I wont watch if McHottie goes...he and Mer carry the show - although I really like Yang.

Our Journey to Parenthood
TTC Since September 2007 - Diagnosis "Unexplained Infertility"
Me 28 - DH 30

Sept 2007-2008 - Trying au natural - When it was fun ;)
Sept 2008 Refered to 1st clinic, what a waste of time
Dec 2008 - Told by old clinic both my tubes were blocked, going for a lap...
Feb 2009 - Lap. done, both tubes clear and open, were never blocked
March 2009 - Clinic gave us the wrong patients results - switched clinics
April 2009 - Started at ISIS
May 2009 - 1st B2B IUI - DH counts amazing, 72 and 42 million 90% mobility - BFN!!! devastated beyond words
June 2009 - IUI #2 - 3 Good follicles - June 16th (113 million sperm, 99% motility WOOHOO) and 17th!! Beta Day July 1st - 14DPIUI...AF arrived...wondering how much more we can take :(
July 2009 - IUI #3 - Changed to timed BD...CD10 (July 10th) Only one good follicle, 2.2 I think, chose timed BD instead of IUI#3, due to only one follicle - we are going to try "au natural " this cycle - BFN again...
August 2009 - Taking time off and enjoying each other, 1st adoption meeting Sept 16th, and I also have a free round of Gonal-F waiting for us at the clinic when we decide to go back - Became a Moderator here at IVF.CA!! Thrilled to be about to give back to a wonderful site and great group
September 2009 - Explored the adoption process with Halton CAS Sept. 16 then decided to take time off from TTC and save for more fertility treatments in the future...
October 2009 - Decided to submit our application for adoption (Oct 27th) and started acupuncture, will not give up we will have a family one day
November 2009 - Finally met Karolyn, she stayed with DH and I for 3 days, she is like a sister to me, and had a few wonderful meet up's with other amazing women from the site...words can not describe what an amazing weekend that was
December 2009 - Re-doing a bunch of tests - hopefully a few IUI's in the new year with a different protocol - Maybe PRIDE training in March
January 2010 - Results from SONO and HSG, all looks great, Right tube questionable, not a huge concern as per Dr. Saving for IVF as that is our next option...might be a few years, hopefully not. Hopefully our miracle will come before -Wondering why is this so hard??
Jan 2010 Cont'd - Accepted to PRIDE training starting in March, SAFE home study to follow...We can finally dream again...
March 2010 - Started PRIDE March 22nd - 9 classes, 3 hrs every Monday night - Enjoying the class, looking forward to the future, getting all our documents ready for our SAFE homestudy package
May 1st 2010 - BFP on a HPT!!! Holy crap how did that happen...May 2nd Beta 182...May 4th Beta 300...1st U/S May 14th - 1st U/S shows healthy miracle bean - H/B and all - 127 beats per minute, what a wonderful moment between DH and I

PP is my favourite show. I love the storylines and the dynamics between the characters. I just wish it wasn't on so late. Or maybe I just need to get with the times and invest in a PVR!

DDB~ LOL I am too cheap to buy one! I had heard people talking about it but had never given it a chance. I watched part of an episode a long time ago (I think it was one of the first ones) but never came back to it until visiting my SIL in NB. She was taping it for a friend so I watched it with her and really liked it, now I think I am hooked!

Do what I did - I called my cable company and told them their competitor was going to give me a PVR for free for a year and so they matched it LOL

I am with Cogeco here - I said Bell offered me a free PVR for a year...BAM DONE got it within two days

Best "gift" I ever got

PS - Don't tell DH but the reason I did that was because PP went to 10 PM and I did not want to miss it LMAO!!!!

All I can say is - WOW, that was a great season finale! The two hours flew by and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. When the shooter grabbed Bailey from under the bed I even screamed a little, even though I had seen the previews all week! It was so sad when Sloan was watching Lexie with Carev. I felt so bad for him. There were just so many shocking moments. Unbelievable!

DH went to my BIL's to watch the game so I was home by myself! I really wanted someone to grab hold of!! I loved it when Bailey asked where all the water was coming from and it was her tears. Love her.

I hadn't seen any previews and was totally shocked! I watched the whole thing by myself except the last 5 minutes and then DH got home so we switched stations and I watched the final hour again with him.

I love Grey's Anatomy! Betcha Katherine Heigl wishes she never left.

I couldn't sleep afterwards. It was midnight but my heart was still racing...heehee
