Cleaning closets

Yesterday I finally decided to remove the last of the baby items from the spare room.  We had converted the crib to a full size bed a couple of months ago and I decided it was time.  I tackled our overflowing linen closet and the closet and dresser in the spare room.

I can tell you it was a task not without emotion.  Almost 2 years since Gavin's conception and I've finally packed up the remnants of baby.  The items that I spoke of here finally went into a tote along with a few other items.

This tote will go to the basement where all the rest of Brennan's baby stuff is stored.  I had to wonder though how much longer I should be keeping those things.....the thought of getting to use them again is looking just a little bit bleak....and each day that passes slightly more bleak.

I've started my "second" clomid cycle (not my second ever but since d & c/after failed IUI's).  I think I had a decent ovulation on CD 19 with last cycle and I am keeping my fingers crossed that this cycle will have similar timing.  Regardless I am all set with my OPK's this time and there won't be so much guess work (I hope).

I have my RE appointment tomorrow morning.  The plan is to see the bereavement counselor first, then see the RE.  Should be a full morning (I anticipate a wait for the RE!)  It's been 5 months + already since my D & C in March.  I really hope we have some results for tomorrow's appointment.  At least with that information it will help up to decide what we are going to do next.  It will be November before mine and DH's karyotyping comes in.

I am sure I will have an update tomorrow.
