Turning over a new leaf

Our first paperwork

I wasn't sure if I wanted to blog about it but here it goes. After our second IVF failed we decided to look into foster care. We know it's not going to be easy but it's going to be a blessing; a calling that god has given us.  Later I'll go into more detail of what the process is and what things are required.  

On another note: We are not giving up on trying to have a child but we have to save up enough money to pay for the medication, ER & ET to start the process all over again. (We don't have any more embryos left.)  Right now we have to finish paying off what we owe for the two IVF attempts. Our doctor wants to keep doing IVF but it's so much money. On our last appointment I asked if we could do an IUI with a sperm donor he told us that it would be just as expensive as IVF and its not guaranteed to work. (My mental thought: Ummmm I have paid for 2 IVF treatments and they didn't work either so I would like to try an IUI thank you very much!) Sometimes on some of our appointments I feel like they only want our money and they really don't care.

Keep Trying...

We got the call on Tuesday around 7pm. It was a negative. I kinda had the feeling because last time I started to get nauseous early on and this time I didn't. Doctor said that he didn't know why it didn't work because the embryos were grade A but I have my next appointment on Tuesday. 

We are going to take a break until we saved up enough money to go round three with the two embryos that we have left. 

Transfer Day

Last time we didn't get one of these pictures because the t.v was broken but not this time!

We got our picture! 

Just waiting for the 14th I have the pregnancy test appointment but I think I'm going to take one before.  

Take 2

We are going at it again.  I'm taking Estrace until the 28th of this month. Then the doctor will tell us what day we can transfer.

Mommy of an Angel

We lost our little angel. We saw the heartbeat at week 7,  then we went to the next appointment. The baby had stopped growing and the heartbeat was gone. It was the worst thing I have ever experienced. The doctor told us it was a miscarriage and that we can have a cleaning procedure the following week. Now its just a waiting game to see when we can try again.

I may have only held you in my womb for a moment but I will hold you in my heart forever. 

Our Angel Baby 

7 Weeks

We got to the heartbeat! Next week we are announcing it to my parents.

I'm creating their gifts. 

First Ultrasound

Just wanted to update my page!  I've been in cloud nine lately with this little one. 

So Monday the 1st we measured 5 1/2 weeks.  Due date January 26, 2016!

Today I'm 6 weeks and 3 days so far! Baby H is a size of a chocolate chip!

Next appointment is Tuesday the 9th we are supposed to hear the heartbeat! Can't wait to hear my baby's  heartbeat! 

I have been feeling: moody, nauseous, hungry, bathroom trips, and hot flashes.
