An Open Letter to My Body

After peeing on a stick to see if we are ovulating for the past ten days and still not seeing the result I want, I am just over it today. It will be fine and all work out- I do know this, but right now I just want to vent about how dumb my body is. It's like you have one job........ 

Instead of typing out my rant, I decided to vlog as the cool kids call it. Again, I know things will all work out and I have a lot to be grateful for, but sometimes you just need to call the baby ugly (I know, bad joke).

We are Fighters

I didn't expect to have an update this soon, but what I need to realize is I need to stop having any expectations.  I have no clue which obstacles will continue, how high or low the hills will be, and there is not a single thing I can do about it.  The reason I say this is because I didn't think my appointment on Monday to have the ultrasound would be a big deal.  My husband, Tim, insisted my mom come with me since he had to work and I asked her even though I saw no point.  This wasn't supposed to be a big appointment and I already knew what the situation was.  I knew I had a heart-shaped uterus so what else was there to worry about?  Wrong again. As I'm sitting on the table with the nurse examining my lady business, I asked her what she saw.  Of course she played it safe and told me my doctor would go over everything with me.  She was nice about it, but it still annoyed me.  Just tell me already, no your not a doctor but you also know wh...

A Heart Shaped Uterus for a Very Loved Future Baby

I thought it fitting to have my first real fertility appointment with my new doctor during the week of my birthday.  It made sense with beginning a new year of life and I feel good about my doctor.  She was able to reassure me that it's okay and we can still get pregnant.  I think it's important to hear any positivity in these situations and any doctor who can provide that no matter the circumstance is a hero in my book. She not only reassured me with the fact that we did get pregnant, but also that she had her son at the age of 35, so this whole clock dwindling concept is silly.  I left that appointment with directions to get an HSG done which basically determines if your fallopian tubes flow properly and addresses my "upside down-heart-shaped uterus."  There is a much fancier term for it (bicornuate uterus), but I prefer my catchy phrase. The test was today and for those of you who have not experienced it, they tell you it feels like your worst period cram...

Your Fertile Window is Active

As I'm driving home from work today, I randomly think about my fertility app on my phone. I won't tell you that I actually updated my calendar while driving....but back to my point.  So I updated where my lovely lady business is in regards to ovulating and "aunt flow." Then this beautiful message pops up, your fertility window is open .  This may seem silly, but that phrase became a symbol of hope and new beginnings for me.  For you to understand why, I think some updates are in order. After the miscarriage and Christmas season, I made a decision to leave my job.  Something just clicked and I had to make a change.  I am not saying the job itself is what caused the miscarriage, but I do believe the lifestyle I was living did.  My job was almost 24-7 and I hadn't found a way to turn it off when I was home.  None of that was conducive to having a child.  So I searched for jobs I knew would still provide the mental challenge I yearned for, similar i...
