Merry Christmas, Baby, Maybe

December 24, 2007

(Alternate Title: My Oversharing: Let Me Share It With You)

Huh.

Peakwtf

And now we wait. 14 days. Or so. Not that I'm paying obsessive attention, or anything.

We light up our tiki torches and break out our most flowery leis and dance to you, Oh Fertility Goddess!

Posted by: anne nahm | December 24, 2007 at 10:52 AM

wait what does that mean?

Posted by: wilddreemer | December 24, 2007 at 10:54 AM

Mine popped up this morning too. Here is a nice toast to some good fertility this month.

Posted by: Steph | December 24, 2007 at 10:56 AM

Fingers crossed! Merry Christmas!

Posted by: Theresa | December 24, 2007 at 10:56 AM

I hope you'll have sore boobs and that old barfy feeling to look forward to soon. Funny, having it right now I wouldn't normally wish it on anyone but for you I'll make an exception.

Posted by: heather | December 24, 2007 at 10:57 AM

Dear Santa,
Amalah wants a baby.
Love,
Ree

Posted by: ree | December 24, 2007 at 11:00 AM

EEEEE! Prayers and hugs!

Posted by: MMM | December 24, 2007 at 11:01 AM

I hope there's lots of exhaustion and nausea in your near future (and mine!)!! woo hoo!!!

Posted by: sarah | December 24, 2007 at 11:04 AM

that looks like a digital thermostat but I'm guessing this post has nothing to do with your home heating system?

Posted by: kalisah | December 24, 2007 at 11:05 AM

Woot! Goooooo lil' egg an' sperm! Wouldn't that be something if you had two kids born in Sept.

Posted by: Penny | December 24, 2007 at 11:11 AM

Baby making thoughts coming your way...Does that sound weird? Good luck!

Posted by: AMomTwoBoys | December 24, 2007 at 11:17 AM

Good luck Amy!

Posted by: kathryn | December 24, 2007 at 11:19 AM

You have all my prayers! Merry, Merry Christmas Storch Family!

Posted by: Kate The Great | December 24, 2007 at 11:22 AM

De-lurking to let you know you're all in my prayers! Go team Embryo!

Posted by: She Likes Purple | December 24, 2007 at 11:46 AM

Here's hoping your Christmas Wish is granted!

Posted by: Hero | December 24, 2007 at 11:55 AM

I don't know for sure what that means but good luck making a baby? YAY!

Posted by: Kiraa | December 24, 2007 at 11:56 AM

But of course. Because wouldn't the baby be due like...exactly on Noah's birthday? Or at least within a couple of days? I hereby decree...this is the month! :o)

Posted by: Leigh | December 24, 2007 at 11:57 AM

We'll all obsess for you so you don't have to!

Best Wishes and Merry Christmas!

Posted by: Paula | December 24, 2007 at 11:57 AM

AAAAAAAAA! What are you doing sitting and writing? Go have more sex! (Hai! I am in yer comments making extreemly persnal suggestions.)

Posted by: Michelle | December 24, 2007 at 11:59 AM

Coming out of Lurkerworld to send you many good baby thoughts. My wish for Christmas this year? A baby! Have been trying for a while and had a miscarriage so I can understand how difficult all that waiting must be for you.
BEST OF LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Beatrice Killam | December 24, 2007 at 12:03 PM

OK, I just went and took a little online class on fertility monitors. Am smart now! So I interpret this to mean you are at peak fertility and should be gettin' your groove on this very minute. It seems...so personal. You know, to know you are sexing it up this very minute. OK, well, maybe not THIS VERY MINUTE, but still.

Posted by: Amnesia | December 24, 2007 at 12:05 PM

I'm guessing that's a fertility monitor and not a new A/C thermostat. So, yay! Nao, plz to be having the sexx.

Posted by: Suzy Q | December 24, 2007 at 12:06 PM

Very fitting Christmas gift: and won't s/he be born like ON Noah's bday? Yay!!!

Posted by: Nichole | December 24, 2007 at 12:16 PM

Good luck and Merry Christmas!

Posted by: anna | December 24, 2007 at 12:30 PM

Fingers and toes crossed...

Posted by: Lisa M | December 24, 2007 at 12:32 PM

Here's a toast to you, ma virtual friend, since you probably shouldn't be drinking. I'll drink for you.

Posted by: Wacky Mommy | December 24, 2007 at 12:41 PM

Here's to you being knocked up!

Posted by: hello insomnia | December 24, 2007 at 12:43 PM

im in ur comintz sekshun, hopin 4 ur babyz

=]

Good luck Amalah! Here's to a new Babalah (we hope!)

Posted by: Miss Snippy | December 24, 2007 at 12:59 PM

Dear Santa Claus,

You brought me my new iPod, can you bring Amalah a fertilized egg and some morning sickness?

Love,

Sarah

Posted by: Sarah | December 24, 2007 at 12:59 PM

I've never seen one of those things before, but I'm guessing it means you're ovulating. So, I'm pulling for you! Have a Merry Christmas, and enjoy the effort, so to speak!

Posted by: lizinsumner | December 24, 2007 at 01:01 PM

I'm with the person who said it looks like a thermostat. What does it mean??? (Other than what I can guess from reading the comments, which is primarily "The boots, you must now be knocking them.") :)

Posted by: Maxine Dangerous | December 24, 2007 at 01:17 PM

Woohoo! Good luck!!!

Posted by: Kelly~ Mommy and the Marine | December 24, 2007 at 01:25 PM

Praying you get exactly what you want for Christmas this year.

Posted by: FishyGirl | December 24, 2007 at 01:35 PM

Woohoo! Way to ovulate!

Posted by: Jessica | December 24, 2007 at 01:54 PM

Maybe you should talk to Jamie Lynn Spears. She seems to know the magic formula for getting pregnant. :-|

Posted by: Wally Hartshorn | December 24, 2007 at 01:57 PM

Woohoo!

*Fingers crossed, and prayers sent*

Posted by: Angella | December 24, 2007 at 02:05 PM

yes, i'm a little slow...and a little dumb...does that mean you are ovulating?? if it does...yay...a baby would definitely trump all the other christmas gifts this year, eh?

Posted by: ali | December 24, 2007 at 02:09 PM

Woo hooo! I loved my fertility monitor. I think I did a little song and dance the first time it gave me the egg.

Good luck!! Lets hope the New Year brings good news. :-)

Posted by: Amber | December 24, 2007 at 02:24 PM

Thanks to the comments I now know what that picture is, good luck to you. Here's hoping for a fertalized egg for the Amalah family this Christmas!!!

Posted by: Christine | December 24, 2007 at 02:42 PM

I don't really know what that picture means...but I gather from the comments that the ovulation station has come to town?! Good luck!!!

Posted by: sarah | December 24, 2007 at 02:46 PM

I have all my fingers crossed for you this Christmas.

Posted by: Karen (miscmum) | December 24, 2007 at 03:03 PM

That would be the best Christmas present ever!

Posted by: sadie | December 24, 2007 at 03:10 PM

alternate alternate title: jasonalah's most favoritest christmas ever.

(sidenote: this, of course, is only funny if that gadget is saying what i think it's saying which is, it's business time. if not, then please ignore this comment, for i am an idiot. who's totally going to watch flight of the conchords right now, and who is totally afraid that i'm going to have that song stuck in my head all night.)

Posted by: supertiff | December 24, 2007 at 03:39 PM

What are you doing posting? Get to the baby dance, pronto!!! I guess you will be rockin' around the Christmas tree tonight eh?

Posted by: Kay | December 24, 2007 at 03:56 PM

Too bad I'm out of town at the Noah, so maybe you and Jason could get your groove on. Then again, maybe you should drop Noah off at my house. More privacy is good.

Posted by: jodi | December 24, 2007 at 04:13 PM

okay, I have no idea what happened to my comment. What I said was, too bad I'm out of town at the in-laws, I could have watched Noah...

Posted by: jodi | December 24, 2007 at 04:14 PM

Wait-does that mean you've been naughty or nice?

Posted by: Burgh Baby's Mom | December 24, 2007 at 05:05 PM

HOpe u and DD are doing lotz of BD'ing and lots of baby dust sprinkles for u!1!!!one!!! (GAGGGG)

No seriously, I think there is some scientific explanation for why siblings tend to be born close together. Perhaps some women just are more fertile at certain times of the year, and for you, that time is Christmas?

I bet if you drink lots of alcoholic eggnog and eat all the wrong cheese and ham that's been sitting out and just generally assume that "no way, I'm too stressed during the holidays to even ovulate, much less get pregnant so I might as well live it up!" that you'll totally get pregnant. Because that's just how it be is.

Nevertheless, have fun makin' the donuts, and good luck with that two week wait! Fingers crossed for you! Thanks for oversharing and Merry Christmas to the Storches!

Posted by: lizziewill | December 24, 2007 at 05:07 PM

p.s. Do you do the Robitussin? To get all nice and EWCM'y? (Am presuming you know what this is meaning.)

Talk about oversharing!

Posted by: lizziewill | December 24, 2007 at 05:09 PM

Hi,

Sending you some good luck all the way from Wisconsin.

Posted by: Them Country Folk | December 24, 2007 at 05:34 PM

Well, reading your comments made me cry. Especially the letters to Santa - which must mean I have little kids, am hormonal, too, and/or I drank too much mulled wine today...but all to say I hope you have a new baby here this time next year!

Merry Christmas!

Posted by: ML | December 24, 2007 at 05:46 PM

Keeping my fingers crossed!!!!

Posted by: Tam | December 24, 2007 at 06:36 PM

Have fun Christmas BDing! Sending you all my extra babydust. :)

Posted by: Corinne | December 24, 2007 at 06:40 PM

Hey, you never know. The whole siblings being born around the same time of year thing is true. Just ask my mom - my sisters and I (there are three of us) are all born within the same week in August (years apart, obviously), and I was the only "planned" one. ;)

Posted by: Dawn | December 24, 2007 at 07:12 PM

Merry Christmas! Hope Santa is good to you this year.

Posted by: Missy | December 24, 2007 at 07:33 PM

oh yahoo!!! now hope hope hope!

Posted by: Alissa | December 24, 2007 at 09:13 PM

Praying for you!!!

Posted by: Hayley | December 24, 2007 at 09:20 PM

Praying for you!!!

Posted by: Hayley | December 24, 2007 at 09:20 PM

Yeah, now I've got Flight of the Concords running through my head on repeat.

I hope Jason remembered his business socks.

Posted by: Diane | December 24, 2007 at 09:44 PM

What does a battery charger have to do with it?

Best of luck, and Merry Christmas.

Posted by: Emmie (Better Make It A Double) | December 24, 2007 at 09:48 PM

Good luck, break a leg (er...egg?) and all that. Keeping 'em crossed for you if you'll keep 'em crossed for me?

Posted by: Leah | December 24, 2007 at 09:53 PM

Totally thought it was a scale (cause of the lb)I'm cheering on your little egg with everything crossed!! Course you're probably not reading this as you must be down to just your socks, it is afterall business time.

Posted by: kobri | December 24, 2007 at 09:53 PM

Less posting, more boinking!

Here's for a very fertile Christmas!

Posted by: missbanshee | December 24, 2007 at 10:15 PM

Fingers crossed fingers CROSSED! :)

Hey, didn't you just pee on that?

Posted by: K | December 24, 2007 at 10:38 PM

oh oh oh! rubbing my belly for extra luck.

thanks for oversharing--you've got a whole world of fertility energy coming your way.

Posted by: bananie | December 24, 2007 at 11:46 PM

"HOpe u and DD are doing lotz of BD'ing and lots of baby dust sprinkles for u!1!!!one!!! (GAGGGG)"

OMG why did I put "DD"? I meant "DH", obviously I still have mommy brain and/or am used to writing DD because, uh that's what I have. Sorry, that was weird and gross, too bad I can't edit my comment

Posted by: lizziewill | December 25, 2007 at 12:25 AM

I can't tell you how, after having 6 babies and being very done on the hwole making babies deal, it is just glorious to be wishing it on someone else! Merry Christmas and may the new year bring nausea and voluptuous bosoms and all that great stuff.

Posted by: Helen | December 25, 2007 at 01:05 AM

SQUEEE!!! *geeky happy jumpy clapping*

Posted by: psumommy | December 25, 2007 at 03:03 AM

Fingers and toes crossed for you!

Posted by: Brighton | December 25, 2007 at 06:22 AM

Can you all also please send some fertility wishes my way as well? This wont detract from amalah's... Thanks.

Posted by: Eloise | December 25, 2007 at 06:33 AM

Good Luck Amy! Hope you get that BFP you're hoping for!!!

Posted by: Amy | December 25, 2007 at 09:39 AM

OMG, the CBE flashbacks.

Wishing you egg-noggy good luck!

Posted by: Kate | December 25, 2007 at 10:05 AM

You know what it's time for? Some Christmas sexxxxxin'. Awww yeah. Go to it, Amalah.

Posted by: Sara | December 25, 2007 at 06:03 PM

Good luck!!!! ::Crosses eyes, fingers, toes, legs, etc. etc.::

Posted by: Cat | December 25, 2007 at 06:42 PM

Seriously. Less posting, more sex. Get to work.

Posted by: Nette | December 25, 2007 at 06:57 PM

I hope that you get your Christmas wish.

Posted by: midlife mommy | December 25, 2007 at 08:33 PM

I too thought it was a thermostat. Measuring the temp of what, I am not sure. Anyhoo, to about eightythird the wishes of everyone else--it was meant for you guys to have more than one kid because Noah needs someone else around who is just as cute as he is.

Posted by: Missie | December 25, 2007 at 10:31 PM

Bestest of luck to you. Maybe Santa will bring you a fertilized egg for Christmas - you've been a very good girl this year!

Posted by: Michele Rowe | December 25, 2007 at 10:58 PM

that just made me way more excited than the whole rest of my day did. good luck!!!

Posted by: molly | December 25, 2007 at 11:57 PM

Best of luck!!!!
Also, because I was late reading your prior posts.
You are totally doing the right thing by taking Noah to therapy. You are not neurotic parents, you are parents who have made inquiries to the right people and whose concerns have been echoed by those people. Kudos to you for trying to do your best for Noah. I know how hard it is for you. I sympathize and I hope it gets better.
Merry Christmas. Sending you happy baby thoughts!!

Posted by: Dani | December 26, 2007 at 12:21 AM

Everything crossed for you.

Posted by: Maria | December 26, 2007 at 03:41 AM

I am praying for you !!!!
Happy B-day on the 27th.

Posted by: the bee | December 26, 2007 at 04:20 AM

Woot! What an exciting time! Here's hoping all goes well.

Posted by: Candy | December 26, 2007 at 09:34 AM

Boom chicka bow bow... get it on girlfriend...!

Posted by: Katie Kat | December 26, 2007 at 09:58 AM

Hell I am so OLD!!! I thought it was a calorie counter! LOL Then I thought, "I thought she was trying to get preggers". Then I started reading the comments. God bless you people who knew what it was!
Modern technology!
30+ yrs. ago we just "did it" until something happened! LOL

Posted by: Grammice | December 26, 2007 at 10:01 AM

It's a double whammy Christmas/Birthday miracle! Good luck, you crazy kids.

Posted by: Heather B. | December 26, 2007 at 10:04 AM

I'm sure you are busy in the boudoir (isn't that a great word?!?!) right now, but wishing you much babiness, because the world needs more chubby baby thighs! And Happy Birthday from a fellow 27th-er!

Posted by: WendyB | December 26, 2007 at 11:21 AM

In case I forget to stop by tomorrow, which isn't likely but hey, a house could fall on me or something...so happy birthday, and merry christmas, and keeping my fingers crossed for baby-making success! Whew!

Posted by: Elizabeth | December 26, 2007 at 03:55 PM

Here's to you, you boob hurting, cloudy peeing, nauseated almost could be the pregnant woman. Hoping for the next two weeks that something sticks!!!! Wishing you nine months of hormonal imbalance. Thank god Lifetime has quit with the Christmas specials Geezoflip!!!
