on the baby front

As of last week, Bobby and I were officially cleared by RE#3 to try again. He wrote a prescription for progesterone suppositories starting 3 days post-ovulation, and instructed me to call the minute I get a positive pregnancy test so that the obsessive ultrasounds can begin.
He said that he’ll be as aggressive as we want [...]

new little job

Now about my new little job. I’ve now been herding kiddos for 1.5 wks. I’ve been peed on once, retrieved a poop ball off the floor, wiped countless noses, and learned the importance of time-out and naptime.

Folks, we have a winner!

Appt with RE #3 was today, and Bobby and I agree that this is guy we’re sticking with. Things I like: he has a private practice, his office staff is super-nice and helpful, and he has pictures of baby successes EVERYwhere. During the consultation, I mentioned that it was Day 3 of this cycle… didn’t [...]

new day, new plan

After a good night’s sleep & lots of pondering, I made an appt with a 3rd RE today. I’m not officially breaking up with Doctor-Man, but I feel compelled to check this other guy out.  His name seems to be popping up all over the place, and as a believer in signs, I don’t feel [...]

Visit with the Doctor-Man

But please know that [...]
