In other news, guess who sat in the front row at Lady Gaga last night!!! It’s a terrible picture, but here I am – fake eyelashes and horrible wig and all!!! So fun!

I’m back on the TTC bus. 5 ½ weeks after the D&C, I got my period. Not too long, based on what I’ve heard from others. It’s nice to feel like my body figured it out. And without taking too long. I’m definitely crampy and it’s super heavy, but I’m past the miscarriage. We’re doing the miscarriage testing, and I know it will take awhile to get the results back, but we’re still going to try naturally the next couple of months. It hasn’t worked ever before, I don’t know why it would this time, but we may as well try, right? I’m going to break out my thermometer, and start temping tomorrow… And maybe throw an OPK or two in the mix as well. I opened my handy iphone app on Saturday to log in the first day of my period, and it said “101 days since your last period.” So sad…

Yay for being back in the saddle! It just feels good to be moving forward again... And perhaps you'll be struck by that mythical post-m/c fertility.
ReplyDeleteCute outfit-- and awesome house! This homeless girl is jealous!
It is interesting to see photos of my blog friends after I've know you all awhile, as I always have a vague image in my head that is based on nothing. My image of you was outdoorsy-looking, like with a ponytail and natural fiber clothing (maybe because Alex is a unisex name and you have the picture of the dogs...), but obviously this outfit isn't how you normally dress, so-- I am still guessing!
I'm so glad that the hag showed sooner, rather than later!
ReplyDeleteLove the pic!
Yay for getting going again. :) i'm so glad your body figured it out soon. Good luck with it all.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting about front row at Gaga! How'd you manage that? Love the wig!! :)
Glad you can start TTC again!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun concert!
Front row at GAGA!? AWESOME!!! Love the pic :-D
ReplyDeleteYay for jumping back in the saddle - hubs and I are about to start again too, I got my period friday. Here goes nothing, right? Hoping we both get lucky.
OMG! are you in Houston? I was dying to go to that concert!
ReplyDeleteI got mine last week, exactly 28 days after the D&C. It's dragged on and on, though -- I'm surprised there's anything LEFT in there! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm doing the same as you. It's ridiculous, I know, as it didn't work for 7 years pre-IVF...but it's been so long since I've temped or kept track of my cycles, that I figure it can't hurt. We're not going to do any treatments, but why not take a "natural" chance?
Hugs,
Jo
Nice photo, it is fun to see what you look like even in a styley wig!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you will be back on the TTC wagon, wishing you the best.
Well, there's something about not really trying that may help take the pressure off. At the very least, you will have low expectations! I am actually a little worried about trying amid all of my miscarriage testing, just my luck, i would get pregnant before we had it all sorted out and miscarry AGAIN! So I'm not trying, but we're obviously not preventing. Hubs and I have joked that we will never use conception again! (and worse case scenario end up with TWO kids!)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the picture! How fun!
OMG, I love the pic!! I could never pull off that look! You look like you were enjoying yourself so much. I hope that the results come back sooner rather than later!
ReplyDeleteyou look GREAT!! I love the wig and the fake lashes...very lady GAGA!!! How was it?? I just love her and cannot help but dance to every one of her songs!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad your period arrived and that it didn't make you wait that long.
I love love love that photo of you!! and I love more the fact that you are back on the train!! Thinking super positive thoughts for you my friend, love, Fran
ReplyDeleteWhat? That is NOT a terrible picture. You look fabulous! I hope you had a good time at the concert.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you as you get back onto the TTC train and sending lots of positive thoughts.
i'm so jealous you were front row at lady gaga!!! i'm sure it was a blast! yaay for starting to try again. just take it easy and let's hope for some goodluck :o)
ReplyDeleteSo cool that you dressed up for it! I think dressing up makes things a lot more fun (though I rarely get to go to things I could dress up for). Great pic! Now I have a face to put with the name ;)
ReplyDeleteYou look terrific! How much fun!!!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteWigs are fun! Hope you had a good time. I hope it feels good to be back to TTC. I have never tried one of those apps before since I've never been trying naturally since I had an iphone...hmmm...might add one.
ReplyDeleteYou look awesome!
ReplyDeleteOMG the cuteness! Plus I am mega jealous I love Gaga-here in Australia we call her the Gags!
ReplyDeleteI was so sad too when I read that line about the Iphone app. Stupid insensitive technology. But just hang on in there girl!! Your body is doing the right stuff which is a good thing :)
Glad things are back on *schedule*
ReplyDeleteSo jealous about Lad Gaga! First row?! Lucky duck. We're going to see her in a few weeks, but it's open seating and the chances of me fighting my way to the front are slim to none! Love the wig :)
Hi Alex, I'm here for the last day of ICLW.
ReplyDeleteI love that you posted this photo on your blog and in the same post where you talk about getting back to trying. You are ready! You are positive! You are Lady Gaga!
Best Wishes for trying naturally, opks and even temping!
Thanks Alex for all the nice comments your such a sweetie:)
