting very concerned about diabetes. So they are sending me a diet that they recommend I follow. I swear everything fun is taken away from me. Add carbs to the list. It's too long to list. But I started temping again this morning. Anxious to see if my cycle is back on track. I leave next Friday for Maryland to see my girlies. I am so excited. But it means we have to get in as much loving as we can before I go and then pick up as soon as I return. Fingers crossed it doesn't affect our timing. Let the games begin :)

Follow up bloodwork...

So it's been 6 weeks since I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and started my meds. Today I went for my follow up blood work. I actually am crossing my fingers that they say the meds aren't enough and are upping them. I still feel the side effects. Lucky me...basically the early "signs" of pregnancy without the pregnancy fun :) So I hope if they up them then I will finally start to feel better. Fingers crossed...prayers to God...whatever I need to do. I just want to feel good again. I want to put on jeans without the bloat. But first I had to go in and have three ladies poke me and prod me and poke me some more so my rolling vein would give up the blood they so desperately needed. I already have a bruise. I'm dying waiting on the results. Here's the perfect anwer in my mind. The doctor calls me today and says that they are upping my meds and they are already called into the pharamacy. This way tomorrow I can start the higher dose and ::prayers said:: start feeling like a non-exhausted, non-bloated, not nauseous, non-cranky human again. Jimmy said he wants his sweet wife back. I know she's in there...I just don't think we've seen her in awhile. Come out...come out...where ever you are!!
