What if....

So...I got crosshairs today...


We had a unprotected BD the day before O...(as mentioned in previous post)..so of course, I started thinking "what if"...What if, after all this madness and meds, and pain...It just happens....Then, I remembered....I ovulated on the exact same day (aug 19th) a year ago, and got preg with our may 12th, 2013' ectopic angel....I am not sure why I even remembered that, as I have tried to block out "should have been EDD's" to save myself from some of the pain and constant triggers that come with each passing should have been EDD....But never the less...... I went to check my charts...Sure enough, same day- etc...

 Call me crazy, but I still have a small spark of hope for a sticky bean...seems/feels soooooo stupid with our horrible immune DX etc, and with how many losses we have had, even with the immune meds and the many ectopics...Our chances are so low.. I mean, really....BUT...I just can't seem to shake the hope...I hate it...I wish I could just let go...and give up....and move on...BUT hope...it always whispers "try one more time"...UGH!! 

And of course, to add insult to injury, I am stalking the may 2014 birth board on BBC, wishing I could be apart….Hoping that by some strange chance, we get a supernatural miracle…..But what if it is another loss, or worse an ectopic...I just dunno anymore...I have tried so hard to move on...But Hope still lingers....

    I don't think you're crazy at all. We all want this so badly, it's almost nice to have that little glimmer of hope sometimes :) I am praying for you, I really hope that you get your miracle this month!

What you should know if you are considering a tubal reversal

By
Its been 8 years. 8 years since we took a trip to NC to see DR. Montieth in Chapel Hill. I remember being so excited. I had this picture in my head of how it was going to go during, and after it all. For those of you who don't know, I had my tubes tied in 2009, after the birth of my 3rd, directly following a traumatic still birth. It was a decision made out of fear and trauma, not an informed decision. I ended up having adverse health issues (PTLS) after, and was desperate to find a solution. I stumbled upon a private chat room with others also struggling. Several had gone for a reversal, and seemed to feel so MUCH better after. I had already seen my doctor umpteen times, and they offered no solutions, and insinuated it was "in my head".... I saw all of these ladies posting the day OF surgery saying that they felt relief! I was like, "Yes, this is it!!"... So we saved the 6 Grand, and went and did the reversal. I was PUMPED. I started a blog, YouTube video and F...

Some statistics on Miscarriage

By
Miscarriage Statistics Overall miscarriage risk is 17-22%; risk after gestational sac is visible is 12-15% Miscarriage is one of the most frequent problems in human pregnancy. The most widely accepted definition is that proposed by the World Health Organization in 1977. The incidence among clinical pregnancies  (a pregnancy that is confirmed by both high levels of hCG and ultrasound confirmation of a gestational sac)  is about 12-15%, but including early pregnancy losses it is 17-22%. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11950476 After heartbeat is detected, risk of miscarriage is 9.4% at 6wks; 4.2% at 7wks; 1.5% at 8wks; 0.5% at 9wks To estimate the risk of miscarriage among asymptomatic women after a prenatal visit between 6 and 11 weeks of gestation where proof of fetal viability of a singleton was obtained by office ultrasonography at the same visit. METHODS: Those recruited were 697 asymptomatic women who attended their first antenatal ...

Trust & New Pajamas

By
So, a blog comment I got the other day from wonderful woman, and awesome supporter of mine, caused me to pause a bit, and kind of evaluate some things about my faith and relationship with God. Which I truly appreciate, because she was kind and not judgy in her words...And I felt God gently nudge my heart each time I read the comment over... I felt my face start to burn with emotion, as tears welled up in my eyes...And I finally admitted to myself... I do NOT trust God...At least not fully, like I once did... But I desperately WANT to be at that point again....Trusting fully...And filled with peace... I walked into this journey,  to try for one more, 100% SURE , God was calling us/giving us the desire  to have another baby...I/we were, 100% certain we would walk away with a baby in our arms...As a matter of fact, I would have bet my LIFE on it. Now, 3 years later, I am broken, weary, and so utterly soul shattered, that I simply cannot "look" God in the eyes...H...
