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.

Clomid Story

Friday I called the ob and left a message for the phone nurse to return my call. When she didn't I didn't think about it. (I forgot it was FRIDAY).

Saturday morning (thinking it is Friday ugh) I realize it is pointless to go pick up groceries when my prescription isn't in yet. So I go home, and my husband points out that I can't call the normal ob office.

I freak out. What are we going to do? Do vitex this cycle? Or just call and see if on call doctor will fill my script? After much debate (and procrastination because I was on the last few chapters of Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins...SUPER good you should read it, but make sure to start with Hunger Games. And savor it. Because I am sad I read all three in three days, and now and still thinking about the book...) I call the on call doctor.

She points out that ovulation is showed by progesterone being over 15, and really good is over 20. Being that I was a 17 there is room for improvement. So she asks me what I think about moving up to 100 mg instead of repeating the 50 mg dose. I tell her I have no preference. So she calls it in, and now ladies and gentlemen I am on 100 mg of Clomid for my CD 3-7.

PLEASE stay away horrid symptoms. I can deal with headaches and hotflashes. Keep away moodiness. And sore ta tas. Especially for vacation.

Questions that run through my head are...will my symptoms be worse? (I already have a headache) Will I ovulate well, maybe too well? Will I have twins as a result? What if I don't get pregnant? What ifs...enough to drive me crazy...

At work, and my head hurts. I am tired. I am a little irritated with some of the residents, okay one in particular...ugh. Did I mention I am ready to go home? Or that James decided we should go to church in the morning (they should be announcing soon my step down from nursery...).
