Beginings
June 5, 2007
Now we have been ttc for 2 years. Jeff has had a SA and I have had the usual
blood work done. I went and saw my OB in April and he prescribed Provera to make
me have a period since I hadn't had one in a couple of months. I've always had
irregular periods but that was the longest I've ever gone in between. So I procrastinated
on getting the RX filled and wouldn't you know it I got a period before I even
went to the pharmacy. I was excited that I didn't have to take the meds but disappointed
that it almost seemed to stall this process even more. My OB wants me to wait
to see if I get another period before either having me take the Provera or having
any further testing. Which I know is the right thing to do but again i'm getting
tired of this waiting game. I know that I must be patient and I have constant
reassurance from my mother who also took forever to conceive( it took 3 yrs before
she was pregnant with me her first). Luckily I only have to wait a few more weeks
and I hope that I get somewhere. So two weeks ago on thursday one of my best friends
had a baby. She had a beautiful baby girl named Annalysa. Well ever since then
Jeff has been wanting to spend every chance he gets with her and her parents.
(The baby's daddy is Jeff's best friend) Now don't get me wrong I absolutely adore
the baby and her parents are my closest friends. But I can't help but feel a little
jealous. Watching my DH with her makes me happy but makes me crazy at the same
time. I'm growing more and more impatient and I know that stress is not helping
but I just can't help it. Jeff has been so amazing through this whole process.
I know that he is also growing a bit impatient but he tries to hide it. I know
that we are young and as everyone keeps saying "you have plenty of time" but 2
years seems like a long time to wait but I must admit that this whole waiting
thing has brought us closer together. He seems interested when I tell him all
of the little tricks other women have suggested and he encourages me to not lose
faith. Plus i'm sure that he doesn't mind the trying part either. :)  |  |
