A little of this and that

This is going to be sort of a mixed bag post. I usually only try to ramble about one topic at a time, but thought what the heck, might as well talk about a few this time. Hope you don't mind.

1. I got a + OPK after getting home from work on Friday. I then called the Dr. waited for him to call me back with instructions of what to do. My Dr. called me back at 6:15 and told us that even though I got the + opk he didn't want us to BD that night but instead on Sat morning and that he would meet us in the morning at 9:00 to do the postcoital test. Let me just say sex under pressure is no fun. We both had "issues" but we able to get the job done. (I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again, who would have thought TTC would be this hard?) Anywho, we met the Dr. in his office at 9:00 only 45 minutes after doing the deed. He did the exam and gave me the results right there. Everything was fantastic. Our "fluids" mixed well together meaning I don't have a hostile environment for Mr. Coins's little men. Phew!! Also the shape of his men were awesome, they had great motility and were very high in number. The Dr. even let me look at the samples under the microscope. I could see all the little sperm swimming around. There were tons of them and they were movin fast! So this test came out with perfect results as well as my HSG. Again PHEW!!!

The game plan is to keep OPKing and having well timed BDing sessions. My dr. really just thinks after reviewing my charts that we are just having a timing issue. He would like us to try for 3-4 months and then at that time he will refer me to an RE. After meeting with him, I'm much more at ease with this and I (for now) feel confident with this plan of action.( if more BFN's follow, I'm sure my thoughts will change) Besides with Mr. Coin's job it will be very hard to have other tests done until November when college football season is over. Now I just have to wait and see what the next few weeks hold. I'm 3 DPO now, so the wait is on.

2. We had a great weekend(after the 9:00) Dr. apt. After getting the good test results we went to the mall, Target, and to the grocery store. We didn't do anything exciting mind you, but it was great to just hang out together and relax for a change. We really enjoyed our time together.

3. I'm addicted. I've never been addicted to anything in my life before, but I now have a new addiction. What you ask...? watching the TV show the West Wing. Mr. Coin decided to order season 1 a little over a month ago. I didn't really want to watch it and thought it was a waste of money. Oh my gosh was I wrong. I love this show. We started watching season 1 right before July 4th. I can't stop watching it. As soon as I have dinner done, we watch 1-3 episodes a night. It is a great show, and I'm actually learning a lot about Politics and what goes on in the White House. We are ending season 4 and I'm a little sad that we only have 3 seasons left to go. Guess I will have to find a new addiction after it's over. (I know I really need to get a life)

4. Our new healthy life style has been going great. There was a bump in the middle of the week, but we recovered nicely and are now back on track. Lets see what week number two has in store for our eating/lifestyle make over.

Ok, I think that about sums up what has been going over the last few days. I told you we lead boring lives.

Off to watch another episode of the West Wing and then off to bed.

Talk more soon.
