CD4...

Well, I had a terrible sore throat yesterday, so before I went to bed I looked at it with a flashlight. Yep, puss....just a couple of little spots, but it's there. SO, I started some natural meds and am praying for healing. Last time this was a virus & the antibiotics did nothing. I'm praying, believing I'll be healed & in the meantime, I'm resting drinking LOTS of water & taking a natural antibiotic and gargling with salt water! This WILL be a great cycle & I won't let a sore throat keep me down!! ;o)

She's here!

AF found me on Wednesday (3/10/10)! I'm ready to get this show on the road! I'll start Femara on Sunday! I'm soooooo ready! I'm also working out regularly and I started a relaxation program on Thursday! It's called Circle & Bloom & it's made for fertility! About 15 minutes of guided relaxation every day....that & my quiet time & I'm feeling really good! Praying that the relaxation sessions will help with my stress levels. They've been through the roof for about 6 months....so this can't hurt. I'm praying believing this cycle will give us our bfp!! God Bless!!

"Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life."
Phillipians 4:6-7

We're back!

Well, after 2 months on bcp....we're back and ready to get pregnant!! LOL! I've lost 12 lbs...which I'm SO excited about! And we feel as if we've had a great break....things in our lives were NOT relaxed during that time, but the Lord refreshed my soul & has given me amazing peace. I'm ready to face another round of ttc! We've had so much FUN with our family of 4 these past 2 months! I have been reminded over & over just how much my wonderful Savior has blessed me! I'm at peace with whatever the outcome of these months of fertility treatments bring. We'll be ttc until I'm 35 & then we'll stop. I'm at peace with that too!

Right now I'm waiting for AF to get here! Our protocol this month is....
7.5mg Femara cd5-9
Estradiol cd10-14
Prometrium 3dpo-?

I'm praying this combo works the first time!

OT, please pray for my parents. In January we put down some boundaries concerning our girls....Darling & I talked & prayed & felt at peace with our request. When I shared what we wanted, my dad just blew up at me. He & my mom are no longer speaking to us. My mom wouldn't even come to Little Miss's birthday party because it was in our home. I've cried, felt rejected, wondered if I was wrong....but I know that this is all part of God's plan for MY life. My parents self-imposed boycott of us has been a blessing in disguise. I'm so relieved! It's given me MUCH needed time to allow God to work in my life. The Lord has been pouring peace into my heart & I am so thankful. It still hurts when I know that my parents have invited all my siblings over for dinner or lunch or a football game or whatever & have purposefully left my family out.....but it isn't my problem. I didn't do anything wrong & I just have to trust the Lord to work it all out!
