Here we go...

I have my clomid challenge test (CCT) this cycle. I had to wait for AF of course, and it was 5 days late. I'm sure my body is still trying to recover from everything which is why it was late. My CD3 bw and u/s are tomorrow EARLY in the morning. I will then be on clomid from cd5-cd9 and go back on cd10 for bw. I'm still upset that I have to re-do this test before they will move forward with anything. But hopefully it will show more accurately where we are at and how/when to move forward.

Work is going ok. My employer is home from the hospital. She had her sister in town this week to help her get back into life, but I'm sure it will be a bit before she is back to herself.

Church was ok on Sunday. I'm planning on going again this Sunday. It was good to be with the kids again. The sermon was difficult as it was all about families and child/parent relationships with emphasis on being the parent vs. the child.

I think I have found a new project to work on during the next IVF for our baby. It will be along the same lines as the faith quilt, I made. This will be a faith knitting project. I'm trying to jump that chasm of doubt and make it over to faith again. I'm not there just yet, but I'm hoping as the time for our IVF approaches, I'll be ready to move forward with faith.

Weight loss. I'm trying to lose 20 lbs. before the next IVF. I'm on week 3 of this. The first week I lost 6 lbs. Last week I lost 3 lbs. This week I've gained 2 lbs. I'm trying not to be discouraged. I wasn't able to work out as much this week and did eat out twice. So, I've lost a total of 7 lbs. of the 20. I still feel like I will be able to lose the rest before IVF.
