A little update, plus "day in my life"

I just thought I would update so I have a record of this pregnancy. My progesterone levels are at 17.something. Still low zone 2. PPVI asked me NOT to call them about results and that they will call me if there should be any changes with the progesterone injections. I only call them once every two weeks to find out how my levels are doing. Am I wrong to think I am paying BIG bucks for this and I am anxious about how things are going...SO why can't I call and find out my levels? The nurse really hurt my feelings by saying that. After all this is the first pregnancy I have had in 7 years that happened with out shots, pills, etc. so of course I am a bit anxious about things.

I LOVE reading a day in the life that some of the bloggers have been posting lately. So I thought I would give it a shot too.

7:30am. Dh puts Lucy in bed with me while I beg him to please call in late for work so he can watch her because I am to tired. He leaves for work anyways and Lucy and I go down stairs. Lucy plays with her toys while I lay down and watch/play with her.

8:00am make scrambled eggs for Lucy and I have a cup of yogurt. resume playing in the living room.

8:30am talk with my sister for a few minutes on the phone :)

9:00am make some sausage and eggs for Dh. (home on a break)

9:15am back to playing in the living room. (obviously we have slow mornings)

9:30am Try to nurse Lucy down for a nap...didn't work.

9:45am. My mom calls and we decide to meet for lunch.

9:50am still playing with Lucy in the living room.

10:30am Try nursing Lucy again for nap. Yeah, she is asleep.

10:45am Talk with my sister on the phone. She decides she is coming to book club at my house tonight.

11:00am Get showered and dressed. Jump in bed for a nap.

12:15pm Wake up, get Lucy dressed for the day. Feed her some turkey chili with cheese. make Dh a sandwich. Make a snack for myself.

1:00pm Walk next door to the school. Drop off Dh lunch and pick up cell phone from Dh.

1:15pm Pack up diaper bag (which Lucy unpacked and spread everywhere earlier this morning) leave for lunch date with mom.

1:40pm. Pick up mom from dad's office drive around looking for place to eat lunch. Finally decide on stopping at W.hole Foods. My dad ends up joining us for lunch. Lucy snacks on fruit, water, and chocolate chip cookie samples.

2:30pm. Go to eye doctors place to help pick out glasses for my dad. I was no help there with a baby so Lucy and I drive home.

3:15pm stop by compounding pharmacy to pick up progesterone.

4:00pm Finally made it home with Lucy who is very fussy. I had her skip her nap so she would go to sleep early since I am hosting book club at my house tonight. I change her diaper and nurse her with a video popped in the DVD player to keep her awake.

4:10pm Take Lucy to the school next door to play with the children in the after school program. Lucy crawls around everywhere and plays with the children while they try to watch a a movie.

4:55pm Go home. Start dinner for Lucy and myself. Leftover spaghetti. Take Lucy's dress off since spaghetti is sooo messy. Give Lucy Spaghetti and water for dinner.(we're out of milk). I eat my dinner with her. Save some dinner aside for Dh.

5:45pm. Pick up all toys off the floor. Vaccuum while holding Lucy since she is afraid of the vacuum. Sweep the floors while holding Lucy or else she chases the broom. Set up dinning room with desserts and drinks for tonight.

6:30pm Give Lucy a bath. Scrub toilet and sink while Lucy is soaking in the tub playing with her toys.

6:45pm. Get Lucy dressed for bed. Dh comes home from work and plays with Lucy while I run to the store. As I am leaving the store I see my brother at a restaurant across the street. I hurry up and jump in my car to try to follow him. he is a state trooper and on duty right now. I pull up beside him and yell "loser" (joking of course) and he follows me home (just a few blocks)with his police lights on to have me pull over. I don't pull over though because he is my brother and I know he is just teasing me. My brother stops by my house just two minutes before being called out to a car accident.

7:00 pm Put away groceries. My sister arrives after driving 2 hours for book club. So nice. Lucy is ready for a meltdown.

7:05pm. I take Lucy upstairs to bed and nurse her to sleep while singing her her night time song.

7:30pm Lucy's in bed for the night. I visit with my sister a few minutes before the ladies start arriving for book club.

10:00pm Lucy wakes up to nurse. I say a quick good-bye to my sister and the last girl remaining from book club and run up stairs to nurse Lucy.

10:15:pm Call my sister to see how her drive home is going.

10:30pm Get ready for bed and tell Dh funny stories that were shared during book club. Dh stays up to finish watching a foot ball game.

10:45pm Go to bed for the night.

Gees that was a lot of work to type out, haha! Hope you all don't find it to boring ;)
