It's Official We're Blogging!!!!

Our doctor's appointment on Friday prompted us to tell our story via blog. There's so much to tell so many, so Jason and I decided to write our own blog. Some personal, some funny, some sad, it will all be here. Sharing this journey will also be a way for me to deal with the LONG days that come wth trying to conceive. (TTC) There's a lot going on so we will give a brief synopsis of the past almost year.

In Feburary Jason & I got our first beautiful BFP!!!!(Big Fat Positive) So excited we didn't wait long telling friends and family. With our due date in November, we were thrilled to have a new member of the family at Christmas!! Unfortunately God had other plans and on April 10th 2009 we lost our little angel at 9 1/2 weeks. Devastated, we mourned and grieved.

Soon there after we focused our attention on actually "trying to conceive." Thinking we would not have any problems, we went against Dr.'s orders and did NOT wait the two months they tell you to wait before starting to try again. Those of you that know me, know I don't "wait" very well. Immediately in May we started diligently trying. May passed with no luck.

In June I started doing some major research. I started cutting back on coffee, as I read that hindered infertility. June passed with no luck.

July came and went with no luck.

When the August cycle approached I was frustrated, angry, depressed, and exhausted. In the midst of those feelings I would not give up. I purchased a book ironically called "Getting Pregnant." Read it cover to cover and implemented a trillion more things into our TTC routine. Jason and I were both on "vitamin cocktails" as I liked to call them, I bought ovulation predictor kits and Pre-seed, started charting, (more on that later) and much much more. August passed with no luck.

September I just couldn't take it. We were not trying that month. (In the back of mind were the stories everyone tells you about "oh, we stopped trying and got pregnant!!" truly though there was no trying that month) Lo and behold September passed with no luck.

October came and went with no luck. When I got my period in October, I threw my hands up and called the Dr. Went in for an appointment on the 30th of October.
