Time for a quick update....

Boy time sure does fly ! Nothing too much exciting going on around here. We just came through the long weekend EXHUSTED but happy.

I spent the weekend with Lynne, Carmen, Hannah, Sara and Jayda... what a blast. It was great spending time with all the babies. I had a few sad moments when I would think about my little angels and wishing there were still here with us... but then one of thew girls would grin at me or need something and I would jump back to the here and now. Jay stayed busy with the guys working on eves and fencing and totally enjoyed himself.

This weekend was a different experience for us. In all the time we have been together the most time we have spent apart was a few hours. With me working and the boths of us being busy with different parts of the family when I wasn't working we maybe had a total of an hour together from Friday evening when I went to work til all the work was done Monday evening. It certainly isn't something we are used to doing but we got through it lol and it made coming home Monday evening that much more enjoyable lol ;)

Today we went to see Dr.G for followup after losing Trouble. UGH sitting in that waiting room was torture... thankfully it was only for a few minutes. He was super nice and very sympathetic. At this point he thinks it was jsut another fluke of nature :( Not what I wanted to hear but then I didn't want to hear something was wrong either... though in someways that would make it easier than thinking it was somehow my fault :(

We did discuss various tests and he can't do anything thing until we lose a third confirmed pregnancy... god forbid it happens again. He did say that he will run every test imaginable right down to a biopsy of my uterus if we do lose another baby... good to know but I am praying for all I am worth that we won't have to ever run those tests. He did give us some positive information. He said that the Dr who id my d&c took a good look at my "stuctures" lol and everything looks really good... I guess sometime the shape of the uterus can casue miscarriages.

He also said that the pathology report for Trouble came back good. He reviewed the one for Peanut again while we were there too. He said that for some of the antibody tests I asked about it would have been apparent as the cause of both miscarriages... so that was a relief. We discussed trying again and he wants us to go ahead after one cycle( typical for post miscarriage) We have a plan in place if things don't start on thier own but he's pretty confident that they will.

He also started me on the metformin again... my miracle drug it would seem :) We talked a bit about using progestrone supplementation becasue of the PCOS and he explained a lot of the research to us and how its mostly used if there is a luteal phase defect... not likely I have that so until it becomes evident he won't supplement. We did talk about staying on the Met as well when I become PG again... he disagrees but did talk a little bit more about the research and some data gathering a Dr here in the city is working on. Jay and I will be doing more research and we will talk in more depth with Dr.G when I become PG again. Ultimately he might not like it but the final decison will be for me and Jay to make.

So there we have it. Not a ton of news but then it wasn't all bad either. Its just gonna be a long few weeks before we can try again. In someways I am ready to try this very minute and in another the break even if for a few weeks will do us good and allow a bit more time for our heart's to heal. And on the plus side if I am not PG I can still get my tattoo lol. I finally have a plan in place with Steve... now we just have to make an appointment. I can't wait! He found the most perfect cheub for me :) :) When its all said and done I'll be sure to post a pic.

Well off to do a bit of scrap booking and relax before work :P Its gonna be a LONG day tomorrow... I work OT and then we have a company BBQ to go to and we are on the clean up crew... me and my big mouth lol so I best relax while. I can TaTa for now :)
