Blog Withdrawl...meds needed!

OK, my apologizes again & again to my fellow Blog buddies. Needless to say, I have ALOT of Blog reading to catch up on, Quilting Squares to send, Fires to put out, Dogs to Groom and a list of other items that would BORE you to tears right now. I do promise to get up to speed on all my Buddies & get my Quilting Squares mailed NEXT Week. (Sorry for the delay Kelli & Connie) I have really missed reading about the lives of some of the MOST wonderful Ladies in the world! I just wanted to mention it has simply been a pleasure, going through this journey with others that can empathise & support each other. Where would I be without all of you???? HUGS, Chicas!!

NOW.....on to my Doctor Appt with my OB/GYN. First, let me say...BERRYMOM, this reminded me of what happen when you were planning TTC. My Doctor went through all my Medical stuff (I will explain on a later post) & I mentioned my Weight, etc & my expected date of TTC. Per My Specialist he thinks I have NO REASON to wait to AI....in fact he was AGAINST my weight loss right now...(Damn him!) I understand his perspective & the reasons, ovulation can be thrown off, yada, yada, yada. So I weighed in at 140 pounds at the OB/GYN Office & that my dears is where I will stop for now. Now, here is the CRAZY part.....I have been wanting to TTC for 3 years....YES, 3 Years....so now, WHY after my health has FINALLY been cleared for take off....was I a nervous wreck on the way home? I want this Baby more than ANYTHING I have ever wanted in my life....YET, I thought of 5 reasons why I may not be the BEST mother. GROWL, I am a crazy teacher lady....sometimes I spend so much thinking, I think I need a vacation from MYSELF! So, this next cycle is my DRY RUN & Practice & it looks like.......Around GOOD FRIDAY I will be undergoing my first AI's. (Artifical Insemination).
Ok, I will update more tomorrow night & catch up with all of you.....BRING ON THE BFP'S...........I AM READY TO CONGRATULATE FOLKS ALREADY!!!

I hope you have a very good Good Friday!

You are gonna be an awesome mama! Reality, even when it is what we want, can be scary at first :0)

YAY!!! That is so cool. I am very excited for you. I know what you mean about being kind of scared. I get the freakies every so often (usually at work when I'm taking care of a baby who has screamed for hours)thinking Oh My GOD, what am I thinking. But I truly believe, all parents feel this way from time to time. We can do it and we will be great at it. Good luck.

im so glad youre able to start soon! and i can tell you the nervousness and all of a sudden "can i do this?!?!" feelings are normal. my very first AI was the "worst" as far as nerves. immediately after the insem i though "holy SH**!!!! what if this works? oh no... what if this works? im not ready!"

it'll all work out. :) andi think that going into the first round thinking its a dry run, or practice run is a good idea. no high expectations or anything (though you may be one of the lucky ones!)

i cant wait to read more!

S&C said...

YAY!!!1 I am so happy for you :-)
Dont worry everyone gets scared and freaks out. We have been actively trying since 05 and still even the adoption sometimes scares me.
You will be a great mother :-)

Chelle said...

Hoorah! It's about time you joined us!! So glad all the medical issues are resolved, and glad you're listening to your doctor! And I SO understand scared/panic. I actually felt a little relief, along with the sadness, that I'm not pg this round. That's messed up... :) I look forward to tracking what you do and when you do it!! hug*hug*hug

The Mother Hen said...

Glad your Doc knows his stuff!! It is normal to panic a little and wonder if you will do it right. You are going to be great!!!

Jen said...

Yeah! I'm so glad you'll be joining us! And girl....140??? You were worried about 140??? Oh my gosh, I would jump up and down in joyful glee if I weighed 140. I haven't weighed that in 20 years! I'm sure you look GREAT!
You are gonna be a fabulous mama so don't fret my dear! Here's to a super speedy BFP!!!
