So i just took my ovadril shot! Lets hope and Pray its my last shot for a loooong while!! If not we have enough meds to do 1 more round then might take a break...Its very hard on a person to do shot after shot after shot..I give anyone credit who has to do that on a daily base...My stomach was getting very sore from shots and i was even doing every other side..So now onto the 2 week wait....we have a date were suppose to test on...So lets hope and pay that that date comes fast!!!!! There is alot going on in March...Might be getting a new car...Fingers Crossed**high hopes**..but praying it works out...My mom and i are going away for her bday **early birthday** we have a hotel and going to see trace adkins in concert and dinner at red lobster...yummm!! Then hopefully a day at the zoo with the family...and another benifit for my friends little girl reana...then maybe a trip to illinois at the endsof march!!...So here is to a fast couple of weeks!!!!!! and hope for a big fat positive!!!

....
My Immortal lyricsSongwriters: Hodges, David; Lee, Amy; Moody, Ben;
I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along
When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me, me, me

did i mess up?!?!
so i was suppose to do 187.5 each day when i did my goanl f shot...but tonight i sat and looked at my medication pen and i have 150 units left...that's not right..so that means i didn't give myself the right does of shots one night...is that the reason my blood levels were not up right?!? what was i thinking not looking or double checking my medication...i could have wasted money and messed stuff up...i feel so dumb!!!!!!

A BIG FAT
N.E.G.A.T.I.V.E
It sucks alot!! I cryed alot yesterday/last night i just new i had this feeling..and because i took a pregnancy test and it was neg. Well onto round number 3 i guess...I need to come up 630$ for medication, my dad is sending 200$ were taking 250$ out of our life insurance policy's we have 125$ in savings. total we have so far is 575..we will just put money away from this check to have the extra 55$...
Its stress full it sucks, BUT my body got pregnant once before...it can get pregnant again...
Im hoping and praying that we can keep doing this shots and the ovadril shot with timed intercourse..Because iui is any where around 1000-3000$ and ivf well hell one round cost about as much as a new car!!
Talked to the nurse yesterday if i got a negative today im suppose to stop taking my progesterone suppositories and i should get my period by next wed...if not to call them and let them know then i will start provera again
Well hope you all have a great Friday/weekend!!

ugh.............
so we test in less then 24hours i know its going to be a bfn i don't feel pregnant and i just have this gut feeling...its not our month...so onto another round of meds...it seem liked everything was perfect my body responded well to the shots besides i only got one follicle maybe if Had like 2 or 3 we would be pregnant i dunno i just hate my body i wish i could switch or get a new one...Im sick and tired of everyone have baby's and young kids having babys and people who have one night stands have babys..will it ever be my turn..i honestly don't know how much more mentally i can take of this...every time i get a negative all i wanna do is hide under my covers and cry...no one around me understands what the hell im going threw everyone is popping out babies left and right. Maybe after this month i will take a month or two off and try to get down to my weight of 160-155lbs maybe just getting that much more weight off will help my body...i doughy it getting 125lbs off didn't help do a damn thing besides made me kinda healthier but now if i gain a few pounds i freak out...Im suppose to go out with a fried this saturday but i don't really know if i wanna go...iv left this person down before...i dunno...i guess i will just go out....I HATE HATE HATE this!!!!!!!! i hate my fn body...i hate that im not a mother i hate that i lost my baby....I hate that my 2 younger sisters have kids before (however i do love them and they are great moms) I hate that i know people who can look at a guy and bam there pregnant..What did i ever do to deserve this?!? Yep i can tell you today,friday, sat, and sun is all going to be HORRIBLE FRIKEN days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will pick up my provera tomorrow and start that so we can get the show on the road to get pregnant... The medication is so expensive...Stupid insurance sees infertility as a cosmetic...oh lord come on..having a flippen baby is not cosmetic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I ask this question all the time! WHY ME?!?! what did i ever do to deserve all this hurt in my life?!? I get blessed with an amazing husband a fantastic family...But then i can't have a baby i have pcos and look like a man(do to extra body hair) i have depression , i lost my 1st baby, iv been threw many treatments to get pregnant , i had a d& done my body should have been cleaned out and ready for this round..i waited a few months to try again....If we don't get pregnant on gonal f and ovadril doing timed intercourse We can't afford iui or ivf!! I will be childless i just know it....I will never be a mom!!!!!!!!!!
Ever want something so badly?!?! that it HURTS!!
It is my fault!! Its my body that wont work...Not Leo's his body is fine!! Im the broken one!!!
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let ?em out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while even though
Goin' on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And havin' so much to say
And watchin' you walk away
And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losin' you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder gettin' up, gettin' dressed, livin' with this regret
[From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/r/rascal-flatts-lyrics/what-hurts-the-most-lyrics.html]
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And havin' so much to say
(Much to say)
And watchin' you walk away
And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do, oh
Oh yeah
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And havin' so much to say
(To say)
And watchin' you walk away
And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do
Not seein' that lovin' you
That's what I was trying to do, ooo

Embarrasing questions.
1. Does having an orgasm help you to get pregnant?
2. Should I try to stop the sperm from leaking out after sex? For how long?
3. Are there any sexual practices we should avoid while trying to conceive? For example, is saliva harmful? Sex toys? Flavored lubricants?
4. Is there a sex position that's best for conceiving?
5. I think my husband masturbates sometimes. Should he stop while we're trying to conceive?
6. Do we have to have sex every day while I'm trying to get pregnant?
7. Is there a body type that's best for conceiving? I'm flat-chested and thin-hipped . . . are women with more curves more fertile?
8. Is it OK to diet while trying to get pregnant? Is it safe to cut out carbs?
9. My period isn't late yet, but I really feel like I'm pregnant. Am I crazy? How early can I do a home pregnancy test?
10. If I get my period regularly does that mean I'm ovulating and fertile?
11. My periods are usually very regular, but the last one was late. Could that mean I was pregnant and miscarried?

Infertility and marriage
“Studies have indicated that in a typical day a woman will use significantly more words than her husband will use. He will be very matter of fact in stating the experiences of the day, or relating interactions with people he has met. She, on the other hand, will tend to go into much greater detail in reporting experiences or describing relationships…Many women find it therapeutic to talk —it is a way of relieving stress. Men, on the other hand, often find that talking about an issue produces stress.”
“Two years ago on Valentine’s Day, I was feeling about as low as I’d ever been. All the basic infertility workup had been completed and nothing stood out as an obvious impediment to pregnancy. But then, as always, I regrouped. It was Valentine’s Day—a time to be festive and romantic.My husband arrived home from work about 6 P.M. And I met him in a sexy nightgown, explaining that I had a romantic evening planned. I showed him to the bathroom, which was dark except for the votive candles scattered around. The whirlpool was gurgling away in the corner, complete with coconut bubble bath and really hot water…Somewhere in the special aura of the evening, infertility, though still close, was somehow far away from us and not so overwhelming. There was temporarily some room to cuddle and smile and laugh heartily.”

happy valentines day................
I have a Love/Hate relationship with v-day! Really whats the purpose of it? do we really need 1 day to tell our significant other and friends and family we love them?!? Shouldn't we be telling them every single day how we feel?!? All vday is good for is stress/candy that will make u fat and to spend un necessary money on silly stuff..I dunno maybe im just being weird...I have the best husband ever and friends and family they know i love them every day...i don't need 1 day to just say Hey guess what I love you!! However...i am looking forward to dinner with the family tonight!!!!!!!!!

Prayer to Heal the Pain of Infertility
| |
Dear Lord, the pain of infertility is so deep. All of our lives, we dream of being mothers, of raising children with loving hearts to do your will on this earth. Month after month when that dream does not come true, it so painful, Lord. We feel like our dreams die each month with empty arms. Please guide us to trust in your plan for us. We desperately need you in our lives. Thank you for all the blessings we do have, knowing through you all things are possible. Amen
