AF is about to show up again for me, so I thought I'd check on ya, Rachel...
How did your month go?

Mine was stressful. So bd'ing didn't really happen. Hence, AF tomorrow or Mon. Blah.
On another note, our homestudy will be ready to be signed Mon, and we're meeting with an adoption agency Dec 6th. I'm happy about it, but still sad I'm not pregnant when everyone around me seems to be able to. :(

Ooo keep us updated! I don't know if we'll go that route, but I sure want to see the process.

This month was a no go. I tried to get my iodine and keep going with just eating sources of it.. eggs, yogurt, etc. It didn't work. I'm on cd36 and I don't feel like AF is around the corner, so I suspect I'm skipping and going hit hit 40+ cycle days for the first time since Feb. I am up a few pounds and feeling weak on top of that. I may try taking Iosol drops, it's not what I overdosed with (kelp sups+topical application). Hubby takes it already with no problem. But I want to get my christmastime trip overwith beforehand just in case, so I don't repeat the last, on edge after OD visit. Despite the regular cycles iodine sups gave me.. it seems we have too many other fertility issues. I rolled out some BFNs-usually don't test anymore. I don't think I took it as bad as when Clomid didn't work. But I hate when rising expectations come crashing down.

Lots of love...[huddle]

Will do! I'm excited, nervous and anxious about the whole process... I'm not sure if it's really what I want, but I'm just gonna keep taking the next step and seeing where God leads us. He hasn't closed the natural route for us yet, but I'm afraid it may be closing on us as I head towards 35 next June and dh's #s and morphology dropped between his 2 SAs... :( it's so numbingly saddening...

AF showed up today so I'm a little extra sensitive. Ok, a lot. Lol
