Other Thoughts on TTC

I have been surfing the net for reasons of multiple early miscarriages. I know I have multiple factors but it has to be something else I could do.

I have decided 1) January I will switch to l-methylfolate instead of regular folic acid and pray that helps. 2) I have a huge stash of Lovenox. I might as well use it. So this cycle or next I am going to start the shots 4dpo until BFP or AF. 3) If I have another loss with weight loss Plus all of the above, I am going to ask for my NK cells to be checked and if high I will ask for prednisone.

I also read an article about naturally lowering body's inflammation response and might try some of their ideas.

My hope for our family is to have another baby or be quite pregnant by the time Matthew is 2. And be signed up for foster care classes by the time he is 4. I still would love to also do an international adoption as well.

Big hopes.

30 Day Cycle!

What's that I said? I had a 30 day Cycle! Back to normal!!!! :-) We will see how next cycle goes. But my thought and hopes are to lose 20lbs and get pregnant with another healthy baby.

I weighed myself and disappointingly it read 207.8 meaning I need to lose 15 to be back to the weight I was when I found out I was pregnant with Matthew.

I am HOPING weight los will do the trick and prove to be my infertility. I am starting to really get the itch for exercise it will give me the endorphines to make it through the winter and hopefully valentines we will have good news coming our way. I exercised 4 months before we got pregnant with Matthew so hoping for the same this time around!

Giddy. Hopeful. Excited. Makes up for the shifty birthday and fiasco with financial aide. Plus the 91% on exam isn't bad news either.

Holy Ovulation Batman!!

Since Monday I have been feeling something going on w/uterus/ovary area. Almost to the point that I wondered if I was going to start my period extra early. I was due for O this week. And by the cramps and FOUR days of ewcm thus far, along with an almost positive OPK last time I tested (which was last one) I would say I O'd.

Mixed with my extreme sense of smell/nausea from the smell of poo. And let me tell you I have the gut of steal, I can clean up puke without gagging, I can do snot without too much of a problem (my only thing I had an issue with was blood luegies when I was pregnant). So the fact that the poo almost had me gagging, and left me feeling so nauseated I skipped lunch is quite impressive.

And by impressive think loose poop with corn in it. I didn't even know that could happen! My sister and I cried laughing when I told her about it. Dis-friggen-scusting.

So if I didn't know better I would think...take a hpt! But I am really just hoping it is good ovulation from starting back up my metformin.  Who knows. Regardless....I almost lost my cookies at work. As I am sure some of you did by the descriptions in my post, sorry.

(P.S. I would be excited to find out we were pregnant, but not holding my breath....)

(P.S.S. at clinical I am learning there are WAY more stupid pregnant women than at first anticipated. Stupid enough to not follow controlled diabetes...creating a 10lb+ baby and not understanding why you cannot hold it when it's o2 had desatted to low 60% AND blood glucose fell to low 30s before an IV dextrose got started. OR how about babies with drawling because mom's did drugs while pregnant.... enough said. One day I want to adopt one of those poor babies going through withdrawal because they deserve so much more.)
