Received a miracle today

Well, my progesterone last month was only a 1.4 out of a magical number of 12. So, my doc decided to try different days of my cycle for the meds, and yesterday I went in for day 21 blood work. Honestly, I was hoping for a 4 just so I could see some type of numerical progress. Well, instead, I got more than I bargained for!

My nurse called around noon today and told me that my level this month was a 12.0 - I know, it's crazy! It's literally a miracle straight from the hands of God! So, I will wait until either I start or on day 35, July 30, when I'll take a test. I'm just soooo thrilled that my body worked. I hope if I'm not preggers, which I'm not expecting to be, that my body continues to work at this pace. Kim was super excited, so we enjoyed dinner out to celebrate!!!!

My mom told me tonight she just feels things are going in the right direction and that it would happen soon... regardless, my God gave me a miracle today. And for that, I'm grateful!

Jeremiah 29:11 "'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'"

Positive Thoughts aren't easy, but necessary

Day 21 rolled around, and no ovulation! However, I did start so I began new meds on day three. Doc didn't want to increase the hormone b/c he's trying to see if he can detect if my system is working on different days than the norm. So, instead of taking the drug days 5-9, I'm taking it 3-7. Beginning tomorrow, I'll do the ovulation test on my own and get my blood drawn on Day 21, July 16, for the official word.

Today, I learned two co-workers are preggers... one via e-mail and the other in person. It was hard, but I honestly wasn't as bummed today like normal. I DO believe God is still in control, and I'm confident it will happen. Doesn't make one day easier than the other, but I do know God's on my side, and Kim's on the other... we'll get through this and be able to tell everyone just how amazing God is! Positive thoughts aren't always the easiest on days like today, but it's necessary and I can't doubt His master plan... wish he would just give me some insight! :)

At the beginning...

Well, I decided to call my doc to let him know my body has worked three months consecutively... while not on a schedule, it's still working. He decided to put me on a very low dose of hormone to trigger ovulation this month on time. So, I go in Friday to get blood drawn so they can test my progesterone and know if I ovulated; I will most likely know on the following Monday.

Just going to take this in strides... not sure what our next steps will be if they're needed.

I've lost a total off 22 now, so I'm hoping this will continue to help!

Perplexed

Well, May 25 rolls around and my body decided to work again. I'm obviously happy it's 'doing its thing' and just wondering if it'll get into any pattern. So on May 27 I called the doctor to inform him of my cycle and see if he wants to wait a bit b/f starting Chlomid... also, I'm trying to be proactive. He mentioned me being able to start this a while back, but I'm not sure at what 'time' he was okay iwth trying infertility again, starting with the very basic Chlomid.

Oh, twenty pounds down as of yesterday! I'm super excited... off to exercise.

Negatory!

As of today, day 33, nothing is going on, not pregnant and a little bummed. I'm much better now after my evening 'blow off the steam' walk. I had a few tears today, but my boss is amazing and just let me cry for a few minutes until I gained my composure. Well, I'll just keep trucking along and trying my best to lose weight and have faith God has a better timing than I do.

One of those days...

Okay, so it's just got to be 'one of those days.' I am anxiously awaiting whether I start or can test to see if I'm preggers Saturday, on our fifth wedding anniversary, and I am bombarded with babies today.

My soap - yes I still watch soaps -featured a baby christening today and a miscarriage... then I watch TV tonight and 'notice' baby commercials, I RSVP for a baby shower I'll attend this Saturday and I log onto eBay to look for a new cellphone cover, and the main page says... "Are you ready or not,"featuring baby items.

So, while I'm not angry or mad... just wanted to share that it's in my face today. I'm trying to keep the happy thoughts about this weekend. I'm hoping my body either works again or I'm preggers... more to come.

Way to end date night

Well, it's only been about 18 days since my last post. All I want to say is Kim and I had a good dinner and movie date night, and now my body decided to work yet again... so stinks a little and yet I'm soooooo excited to see more progress. I'm hoping my body is trying to figure out what's going on. 12 pounds down... and many smiles tonight!
