3 days past IUI

Today is day 2 of the pineapple smoothies! I know its way to early to know anything, but I am getting really nervous. I really want this to work, because I am so ready to move on with my life and stop dealing with trying to get pregnant. I am ready to be pregnant and plan to be a mom. There are stages in life, dating, engagement, planning a wedding, getting married. It all moves forward, but I have been stuck on the trying to get pregnant square for long enough. I feel like I am playing a board game and my turn keeps getting skipped. STOP SKIPPING ME!! I want to roll the dice and move on.

I feel great, the cramps have finally gone away, and I do not have to take Tylenol anymore, so I am happy for that. I am still a little bloated, but nothing I cannot handle.

I am so excited tonight is the season finale of Army Wives and Desperate Housewives is on! Tomorrow is the season finale of Dr. 90210, yes this all makes me happy!

Rough morning!

I woke up this morning about 5:30 AM in the worst pain ever! I had the worst stomach cramps ever. I really thought I was dying! I woke John up and asked him to get me some Tylenol, which helped temporarily, but then about 20 minutes later the cramps started again. It literally felt like I was being sawed in half.

I went through 2 more episodes of cramping until the finally stopped and I was able to go back to sleep. I was so close to having John take me to the ER.

I started my pineapple smoothies today, they are pretty good, I bought the mix at the grocery store and you blend with fresh pineapple, water, and ice. They say Pineapple from day 2-7 after ovulation, it aids with implantation.

1 day past IUI

Well, here I am one day past my IUI and I feeling much better. I still have cramping on and off and I spent a great evening on my couch with my wonderful hubby watching movies and eating too much candy!

We handed out candy and I cannot wait until we can share that with our own children, soon!
Tomorrow I have to start eating my pineapple to help with implantation. I have to go buy some, I already bought the stuff to make pineapple smoothies. But I think I will head to Tropical Smoothie first thing in the morning and get a good start on the day.
