Good Day

Today was good, spent some time at the police department following a robbery last week at our family business, the kids who broke in have been caught. Thank goodness. I got a pos OPK again, so let the 2ww continue... This was the second day it was pos. I was reading other infertility blogs this morning and found lots of inspirational quotes that helped the day go well. It's that time in my cycle where I think "this might be the month", so we'll see how that goes. But it makes getting through everyday so much easier. Because one month I hope it will be our month, this one I feel good, hoping the clomid works. Taking mucinex twice a day and using preseed, fingers crossed!

"Be kinder than necessary. Everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
You never know when a moment and a few sincere words can have an impact on
a life."

A First Blog

I'm new to the world of blogging, but as an infertile, I am tired of finding unhelpful blogs and thought it was time to start my own. There are plenty out there, but sometimes it's hard to find any that fit your same situation. My journey began last January with what I thought would be a very easy path to getting pregnant. Having been pregnant three years previously, and miscarrying at three months, I thought it would happen again just as easily. Boy was I wrong. Fifteen months and sixteen cycles later, still nothing. We had one very early miscarriage last July, Beta HCG levels at 20, but never got any higher, but at the time it gave me some hope. That hope is slowly dwindling with each month that passes. I have stage 2 endometriosis and poor ovulations, and just started Clomid last month. I have now completed the second round and am in the 2WW. Fingers crossed.
