Lilypie Maternity tickers

I met with my aunt this morning to talk about everything I'm going through lately.  She made me feel like I have something seriously wrong with me.  She was going on and on about how our family has been so lucky and no one's ever been really injured or sick in anyway and that this is the first time in our family someone's had a physical problem that they've been diagnosed with.  Everyone has had kids so easy with little trying and she figured we all just be as fertile as they come and was very surprised.  She started talking to me about getting egg donors and adoption and have we decided what we're going to do?  I told her, yes, there are a lot of options for us, but we haven't even really gotten into the infertility arena because I've never even been on Clomid, so we have lots of time to make further decisions if nothing happens in the next year.  She just seemed very curious about it all.  I think her daughter-in-law is going through some of this behind her back and so she wanted to talk to someone who would tell her whatever she wanted to know.  I'm not private by any means so I answered every question she had and entertained all of her ideas with her.  She doesn't really know how to talk to someone with infertility so I was a good sounding board for her.  I liked talking about it with someone who was actually interested in it.  Everyone else is bored with it at this point, so I don't talk about things a whole lot.

I'm excited to go in for my acupuncture session on Monday afternoon.  I'm not sure if it will work because I was really really almost on my death bed sick, and my temps have been all over the place since then so I'm not sure if I ovulated, or if the high temps are lingering from being sick, or if being sick in general messed up the cycle and is making me ovulate later than usual.  Not that I really ovulate, but my body acts like it does.  So all that to say is that I'm not sure the acupuncture will be that effective because they like you to do it the day before you ovulate and I have lost track of that this cycle.  :)  But I'm so close to getting on the Clomid!!!  All I have to do is hurry up and start a new cycle and they'll do the U/S to check for cysts and than I'll be on it!  I'm crossing my fingers for no cysts...

I was talking to another aunt a few weeks ago who tried for a few years for her first baby and was put on Clomid.  All they gave her was 25 mg for 5 days and she got pregnant the first cycle!  She needed it for her 2nd baby also but it was exactly the same as the first time.  And she got pregnant on her own with her 3rd.  She never thought she'd have one baby, let alone 3 beautiful girls!  So hopefully that'll be me~~~~!   Twins would be fine too, so I don't mind the risk there.  It freaks my husband out a little though.  Especially for our first and just where we are in our lives.  Supporting one baby financially is much easier than two.

Alright, enough from me.  Updates to come.
