About Me
I've been married for 4 years. I always knew I wanted a big family, but I decided to wait until I had accomplished a few other things. I love life. I have an amazing husband, fantastic friends, and a strong family. Generally I am a very happy person. I've been trying to conceive for about 27 months. My husband and I are trying to stay positive, but with each month that passes, I lose a little more of myself. I never thought that this would happen. It's not fair and I know that sounds so childish, but it's not.
Interests
I love to vacation, swim, sing, draw, ride my bike, socialize with friends, oh and rearrange furniture. (Odd, I know. I inherited that from my mom.) You rarely find me at home. I'm an extraordinarily social person. There's so much life to be lived and I refuse to look back one day and say "I should've done that!"

Hey I just saw your journal update from a week ago! 16 weeks--time is flying! That is so great! I'm so happy you're doing so well.
Hug
Thanks for your sweet message! I am doing well, thanks...how are you? I am praying that it works this time but I guess all I can do is wait. Its so nice to hear from you , its been a while! :)
I’m With You
I am spotting as well. My doctor says that lots of women spot in their early months. He said as long as the baby is growing and the heart is beating, there is only like a five percent chance of miscarriage due to spotting. He said the baby is just burrowing in there and not doing the cleanest or best job. But my doctor is not worried at all. So I am trying not to worry either! What day are you due?

Close Infertility
Hi There, My name is Jessica and I feel very blessed to have come across this site. My husband and I have been trying for a baby for 22 months. It's been so hard. People keep telling me not to worry, it's going to happen. But every month has been the same. The stick is a constant reminder that I won't have a baby this time and with every time I lose a little more hope. I'm frustrated because I don't feel like my doctors are doing anything, so I am moving on.
Treatments
- Artificial Insemination Not Working
- I've tried two IUI's on Clomid, 100mg. I was going for a third this month but I have a cyst. Meeting with the doctor to decide the next step. One failed IVF: 7 eggs, 3 mature, 4 fertilized (not strong) We are narrowing in on a diagnosis. It appears that my eggs are not maturing. My estrogen is lower than it should be. For my 2nd IVF, we are adding menopur to the gonal F (300 dosage this time from the beginning). My doctor wants to do ICSI this time to see the inside of the egg.
- Clomid Too Soon to Tell
- All signs pointed to me ovulating, no blood work was done, but my ob/gyn started me on Clomid after a year. It's only been one month.
- Lupron Too Soon to Tell
- night sweats are bad
- Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
- the kit said I ovulated each month for a year, now I'm not so sure
