Back to the daily grind...

Well, on Monday I started back to work. But, prior to arriving to work (Sunday), I got a visitor! Yay. Now that it's over and done with, I can move onto to bigger and better things! :)

So,  not only did I start work, but I started my period. Honestly, my period has been easier to handle than work at this point.

I never thought that things that happened personally would this week. But, like the lessons I learned in college about guys, I am slowly learning about friends now. I want a friend who will be honest with me, be supportive of me, to have confidence in each other. I'm willing to put myself on the line for a friend, to go and help them whenever needed...I've realized that not all of my "friends" were willing to do that. At this point, I'm cutting the string and I have a professional relationship with some people now.

Onto other things: Now that I've finished my period, I can start the SMEP. You can look it up if you want details. But it is basically tracking my ovulation (with my ovulation kit) and baby-dancing every other day until you get that positive ovulation prediction. Then you baby dance twice, skip a day, baby dance again. Then you wait.

About 15-16 days after your positive ovulation prediction (and hopefully a few pregnancy symptoms) you take a hpt and then you wait and see.

Obviously, I'll let you know all the details as things go on (well, not all the details, duh).

Keep praying for us on our quest for a baby!

No more pills!

I finished my Provera pills on Sunday. Woo hoo. But now, I'm sitting here waiting for my flo to come.

Want to know something weird? I was spotting yesterday. Like literally, 5 spots when I wiped (sorry tmi).

Now today, nothing.

Of course, spotting is a sign of pregnancy and period. Hopefully, I'll start by next week.

Keep praying for me so that once I get my period we can start trying again!!

HPT, Doctors, and Pills. Oh my!

Well, as of today I am 31 days late. Crazy huh, you'd think you're definitely pregnant Kim! However, after the 7th home pregnancy test that was negative, I called the doctor.

I had a doctor's appointment on Thursday to get blood work done. I was excited to find out 100% yay or nay. So I arrive, the doctor checks outs my cervix, she said it's good. She said I don't have any cysts on my ovaries. Then I get to the blood work. Not bad actually. I didn't cry, it only pinched. I watched the needle in my arm.

After the blood work the doctor gave me provera. Provera is a pill that jump starts your period. Basically it is the hormone produced right before you start your period. When it gets heightened to a certain level then your period starts. I have to take 10 pills and after the 10th pill my period should start. I'm on pill 7. On Sunday I will take my last pill. Hopefully this week I'll start my period.

Then, I bought an ovulation kit!! Now I will be able to know when I've ovulated and go from there. Since that is my problem, I don't exactly know when I ovulated or IF I even ovulated last month.

The Doctor did tell me that if I don't ovulate this month/don't have a period, then she will put me on clomid. Gah! :( Let's hope it doesn't get to that!

Want to know a secret? One of Brian and I's baby names is Emily. And lo and behold, Florida may get hit with tropical storm Emily. So I keep making jokes to Brian about how tropical storm Emily will hit me in my belly. Hah. What a coincidence, eh.

Let's hope God has a baby in store for this month! <3
