~April 22, 2012~
Hey guys i know it has been awhile since i have blogged lol but there has really been nothing happening even worth blogging about! So im doing pretty good excited about church tonight! I created a group for TTC ladies on facebook and i love it i just love having people that know what i am feeling and going through to talk to it helps me so much and anytime i have a question they are always there to help the best they can! :) So as you guys might know this month was kinda a little break for the hubby and i not trying yet trying at the same time lol the only thing we didn't do was OPK'S and track ovulation etc.... I thought since we are starting clomid next month that we could use a relaxing month right before! lol But that being said i didn't even know when i ovulated or if i did so the night before last i was having horrible leg aches while trying to go to sleep i actually tossed and turned alot because of it anyway so then last night i was having slight cramps and slight sharp pains in my right ovary area here and there then again while trying to sleep last night i was having the leg aches again so who knows what that is lol so i decided just for fun to do the math and add everything up to see if i had ovulated yet so i did that mabey 20 mins ago and guess what?!? Im actually 3 DPO today so i was like hmmmm..... Well, anyway who knows mabey it is a good sign and i pray that i do get my BFP if AF is a no show i will be ecstatic and if she isn't well then i will be excited also because that means its time to start clomid! So either way i will be happy!!! So it is officially 2 weeks and 2 days until my first clomid cycle and i am sooooo EXCITED!!! I cant wait i am so hopeful about this and i really believe that this is the light at the end the tunnel for us and i will hold on to the faith in god that he will give us our beautiful miracle baby!!! That being said even though i do have hope and faith and believe that it will in fact work there are also the what ifs' constantly running through my head because if this doesn't work we cannot afford the expensive step that is next which is IUI or IVF and we just cannot afford that so this truly is our last choice and our only hope so just please keep us in your prayers that this clomid will work in the 6 cycles that i am on it!!!! I love you guys and remember that our day is coming i promise!!!! <3

~Hope&Faith~
Hey guys i know i have not posted in a while and there is a reason of course lol. So as you guys know i was put on metformin on april 12th and i start clomid next month well the metformin has been making me SUPER sick for the first 4-5 days i could hardly even eat and all i felt like doing was laying in the bed!!! But i think the problem was all the soda that i was drinking since it is loaded with sugar and metformin is a insulin pill so...... anyway i stopped the soda all together and all i am drinking now is sweet tea which is working out very good because for the past two days now i have had almost no sickness thank goodness, not that it isn't worth it because it is and i would have continued to take it regardless!!! So that is the reason that i have not posted in a while! Anyway so i am very excited that my first clomid cycle is coming up in about 2 weeks and 6 days and i cant wait to see if i ovulate and see if it works for us i am truly having faith that it will but there are still the what if's that run through my mind! Since you can only be on clomid for 6 months (6 cycles) i just keep thinking what if it does not work? What if we are not pregnant in 6 cycles? It scares me to death because we cannot afford the really expensive step that would be next which is IVF. So just please keep us in your prayers and FX that this clomid is the light at the end of the tunnel and that we get our little miracle baby within the 6 months that i am on it!!! Well, i know it is short but that is really all i have for now i will try to post again soon!!! Love you guys and just remember our day is coming soon i promise!!!! Babydust to you all! :)))

~Excited~
Hey guys i know that i didnt blog yesterday after my BIG news, but it was such a lonnnng day and i was wore out so i am a little late haha anyway as you know if you read my blog we had our appointment yesterday the 12th of April 2012 and it was our last fertility test witch was for me and it was an ultrasound and also we found out all of our results and what we are going to do!!! So here is the news we both have a problem but its small! His test showed that he has low count and low mobility, I have PCOS which can cause you not to ovulate, but here comes some good news!!! It doesn't mean that we cant have a baby because we still CAN :))) Oh and my insulin wasn't where it should be and that can interfere with ovulation also but there is a fix for that also!! My OBGYN said that she has alot of hope that clomid will work for us! She gave me clomid and metophormin the metophormin is for the insulin situation! I start clomid next month, and i have already started the metophormin i take it everyday twice a day! :) I take clomid days 5-9 of my cycle and i have blood work every month on cycle day 23 to check for ovulation!!! She said that she had a couple that was in the same situation that we are in and she put the girl on clomid and she came in the office pregnant this month!!!! So i am very hopeful and relieved!!!! That is my news and i just wanted to share and tell you guys how excited and so much more hopeful that i am!

~April 9,2012~
Hey guys well today has been a pretty average day woke up pretty early since the hubby had his test this morning, yay so glad that done, now its just a waiting game until thursday, i am super duper nervous seems like forever until thursday lol but please everyone keep us in your prayers that everything will turn out good and that she will put me on clomid and it will work!!! :) I will be sure to let all of you know what happens thursday! :) So tonight i have decided that i am going to tell you what stress, sadness, and depression that i have been going through for the past 7 months and am still going through!!! Here it goes! First off let me say that i have always been and always will be a daddys girl! September of last year our family got a horrible call that totally changed our lives for the worse we got a call telling us that my dad had cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma) I will never forget this day, i was in total shock at first but when i finally accepted it i just broke down, the thought the fear all i could think was i cant lose my daddy i just cant i cant tell you how many sleepless night i sat up just balling thinking about that very thought! And i will also never forget the day that his hair started falling out, so he shaved it and shaved his beard (my daddy loved his beard) this killed me and i just broke down once more, then his blood count dropped super low one treatment and they gave him a shot to boost it back up thinking this was a very good thing i was at peace! Until one night i just couldn't sleep i didn't know why and its hard to explain but i just felt something was going to happen, well.... it did i all of a sudden heard my mom yell BRIDGET i was totally terrified at what i saw when i came upstairs my dad down on his knees with chest pain so bad we really thought it was a heart attack we ended up calling 911 and my mom rode in the ambulance as we followed that night i really thought that what i had been terrified of for months was happening, well after lots of test we finally found out that it was a reaction of the shot that they had given him to boost his blood count! Then after a few months of some peace something else came along and all of a sudden my dads arm swelled up and it was killing him, so here went another ER visit this time it was very bad news, after hours of waiting and worrying we found out that my dad had a blood clot on his lung and several in his arm, the doctor said that if he wouldn't have came to the emergency room it would have killed him!!! Here was another moment when i really thought that i was loosing my daddy, he was admitted in the hospital and was there for 5 days, during his stay my papaw was in the same hospital with pneumonia he is really not in good health at all but needless to say the same time my dad was in the hospital we found out that my papaw has small cell lung cancer the worst and most aggressive kind, they told us that there is no cure for this cancer and that the chemo is only to prolong his life as long as they can, so i have to set here and try to accept that i could lose my papaw at any moment! Now my dads cancer went into remission and we thought all was well today he went to find out the results of a check up scan and was told that it was showing abnormal lympnodes again and that it is possible that it is cancer again, he has a pet scan on wensday and we will know the results next monday so just please keep my family in your prayers! Below i will attach two pics the first one is my hubby, my daddy and i we bought some silly hats to support him in his hear loss when he first had to shave his head it meant so much to him! The second one is just a fav pic of mine of my daddy and i!!!! Well i guess that is all for tonight i love you guys and just remember our day is coming i promise!!!!! :)

I truly believe that everything is going to be ok, and i really believe that all our test are going to come out fine and that i will be put on clomoid and it WILL work i really truly believe that with all my heart i really think that our trial is about to come to an end and i feel i am gonna finally see the light at the end of the tunnel!!! I really believe that god is going to answer our prayer here soon and i have placed it in his hands, he has a plan i believe i will see and understand that plan here SOON :) And i give him praise and glory in advance i thank you lord for the beautiful healthy miracle baby that you are going to bless us with and all the praise and glory goes to you!

~April 7,2012~
Well today has been a pretty bad day lol woke up with a headache and it has stayed all day!!! Also i've just been pretty down in the dumps today ughhh. I just dont understand some things, i know that they are not meant to be understood and that its all gods plan but sometimes that gets a little hard to accept. After trying for 15 months with bfn after bfn, and one disappointing month after another it just starts to get more and more tough! I just do not understand why it has to be so hard to conceive for people who want a child so much, people who would do anything just to become a mother, and people who really deserve it, yet there are these little teenage girls getting "knocked up" everyday and either having abortions or keeping them yet hauling them off on there parents or some stranger and going out and drinking partying and doing drugs!!! I have tried to not think about this and just think its gods plan but like i said earlier in this post that is very hard to do sometimes. Unfortunately i am still in "that" mood and down in the dumps but i somehow always manage to pull myself out of it. But there are times that i just cry and ask why?!? Why cant i get my hearts desire, the only thing i yearn for? Why cant i be given that wonderful gift of life? Why month after month for 15 months now have i had to set here and watch everyone else around me get what i desire? Why month after month have i had to set here and cry over and over just wanting it? Why do i have to set in this torture and just a simple trip to walmart seeing mother with their child or logging on to facebook and seeing that someone is pregnant or pictures of mothers with their children and i just break down?!? I have never really understood or really ever come up with an answer to all those questions but all i can do is say god its in your hands and in your time, and just keep the faith that it WILL happen and that mabey just mabey these test are a step forward and that mabey this clomid god willing i be put on it that mabey it is the answer and that it will be my break through but all i can do is set here and pray that it is and that i will be put on it and that it will work, i pray that prayer every night and i will keep the hope and faith. And surprisingly these test have given me alot more hope then i have had in a while and the idea that i may be put on clomoid has given me such joy i know that it might sound crazy consitering that this medication can have some pretty bad side effects but i dont care it is all worth it to me!!!! And i have alot of hope that this clomid is our break and that i will become pregnant while taking it i think god is going to work this out for us and i will continue to believe that with all of my heart!!! "All things are possible through him" well i guess that is my vent for the day!!! I just want to say that i have a new BFF and TTC buddy her name is Kim and i am sooooo glad that we have become friends it is so comforting to have someone that you can get close to that is going through the same thing that you are :) Love ya Kim and i just want to say i hope that we become the BEST of friends!!! Well i guess that is the end of tonights post and i just want to say that i love you all and our day is coming i promise babydust to you all!!!!! :)

Well today has been a pretty average day lol woke up hurting of course since AF is here ughhhh!!! lol anyway other then that i have been studying all day, as that is pretty much what all of my days consist of but TGIF lol. I am doing pretty good today other then a random wave of depression as i thought about this whole TTC journey it has been a long road already and very tuff at times i think the hardest time was when i lost my little angel back in January of 2011 it was one of the worst times of my life! since i am already talking about it i mise well tell the whole story of my short 4 week pregnancy with our little angel so here it goes! We had just started trying and had no idea that i was already pregnant crazy huh? Well before i starting trying to conceive i didn't track my periods at all since they never start on the same day every month lol and i wasn't trying before this so i didn't really pay any attention. I had no idea that i was totally WAY late for my period until.... I know they say that it takes longer then four weeks to have symptoms, well that was so not the case for me at all! First thing i noticed was i was constantly tired no matter how much i slept, i still felt like i had been up for days! Next came the cravings nothing to strange i had to craving that i felt i always had to have and DH was constantly running out haha anyway the first was hot wings, OMG i could not get enough, the second was orange sherbet ice-cream with chocolate syrup my hubby said that one was gross and still to this day he does and now i even think it is but at that time i could not get enough! Next came the food aversion OMG horrible spaghetti i could not stand the smell of it, i would run straight to the toilet and barf, another one was the smell of mcdonalds ughhhh!!!! And the last one was Mt. Dew i LOVE it but when i was pregnant it tasted like chalk!!! The last thing i experienced before i lost the baby was horrible nausea i was throwing up atleast 6 times a day! Then on January 21, 2011 i started to spot i thought this is normal in early pregnancy and thought nothing of it the next day was HEAVY bleeding and horrible cramps way worse then AF then i noticed i was passing everything and that is when i Realized that i was loosing my baby and i totally broke down, collapsed in the floor and just broke down! I was a wreck for months and to this day i still have times when i just break down, but i just tell myself it was gods plan and i will see my sweet angel again one day in heaven.... Well thats the story of my loss and i know it was long but hey its alot of stuff lol anyway i hope you enjoy and i think i am going to take this exam ughhh and go to bed but love you guys and lots of babydust to you all, our day is coming i promise!!!!! :)
