Been a few days...

Been a few days since my last post...I've been in Toronto at a conference for work. It was great, had fun, didn't really want to leave! If you've never been I highly recommend visiting!! Even though I was out of town I still temped and everything seemed level. This weekend will be a good weekend though if all the projections are right! Anyway, just wanted to update why I feel off the face of the Earth for a few days :) back to my waiting at the airport...apparently there was a bad storm in Dallas last night...something about hail and high winds...anyway, our 11:30 flight out of Toronto was canceled, so they booked us a flight to Houston at 5:30! That means 6 hours of airport sitting and waiting, waiting and sitting! Then after we got our tickets we had to go through customs; they must get their customer service tips from Walmart! They had 35 booths, only 5 were open! Then three people left for lunch and they brought in 1 backup. That was an hour and half of my life I will not get back. So here I sit and wait, wait and sit! Facebook and thebump.com here I come!!

Nut Shell

So our journey began in November 2010. While laying in bed one night Kyle asked if I was ready for babies (at this point he knew I had been ready), and I replied with I ‘m just waiting on you :). So as luck may have it, my next O cycle was in two weeks and we were able to start right away. In December 2010 we had a positive on the HPT for about 4 days, and then AF came and the negative/disappointment came as well. At the advice of my best friend Dana I made a preconception appointment and met with my OB/GYN in March 2011. He was able to answer my concerns about an ovarian cyst I had rupture in the summer of 2009, and put my mind at somewhat of an ease on if having sinus tachycardia would cause any issues convieing or during pregnancy—I was really just glad that all the advice he gave me I was already doing! I was already on a prenantal vitamin and was using OPK.

We have been trying now for six cycles and no bambino’s yet. That is basically a nut shell of how we got to the point we are at today!

The Purpose

So after much thought and deliberation, I've decided to start a blog to record our journey of TTC. A part of me wants a place vent about the frustrations I'm having along the way, but I also hope someone will stumble across them and it can help them in some way shape or form.
