Lent Session

Even though I was hopeful that having the HSG exam would increase my chances of getting preggers... it didn't happen. So we're moving onto the next stage... clomid and timed intercourse. This month I wanted to take a break from everything... no temping.. no OPKs. I dunno if that increased my stress or not. I did temp a couple of days of the cycle. So, yea.. I cheated. So, I'm waiting for Aunt Flo to arrive...

I'm surprised how much work goes into this. Once I get my period.. I need to get a scan done between the first or third day. Then I get a prescription and take the clomid pills for 5 days. Then I get another progesterone lab drawn..and then cross my fingers. I guess its not too much.. but when I first was told of the whole thing.. i was freaked out. Also I work so scheduling the scan and labwork is gonna be tricky.

So yesterday I went to Ash Wednesday Mass... and would luck have it... all the kids from the church went to mass at that same time. It was a reminder of what I want... so, for lent I'm going to try to be less jealous and envious of all my friends that have kids.. are pregnant. Every time someone tells me they're pregnant... I almost have a fake happiness for them because I'm reminded that its taking us so long. So, I'm going to try to be geniunely happy for them. This one is gonna be a hard one.

So, I want to do another thing to give up...can't think of a simple thing to give up... maybe I'll give up fast food.
