Believing in the possibilities.

Back to the RE tomorrow. My temperature dipped a little lower than I would have liked this morning.. but I will head back to the RE tomorrow.. We had 'Relationship' (lol) last night and will again tonight.... Not sure if the temperature lowering is a bad sign... but here it is.... I'm going to believe/have hope!!

*All I can do it wait to see what the ultrasound shows tomorrow and go from there... it's quite stressful so I am going to try and just relax, relax, relax... as much as it is on my mind.. relax, relax, relax.... more tomorrow.

Hey Hometown Girl....

I just got your comment...I tried to read back a little to see what you were doing and Im assuming its an IUI?

Anyway prometrium helps your body build up progesterone if you have low levels of it. I did so what you do is you take it so if you get pregnant you have enough progesterone to support the pregnancy and then based on your prog results they will either have you continue or stop...the corpus letum (or however you spell it) is what produces it but sometimes not enough...once the placenta is large enough it takes over and you wont neen the prometrium anymore...

I will say I have done the wax supposetories, the prometrium supposetories and the Progesterone in oil shots and I would take the prometrium anyday!!!

I am going to continue to follow you - best of luck!

Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. I'm pretty new at all this. It's a little stressful, all these terms, drugs, etc... not really anyone who 'gets' it.

No IUI yet --we're just trying medications this month, u/s, prometrium, had the HcG shot, etc... We'll try natural for at least 2 months then try IUI.

again, thanks for the comment, so much appreciated!! :)

Congrats on your pregnancy!!!

Cosmic Love

Loving this newer artist (newer to the U.S.) Florence & the Machine. I can't help but get an overwhelming feeling that no matter how bad things are or could get in the future maybe....just maybe everything is going to be alright. I believe this song is trying to hit the listener's spiritual side. my interpretation, others will be different.

my happy ending ladies.

I find myself looking at this journey today and wanting to share with you what happened to me. I was going to edit the hell out of this and delete this entire thing and made a conscious decision not to do so.. why is that? Well, i know what I went through and the amount of online research I did when given many "terms" used in this blog. The "cd" and "ttc" and "BBT" and "clomid" (likely the most evil drug known to man which my body battled and fought for months), "femara" (also evil, used for cancer and ferility ladies), "prometrium" (if u somehow randomly found this in your journey, please send me a message and I'll tell u the hell prometriun is, but that the drug works) "glucophage" (another evil drug, see a trend, also used for diabetics) "IUI", "endometriosis" "PCOS" and "pain" "lonely" "sad". It's 2017. So my world...

It's been 8 weeks and a day...

Time.... I'd never imagined it would end like this. In time, something new will grow. How long will it take to feel it? I don't know how to be something that will grow right now. I hope to see the sunshine, lay down on the ground, stare up at the sky and think about what is next. I didn't think I'd live like this..... Time... growth. My days used to revolve around you... Who had a sick need to give... and take it ALL away. I look back with regret.. Why didn't I see this?? I see it all now. Every little piece. i still remember the look on your face when I woke you... i can still feel your energy.. I don't know how to be something that you'll miss.. It's your smile and love I will forever remember... I hope I am something you will miss.. I hope I made an impact on your beautiful life. I will remember the moments...

My home is where my story begins.....
