FRIDAY TTC POST (late)

Courtney got her bfp last week! Yeah! Congrats to you as you graduate to the baking mamas and wishing you a happy and healthy nine months!

I think I got personals out to everyone that posted last week except for Jessica...so good luck Jessica!! Hey, did I put you on the list already for 9/10? Is that you or someone else? There are a ton of names of people that don't post regularly and when there are a few of one name it is hard to keep track.

How are all of my other girls doing this week?? We have a lot going on right now...looking forward to the updates and some bfp's soon!! Are you all busy with holiday planning??

Any adds or changes to the list, let me know. Shari

That's me! We had started then he had to go to Army training. So we r back to it. Although moving and a sick Bella and I haven't been much fun.
Jessica

I'm back to the 2WW after ovulating a little over a week late. We're very lucky to have a flexible and understanding donor! I made an appointment for 12/29 because she said if I wasn't PG by Jan to come in for testing. I have that week off and figured I'll be a few weeks along or she can run the tests. Maybe the third time is the charm after all...........we'll see in about 2 weeks!!!

Good luck and baby dust!

Actually, I got my BFP last Monday!  Yippee!!!!  Passing on the sticky baby dust!

Hi Ladies,

I'm still waiting for my period so I can get my IVF ball rolling!   Now, I have a time limit.. I found out Friday that my office is closing, and come June I will be losing my job, along with my IVF coverage.. .So I sent a pretty freaked out email to my nurse saying.. we've got to get started...  Sadly, not many companies offer IVF coverage, so this HAS to work by June, or my baby hopes are gone... 

So, I haven't been a mess since Friday...
