Little Bit About Me

My photo
First and foremost, I am a Christian woman: I love Jesus! In this blog you will find stories of trying to conceive with PCOS, MTHFR, Poor egg quality, a unicornuate uteterus, and too many babies in heaven. It is a good thing God is the ultimate healer! Here you will find praise! and you may also find venting (I'm not perfect...) and you will find other stories of my crazy life. All the while through this journey I am holding on to scripture & hoping to one day be a mother here on Earth (waiting on God & His perfect timing...why am I so impatient?) But in the meantime, here you will find me: Jessica, loving wife, hopeful heart of a mother, and faithful friend.

All writing in this blog is unedited and 100% from what I am feeling at the time. By continuing to read it means that you will take my vents with a grain of salt. You will choose to not take offense. And most of all, if you know me in real life you will either choose to stop reading or keep the knowledge of this blog quiet, and privately allow me to know you are reading. I only share this information with close friends. I do not share this with facebook for a purpose: it is meant to be semi-private. Not "public" knowledge in the sense of the majority of those in real life knowing about it. If you can accept all that has been stated, sit back, grab a box of tissues, and be prepared to endure the rocky road of trying to conceive while trying to get out of the shadows of infertility.

Reminiscing

You know what is crazy? Today it is exactly 5 months since I saw my first positive way back in November. That means I would be 6 months today. I know my little baby is in heaven with good company so that gives me great hope and comfort :-) Yet it makes me think, this is our 9th month of trying to conceive. I would say 10, but July was an iffy month of debating after my crazy cycles.

I need to say, I am not explicitly sad today. Just thinking about it. And with my last little guy I would have been 5 months pregnant. My belly would be round from baby and not just fat like it is now. LOL That's one thing I look forward to. The baby belly. Stretch marks from a child growing inside of me instead of from being a tubby woman (hey I'm being honest).

This month begins James and I working out, and eating (at least a little) healthier. James swears I look like I'm losing weight, but I tell him he needs his eyes looked at. hehe, really the scales say anywhere between 201-204 depending on the day. Looking forward to being below 200 at some point. The good thing, when I get pregnant I only have to gain like 15 more lbs. And I plan on sticking to that too. I started skimming through one chapter in Praying Through Your Pregnancy and it talked about being healthy. I'm working on it. Trying to get more water in during the day, eat less sweets, more veggies & fruits, and exercising. I'll get there. I want to be a healthy mommy. But for now, I am going to focus on being a healthy wife. And on that note, bring on the exercise! Here I come Biggest Loser Boot Camp DVD. (I'm still feeling pretty darn good from Yoga yesterday. James thinks it's the exercise that's making me want sleep so much lately. Whatever it is, I think that 9 hours of sleep is WAY too much. Especially for a woman that used to wake up after 6 hours of sleep, pretty much on the dot.)

Hope you all have a blessed day!
♥ Jess
