It's really happening...

I got all the info on the specifics of the money today, and It looks like it will hit our bank around April 20th-25th give or take a few days to let the bank clear the check too...I am soooooooo excited!!!!  We are going to have a chance!!! Finally, a real chance, with the meds we NEED to actually have a shot!!! Eeeekkk!

 I don't even want to think about what we will do if it doesn't work...So, I wont....At least not right now...=)


I went shopping today and got all kinds of stuff to get me jump started on eating better. I have recently found I LOVE almond and cashew butter on celery, and gluten free pretzels. Anyway, I am not going to go full out yet on the diet, going to integrate it in over the next 3 weeks or so...
Then I will go all GF crazy right before we cycle...Hopefully in May/June!

Oh, and my MOM is coming to visit from April 1st- the 10th!! I am so excited!! It has been almost 2 years since we have seen her/her husband, and the kids have been counting down!...As have I...I talk to my mom every single day on the phone...we are like best friends...Even though we had a really rough history in my teens, we have managed to have a very good relationship now, and for that, I am thankful...However, even SHE does not know the extent of our losses and issues...I Just started to tell her about it over the last 6 weeks...I am not sure I am going to tell her about the cycles with Dr. B or not...We will see how it goes...

Regardless, I am stoked she is going to be here, it will bring a pleasant distraction to the waiting time...Not to mention we planned a night at the Lake George indoor water park and hotel, and got a suite! The kids are soooo stinking pumped! I cannot wait to get away and have some fun too! I wouldn't be able to ride to water slides is I was preg, so I am trying to at least be happy for where we are at the moment, and enjoy it, while we prepare to be a sticky baby home for 10+ months in the near future!!!

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 ...

Ok...I may be on to something....

I am scared to even get a little excited.... I want to be elated right now...I do...But all I can think of are the "what if's"....I am going to try and stay as positive as possible, and keep saying over and over..."My body WILL carry this baby to term, I will have a take home baby!" Here is a pic ( below) of the dried test progression
