I’m feeling better.  I’m not having any more drainage which means I don’t have a sore throat any more.  Big plus.  I’m not having any more fever.  It broke around 2 this morning.  Now, all the gunk is coming out of my sinuses, and they’re pretty sore.  My nose also looks like Rudolph’s, and I … Continue reading »

Against my better judgment, I decided to test before my doctor’s appointment.  BFN.  It is very early though.  Maybe I won’t start my period.  I pray. Once I got to the doctor, they weighed me.  Much to my horror I have gained about 15 pounds while on Clomid.  HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS???  The … Continue reading »

Over the past couple of days I’ve been sanding the antique high … Continue reading »

Don’t Ignore People with Infertility

I’m just like you. I feel like new. I’m married to the man of my dreams, But I can’t get pregnant it seems. I see new mommies, daddies, and kiddies walking in the sun, And I feel like there is a weight on my heart that weighs a ton. I hear children’s laughter filling the … Continue reading »

Hope ya’ll had a great weekend!  Ours was pretty good and relaxing too.  On Friday, I cut my sage and started drying it.  I know… how very Martha Stewart of me.  We also had a barbeque that night.
