32 pills and 2 shots in one day?! Plus DD drama

So on new years eve, first day of meds, I ended up taking 32 pills and 2 shots! :) Currently I am on estrace, aspirin, prenatal vitamins, tea pills, vitamin e and L arginine. Plus SQ lupron and IM delestrogen(tues and fri) :) I've been drinking pineapple juice in attempt to cover that base as well, and I have given up caffeine in the forms of coffee and soda. I had acupuncture yesterday that was my best session so far. I can't get enough of it! Next appt is Tuesday the 7th with my ultrasound at 8 am Wednesday the 8th. I don't think I've hit 32 pills again, as I have replaced one dose of tea pills with the L arginine. I've already had a couple days of pretty serious cm and a pretty good bloat going on. Oh and I think I have managed to gain 2 lbs! :) My ensure will be here tomorrow, so I will get extra protein and what not :) Less than 3 weeks to go!!! 

So....DD#1 is having a hard time lately. She got the official ADHD diagnosis. Things have been difficult at school and a little at home as well. I am not very organized but thats ok for me. On the other hand not being very organized is really hard on her. She recently made the decision to only go to her dad's house once a month. He is not taking very kindly to that. He just threw the word court at me, which I think would be a good idea but an expensive idea. I feel it is more important for her to be successful at school and establish relationships with adults that will treat her with respect than to continually have to deal with the feelings of neglect the inconsistency causes her. She doesn't feel as secure at her dad's house and he can not put her needs above his own. He doesn't even see what he is doing. He has moved 10-11 times in the last 10 years and out of 26 weekends over the last year he has rescheduled 15. She pretty much stays in her room, according to her, while she is there, and does not like the routine her dad has established. She has tantrums when she comes home, takes hours to settle back into our house. Her dad drags her to weddings, parties, church, his in laws, etc when she is there and she does not like that. She feels like her dad doesn't know her at all and does not trust her or respect her. So after talking with her several times, and her begging me for years, I finally told her dad that she would not be coming every other weekend anymore. Only once a month. Well he doesn't want to do that. He said that is not enough time to have consistency with her. He denies being selfish and feels he has earned the right to see her at least every other weekend. "even a court would agree" he said. He said he does everything I have ever asked. Which has been 5 reschedules out of 26, but probably only 5 out of 46. OH! and he wants to spank her. I'm tempted to take complete custody of her, and not let him see her until a court makes me, but I am not up for that much of a battle. He only agreed to letting this one weekend slide and that he would talk to her when he sees her on the 17th. So I am going to have to figure something out. We see the psychologist on the 14th. Hopefully she can help us.
