So we are about to start fertility treatments again. I am doing a combination of natural supplements along with injections of menopur, follistim, and ovidrel. I am not excited about the medicine, however I have so much love around me to encourage me. I know that the party that could follow a positive result will be so tremendous it will make it all worth it. But I also know that if it doesn't work then my loved ones around me will help keep ME positive and we will try again! I will be okay either way.
This is a similar road if not the same one I have been traveling since I was a young girl battling PCOS however... I am different. I am strong. I am happy. In my pain I find growth and learning. I am actually excited for the outcome of this next year. We will either welcome new life or grow as a family in other ways and either way it is exciting and fun with many adventures. I am so appreciative of my friends and family around me!
We are also welcoming Joe's brother and wife to our Northwestern area. We are so excited for their little family to come share in the love and beauty of the people and the area here. I can't wait to play with their baby girl and help with the bun they have in the oven when he/she arrives! They are awesome people and will only add more happiness. I hope they will find the peace we have found here.
Wish me luck! I will keep you updated with the goings on! I hope that I can find more people to share my blog with. I want women to know we can empower ourselves with this disease and not just be victims! I am starting my cycle any day now (brought on with medical aid) so hormones, hormones, hormones are around the corner. Buckle up it could be an interesting ride! :-)

I'm so glad you're sharing this. I always say not infertile, but fertily challanged. I know it sounds trite, but try not to stress about it. I sometimes feel like a trader now that my miracle has arrived. Why was I able to bring life into this world after 5 years when so many others are still struggling, but I know that Heavenly Father is mindful of us and that we will all receive our hearts desires as long as we do as he asks. Have you read the book Fertile in Our Faith ? It is a wonderful book and very inspiring. My prayers are with you, good luck!!!
ReplyDeletegood luck brittany, i will be thinking of you and rooting for you... i wish the best and keep me posted!
ReplyDeleteThat's the weird thing, I used to STRESS about it. And now I "think" about it, and I yearn to experience growing a life, but I do not loose sleep, I love being a mommy to my son, and it no longer effects me in a negative way. I believe it will always be a part of who I am no matter what the outcome. But I really love who I have grown into. I know I will be sad if we never get our miracle birth but it will not be "life ending."
ReplyDeleteI love you guys so much and I know that I'm not very supportive so far away but I want you to know that you are in my prayers. I'm inspired by your strength and perserverance but most of all by your growth. I love you Adams familly!
