Ups & Downs
Well, I just finished another round of Clomid yesterday. So, as Summer calls it - we will start the "baby dance" soon again. I was kind of upset because I really thought we had done everything right last month. I have taken Clomid on & off for about 5 months now (not consecutive) & I don't understand why I'm still not getting pregnant. I've been off birth control for 2 years & 3 months now. I'm taking the Clomid in combination with 1000 mg of Metformin for PCOS. I haven't talked much about this on my blog, but it is emotionally & physically draining to keep trying month after month with no positive result. I have talked with & met many other girls that struggle with this same thing. Why does it have to be so hard? Please pray for us as we try again this month. I have decided to go to a new doctor on the 17th. She specializes in fertility & I'm really excited about seeing her. HERE is her website. I have always kind of dreamed of me & my sister getting pregnant together & having showers together. We both have been trying & struggling & we know how much our parents want to be grandparents! Please pray for us & our other sweet girlfriends (Summer & Nicole) that struggle with infertility. I know God has great plans for all of us in the future. Good things come to those that are patient...right???

You bet I'll be praying! Sorry that it's so hard! :(
ReplyDeleteInfertility is hard!! I am glad I've had the chance to meet girls like you though. I am praying for you this cycle!!
ReplyDeletei love you bonnie! you will get pregnant. i am SOOOO happy you are seeing this new doctor. she will have answers for you! lots of tests! but lots of answers.
ReplyDeleteI'll be praying for you Bonnie! =]
ReplyDeleteYou'll be in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteBonnie, I will definitely be praying for you! Hopefully going to the new doctor will be a big help also.
ReplyDeleteI'm really sorry, Bonnie. I was just told that it MIGHT be difficult for me to get pregnant too, although we won't know until we try. I was upset just hearing that, so I can't imagine how frustrated and upset you must be after trying. I hope this new doctor really helps.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the same boat as you. We've been trying for 4 years. I'll be praying for you. Infertility is the worst. Just know there are MANY of us going through the same thing at the same time.
ReplyDelete:( Praying for babies..
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about your struggles. I just sometimes don't understand why things come so hard to some and not others. I myself have had 7 children and am NOW struggling with infertility myself (been ttc for just shy of a year). Many would think I should just be happy, I have children. And I am, but when that member of your family is missing, it's devastating....
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I just found your blog and if you don't mind would like to add it to my reads.

We will be praying for you and Jason!
ReplyDeleteHello. I too had a very hard time getting pregnant. I started out not going to a specialist and I believe I wasted about 4-5 years with that. Ater what I thought was suppose to take 9 months,(and a miscarriage) took 8 1/2 years but I am a proud momma of 13 year old son. Don't give up and I know it is really hard but so worth it in the end :o)
ReplyDeleteInfertility is by FAR the hardest thing I have EVER had to deal with!!!
ReplyDeleteI will be praying for you and Jason, that this month is THE month you get your miracle. I am praying for Becky too!!! I think it would just be the best if you two could be pregnant together!!!
I tried Clomid a few times last year...yikes it made my emotions soooo much worse!!! It's like double the torture!
Blessings!

Keep notes for me....
We conceived Gage after a surgery for Endo & we were told it would increase our chances of getting pg. worked for us.
But, Hubby's had surgery on his prostate last year, and we'll be doing Clomid & IUI to get pg again.
i will start praying for you TONITE! i know this journey...it's SO hard. you just wish that God would give you that little nudge about when & how everything is going to happen.
ReplyDeletewhen i got pregnant with my daughter, we had been TTC for 2 1/2 years. I went through 3 rounds of Clomid, and it worked! :)
now we've been trying again for 3 1/2 years, and 7 rounds of Clomid later...well, let's just say i will be starting another round in 2 weeks.
as i think about this journey i'm on, and how my heart aches, and how my trust has been stretched, i will think of you also, and keep you in my prayers!!! the road doesn't get shorter, but God makes it easier, i promise.
HUGS!
I found your blog through Blogger profiles - I was just looking for other women suffering from infertility issues... and I am also on the Clomid dance as well. May God bless us both in ways we can't even imagine!
