I don't remember if I said it for sure or not...James has pneumonia. And I am trying not to get it. Been sleeping through the day.
Here in MI the days are getting colder as we say good bye to summer and hello to my evil friend winter. Did I mention we haven't filled our fuel oil yet? I have faith that it will be okay, but with James off three days this week and a short paycheck from vacation...it is going to be quite tight. Bills are going to be late, but life happens.
On another note, my obgyn's office called finally. "Oh you got your Clomid filled right?" Uh yeah...and then told me about my two hour fasting glucose that I have to take. I have to fast overnight, get blood drawn. Drink a sugary drink that pregnant ladies drink, and then wait for an hour...get my blood drawn. Then wait for another hour and get my blood drawn again. Ooh boy can you sense my enthusiasm and excitement for such a test.
This is the test you get when pregnant and fail your first sugary drink test. And I get it when not pregnant without failing a one hour test. Oh goody, I am just one lucky ducky. What irony right? I get to experience another joy of pregnancy without having a baby growing inside of my belly.
*Sigh*
Still no +OPK it is lighter than when I first tested, what if I missed it?! Doubtful but I would cry...2 more days until normal ovulation day. Here's to crossing fingers and toes and praying that this month is our month. June 7th would be my due date according to countdowntopregnancy.com I would be excited no matter when our baby is due, but would prefer to not pop on Jenny's wedding day.
Another sad face =( I called KCC and they are now not getting the nursing letters out until the end of this month. Instead of the middle as I was told.
Booo! To most of this...ugh
I am ready for a healthy household, finances to be back in line, a baby growing healthily in my womb, and to get the good news about the RN program. Please keep me in your prayers!
My friend was told that they wouldn't have the letters out until October! :( She was number 40 on the waiting list, so I'm sure she's in this coming semester!
ReplyDeleteAre they doing the glucose testing to see if you are diabetic or pre-diabetic? Do you take OPKs in the morning and at night?
The girl I'm working with at my community clinical said that there was a woman who had her baby in the middle of 145 and they gave her a ton of problems returning to class after she had her baby. They wouldn't even let her participate in the lab (which is considered clinical) until she had a note from her doctor. Another girl who was six weeks made the mistake of announcing her pregnancy so she had to try to bust arse to get permission to participate in clinical when she hadn't even been seen yet.
If we get pregnant I hope you're right about them working with me! I would be soooo SOOOO ecstatic to get pregnant. We've been waiting so long to start TTC!
My only hopes of getting in is for the competitive seats. And there are only 16 of those, with an additional 64 seats that are non competitive.
ReplyDeleteI was borderline diabetic with my regular last fasting test. So this is to decide if it was a one time thing or something that has been hiding. (I'm still thinking it is my eating habits lately...I have an insatiable sweet tooth).
I would think you could get a note from your doctor right away for you classes if you explain the situation. And that girl was just stupid (lol...) simply because you know that you are supposed to have a doctors note when in the nursing program if pregnant...even had to for CNA class.
I have faith that they will work with you, especially if you are such a hard worker as you sound like. I have faith that they will work with me if I do end up pregnant. :-) And if not, I will wait another year for classes if it means I get to have a little blessing!
I hope you hear sooner then later. And that sucks about the borderline diabetes. Is the clomid causing the sweet tooth? I found chewing gum helped a LOT with mine! We have a gift shop at work that sells candy by the pieces. I used to hit that up all the time until I started chewing the gum to give me something sweet to taste.
ReplyDeleteI know, that girl just wasn't thinking. She's really nice and all and I'm sure she was just really excited to tell all of us, but she should have held out a little bit longer, lol. Like until she was seen and got a note. Lesson learned for her! I wonder if she was able to get that note in time...
I hope if I do get pregnant they do work with me. :) Actually if I do get pregnant and I don't go into preterm labor, then I should be good to go as I wouldn't be due until June... Aggghhhh!! I shouldn't get my hopes up. We've broken the rules in the past and never got pregnant. (But we never cut it this close before either!)
I agree about the diabetes thing...but I knew it was a huge possibility. I don't know if that is a side effect of clomid. I think it is probably all the extra hormones running through my body. I used to do gum all the time, I need to pick that habit up again!
