Normal! Normal? Normal.......

So, all my tests came back "normal", very normal to be exact. It's a relief in a very small way to know that I didn't do anything to harm the babies. It doesn't make it better but I feel a little less guilty.

The Mister needs to get his blood test done...maybe tomorrow. There are no labs open on Saturdays 'round these parts so it's a matter of him leaving work early to get it done. Hopefully tomorrow. I expect his genetic tests will be normal as well.

So, we'll never really know what happened to them. Placenta issues. Chromosome issues. We'll consult with the RE on next steps in a few weeks. I'm going to ask about low dose Heparin for next time as extra insurance. Won't hurt to ask. Right?

On a funny note, The Mister and I walked out to the mailbox together tonight. In it he finds a big manila envelop from the IRS. Yikes! He stares at it, says..."Huh...I wonder what it's about." Me? I grab the envelope an open it up as we walk up the sidewalk...lo and behold....

Wait for it.....




Calendars!

Um. What the f*ck? Why did we get IRS calendars????? The Mister looks at me....chagrined and says, "Oh that! I found them on Dealnews!"

Me: "Are you kidding me? Calendars from the IRS?! I don't want calendars from the IRS!"

Him: "Well.... they were free!"

Seriously. He is a such a dork. I open it up and it's got tons of reminders to submit your Employee taxes and crap like that. I am so not using that darn thing. There were 2 in the envelope. Silly Mister.

bwahahahaha! Calendars? Good grief. Just want to mention it's been really conflicting for us to have gotten rock star test results across the board yet never conceive. A relief on the one hand but left with more questions on the other. Sounds like good news for your FET though.

Seriously I just looked at the stupid calendars and they're for "small businesses or the self-employed"...we are neither!

I hear you about the tests. I can imagine how frustrating that is for you and your Mister. I still think you will conceive. I also think you'll do IVF after you adopt #1. Don't know why I think that but I do. :-)

While the tests show nothing, I really want to pull out all the guns so I do this next one with a clear heart/mind/conscience, knowing there's nothing left to do. Won't make it easier if it doesn't work except that I won't feel as though I didn't try everything.

It's going to work though. It will.

I am such a girl who "needs" to know. It must be frustrating not to know what really happened, but maybe that first step to healing is all about knowing that at least it wasn't something you did. One step at a time.

I have been there also...15 vials of blood and 10 losses and we are told that we are both Normal!!
Makes you nuts, I was secretly wishing for something so that I could fix it. I found it more frustrating as to us both having no issues.

Calendars from the IRS?...Boy they really want us to know when our taxes are do..All they want is to make sure they get their Money!!
