Good News!

We had a dr. apt today to get back all the results from the tests we have been taking in the past few weeks, Everything came back good so we now have to wait till may 3rd to see if by any chance I am pregnant if I am not then we go back and start round one of Chlomid after one month of that we go back and if still not pregnant we up the dose and wait again if still not pregnant then we will move to a different process.....I am just thankful we have good news no more sleepless nights! maybe we will be lucky and have baby shoes in our house in a year or so! Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers please keep them coming!


Also Just want to let you all know that we had a awesome time in Virgina/ Washington Dc lots of history and neat things to do and see! I will upload some pictures soon! <3

More Dr. Apt!

Well today was yet another Dr. apt well a test, Greg has his SA test and I could not believe it was $120.00 for a hour drive and to fill our 4 pages of paperwork.........Oh well I was glad to do it, we made a day out of it. We got to visit our cousin Carolyn and ran into our Uncle Mike so we all went out for breakfast/lunch and then visited and came home. Tomorrow is my X-ray to see if my tubes are open so I had to go pick up my prescription and start that for the test tomorrow after that I think we are done until the 25th of this month!

Starting the 15th we are going on vacation to have a good time and not stress and worry about what the tests will say, and I have a feeling we are going to be so busy on our vacation we wont be worrying about the Dr. apt to come! I will post pics and fun stuff we get to do on our vacation we are getting to go tour the white house and other fun things!

Hormonal I think so!

I have cried way to much today! seems I cry over everything right now!!!

Started this morning when one of my Daycare babies miss Maycen got here and she had to have shots and her finger pricked I felt so bad for her, I rocked her to sleep and then started to cry because I will be going on vacation for 10 days and I am going to miss her! I sobbed like a baby! later on this evening I was talking to my Aunt about memories and I lost it again happy tears and sad ones oh my!

I am not alone!

I'm laying here in bed watching the new show on bravo pregnant in heels and the main character Rosie Pope is talking about ivf and how sad it makes her being around women that are pregnant, seeing that hit home that I am not alone there are tons of other women out there dealing with fertility issues! Seeing her give herself the injections kinda frightens me lol but those baby shoes will so be worth it!

The start of our Journey to Baby shoes!

A friend of mine gave me the idea of blogging as a way of helping me through these some times challenging times in my life, and with that here I am! My husband and I decided a little while back that we were ready to start our family easy right....WRONG! I just assumed when you were ready you go off birth control and there you go baby! I mean everywhere I look I see young girls with babies women with babies, babies everywhere so how hard could it really be? Well turns out for us its not going to be so easy. I would be lying if I told you all it did not make me upset or frustrated that here I am married and ready for kids and not able to get pregnant while I see all these teenagers with kids and people who don't want kids pregnant, the fact is it makes me upset and depressed! 


So to begin our road to baby shoes today we had our first apt. with the fertility specialist LET THE TESTS BEGIN! Today I had what seemed like tons of blood drawn, and a ultrasound to look at my ovaries & Fimbriae i believe its called so far they say all good, Now the next items on the list are a xray, and my husbands SA (sperm analysis).


I am looking at the positive and hoping that there will be plenty of baby shoes in the future!
