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.

CAUTION

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.

Waiting...

Waiting for things to happen is something I am not always gracious with.

James isn't so good with when finances are tight/behind. And because I pay the bills he sometimes takes the crankiness out on me. Well...with vacation we were going to be okay. Then came along sickness. Which made this weeks pay check equal 200 buckeroos. 80 of which goes directly to car payment. So 120 combined with my check (less than 600 this week...they messed up and left off my vacation pay!)...needs to pay about 950 in bills. Ha. Impossible. Not happening. So I get to pay a partial house payment, and a few smaller bills, so we can have gas money and food (which we are currently lacking on). Oh and Jack Jack needs to go to the vet. His ears are infected, he has bitten patches of hair off, and has a patch of dry skin under his nose from licking so much...I am tired of his issues too. Even our dog is challenged, stupid allergies.
Things will be okay. But it definitely stresses James out. I roll with the punches...with finances.

Rolls switch with trying to conceive. James rolls with the punches, moodiness (sometimes he does give it right back though), the opks sitting on the bathroom sink.

Me? I stress. I hate that we have to spend $ on opks, pregnancy tests, progesterone level testing, pre-seed, excessive vitamins, and other ttc things. Why do I hate it? Because I don't have my rainbow yet. We have easily spent over a thousand dollars on all things ttc over the last year.

But last night I took a small step, and prayed for us. I cried just because it is hard. Sometimes it feels too stinking hard. I am hoping joy is around the corner. That sadness and waiting will not continue for much longer.

I am 5dpo. I have had some cramping. My bbs hurt. But I ignore these things for most of the day...I am done symptom watching. I can't do it any longer. It makes me crazy. I am sure I will fall pray to it later on in this cycle, but for now? We have done all we can do. And the rest...well it's in His hands.

Also, 9 days until the end of September. 9 days until KCC will be receiving another phone call from me about our letters if we haven't received them yet. I am getting annoyed. And I try not to get excited when I check the mail, but a little bit of me feels defeated when I don't have it yet.

9 days until the end of September. 9 days until AF will be a day away. 9 days until surely I should have either 1 or 2 pink lines staring back at me. Either way...on that day. I will post. Hopefully with good news 2 for 2.
