You know, I briefly mentioned a little while ago about my aunt who thinks we have difficulty getting pregnant because I’ve only told her about the first two miscarriages. I know that my miscarriages and everyone else’s miscarriages, too, are such private things. After my first, all of a sudden there were all these people [...]

When the skies of November turn gloomy*

My miscarriage is finally over, and my hCG was down to 20 last Wednesday, so hopefully it will be back to normal at this week’s draw. I see the doctor next week and we’ll schedule my HSG then. I just can’t wait for that to be over. I want to know if it’s the problem [...]
No more waiting

So I’ve been away for quite awhile. Longer than I meant to. Summer is a busy time, of course, but I’ve been trying to think less and less about my fertility problems. Of course, that’s really not possible. Even if I don’t actually write it all down, it’s never far from my thoughts.
Two years ago [...]
Taking a break

So I’ve taken a break from blogging for awhile. No particular reason why, I just decided to stop thinking about getting pregnant and all of that. It’s hard to just keep thinking about my miscarriages all the time, you know? And with summer coming on, we’ve been busier more, getting outside, stuff like that. The [...]
Why do we need to work?

I know I’ve griped about my job before. I don’t like it. I know that nobody likes working, but I’ve spent a lot of time recently thinking about what, exactly, I don’t like about my job. When I first interviewed for my current job, I half-hoped that they wouldn’t offer it to me, but they [...]
So what next?

My levels from my last blood draw are down to 4.5. Now I have a follow-up appointment scheduled, but I’m not entirely sure what to expect at it. I asked the receptionist, but she wasn’t clear. I hope it’s not just a rushed physical exam, because I really want to talk about [...]
Enough already!

So my blood draw from last Friday shows that my levels have dropped to 12.5. For crying out loud, isn’t that close enough? I’ve got to go on Friday again, and this better be the last time. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned before but I have a completely irrational fear of [...]
What should have been

Last night, G. and I went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. A woman was there eating with her little girl, who was probably about 2. G. commented on how cute she was and I agreed, and then for some reason that just made me realize that if I hadn’t had my first [...]
Baby update and a rant

My first ultrasound has been changed to next Monday. I CAN’T WAIT!! I probably won’t sleep at all Sunday night, thinking about it. Yeah, right. I’m so tired all the time now, I doubt that will be a problem. I am just crossing my fingers that we see that little flickering heartbeat.
So we’ve decided to [...]
Do what I say, not what I do

It is so easy to tell other people what they should do than it is to do it yourself. God, do I know this. G has been having issues with his boss and it’s so easy to tell him, “What you need to do is sit down with your boss and say…” but I know [...]
