Hard day...

I started bleeding today...It makes things feel so final...

I went to church, and just poured out my heart...I told God, that despite the circumstances, I would praise him, and give him my love. It was hard...In the midst of so much grief...I was bought back to each and every moment in the last year...back to each loss. with every one, the pain seems to grow even deeper and deeper...I know God has brought us to this place, and led us to have another baby, so I frustrates me to no end to wonder WHY I have to keep enduring this...WHY  does this keep happening...Why Me? I have said and done all the "right things". I have spoken scriptures and spoken LIFE over myself each day I was pregnant...I forced myself to HOPE and stay positive...fasted, prayed...re evaluated...and yet, I am still here, and cannot come to grips with "giving up" because I KNOW we were called to have another child...

I sat there this morning, trying not to be angry, trying to wrap my heard around this happening again....when a BRAND new baby comes through the doors...talk about adding insult to injury...I could feel my chest tighten like it just might explode...My heart breaking all over again. Then, bitterness... That should be ME...I should be holding my baby not grieving a 8th loss in a year...After all we have been though, why ME!?? why do I keep having to endure this...I know God has a plan, and I do not believe for ONE second that he made this happen, but I just keep asking...why can't I have my miracle yet? what am I doing wrong? I have been pouring my heart and soul believing for a miracle, and here I am again, empty inside and broken...

I know better days are ahead...God help me....

  1. Megan, I am so sorry! I ask myself that same question almost everyday...Why did I have to lose my child and watch women get pregnant carry their baby to term and be fine. Why do we have to suffer. I don't have an answer, and I so wish that I did, but I know that God is good, all the time and all the time God is good.

What you should know if you are considering a tubal reversal

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

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 ...

My game plan...

So I decided to give myself some goals and things to focus on while I recover from this last loss/ectopic. I will have to wait at least 3 months before we can try again, and let the effects of the methotrexate leave my body, and build up my folic acid levels again.  My plan: I am going to go back to my sugar/gluten free/semi paleo diet. I am going to cut out all caffeine (slowly over the next month) And, also starting working out 5 times a week or more. I plan to use a workout series such as Insanity or P90x. My goal is to lose 30- 50 lbs in the next 6 months. I also plan to start taking my old holistic remedies, like maca, red raspberry leaf and red clover, as  a fertility tonic. I plan to add in doing my castor oil packs, 5x a week consecutively, with two days rest. I also decided to really give taking serrapeptase a try. For those who do not know what serrapeptase is, I will give you a little run down on this nifty little enzyme. Discovered in the early 1970’s, th...
