I'm remaining focused on other things in my life right now, which is helping me cope with my infertility blues. I've been working out like a maniac and seeing a slight loss (5.5 lbs. to date). This, not only is helping me physically, but it's helping me emotionally. Keeping focused on this really helping. While it's not the major loss I'd like to see, I'm confident it'll get kick-started soon.
Another distraction this past week was a purchase of a professional, SLR digital camera and all the zooms, filters, etc. to accompany. I'm really excited to have a nice camera to take the fam's photos and others for fun. I'd like to just play around with it and see what I can do. Since we have a lot of friends with adorable kids and a backyard full of flowers, I'm thinking I'll have plenty of practice shooting this spring.

"I Believe in Miracles"
One month later, nothings happening on our end - oh, except for the fact three friends just informed me within about two weeks they are preggers... seriously! I'm sure I'm just noticing this b/c of the fact I'm not.
Went to my OB-GYN this week for my annual check-up, and he informed me that my infertility specialist sent him my file and recommendation, which consisted of either two rounds and artificial insemination (would total about $2,200 out of pocket) or IVF, which I don't even want to think about the cost... most likely $20-30,000. I let this bother me for, oh, about 10 minutes. The thought was depressing and hopeless. Then, I realized I cannot focus on this, b/c it's rules out the fact God can do anything. So, I'm continuing to believe in miracles since God hasn't closed any doors for us.
Just trying to focus on other things like my weight issue. So far, so good. I've lots four pounds in two weeks and I'm hoping this trend continues.
So, on this Valentine's Day, I may not have a baby to love, but I have a fabulous husband, family and friends who I love and they love me so much, are praying for us. For this I am grateful.
