Women of Strength!!!
A Strong Woman VS. A Woman Of Strength
A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.
A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.
A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.
A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.
A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.
A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

Keyan: How are you? Any AF feelings?
dnikki: Sounds like you had a great time last night :) Hooray for drywall being finished!!! I
know that's exciting :) dh has the babies' room ready to patch & prime the walls. We'll probably paint next weekend :) Now, to find a color for a boy & a girl... ;) I know how you feel about looking stuff up. I did it to reassure myself.

It's always amazing to me how everything can be planned w/out the guest of honor knowing :) What a nice surprise for you! :) Yesterday I got up early & cleaned for about 2 hours. I was exhausted! ;) Then I shopped for more maternity clothes & bought my first little boy outfits :) My MIL stopped by in the afternoon, which was nice. She

Ad_06- Congratulations! I am so very happy for you!
AFM, The CVS went well today. It didn't hurt and I did not have to get blood drawn which was a surprise. John Hopkins still has my blood from earlier this year that they can use. There were no red flags seen on the ultrasound so i was happy to hear that. The heart rate was 158. It was an abdominal ultrasound so I couldn't see as well but I could still see a little. So I can call in to get the preliminary chromosome results and gender on Wednesday afternoon if I want to find out. It might be better to get all the results at once but I probably will find out.

Hi ladies well no AF temp dropped this morn took a hpt bfn .So feeling quite confused nothing new there.
Okay, I started typing early this morning and never checked for updates when I got home before I finished typing lol...
Ad: Great number!!!!! Come on cuper sticky bean!!!! YAY!!!!

Keyan: My weekend was pretty good, busy though lol - how was yours? How are you doing?
Mrspace: Yes, the urinating thing is normal - especially when you've had endo on your bladder removed. They mess with that big muscle! Your pain meds will make you constipated, you can always get a stool softener and add fiber one tablets to your diet. Hope you start feeling better soon!!
Ad: I would imagine you would have your 1st u/s at 6wks unless (Heaven Forbid) something came up. I can't believe the nurse blabbed!!! I hope your step-son understands as to why you both didn't tell him sooner... Update us when you get your new number!!!! Come on BIG NUMBERS!!!!
Mommyin10: So how much shopping have you and DH done lol?! Are you feeling those little ones move more and more?
Luvkayln: Little Addy's birthday is getting so close!!! How are you feeling? Have you started maternity leave yet?
AFM: I know I've been MIA (sorry!!!), but this past week was soooo busy! I painted on Wed, had a class to go to for work on Thurs, Fri and Sat I worked and yesterday we had Thanksgiving at my Mom's 2hrs away,,,,I'm pooped and I have to work tonight! I know this is short, but I'm trying to get the darker color put on this new room before 11 so I can take a nap before work. I'll check in around lunch!!!
Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

keyan- I have 4 incisions and yes I have a few little stitches in them. Nothing serious.
I did talk to my dr today about the BM and urination thing. He gave me some pointers so it'll get better. My post op will be in the next few days. I have to call tomorrow to schedule it.
As far as Lupron goes..I don't really know anything. I'll know more after my appt I suppose. I still feel pretty loopy from the meds. But it's going ok I suppose.

mrspace - all that you are experiencing is normal like all the other ladies said. I hope you have a speedy recovery.
Thanks ladies for all the luck tomorrow. I took a shot and tried to get the lab to give me the results, but they wouldn't. Oh well tomorrow is just right around the corner.
Oh and get this, I wasn't going to tell my step son the news yet, with my history. I had to take him with me this morning, because DH had to work.....well the nurse comes out to take my blood and she says " awww, you're pregnant, that must be exciting" I just looked at her and kinda did the shhhh thing and she turned around to my step son and said "so you are going to be a big brother"!!! I didn't know what to say!?! When we were leaving he looked at me and said "you didn't tell me!!!" I tried explaining why, but he's 9 it's hard. I called DH and said we have a problem, the nurse was a blabber mouth....lol DH said oh well it's fine. So I just told my step son that the test showed I am, but there is alot more stuff that has to be done to really be sure. I just don't want to hurt him if something happens.
If my beta comes back good, when will I have my 1st u/s? Well ladies I will let you know what I find out tomorrow.

yes girl all of that is normal. take it easy and probably by tomorrow you will start feeling a lot better.
If you had an enema before the surgery it will take a little while to have things moving. and about not being able to urinate, well for me it got better 2 days after. and the bleeding, can get worse, when I had my first lap I also had a D&C and I bleed for about 11 days straight and the stopped for about two days, but then it started again for about 7 more days and it was really heavy....so be prepared...my doc said it was normal. will you also be doing Lupron, did the doc mention anything? when is your post-op? you will find out a lot more. ......
BTW you got stiches? ....I only got one incision with just one little stich but that was the second lap.
Mommyin10: that sounds like it will look great! I can't wait to see the room's pic.....BTW post new belly pics, ok?!
Luvkayln: hope this last days at work arn't too bad.....can't wait to see a new belly pic from you!!
Ad_06: Good luck tomorrow with the test result!!

Question for those who've had a LAP before.
Sorry...this is going to be graphic....
So I had my surgery on Friday, and I have a few questions. First...it really hurts to urinate. Not a burning or anything, but all the muscles hurt so so so so so bad.
Also, I haven't been able to have a BM at all. I feel like I need to, but I can't seem to do it. I know it's gross, but oh well.
Also, so far I've been spotting lightly ever since the surgery, but I woke up this morning bleeding much more heavily.
Has anyone else had any of these problems? I'm planning on calling the doctor tomorrow, but I wanted your opinion too.
Thanks everyone.

Keyan: dh & I bought paint yesterday! We actually bought 4 different shades of limes, greens & yellows ;) dh will do thick stripes on one wall & solid colors on the others. I know it's hard to envision, but I think it'll look really nice :)
kmcarino: There were red flags at our anatomy scan, each baby had choroid plexus cysts & our lil boy also had an echogenic cardiac "something", so don't worry too much if they see any markers, so long as there aren't supportive findings. Good luck tomorrow!
Ad_06: Thinking of you today & praying for great beta results tomorrow! :)

hey everyone. this will be quick and to the point because i'm feeling pretty bad.
had my surgery yesterday. it took 2 hours. did a lap. 4 incisions. no cancer at all. woo hoo.
also did a hysteroscopy with hsg and a d&c. He DID fine a HUGE amount of endo. but was able to remove (what he could tell) was all of it. Which is huge good news. he said it had even spread to my other organs. Just my bladder as far as I can remember. I will find out more at my post op.
mom said that when dr came out to talk to them he was grinning ear to ear and so excited for us to ttc again because now we know SO much more. still going to take time off to just relax and keep getting healthier.
mom dad and dh have been so amazing to me. Had to spend a lot of time in recovery which sucked but did come home same night
was really pissed at nurse in first recovery room. family couldn't be there with me in that room. nurse was too busy talking to another nurse and i was alone when i woke. I don't handle anethesia well and I freak out and get super super scared when I wake up. She kept coming over to check on me barely and leaving. It was bad.
when they finally took me to the other room and let my family come in I wouldn't let go of my mom. Dh was already gone for work. but it was ok
last nurse I had was mean too. She was rough taking my iv out. But it was ok.
other than that the whole experience was amazing. i am in some serious pain today but doing the best i can. sitting/standing/moving legs hurt bad. dr said that they did A LOT of exploring in there. so all the way up my stomach hurts bc he checked liver kidneys bladder etc. going to talk to dr on monday to get appt and tell him about some issues. having trouble urinating. I have to pee all the time but my bladder won't push it out like normal. TIME ALERT .. also haven't been able to have a bm since the surgery. So i'm nervous about that too. but it should be ok
throat hurts a little from having the tube in there. But it's ok. Air from the lap traveled to my neck/shoulders which they said can be normal, just makes me stiff.
incisions are doing ok. The one in my belly button hurts like h e l l. the other 3 are super bruised but doing fine. just a few stitches.
I miss you all. write more later.

The chromosome testing does nto tell me anything at all about my disorder. It just tests for the correct number of chromosomes...the same as your test did. I hope though that this time the doctor does not find any red flags when he does the ultrasound like he found with my last pregnancy. Then I will feel better. I really do believe that this baby is healthy:) It will be a long two weeks to wait though.
Michelleinhawaii is CANCER FREE!!! Congrats & best wishes =)

Thanks everyone! I am so thankful that this worked. I have to go get more progesterone on Monday. I am still amazed and it really hasn't sank in, maybe after I get my 2nd beta done it will. DH has been awesome, not letting me do things.
Symptoms are starting to come more and more. My bbs are hurting even more, and the fatigue is getting worse. I tried watching a movie with DH and my stepson last night and I fell asleep. That's good though I need my rest. I wish I could tell my stepson, but I want to wait to atleast the 1st trimester is over with.
Last night was kind of scary for me, but I think it's more worrying then anything. I know that I shouldn't be worrying, but it's hard when you've had 2 BFP that ended early. I had some minor cramps toward my left ovary, and my lower back and legs were so achy. The achy part might have just been that I was tired....and I know some cramping is normal. It's just scary sometimes.
Well ladies you have a nice weekend and I'll update as soon as I hear something on Monday.
