So as I sit here and write this post, I thought to myself “this is my life”….and you know what? I’m happy with this life. I think sometimes we get so caught up in what’s not going right in our lives that we can forget all that IS going right. I am truly blessed with … [Read more…]
Is everyone pregnant? I think so…or maybe it seems that way when you’re trying to become pregnant. I’m naturally drawn to pregnant people and babies so the good thing is that it doesn’t make me jealous to see a bunch of pregnant people but it sure does seem like everyone is pregnant. The gift of … [Read more…]
My husband finally got his ultrasound BUT…I had to literally chase the doctor around for the results! This has been so frustrating for both of us! Once the ultrasound was done, the tech told us that the results would go to the doctor the same day and we should be able to receive the results … [Read more…]
I’ll admit that I’ve never been one of the most patient people on this earth but this process has been excruciating for me! Everything has been about waiting. I wait to ovulate and then I wait to see if I’m pregnant. I wait on my period to come on and the cycle starts again…waiting to … [Read more…]
We’re now in month 6 of trying to conceive. We’re still not pregnant…as far as the medical professionals are concerned, this is “normal” and one should be “trying to conceive for at least a year before seeking professional help” . I know some people would even say “oh, that’s no time” but it feels like … [Read more…]
Well…I thought that I would be visiting this page and writing to tell you how awesome the results were for my husbands second semen analysis was but instead, I’m doing the complete opposite. We had the second semen analysis done and the results were far worse than the first analysis. I realize that I didn’t … [Read more…]
Well, my husbands semen analysis wasn’t great at all. He has a low sperm count BUT, they said that it’s common for that to happen in the first analysis and they would like to do another analysis just to make sure the results were accurate. They also started talking to us about the reality of … [Read more…]
Well, after a day of me harassing the RE’s office, I received my results from the fertility tests today. All of my tests came back normal and now we’re just waiting on my husband’s semen analysis to come back. I’m pretty sure his will be normal since he doesn’t fit the profile (overweight, drinker, smoker, … [Read more…]
OH EM GEEEEE!! I forgot to mention in my last post that I was also scheduled to have the HSG procedure done within a few days. For those of you who may not know what that procedure is, a hysterosalpinogram or HSG procedure is when a series of x-rays are taken of your Fallopian tubes and uterus … [Read more…]
Wow oh wow! Who knew that I would have to take all of these tests just to find out if I’m having fertility issues. I mean, I read about the different tests but what I didn’t realize was that they all have to take place during the different stages in my cycle. Thank God I … [Read more…]
