We made it!

We arrived yesterday evening in Long Island, safe and sound, despite a nasty winter storm that hit Northern/central NY...It was a MESS driving until we got down below Albany...

(This was super clear roads compared to what it was like when we first started off! yikes! I could not even take pics, I was holding on the the door handle for dear life, praying we made it out alive!!)


Then we were smooth sailing...No more issues, other than  the MINOR little issues with the GPS...lol

We hit the Long Island parkway and the sun was shining, NO snow down here!!

Today hubby and I are going out with the kids to enjoy the area, maybe walk around Jones beach a bit, and possibly head to the aquarium...

I am feeling OK...A bit nervous...It has been SOOOO long since I have been thinking about and praying about seeing Braverman...Over a year, Since I started feeling like all of the issues I have faced are immune related...I was right...And we are in the process of seeing what it looks like for us to have another baby in the future, and even figuring out what kind of quality of life I am going to have later on...It seems so daunting, but at the same time, freeing, to have answers, and to be in the hands of someone who is the best of the best!

Anyway, enough of of rambling, I have to finish getting ready! Lots of fun stuff to do today. =)

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...

Lost for words...

By
I have been a funk...Not really much to say that has not already been said before..I feel like such a broken record....But I guess I should start somewhere, and give a little update of some kind... I have posted a few picture quotes that reflects some of how I am feeling, but I cannot seem to articulate MY feelings right now, in a personal way that is comprehensible to others, and doesn't make me look like an ungrateful bitch... I guess I will start off by saying, we had another chemical this last cycle...( + test's at 6/7 dpo- 9 dpo, (I tested early cause I almost threw up while socially smoking a cigg and having a drink with my friend and I didnt temp so I didn't know really where my cycle was for sure) and by 10 dpo tests had faded some, and AF came the NEXT day, even while still taking 800 mgs of progesterone supps (which I did start late at 7dpo, the day I got my first positive but none the less), giving me a whopping 10 day LP...=/ Here is one of my FRER's f...

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...
