Hello all. :)
After some time away of getting overwhelmed with all that I wanted to post...parties..dinners...vacations...recipes, etc....
I've decided to let you in on some new developments regarding Matt and I TTC (trying to conceive).
I'm really excited to document what I feel as a renewed start and more focused TTC time. Note: I'll have to put an abbreviations legend some where on my bloggy so I don't totally defeat the purpose of abbreviating...and then spelling out the abbreviation.
Last week my Dr. approved Clomid for me. This Monday, Matt went and had his guys checked. If I am where I think I am in my cycle, I should be embarking on my first Clomid cycle this weekend.
Since I hope to keep up with how it goes...if you aren't into this sort of thing..here is your fair warning. I am so excited and so hopeful! Here's to getting pregnant in 2011!!
I welcome support and prayers.
Hopeful future Mommy, Natalie
I'm going to be a mother!...at the end of the summer!! This is my journey to get there & some fun along the way.
Good luck Natalie!! I wish you guys only the best. I also tried Clomid before I got pregnant with Jake. I just know it will happen for you guys very soon.

I look forward to being a Grand - mother in 2011. Nat & Matt are going to make great parents. Still praying as always. Love you, honey.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mom..and thank you Christina! How was your experience with Clomid?
ReplyDeleteNatalie, thank for sharing this.... My husband and I have been TTC since February of this year (going on 7 months)and we STILL haven’t been able to conceive. I, “like you” have been getting nauseous after every meal, and sometimes I even throw up, and just when I think I could be pregnant I take a test and find out I'm not :( I want to look into this (I've never heard of it) Please keep sharing your experiences with taking Clomid.
ReplyDeleteHi Lucy,
ReplyDeleteI so feel your pain. I cannot count how many months I really feel like this could be it...only to see another dreaded negative test. So, now a days, I think positively: "I will get pregant.", but I am aware that our pesky monthly symptoms mirror the symptoms we hope for. I wish you the best. I know the heartache that these feelings come with.
Natalie,
ReplyDeleteWhile I was on it I had some pretty bad side effects even though it was only for 5 days or so. I usually tolerate meds pretty well, too. I had night sweats and lots of mood swings. Crying for no reason, laughing the next--geez!! That's actually why I didn't try it again. buuuuuttt...that being said everyone is different and what gave me a bad case of PMS may not be so bad for everyone else :) :)
Christina, Yikes! I've heard, well read, about those pesky kind of side effects. So far so good for me fortunately. I seem to be responding to it in almost a good way. Thankfully. Can't wait to get a Jake of my own....yours is beautiful!! :)
