Damn, it's been awhile

Wow, I had writers block for about a month....that was weird. Every time I sat down to blog I couldn't come up with anything worth writing about. I have definitely had an event filled hiatus, so you would think I could have come up with something! I know a few people who follow my blog (thanks mom and Jill...heehee) and I am sorry to them for taking away some of their daily reading...other than that, I don't know if anyone really reads my posts...so, it was easy to slack off. On that note...thank you to the anonymous writer who asked about my fertility progress!



Fertility shots will begin again on Friday...it's been 2 months since the failed IVF/IUI attempt and I didn't do ANYTHING I said I was going to do in that time. No acupuncture, no exercise, no diet...I suck!!! I think it was a relief to not have treatments on my mind so I just chilled out and enjoyed myself...whoops. This round of meds will be different in hopes of them actually working this time...in hopes of having more than 1 mature egg. The weird thing about all the timing is that 6 years ago on Halloween was when I was first disappointed with no pregnancy. I remember I thought for sure the first time we tried I would get pregnant, I was so excited about the holidays and possibly being a mom and then I started my period on Halloween!!! I cried.....if only I had known not to waste those tears, there would be many more to come. So, it looks like the egg retrieval will be a week before Halloween...weird.



Since I am all about pictures, I will post a few (alot) highlighting my life since the last post.

  2. I'm glad to see you're back! I check your blog every.single.day - so you definitely have some readers.

    I hope this cycle is a huge change for you. And don't think of it as going into the cycle not having done what you'd planned on in preparation. Think of it as going in rested and relaxed. ;)

  3. Finally!! I was getting ready to call in the missing bloggers report because it had been so long. So glad your bloggers block has passed and can't wait to view more updates. Love the pics. It looks like you had lots of fun in the interim.

    I'm sending lots of positive thoughts and prayers your direction.

    Hugs,
    Laura
