1dp 5dt - Winding Down Bedrest

Have about an hour or two left, then sleep, then I'm a freebird!

Watched Babs in Yentl, finished Ken Follett's Fall of Giants (had about 250 pages left), started another book for book club next month, watched a documentary on Grand Central Station (Did you know there was a secret station under the Waldorf Astoria built for FDR and his automobile so that he could travel discreetly during WWII?)

Had a couple mild cramps in my lower left abdomen today - no headaches yet, but hoping they're on the way because that's a sure sign to me. Maybe the lovenox will change that? (not sure).

Will I POAS? I bought some sticks last week, but will only break them out if I'm about 90% certain of a positive outcome like I was during my last cycle. The cycle prior to that, I POAS'ed on my beta day (a Friday)and it came back BFN - so I stopped my drugs. On Sunday afternoon I felt crappy - so I tested again and it came back BFP. Sure enough, when the test came back on Monday, my HCG was over 300 - so I learned my lesson the hard way.

One day closer to beta day! 

Iveta and Hoping- You're next!

I LOVED Fall of Giants!! Like LOVED it...but I am a history junkie so I found the book so awesome...the fiction was excellent as it kept the history parts interesting. I can't wait until the next book in the trilogy...but bummer...won't be available until I think Fall 2012?!! Booo!! So glad you are doing well. Hang in there...and those cramps...that brings a smile to my face!!

Lisa - Did you read Follett's Pillars and World Without End? They are my FAVORITES. Wish he wrote more about this subject because it's absolutely fascinating. Also liked Jeffrey Archer's As The Crow Flies - especially if you like stories between the 1920's and WWII (one of my favorite period to read about).

Sounds very relaxing. Fingers crossed the embies are digging in, getting comfy and growing.
