My new diet

I've decided to start the PCOS diet. I have a book about it and am learning alot! I'm really hoping this will help me to have better egg quality and a healthy pregnancy. Granted, I'm not really looking forward to this diet because I can't have caffiene or diet coke-which I'm addicted to :-( I have to eat lots of protien, whole grain, simple sugars, veggies etc. Plus I learned chocolate cake is better than a bagel! Crazy huh? Granted, that doesn't mean I'm supposed to be eating cake for breakfast, but you get the idea. So.....here I go! I'll keep you post on how I do! :-)

If I hear one more person say....

I know alot of people have harsh opinions about fertility meds and treatments, but when you ache to be a mom it's just something you have to do! Well, a lady at work the other day said, "Maybe if you just stoped treatments and meds you could get pregnant on your own.". Uh, hello?! That's like telling someone who has high BP to stop taking their medicine, it only makes things worse! If I stop my metformin, by insulin would be out of control and I'd be worse off than I am now. After almost 21 months of trying, I thinks it pretty obvious we can't get pregnant on our own and the treatments aren't just for fun. I want to slap the next person that says something rude like this to me. That is exactly why I need this blog and have told people we're on a TTC break. Ugh...and the most annoying thing is this usually comes from people who got pregnant extremely easily or accidentally. I could go on and on about the rude things I've heard but I won't, it'll just make me more upset. So, I'm going to go finish up my work and start my weekend at 1pm! YAH!

Here we go again...

I decided to start this blog because I wanted to write about our journey, uncensored-without having to worry about what our friends or family thought. After our m/c J and I decided we would no longer share our treatments or pregnancy with anyone until after the first trimester...so here's where I vent, complain and spill the exciting news!

I decided to start my provera today. I'm getting my wisdom teeth removed on the 3rd by Dr. C's nurse promised the procedure and meds would not effect this cycle or my Femara....so here we go again. We got pregnant on the first cycle of Femara 5mg last time and now Dr. C bumped it upto 7.5mg so I'm praying it will be just as easy as last time. However, then I get the reminder of all the heartache through our miscarriage and just pray that doesn't happen again...only time will tell and we have to trust in God's plan...
