Happy Spring!
Well, I was thinking I would have more to post after going to the doctor today, but I have to say that it wasn't exciting. I went in, and she basically repeated that my tests came back fine, asked about DH, and said that she'd see me in October if I still wasn't pg, and we'd look into an HSG, etc. at that point. That's all fine, I really didn't think there was much more to do at this point. I know it is still too eary for more invasive testing. We talked about my weird cycles, and she said that as long as I'm O'ing, a longer cycle is okay. I don't know how I feel about that, but seeing as we have the hubby to work on for now, I am pretty neutral.
I think that I may break down and buy a monitor, depending on what we find out at the urologist next week. If Chris doesn't have to have any procedures done where we can't TTC for a while, I will probably get one. Otherwise, I may wait a few months.
I did O a bit early this cycle, which was a pleasant surprise. Even more pleasant was that we timed things well. Since there is still a chance that I can get pg, even with the slow movers (smaller chance, I know, but it only takes one), I am not totally giving up the thought that getting pg is a possibility. However, it has taken the nervous edge off the 2WW. Rather than having my hopes set high, I know that it's likely that it didn't happen, and that way I'll be excited if it does, but not heartbroken if it doesn't. It has made for a pretty easy wait so far.
Other than that, I am very busy with school and planning a bridal shower for this weekend. Oh, and I am back in swing with my weight loss/exercise goals. I have been slacking WAY too much lately! There is a 5K race for breast cancer research in late April (Race for the Cure), and Chris and I are planning to run it. I am NOT a runner, despite running track in high school. But a 5K race isn't too big a deal, so if I start running now I should be able to get myself in gear by then. I just need to stay motivated!
Good luck to all of my TTC buds in the 2WW right now, and everyone else, too!
Positive thoughts always,
Laura
