Well, I have not been blessed with a pregnancy in 2010. I have, however, had a s**tload of procedures and treatment over the past 9 months or more to give me a flavour of all the pregnancy complaints. Let's see, I've had...
Clomid induced morning sickness,
LH constipation,
Gonal F bloat (aka the baby bump look alike),
HCG trigger shot fatigue,
Post anesthetic brain fog,
Dexamethasone insomnia,
Progesterone breast tenderness,
Exercise restriction weight gain,
HSG/IUI Braxton Hicks uterine contractions,
Endometrial biopsy/ D&C full labour pains, AND...
More ultrasounds than I can shake a wand at!
They keep dangling that hope of a real pregnancy in front of me like a carrot, but unfortunately a baby has yet to emerge from all of this. It feels like such a tease. Come on, I'm done with the warm up, give me the real thing, I think I can handle it.

hmmm.. well the interesting and VERY positive thing about all this is that your body responds to the hormones that are involved in getting you pregnant..
and i've got my fingers and toes crossed that 2011 is your year too!

OR, I just so desperately want to be a mom that I have psychosomatic pregnancy symptoms. LOL!

I like how your blog puts all those symptoms in a nut-shell ;)
Good luck in 2011 :flowers:
