I know it’s been a couple of days since I last updated the ol’ blog, so I figured I’d give you the low-down on what you’ve missed:
- My sister-in-law’s baby “sprinkle” was on Saturday, and that was super-fun! My twin nephews are going to be very spoiled. 🙂
- The husband and I went away for the weekend to meet our new goddaughter. She was amazing and adorable and sweet, and I didn’t even try to steal her once!
- It was nice to be away. We were able to steal away for a few minutes on Sunday morning to check out the beach in Ludington, Michigan, where I haven’t been since I was a kid. It was a beautiful day, and we enjoyed every minute of it!
- From there, we drove down to Grand Rapids to meet up with my family and have a nice Mother’s Day lunch. It was great to see everyone again, especially our adorable little curly-haired niece!
- When we got back to the Toledo area, we made the rounds to see the husband’s mom, grandma, and sister for a quick Mother’s Day visit. Then we went to bed and crashed. Hard.
- On Monday morning, I drove up to the research clinic for my post-insemination ultrasound and blood work.
- My lining was good at a 16, and my progesterone came back at a 29. Not too shabby!
- A funny thing happened on Saturday night: I started getting these little stabby cramps in the general lower pelvic area. Sometimes they were sharp enough to make me double over or catch my breath!
- They came and went throughout the evening on Saturday, came back a few times briefly on Sunday, and continued Monday from about 10am till at least 8pm! Weird!
- Today, I am trying to maintain sanity as I contemplate the possibility of implantation cramps and wait for the trigger to test itself out…
And here are some photos from the weekend:
Happy Tuesday, friends!
Just Stop Trying and It Will Happen...
