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.

MRI and Wonders

Ok so my phone call to do list? Massive fail. I need to call DHS tomorrow, along with BCBS on why HSG wasn't covered. AND I have my u/s tomorrow.

I am 5 or 6 dpo today. Yesterday 4 or 5.

MRI had the "Is there any chance you are pregnant" type of question. Um...No. wait. Maybe? I wouldn't know yet, they wouldn't either. Do I click No? Or be honest and say yes I could be.

You must know me by now. I had to go and tell the truth. I am 4dpo I told them, fully knowing a beta and a pee test are not going to show ANYTHING yet.

They wanted me to wait to do MRI so I could take a beta hcg test. I told them there had to be a waiver. There wasn't. The only one was for known pregnancies. I fought for me to be able to do the MRI. Said I wanted it done. I have been ttc for over a year and a half, I have lost 4 babies, and I wanted it done by the end of the year for insurance purposes. PLUS I had taken my one vallium, which you aren't supposed to take prolonged use with pregnancy. It is a class D drug, avoid completely in pregnancy.

So if I am pregnant it will have to be a God thing in the first place, especially if healthy and viable. They tried telling me, "Well there is a chance the MRI could affect your pregnancy if you were and cause you to miscarry again." Reports I have read show results are inconclusive but if you are on prenatals and eat a decent diet the baby shouldn't be affected.

So there. I went ahead with it. And have a cd with the images. Once I know what I am for sure looking at I will post a few pictures of my insides! Haha it is SO stinking cool.

I was driving James buggy looking at them. At first I was like...seriously 11 photos? And after a half hour to an hour of looking and googling other images and about to give up, I decided to click and drag. And it shows all the layers of images within each 11 photos. It is SO stinking cool.

I published this earlier without the "wonder" part. I have noticed a few days after O dizzy spells where I have had to hold onto things to keep from falling (or at least feeling like I was going to fall...). I told myself I wouldn't over analyze this.

Then the normal Jessica thing happens...I think about when I was on progesterone and all the dizzy feelings I had. Then I notice I am still wetter than normal down south. THEN I notice my nails are getting longer. One thing clicked tonight, I ovulated good this month. Between the bountiful ewcm for 3 days, and the other symptoms...no dount in my mind. Maybe I should get a progesterone test done. Ha! I don't want the extra bill... *sigh*

I have had the "I am pregnant this month!" Feeling before but if I am honest the wave of doubt in my gut always hits. This month I keep saying there is NO way I am pregnant, and that same little voice that makes me question...asks me "are you sure?"

So I wonder. As I wait. If so, or regardless of when it does happen, please pray for it to not interfere with rn schooling.

Today is my u/s and I am hoping to get a CD of that as well. I might even ask for images of the HSG while I am at it. Then I can show you all the different views of my inner lady parts haha.

Last night was hellish at work. It made me want to cry and pull my hair out.
