Over the weekend my Mom and Dad came out for a quick visit. Unfortunately my Husband was with his parents at a separate event so we took on the task of informing Grandparents on our own. I was able to hand my ultrasound pictures to my Mom and introduce her to baby #2. She started [...]

7 Weeks
Yesterday we hit 7 weeks. We had our first appointment with my regular doctor and found ourselves back in the waiting room with a bundle of nerves. I watched so many women being called back, minus their Husbands, and thought no way, no way in hell will I ever come without my Husband. What would [...]
Here we go again
I mentioned we were going to go back to the fertility doctor as soon as my next period showed up. So I waited, and waited and didn't become overly concerned when said period wasn't on time. My cycle has been getting longer each month but just for the hell of it, last Friday, I took [...]

Our anniversary was pretty tame as the Husband has been stuck working 80+ hour weeks and it's fair to say, he is exhausted. We settled for a [...]
And where do we go from here
I was ready to vomit in the parking lot of the hospital Friday. My nerves were getting the best of me when we were merely there for a last appointment with my OB/GYN. As my Husband reminded me, what could she possibly say that was worse than what we had already been through? True, just [...]
Our Thursday of Nightmares
I could tell you I knew as I was driving to the hospital. That feeling you just get in the pit of your stomach. My Husband and I sat so carelessly in the waiting room, laughing at videos on Facebook. I almost feel stupid about that now. Sipping our smoothies, thinking life was just fine. [...]
