ABC...

Hello blog-world! Sorry I've been absent...I even missed a Flashback Friday :(  To make it up to my handful of followers, I thought I'd fill you in on my own ABCs of Infertility... (Since I've been putting off writing up an "About Me" section)

I found this on one of the blogs I read...but unfortunately, I can't remember which one, so I can't give credit!!!

A. Age when you started TTC:  29…Had I had known then what I know now, I would have started at 25!!! 

B.  Baby Dancing or Sex:  Sex…DH likes to call it bumping uglies.  Guess it depends on the mood!  

C.  Children wanted:  1 healthy bouncing baby would mean the world and then some.  

D.  Dogs/Cats:  1 Jack Russell with the personality/energy of about 7 dogs rolled into one. She's the best!

E.  Essential Oils/Vitamins/Snake Oils:  Snake oils? Haven't gone there yet. Just pre-natals.

F.  Fertility Meds I have taken: None yet.

G.  Gain:  Weight…fluctuates slightly if at all. 

H.  HSG (Hystosalpingogram):  I have the paperwork to get it done, haven't yet decided to pull the trigger,  waiting for more insight into DHs urologist appt.  

I. Infertile Pet Peeves:  Fertile myrtles getting pregnant when its "not a good time".  Figure out how NOT to get pregnant- I did it for years, you can too.

J.  Job title: Store Designer (Furniture, Housewares Retailer)

K.  Kid's names you're afraid will be taken by the time you use them:  Hush. If I type it someone I undoubtedly know will steal it. So mums the word. 

L:  Length of time trying to conceive:  eh…a year ish? (totally scientific) 

M.  Miscarriages:  No.  What a nightmare.

N.  Number of times you switched OB/GYNs, REs, FSs:  so far just once…my original Gyn, switched and is no under different coverage.

O. Ovarian quality:  Good? Good as far as bloodwork is concerned. Thats pretty much all I know so far. 

P.  POAS or waiting for AF:  The longer it takes the more I don't want to POAS.

Q.  Quote from an obnoxious fertile:  Have you tried an Ovulation Predictor Kit? … or…. "Take it from someone whose *actually* been there…"  (it gets me heated just thinking about it).  This might require an answer in another new post.

S.  Sperm:  Waiting on a possible 3rd SA.  Low in all 3 categories. 

T.  Time you tried naturally:  year- ish..

U.  Uterus quality: OK? Will know more after I get my @$$ in gear and get the HSG…so far all i know is that I'm retro-verted.  Of course, because why the hell not be. 

V.  Vagina: check.

W.  What baby stuff do you already have:  the baby stuff that got dumped on us a year ago recently sold at a garage sale, they jinxed us!

X:  X-tra, XX-tra, read all about it, how many people know about your crazy TTC journey:  A few close friends, and very little family…and the world wide web.

Y.  Yearly exam:  Of course, every year, like clock work.

Z.  Zits:  zits? who me? well yea, occasionally. 

And there you have it.  I pinky promise I won't wait so long in between posts next time!
