Just checking in

Well, this 2 ww has been really hard. In my heart I know it will be a negative blood test on Thursday, so I am trying to think towards the future and not dwell on it. We are going to take some time off from ttc after this month. It is getting too hard to see the bfn's every month. No one really understands that we've been trying for almost 3 years, and seeing specialists for over a year now to no avail. It's frustrating! It is nice to have a network of people out there who are either going through the same thing or who have been through it. It's really nice to get positive comments and hope.
I have had my progesterone levels checked this month, and thanks to the endometrin that I'm on, my levels have stayed up this time! The last 2 cycles of Clomid my progesterone dropped at the second check. Maybe that is a positive sign. I have been testing though.....which as many of you know is not a good thing! It almost feels like a waste of money everytime I get 1 line, or a not pregnant on the stick. But, alas, I CANNOT stop!!! I will continue to check until my blood test on Thursday.
I am going to the nutritionist tomorrow morning at 7:30 am. I only have about 3 weeks left on the program. I am at a total of 41 lbs so far. I am feeling better and my clothes are looser, so I think it is working. Hopefully I can continue to lose even off the program. I want to eat food!!! :)!
DH is feeling better, although not 100% yet. My grandfather is back home after a bout of pneumonia in the nursing home last week. He is looking much better and so far...so good. He has a wonderful caretaker at home with him. She has been cooking him some delicious food and taking good care of him. I hope he will continue to progress this week and make it into church on Sunday. Everyone keeps asking for him! He is definitely a loved man.
I cannot believe Christmas is almost here. I need some ideas! The people in our families have everything, they are so hard to shop for! I always feel like our gifts are going to stink because they have so much!
I hope everyone has a wonderful week, and I will update tomorrow after my appointment! I'm sending lots of good thoughts and prayers out to everyone!
