I read an interesting status and comments on Facebook. A female who I went to high school with posted this on her Facebook status: “So I officially signed my papers to get my tubes tide… “ For a second I thought it was a joke. You are 28 years old you were truly blessed to have healthy babies, why would you want to give that up? To make things worse the comments that is written by my other classmates. “OMG I want mine as well but my husband will be upset”. People are so ungrateful. They don’t understand for some it is very Continue reading

Feeling…
I have this feeling, which I can’t describe but I know what it is. A feeling, which I had prior to us beginning both of our IVF cycles. Having sometime off from all the medicine and doctors visits I was relaxed again except today. Today I am started to get back into that old feeling but not in a good way in a mix feeling kind of way. I think this happened because of the conversation I had with my husband yesterday.
I never mentioned it before but when we initially started our IVF journey by purchasing a one-year Continue reading
Just a Quick Update
Today is Tuesday October 21, 14. I am waiting on my progesterone result and I have an appointment next week with my RE to review our next step.
So far, I am on vitamins, which I mentioned before baby aspirin (81mg), B12, prenatal and folic acid. I take them every morning because of Methylenetetrahydrofolate aka mthfr.
This weekend change my perspective.
Sorry that I haven’t posted I took a mini vacation with my girlfriends to take my mind off from all the treatments.
This trip was really good for me I saw things that I haven’t seen before meaning the way people acted in different situations.
It was 4 young women; each one is facing a different situation in their lives. Here is a little breakdown.
Hematologist Appointment
Seen the most amazing hematologist today she made me feel so calm and positive about my whole situation. After looking over my blood result she recommended that I start Folic Acid, B-12, Double dose of Baby aspirin and Prenatal as soon as possible.
She also advised me that I should start eating meat again at least chicken. I never mentioned before but I am a Pescetarian. Continue reading
Positive Note Of The Day.
Few days ago when I heard the horrible results I was extremely upset. Crying my eyes our trying to figure out why this is happening to me. But when I finally calm down somewhat I spoke to my lovely husband and he makes a very valued point.
What would they do if everything came back fine? They would be at a dead end. How would they help us? Knowing there was nothing wrong. It’s good and bad news at the same time. Now they know how to approach this situation so nothing happens again. Continue reading
Blood result are in…..
Today I received the most drenching phone call from my RE.
My Blood work results were in. Out of 21 tests 3 were bad; Natural killer cells, Methylenetetrahydrofolate, and homocysteine, cardiovascular.
I knew it from the second I had fevers during both of my cycles that I had natural killer (NK) cells. My doctor said shouldn’t be an issue, which I knew it would. The nursed advised me I had high NK cells. Continue reading
Positive note of the day
Yesterday I was a bit down about hearing that friends of mine already have a first and second baby, planning their child’s first birthday. however, I need to continue being positive for myself, for my family to understand that it’s not our time yet. That it will happen when I least expect it is long as I don’t give up and continue fighting for what I want or for what we want.
We love each other very much and God sees that he will bless us with a child we just need to have more patients.

Emotionally Drained……
I’m trying my best to stay positive but hearing day after day that a friend is having a baby or even planning a first birthday is upsetting to me.
I am very happy for all of them; I truly am. Although it’s painful knowing that I am doing everything in my power and it’s not happening for us.
The other day I had a discussion with a friend and stuff she says, I just want to scream!!!
She makes it seem that getting pregnant is so easy with her comments like “it takes no time to get pregnant” or “ I had a dream about your friend getting pregnant and when I have dreams like that I am always right”. I just want to tell her “SHUTUP!! You have no idea what people go through to have a baby!!!” Continue reading
