Testing day.....

Well today was the day,but no need to test Aunt Flow came to visit me :(. After pulling myself together I had to tell Greg the bad news, he just held my hand and said it is ok. At first I felt like a failure but after a pep talk from my Aunt I have a new attitude..... I am not going to give up on my baby shoes dream! I pulled it together and called the dr. I have a apt for Thursday morning for yet another ultrasound they told me I could do another round of clomid or switch to stronger meds so I chose to bump it up and start clomid and injectables with iui. Praying this works!

3 days!

3 days till testing, Trying to stay positive!

Countdown!

8 Days till I can test!

Waiting....not so patiently

And it begins.....2 WEEK WAITING PERIOD! I am trying to keep busy but I can't get busy enough, Charity dinner tonight to benefit the spca and busy weekend but come one 2 WEEKS! I am trying to stay positive I really am but I have had 2 breakdowns its not good for me I know but its something my emotions and hormones are not helping me with!


Please Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers! Pray that this round works and we are blessed with our baby shoes! I will keep you all posted but I will probably not post the results right away Greg and I will celebrate as a couple or mourn as a couple I am hoping and praying its the celebrating!


2Weeks to go well 13 DAYS!

Injection done!

Well I am a big fat Chicken I thought I could do it on my own but sitting there holding the needle to my belly was not going to happen so my wonderful husband did it for me and it was not as bad as i thought it would be! Injection done on to the next step!

Friday the 13th is our lucky day!

Had my dr. apt today to check and see if the Clomid worked..........Well after being on pins and needles all day my ultrasound showed 1 mature follicle (egg) and 1 possible  so the total possibility of 2! I will take my injection sunday at 9:00pm and then timed intercourse. We have a pregnancy test on the 31st of May! We are so excited and following directions and precautions to the fullest! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers that we get a BIG FAT POSITIVE!!

WE ARE ONE STEP CLOSER TO OUR BABY SHOES!

Package of meds came today!

Last night was my last night of Clomid all 5 days went well for me. I took my last pill and headed to bed last night and I could not sleep at all I laid awake with tons of things running though my head like.... I really hope this works...What if it doesnt work...if it does work I will be a mommy....and so much more! I finally got to sleep about 1:30ish this am to be woken up at 3:30am to my house at like 80 degrees I thought I was just having a hot flash which is a side effect of the meds but nope Greg accidently turned on the heater and the house turned into a friggin oven! After I put a cold wash cloth on my neck I was able to go back to bed only to have my alarm go off at 6:00am needless to say today I am a bit tired, I could not even sneak in a nap because I had to wait for the Fed ex man to come and deliver my injection. The Fed Ex man showed up at about 2:30 with a huge box I was a bit confused....I am only getting one injection, I signed for the box and opened the box to find another box in that box was a biohazard box and alcohol wipes and a ice chest in the ice chest was the the box with the injection! It's here and now time to wait for the Dr. on friday.......I hope I can get some sleep between now and then. 

Day off = date for hubby and I

*Fast Five spoiler alert I do give something away*

Today was a rare occasion Greg had the day off and I did as well YAY so we decided to go to the movies and see fast five. I picked this movie for a bunch of different reasons: 1- No one will be talking about babies 2-no one will be pregnant 3- its a movie full of testosterone & hot men! Well I was wrong my emotions are jacked right now anyways and all the sudden what there is right there on the big screen: 1- ladies talking about babies 2- a pregnant woman I started to cry I kept it to myself as to not ruin the movie for Greg but to be honest I was about to walk out with taking the clomid I am very emotional and irritable! I found myself angry that here is this girl pregnant jumping off buildings, running from bullets and all that I was thinking how could anyone put a baby in danger! I knowi its just a movie but I could not help feel this way irrational maybe but it was what I was feeling! After I calmed myself down and watched the rest of the movie it ended up being my favorite fast in the furious movie and can't wait for number 6! 

 

Day 2 of Clomid!

Well last nights dose of clomid went well, I did not get sick yay! But I was nervous about getting sick so I drank way to much water before bed and was up going to the bathroom all night! Today I have had hot flashes and been a bit dizzy but other than that all is good next dose tonight! Please pray this works and we get one if not two sets of baby shoes!


Lots of Love, Carissa

tomorrow is the day!

Well tomorrow is the day 5/5/11, Tomorrow I start Clomid. Getting excited!

Back from the dr.

So I had another ultrasound this morning showed no cysts so now I can start Clomid which I will start on Thurs. I will take that for 5 days then go back to the dr. on the 13th, on the 13th they will do yet another ultrasound to check and see if I have any mature follicles if i do then we know the Clomid did its job and then I will come home and give myself and injection (kinda scared about that one) after that we have 36 hour window that I will 99.9% ovulate so we all know what that means. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers that I have more than one Follicle that is mature 2 would be great. I will keep you all posted with how I am doing on the Clomid I have heard most women get the side effects but I am not going to complain a little bit of my own personal summer for some baby shoes would be awesome hahah!



Love.
Carissa
