Welcome to my blog about my journey to getting pregnant. I started this so that I'd have a place to write and vent about this process without spamming people on my facebook, especially when some people just don't care.
So, some background on this whole process. Brandon and I have been trying to get pregnant for a year now. Unfortunately, with my PCOS diagnosis, it has made it difficult. I don't ovulate when I am supposed to, or at least not without help from some medicine (Clomid), and therefore, it makes it very difficult for me to get pregnant on my own.
I have been charting my BBT temps for a year, I've been on Clomid for four months, and now we are preparing for our first IUI (artificial insemination) cycle in January. We are hoping that this will be the end of the trying to conceive (TTC) journey and the beginning of our pregnancy journey, but we will see.
The only thing I ask, if you are following this blog, is not to tell me anything that goes along the lines of "things will happen in their own time" or "it will happen when you stop trying." This is very frustrating to hear, especially from people who have not been through this struggle before and have no idea what it is like to hear those words.
Also, this blog is going to be filled with way too much information, so if you aren't up for TMI, then close your eyes. :)
You are a braver woman than I. I had a TTC/pregnancy/baby blog (that I haven't written in since April or so), but I never showed it to a soul. Best wishes for yours to turn from a TTC to a pregnancy blog straightaway!
ReplyDeleteWell, I figured those who cared can look at it, and those who don't don't have to look at it. Eliminates me having to figure out who cares and who doesn't. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your well-wishes, though, Liss. I know you understand at least partly what I'm going through.
Your brave I am excited to reading about your journey!
