I'm in my 2WW, currently 2DPO, due around the 14th-16th. KMFX that this is our month! If not I will likely be calling the OB I want to see and start some basic testing, but I won't be doing anything more invasive than IUI, I've decided - if I even go that far. Being needle phobic I can't explain the horror of self-injecting for weeks to do IVF, plus we really don't have that kind of money. Hopefully I'll never have to find out since we want to stop at 1 anyway.
Here's some baby dust to all of us!!

I DID Make It - 135.4 8-1-10! Now working on post baby weight loss. (All WL post-op - preop got up to 220 from quitting smoking & last supper syndrome.) 5'2"
CD 26 and for the last 3 days feeling pain in my side and tons of EWCM. It's almost time for AF but this is more like ovulation so I took an OPK test this morning and got a positive. ????????? My body is soooooooooooo wacky lately. I have very little hope left in my heart that this will ever work and that I will have a second child. I will be 43 in in couple weeks. My time is short.

Today is CD 23, had a TON of EWCM on CD 19. We haven't really been trying the last few weeks. I have decided that when it happens it happens. Too much stress otherwise, and I start a new job in a week.
329 (pre-op) 167 (4-22-10) 150 (lowest and goal Summer 07)
