Onward and Upward

I am the queen of chemical pregnancies. Three in five months.

I was really upset Monday and Tuesday, but I think I'm ok now. I feel lame because it's like I keep crying wolf. I realize this is the place to lay it all out there, but it still sucks to say "Hurray, I'm pregnant!" only to have to turn around and say "Never mind..."

So now we take a break. We're going on vacation at the end of March, so come April we'll give it another go. I'm not sure about doctor recommendations to do the dye test, it seems that the eggs are bopping along just fine. But I have time to think about that and decide when the time comes.

In the meantime I'm going to focus on being positive, having fun, exercising, and starting some sort of project.

Also, I have to get my stuff together for my meeting next Tuesday. I want to make up some handouts and other things, so I need to get a move on.

I don't know where the kick in the ass came from, but I'll take it.

Oh Shannon- I'm kicking myself for the delay in coming over here. I got the good news from Carol last week and now, here - see the most recent news.

I'm just so sorry you have to keep going through this. I pray your meeting is exactly what you need it to be. Our next one is a week from today. I can't quite believe it.

xoxo

Thanks, Cara. It's disappointing of course. We're embarking on a much needed baby-making break.

I'm nervous and excited about my first meeting, I'll be sure to write a post about how it goes.

I need to visit your blog(s) but I was a little overwhelmed by how many you have! :)

Shannon, I'm sorry for your loss! Please don't feel like you're "crying wolf." A loss is a loss... It doens't matter how many weeks you were or were not pregnant. You are ALLOWED to be sad and disappointed!

Keep your chin up! I hope things go great at your meeting.

Wow, Shannon, I'm so sorry about your latest loss. That is just so sad, and I can only imagine how frustrating and heartbreaking it must be.

Thinking of you, and wishing you the best at your meeting.

Shannon -
I'm so sorry to hear your news! The universe is a bucket of unfairness sometimes. I give you credit for having the strength to realize that a break is what you need and deserve right now. I hope your vacation recharges you, and gives you peace.
