I want to start by saying that I think breast is most definitely best. However, I realize what a sensitive subject this is, and in no way do I condone belittling a mother for choosing to formula feed. The way I see it, it is your child and your decision. Period. Also, this is the … Continue reading »

My Birth Story
On January 28th, Truck Driver Burt and I drove to the big city to go to my doctor’s appointment with Dr. Jersey. Today was the day. I was going to be induced. I had decided that I wanted a vaginal birth instead of a C-section. Truth be told, I totally chickened out after watching What … Continue reading »
9 Months
I’m feeling pretty good today, so I thought I would update all of my readers. It has been so long since I’ve written anything, and that truly does bug me. However, some things I just can’t help. For whatever reason, sitting at the computer is really hard for me. Booger gets into a weird position, … Continue reading »
Busy Bee
I’ve been so busy the past month. Sorry for not writing sooner. I just can’t keep up ya’ll. On September 24th, Truck Driver Burt and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary in a shitty motel room in Hobbs, NM. Our anniversary was on a Monday which meant that Truck Driver Burt would have already left … Continue reading »
Changes
There are a few changes in my life since the last time that I blogged. I’m now 18 weeks pregnant. My nausea and dizziness has finally disappeared. Thank goodness. I was miserable and starting to feel hopeless. My house is still a wreck at least according to my standards. Truck Driver Burt thinks it looks … Continue reading »
Back from the Doctor’s
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 »
Clomid, Limoncello, and Hair Extensions – Yes, Please!!
First of all, thank ya’ll so much for the well wishes yesterday. It meant a lot and was definitely encouraging. Thank you. I got up at 6:30 yesterday morning. I wanted to make sure I had plenty of time to shower, do my makeup, do my hair, and still have time for coffee… Yes, that’s … Continue reading »
Today is the Day
Today is the day that we finally kick off our journey… Finally going to the RE this morning. As I type this, Truck Driver Burt is right behind me, looking over my shoulder and telling me that I’m hoarding hair dye… Guess I’ll keep this short since he can be so distracting. Say a prayer … Continue reading »
With Friends Like This, Who Needs Enemies?
I had an encounter with a fertile last night. Truck Driver Burt and I went over to a friend’s house last night to have a couple of beers and hang out. This friend is building a big porch on the front of his house, and Truck Driver Burt wanted to see how it was coming … Continue reading »
I’m Back!
I’m done with my timeout and pity party. I put my big girl panties on, and I’m feeling much better. Truck Driver Burt and I discussed everything… from babies, to doctors, to driving times. I made a discussion, slept on it, and I feel very confident about it too. We decided that driving 2 ½ … Continue reading »
I Feel Like I Need A Break
I’m tired… Tired of being an infertile… Tired of struggling… I’m frustrated, sad, and still upset from Monday. I’m terrified to go to an RE now. Absolutely terrified. I’m pissed off that the next RE is 2 ½ hours away. I haven’t even started, and I’m already exhausted. I still feel defeated… And, to be … Continue reading »
It Has Been A Long Day
Oh, what a day. I woke up early. I did my hair and makeup. I was dressed up really nice. Truck Driver Burt and I were ready to go to the RE. Then, I get the call. A call from a very rude woman telling me that my RE was canceling my appointment, and she … Continue reading »
