May 16th.

May or may not have just spent a few hundred dollars at local businesses today... doing my part for the economy right? Did I need hand painted coasters? No. Do I love my new hand painted coasters? Heck yes. I’ve also booked flights to gisborne to see my nephew (and my brother of course).

Work has been up and down. We are busy, same as everyone, it seems like everyone is coming into the pharmacy to avoid going to the doctors. Leg rotting off? Pharmacy, cut going septic? Pharmacy. 🤦🏼‍♀️.

Excited to speak to someone who is going to build me a fence tomorrow. Once the fence goes up I’ll be able to put a privacy screen up to match and can install my rainwater tank. Once that’s installed I can use the rainwater for my garden and dishes and things. Excited to take the next step to self sufficiency!

Lh levels were low this morning. I’m guessing I missed my peak which would prob been yesterday afternoon as my test was .4 in the evening and .1 this morning. But we will see when I test again this evening.

Not falling for it this time

It’s Friday, the day my period was expected... it’s not here yet, I know it’ll come. Mother Nature likes to play tricks on me. I get excited buy a hpt it comes back negative, but I still hope that it’s too early to tell or maybe I’m having twins!! Lol. She gets me every time, but not this time. This time I will buy tampons instead of test. This time I’ll await my period knowing it’s just late due to me stressing out all the time.

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, fool me three times IM STUPID!!! Not happening, not today!

Perjuangan Kami..

Its been almost 3 years and we still counting,when we get turn. Ini bukan Waktu yang sebentar untuk kami menunggu. Setidak nya bagi setiap yang berharap satu hari rasa nya seperti satu bulan lamanya. Dan kami masih setia menunggu giliran dari sang Maha Kuasa agar berkenan memberikan ridha Nya,agar lekas menurunkan kehendak Nya. Kadang kami lelah baik berharap maupun meminta,tidak satu ato dua kali kami kehilangan keyakinan terutama pada diri kami sendiri tapi bayangan itu,angan-angan itu,impian untuk memeluk seorang putra atau putri,bayi kami sendiri membuat hati kami bersinar keinginanpun menguat kembali dan entah bagaimana kami mencoba lagi,dan lagi dan lagi.. Lalu berhenti lagi dan lagi dan lagi.. Dan mencoba lagi dan lagi dan lagi.. Keinginan ini tertanam dan meski tak kami pupuk dan sirami tapi dia terus tumbuh di dalam hati kami. Dan akan selalu ada sepanjang hidup kami. Pada akhir nya kami menemukan diri kami hanya berjuang untuk bersyukur bukan lagi mengupayakan agar pembuahan terjadi. Segala lelah dan sedih ini kami hapus dengan rasa syukur. Ya,kepada sang Pencipta. Kepada satu-satunya yang dapat membuat kemungkinan ini terjadi. Kepada satu-satunya yang mampu menganugerahkan keajaiban kecil dalam hidup kami. Kepada-Mu ya Rabbi. Hanya kepada-Mu

TTC Losing hope...

I just needed to get this off my chest and since most of my family and friends don’t know this was the only place I could type out my feelings..

So long story short. Me and my wife have been TTC and we’re using a known donor who is a good friend of ours. And it just feels like every time he is home from work or I’m ovulating something comes up and he can’t come over. It’s been five months since we officially decided to start trying and we’ve only inseminated once. My big heart wants to believe it’s just bad timing but part of me always wonders if he’s changed his mind but is afraid to say... everyone keeps telling us to find a plan B... but we don’t She one.. all my eggs, literally are in one basket..

I really wanted a Christmas announcement or wanted to be pregnant in the fall/winter which was why we started in August... I’ve given up both of those dreams and I’m just losing hope about it happening at all, since with out a reliable donor there is no possible way for it to happen.

It’s happened gradually... I’ve stopped taking my BBT, I’ve stopped checking my OPK, and most disheartening to me is that after 150 days of pretty spot on consistently... I’ve stopped taking all my pregnant vitamins... I just dont see the point... why wake up everyday at the same time to check my temperature... why pee on a stick twice a day just to tell me I’m close to something that has absolutely zero chance of appening.. and why take four vitamins a day to get my body ready to be a baby that will never has a chance to move in...

Doing all the research and spending hours everyday reading pregnancy articles, or looking up other options. Trying to figure out how long you would have to save pennies to afford Vials of sperm at $600 each just kills a person inside. What are you suppose to do when you have no means to make your dream come true?

My story

February 13th I got home from grocery shopping and I just had a feeling that I needed to take a pregnancy test. It was positive immediately. I was so excited but of course nervous to tell my parents as I was 18 years old. I told my mom the same day and she cried saying she was disappointed in me and that she wanted better for me. It was a knife to the heart. Not what you want to hear from your mom. I was even more nervous to tell my dad after getting my mom's response. I eventually worked up the courage to tell my dad on February 19th, my 19th birthday. He was so happy. He instantly hugged me and was so excited to be a grandpa. The next day I had a little spotting and side pain but was told not to worry because it's normal in the beginning of pregnancy. The days following that I had started to bleed more and have episodes of excruciating pain in my left abdomen. On February 26th, it was confirmed that I was miscarrying. It was the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. I was heartbroken. It's been a rocky roller coaster ever since. My boyfriend, of 4.5 years, and I have been trying to conceive ever since.

Hello.

So here’s my first post on this blog.

My intention is to use this as an outlet, and have an online community of relate-able posts and people so I can feel less alone in this process.

Here goes nothing. 

Hi! My name is Haley, I’m 23 and just started cycle 7 of TTC baby number one with my husband. No fertility issues that we’re aware of. Pristine bill of health and above average fertility, yet no BFP. Our first month of TTC (March of this year) we successfully got pregnant, but unfortunately it was a chemical pregnancy.

Here we go!

The big move..

It’s 2019 most couples move in together fairly quickly, my husband and I wanted to do the same but we couldn’t. We started officially living together about 2 weeks after we got married. We were excited, we were nervous, we were hopeful. J and I were used to the sleepovers, hanging out every single day, talking 24/7 but, we were not used to maintaining an entire household together. We decided we were going to move from California all the way to Indiana to be closer to his family, so I could get to know them and all that’s good stuff. Living together is so much fun, it’s like we’ve never been apart, it’s.... comfortable. The thing is you never want to get too comfortable. At times it’s hard, I’m really bad at money management, and I can be a total mess, j doesn’t like his things moved, he’s picky with laundry. So we are trying too work on that together, which isn’t so bad. Our decoration situation is amazing I can do anything I please he doesn’t really care, and he’s always colorblind so I can throw some girly colors in there without too much of a fuss. Over all it’s been amazing except for our very few flaws that we do have, he’s my best friend, and I enjoy his company. We are making it work, we of course are going to fight, I don’t know a couple that doesn’t, we always get over it and go back to being besties. I can’t wait to live with this man forever an add animals and children to our home!

7lbs! I cant believe it. I am not holding my breath. All I have done this week is up my water intake significantly. I worked out 3 times. and have been fighting with portions. Yesterday was completely out of control but YOLO.  I need to continue this and I will reach my goal. I am already almost to the amount of loss the dr wanted before they would consider surgery.  I think I can do this.

Are babies an option for us? The doubts, the nervousness, the longing for a baby at just 21 years old and only 5 months into a marriage!

What the heck is my deal? I’ll explain all of that in an upcoming post!

the Journey Begins

I have been counting calories for about 3 weeks now. I rejoined the gym and am trying my best to be motivated to get there.  Today my struggle was with the cereals on hand. Wanted to choose one for breakfast. I had to choose between lower calories and lower carbs.  I went with lower carbs. The extra 5-10 calories isn’t gonna make a difference especially if i do yoga and cardio today. 

A little bit about the reason for this journey. Almost 8 years ago I had my son and decided to get a tubal ligation. At that time i was in a not healthy relationship with my ex husband. I didnt want any more kids with this fool. 

Fast forward 4 years. I decided enough was enough and left him.  I met my current husband and we have been together almost 6 years, and married almost 1. We had discussed options for having another kid several times over the last 2-3 years. With my Tubal I have three options. 

1. admit defeat and just say nah not what we want.

2. tubal reversal surgery. 

3. In-vitro Fertilization. 

We have decided on option number 2. The surgery is a fraction of the price as IVF. Tubal reversal boasts a 60-70% chance of success. Where as IVF says 15-20% EACH round of implantation. The kicker is the doctors office i spoke to wants me to lose 10lbs before the surgery.

Ok lets back up. I never told you my weight. I am currently at 250.1lbs 52.5% body fat. (thank you fitbit scale) My goal really is to get down to at least 200 before we get pregnant. I was at 214 at the time of conception with my son. I weighed 280 the day of delivery. I was down below 200 2 weeks postpartum. I managed to get down to 140 at one point. However unfortunately I gained it back. Whether it be a combo of meds with bad eating or whatever I have to try something. Back to the reasons. 10lbs. ok not too bad. I feel if i lose the first 10. I can go further. SO here I am. Just a mom trying to do right by her family.

life is sometimes a bitch, so is online.

When I first started TTC-ing I knew that it would possibly take some time. That it wouldn't be immediate as I would like. So I wanted to reach out to an online community. Try to look at ttc-ing in a positive light. (I like to be optimistic) But that online community were straight up bitches!! Instead of giving me little advice they corrected my grammar/spelling. They decided to ridicule my questions and concerns. 

Who the fuck are you? Are you better than me because you started TTC-ing before me? Just because your ass is so damn bitter that you had to throw your attitude and frustrations on me. 

Don't know how someone trying to be a "mom" can go behind a keyboard and feel the need to nip-pick everyone. -Spreading hate instead of love.

2 years later I'm still TTCing for my first. And within those 2 years there have been 6 babies that have been born/going to be born in my immediate family. Am I bitter? no. Little envious yes. Do I bash/hate my family members for getting pregnant before me or easily? NO!!

Some people need to get off their damn high horse and realize everyone has their own journey, their own difficulties. Life isn't fair, but that does't excuse your fucking attitude.

Grow the fuck up.
