My family. I have a wonderful husband. I have two amazing stepchildren, 6 y/o stepson and a 4 y/o stepdaughter. I'm already a mommy and feel incredibly blessed. I would like to be able to give them a little brother or sister.

I love to read when I need to get away. I've found a new obsession in crossword puzzles. I hate to work out but I love to swim. So when I make myself hit the gym, I make sure to hit the pool too.

I love all music! It just depends on my mood!

My husband and I have been trying to conceive since we got married. It took us 8 months to conceive our first. We were pregnant for 10 weeks before we found out we miscarried. It was and sometimes still is the hardest thing I've had to deal with in my life. So we tried to conceive on our own for another year, unsuccessfully. We've been seeing a fertility specialist for a year now. I did 3 months on Chlomid before I was moved to injections. I did 4 months on injections then scheduled a laproscopy. Dr. found and cleared a little endo, a little scar tissue and removed some residual endometrial lining. During the procedure, my tubes were blocked. The following month we had the HSG and found the tubes clear. So we did another month on injects, to no avail. We had to take the following month off due to overstimulation. I started drinking red raspberry leaf tea and used preseed. My cycle went a few days longer than usual but AF showed again. I've done 2 more inject cycles with IUIs to no avail. I'm currently taking some time off of the treatments. DH and I are still trying but I'm trying to focus on other areas of my life and re-energize. I'm burned out and becoming quite jaded. It's not the way I want to be so I'm prayin for a little miracle. So talk to me and let's pass the time together! Update: I've been changing my way of thinking. I started this journey as a sprint only to find it is a marathon. I keep giving myself deadlines which obviouly doesn't work. It would only leave me feeling frustrated and depressed. So I'm running this journey as a marathon. I'm doing one month at a time. Hopefully, this will help me relax and become pregnant! My heart goes out to all of you going through this journey!

Hi Michelle, Good luck with your IUI!!!  I really like the way you are thinking about ttc as a marathon.  I had my first IUI last month and it didn't work.  I was very positive during my 2ww and since recieving my bfn I have been in a funk.  Your words made me feel better.  Take care.  Megan

Good luck with the IUI! I am actually a mother/baby nurse at a hospital, so around new moms for a living! I just threw a baby shower for a nurse at work today at my house. There were 4 preg gals here! Also, had a 17 y/o patient the other day. I agree with you! If we were single and on crack we might be prego! I see it all

Hey Thanks for the comment...My tww wait is going good...I actually just tested myself on day 7 and got a negative result but alas it could still be early...Im not goin to test again unless its past the two weeks or more...This is my second IUI that i've done now...Hoping its the last haha...I was on Gonal F, Ganirelix and Ovidrel this time...Yes the symptoms of the shots etc are so much like being pregnant I guess...Im a little crampy today which is day 8 for me after the IUI...I have my fingers crossed and toes that its the "one"...Keep me posted on your results etc...

My husband and I have TTC for 1 year, three months. Ive taken my 4th dose of clomid this time at 150mg. (the highest they go). I also had an IUI this cycle and I feel this TTW is killing me. They say to keep busy and relax, but I find it impossible. Im on 8 DPO. I never had a misscarriage, I cant even imagine that loss. Ive never been pregnant. I feel like everyone around me is pregnant and its more than frustrating. Write to me if you want to pass the time, I know I need to!

I was 10 weeks along also when i had my miscarriage and yes that was the hardest thing i ever had to go through. I pushed everyone away including my DH. I have been on clomid now for 6 cycles and they upped my dose to 100mg but i tested early yesterday and got a big fat negative. We are taking a break for now. My hubby is in the navy and will be leaving next month for at least 2 months so no need for clomid. I have good days and really BAD days. i have noticed lately ive been coming close to depression again. Its like an obsession if that makes since. huggies and baby dust to you.

Hey Michelle319,

My husband and I have been trying for over a year also...I've been diagnosed with pcos and my husband has a little lower semen count.. I have done the metformin, clomid etc cycles and nothing...I have done one cycle on injectibles such as gonal f and ovidrel and had a iui done...I unfortunately didnt concieve taht time..Last month I had to wait a month because my hormone levels were to high and had to be put back on bcp's...Now on saturday after doing injectibles such as gonal f, ganirelix and ovidrel I had my second IUI...This two week wait is goin to kill me again...I must say this is thy worst thing to go through...Think positive I guess and maybe I can add you to my friends list? Im new on this site
