Update for the week

So I went to the nutritionist yesterday....and I gained 4 lbs!! I was shocked, but then I realized.....I am off my blood pressure meds! I went off them last Thursday due to possible pregnancy from the Clomid 100 this month. One of the pills I was taking is a schedule C for pregnancy (meaning it has been proven fetotoxic in lab animals, but no human testing thus far), and I'd rather be safe then sorry. The other pill I was taking was a water pill, so the nutritionist is sure that the extra weight is water weight.
I am going in tomorrow morning at 7:30 am to get my pregnancy test (which will be negative), and then 1 hour later I am getting a biopsy done of my uterine lining. It is the last test I need to have done to continue with the Clomid.
My birthday weekend was so wonderful. My DH is the best husband any girl could ask for. He took me to NYC on the train (way less stressful than driving to the ferry), where we enjoyed a blueberry scone and a white chocolate mocha at the bookstore around the corner from the train station. We then took a cab up to FAO Schwartz, only to find the didn't open for another hour or so, so we went into the Apple store instead. We bought something (a Christmas present for someone special), then took a cab to Bobby Flay's restaurant Bar Americain for brunch. The food was PHENOMENAL! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone for any occasion. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! If you ever go there try the warm potato chips with blue cheese sauce. They were the most wonderful part of our meal. DH tried the cracked wheat waffle and I had the onion soup with the blue cheese salad. All of it was so tasty. Then we went around the corner to Broadway where we saw Shrek the Musical! It was hilarious!!!! We laughed through the whole thing. I also got a pair of Princess Fiona ears with a tiara on them, and I wore them through the whole show. After the show we went back to FAO Schwartz to get our nephew a little surprise, and we bought him a little stuffed puppy (he loves puppies!). Then we headed back to the train station to catch the train back home. My dear SIL picked us up from the train station and took us back home where we hopped in the car and flew down to my favorite restaurant, Harry's. I enjoyed crab dip, a crab cake salad and creme brulee!!! It was delicious! So all in all I had a wonderful birthday weekend!!!
I am hoping that I get a surprise positive at the doctors office tomorrow, but deep down inside I know it will be negative and I don't want to get upset this month. I am just looking at it like I need to get the biopsy done, so one more month we'll wait to get pregnant. I will update tomorrow morning after the biopsy. Have a good day!!!
