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.

Dare I say it....?

No bleeding for 24 hours....could it be? Will I jinx it if I do? I know I will probably spot again. But for now I am daring to say it....I could be DONE with this miscarriage process and what could be considered my first AF postpartum.

I get my hcg drawn today. And then *hopefully* my numbers will be so significantly low I might only have to get 1 more blood draw if another is necessary. Might be being too hopeful but meh, it is what it is! :-)

On another note how do you use your opks post miscarriage? Do you start about 10 days after hcg reaches 0, or about 10 after you stop bleeding? In the past I haven't ovulated until at least CD 14, but usually more like 16-18. Clomid cycles 20. I also need to find my bbt thermometer and try figureing out my fertilityfriend.com password/username. It has been FOREVER since I have used the account.

We might be breaking the rules about waiting to have sex tonight so I probably should go buy a pack of condoms and clear our drawer of the expired ones.

I am excited to be back to TTC soon. And I think that is crazy of me to say with the hellish path we had to take to get Matthew. But I look at his face, and it makes all the pain and heartache melt away and remind me that it was so worth him.

Matthew eating mandarin oranges for the first time! He LOVED them! :-)
