Cycles Shortening!!!

Well, the last cycle was 52 days long. This cycle - was 38 days. This cycles was a whole 2 weeks shorter. This means my cycles are getting back to normal; which means my body is getting closer to being ready for conceiving a new bundle of joy!!! I've never been excited to start a cycle, but this time I really did get excited!!!

Nursery Furniture

Here is the Heritage Collection in Cherry by Creations Baby. We've been looking at the collection on the internet; but we finally got to see it in Lake Charles this past weekend and we loved it just as much as we thought we would. You can visit the manufacturer's website @ http://www.creationsbaby.com/. You can see all the peices of this collection @ http://www.creationsbaby.com/pdfs/6025.pdf.

UPDATE 7/9/09 this furniture is no longer manufactured... We'll keep looking.

Furniture Shopping

We're going to Lake Charles this weekend to look at Nursery Furniture. Hopefully we'll remember to take the camera...

There may be a Delay

I spoke with the nurse today and she told me that since my cycles have been as long as 52 days with no indicative peek, I'm probably not ovulating yet. This is due to the birth control pill that i took for less than a year... It may take up to 6 months for my cycles and ovulation to get back on track... I hope it doesn't take that long...

Doctor Visit...

Casey and I went to the OB/GYN today for my checkup and to make sure the doctor gave us the thumbs-up on continuting with our plans. He gave me a clean bill of health and gave me some different prenatal vitamins to try. He said the over-the-counter vitamins I was taking probably had too much Iron, causing me a headache...

Bad Prenatal Vitamins

Well... I had to quit taking my prenatal vitamins today because they were giving me severe headaches. I'll see what the doctor says...

Preparing for Baby!!!

The first thing we did was finally go through all of the junk we had accumulated and thrown into a "junk room". We decided in order to have a baby room (nursery), we really had to have a room devoted as a nursery and another room decorated as a guest room/office. We (mostly Casey) painted the guest room in an LSU theme. It's so cute! That's what we planned and accomplished during the month of January. We moved everything back into the room, now we're waiting to decorate a nursery!!!

We're Trying to Conceive

We decided to start a family!!!! YAY!!! I took my last pill in December!
Also, in January Casey ordered a book, Taking Control of Your Fertility. I've been reading it and learning a lot of things I didn't know. I started charting my basal temperature and taking prenatal vitamins on 2/10/09.
