Mother's Day

This Mother's Day was an interesting one for me. It was wonderful, Brian made me breakfast in bed and got me season tickets to see the Aggies play football. One of my sunbeams that has a hard time leaving his parents stayed for the whole lesson and then saw me as we were walking home from church and said "Hi teacher see you next week". Emma went potty in the potty 3 times in a row, not only did she do this but SHE is the one who told me she had to go. I had a nice afternoon with my mom and grandma.
But this Mother's Day was different, this Mother's Day I felt the heartbreak of those women who are longing to be moms, I felt their pain as we were celebrating the one thing they desire most to be... I also felt so much gratitude that I at least I had my princess at least I am a mother.

Monday at work our hygienist was gone and she had her friend sub in for her. During a down time we started talking and sharing our stories on infertility. She has known since Jr. High that she would never get pregnant. She told me about the process to adopt and how she is going through it right now. Her faith was such a strength to me. I am praying that she is blessed with a baby soon.

Yesterday my Dr. called, he called not his nurse. That impressed me. He told me that the blood test confirmed that I am not ovulating so clomid is our next step. He is also prescribing something to make me bleed incase I don't this month... since clomid needs to be started on day 3-5 of the cycle. I am feeing good about the progress being made. I am worried about what the hormones of Clomid will do to my body... hopefully it doesn't make me too crazy so that Brian will still want to make a baby with me. But I feel like we are moving along and one day will be blessed with our baby. I feel like all the waiting and heartbreak will make me appreciate it more. I know my baby is worth the wait. Wish me (and Brian since he is the one dealing with me) luck!
