Update On Me…

By ·

Took down this post because sponsor was unable to pay me for it. So, I will make this post about how I am doing :) So the comments left below, were for that post, LOL, not this one :)

I am still desperately trying for baby #3. It is such a long, hard road, OMG. I never would have thought that ttc our third child would take almost three YEARS and counting…

It is very difficult hearing others announce they are pregnant, though I am extremely happy for them, I do wish it was ME announcing my pregnancy. Then I hear of those who have lost babies and am so deeply and truly sad and sorry for them :( No matter how old a BABY is, whether you JUST found out you were pregnant and miscarried, to losing your baby at 16 or more weeks, it is all VERY sad and unfair. So hugs to everyone who has suffered this sort of loss or any loss. It is so hard to deal with, I know all too well.

I have had 5 IUI’s and am about to do my 6th IUI (this is where they transfer your partners sperm into your uterus). They spin it and wash it and then put it into your cervix via a very small catheter, neat huh? It does not hurt really and the process is fairly quick. So, I have that to look forward to on Friday.

The reason it is taking me sooooo long to conceive, is because, when I was pregnant with my daughter, I lost my left fallopian tube. I am ovulating on the left side most months, and that explains why I am not getting pregnant, UGH. Month after month, being monitored (having an ultrasound to see which side I am ovulating from), fertility drugs and shots, I am worn out!

BUT…

Yesterday I went in for my Follicle Scan (to see which side I am ovulating from this month, sigh..) and I am ovulating from the side with the tube!!!!! FINALLY!! So, this month I have a CHANCE! I am soo excited, because every month I go in to see which side I am ovulating from I get the same dang news, that I am not ovulating on the side with my tube, but I am this month :) Oh I was and am beyond excited!!

Soooooo..

On Wednesday I get to give myself a Trigger shot, which is to make me ovulate 36 hours later so I will be giving myself a shot tomorrow night! Yikes, never have done it before, but the things one will do to have a baby…

So, that is what I have been up to, with my fertility issues and such. It felt good typing this as I never never really talk about myself or my fertility problems. It can really break a person, but this month I have HOPE!

You wanna know what is also kind of cool/weird???

In the last year, I have talked to FOUR different psychics, online, and each one has told me that I will conceive in March…….

“So, how are YOU doing????”

ConceiveEasy Fertibella TTC Kit Review & Giveaway

By ·

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Shawn Rand #315!!

 

I was not able to review this ttc kit only because I am using fertility drugs to help in my journey in ttc again. I found this out after I said I would review this, that you cannot take this with fertility drugs, so I just passed it on to my friend, who is also trying to conceive. She was happy to help me review!

I received the ConceiveEasy Fertibella TTC Kit. I then mailed it to my friend. Her thoughts when she received the kit was she was so happy with it. I, of course, kept all the pregnancy tests it came with, because heck, I go through about 20 or MORE a month as it is, so free pregnancy tests are good to have! It can get VERY expensive you know…

 

My friend started taking the Fertibella immediately, when she received them from me in January. Her cycles have always been all over the place and ovulating was hard to determine. Fertibella is a natural aid (kind of reminded me of Fertilaid) to helps boost a woman’s fertility level by stimulating ovulation. It is said to be safe and an all-natural solution with no side effects. So, the first month my friend took the Fertibella, she said, her cycles started regulating AND she said she thinks she felt ovulation pains! She had more cervical mucus than she had in a LONG time, so she was soo happy!! Her and her hubby have been trying to conceive for almost as long as me and my hubby (me almost 3 years, her 2.5 years). She is thrilled that things in her cycle are starting to make sense and that she is having symptoms of ovulation! This is her second month using Fertibella and though she did not get a positive test result on a pregnancy test last month, she is super positive about this month! She said she has not had any side effects, bad ones, but she has had positive effects to Fertibella and that is great!

Now, I did do some research on the web and have noticed some complaints about Fertibella. Let me explain to you. Fertibella has a free trial promotional offer. This is where they offer a 30-day limited promotional offer to allow moms-to-be the opportunity to try the product before they buy it. For people who decide to cancel, they are never billed. The company said they go to great lengths to help their customers, and go the extra mile to ensure the best possible customer experience. And while that’s reflected in their A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, it’s also the nature of the Internet, that sometimes, a frustrated customer can say any number of things, and it’s beyond their control. You do have to give your credit card number and you HAVE to remember to cancel BEFORE the first 30 days AND send back your bottle(s) BEFORE the 30 days is up. IF you don’t, you WILL be charged on your credit card. Many people did not understand this and therefore there are some bad reviews on Fertibella. Just follow the rules and everyone wins. End of story!

I also have to say that the larger pregnancy tests that come with this kit (NOT the smaller ones, they seem to be accurate), can be deceiving. I say this after taking all of them some of them and seeing a FAINT pink second line. It was on all of the tests that I took. I even went to the store and bought First Response because I was so excited, but all of those were negative, no line :( So that kind of broke my heart a bit.. So, I don’t recommend those pregnancy tests and if you do see a line on them, please back it up with another test just to be sure. False hope sucks! But, these tests are good if you are a poas (pee on a stick) a-holic and want to pee on things when you are only 3 days past ovulation, LOL. All you trying to conceive mama’s KNOW what I am talking about! Ha!

More Info On This Kit..

So, this is an all-in-one trying to conceive kit. It is said to be all you will ever need to increase your fertility and get pregnant faster. And for a limited time (see above!) moms-to-be can try the new TTC Kit and choose to customize their kit with any combination of an exclusive bonus gift of 20 free pregnancy tests, 20 ovulation tests or 10 pregnancy tests and 10 ovulation tests.

The formula has been clinically tested and those using ConceiveEasy (Fertibella) showed an increase in pregnancy rate of 33%. This kit assists women in increasing their fertility rate in just 28 days. The blend of ingredients helps support and enhances the body’s own reproductive cycle to eliminate common problems with conception that include things like progesterone deficiency, irregular cycles, poor quality cervical mucus and hormone imbalances.

So, all in all, my friend is certainly happy with the results so far, in taking the Fertibella.

SpermCheck Fertility Kit Giveaway

By ·

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Kayla Syslk #75!!

 

If you all follow my blog you know I have been trying to conceive our 3rd child now for almost 3 years now :( I have been taking fertility drugs, getting tests done and I have had 4 IUI‘s with nada. It is VERY discouraging to say the least and EXPENSIVE. I am beginning to accept I may never have another child again and it breaks my heart…and miss the ones so much I have lost :(

I am sooo very blessed for the two miracles I do have right now. Every day I love on them and kiss them, probably more than they would like ;)

At the beginning of my ttc journey, we did all sorts of testing, I was tested and of course my hubby was tested too. He was a bit embarrassed to do the Semen Analysis, what guy would not be, or at least be a little bit? I certainly wish that I had the SpermCheck Fertility Kit back then! Hubby would have felt more at ease, I am sure. Come to find out hubbys sperm are AWESOME little guys and he is all good, LOL. It is ME. Well, I think the fact that I have only one tube, is definitely NOT helping the situation :(

Now, I am not making any claims on this kit as I have not reviewed it, but I will tell you what their site says…

The SpermCheck Fertility Kit is an at-home test kit. Men can now test their sperm count in the comfort of their own home! SpermCheck Fertility is the only FDA approved, 98% accurate home test for men. Meaning it is as accurate as a lab test but more affordable and convenient and you can bypass the embarrassment too. In only 10 minutes the easy-to-read results will indicate a normal or below normal sperm count. Since experts do believe that a sperm count test should be the very first and essential step in fertility testing for couples, this kit really makes sense to use, before visiting your doctor’s office and spending money on this. This test is non-invasive and can help eliminate or identify a potential stumbling block to conception. And if you have been trying to conceive as long as I have, you want QUICK, easy and painless ways to help you to conceive  FASTER. I hate all the tests at the doctors I have to do, blah!

 

Why SpermCheck® Fertility?

  • SpermCheck® Fertility FDA approved 
  • SpermCheck® Fertility is as accurate as lab testing – 98% accurate
  • SpermCheck® Fertility is private and convenient – done in the privacy of your own home

Charting Your Fertility With OvaCue (Review and A Giveaway!)

By ·

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Shaunda Eppes #390

If you are a loyal reader of my blog, you know that I have been having a heck of a time getting pregnant with our third child. I have also had 3 losses, but now I can officially say FOUR. I say officially four, because when I went into see my fertility specialist a few weeks ago, he told me something that alarmed me. He said he was looking through my files and saw that I DID indeed have a tubal pregnancy WHEN I was pregnant with my daughter… Say What?! Ya, I NEVER knew that… till then. I had to pick my mouth up off of the ground. For when I DID have the tubal surgery it was, to my knowledge because the doctors THOUGHT it was a tubal, but when they took my tube out, they saw that it was only a cyst. That is what they told me… nice huh?

Anyways, back to what I was saying…

So, my cycles are a bit all over the place. I have been on pretty much every vitamin and supplement you can think of. I have tried all ovulation prediction tests, temped EVERY single morning to see when I would ovulate and put it all on a graph. Sure, I realized when I ovulated, but still was NOT get pregnant… hmmm.

So, I saw online the OvaCue Monitor and really really wanted to give it a shot. Afterall, I have tried everything else. I contacted FairhavenHealth.com and they agreed to letting me review one! Oh the joy I was feeling, seriously, this was so awesome…

I received it in the mail and since you have to start using it on cycle day 2 of  your cycle, I had to wait a few days. My OvaCue Monitor came with the Vaginal Sensor, which is a MUST I am finding out, to use with your OvaCue monitor for extra accurate results. The Vaginal Sensor does not come with the OvaCue Monitor but can be bought separately.

When cycle day 2 came along (finally!!! Ugh..) I programmed the monitor to how long my average cycle length was. Then I made sure the Oral sensor was plugged into the monitor and pressed the O for Oral Sensor, and placed it on my tongue. You wait for a second or two and then the reading is complete. You save it and you are done. It takes a few seconds each morning to do. You then can wash the oral sensor with mild soap and water and dry it for next use. You must use this oral sensor around the same time every morning for accurate results and you must do it upon waking up. That means no brushing your teeth or drinking anything!!! I keep this by my bed, so it is there each morning as a reminder when I get up. But then again, my brain is programmed for me to do this every  morning, because I am always thinking about it…. that is what happens when you have been ttc for over 2 years..

When you are done with your menstrual cycle, usually around cycle day 7, you can start using the vaginal sensor. You use this in the evening, around the same time, each day. You simply plug-in the vaginal sensor into the bottom of the monitor. Next you press the “V” for vaginal sensor and insert the sensor into your vag. Then you press next and it will take your vag reading. If you have intercourse, don’t use this for at least 7 hours, as the spermies might make for an inaccurate reading. Sometimes it says your reading is over “400″. If that is the case, you will need to redo the reading. This happens from time to time, but you just redo it and it only takes a few seconds too. Then, just press save!

Now at first your calendar days will be white, but as you take your oral and vaginal readings each day, they will start to change in color. From white to light blue, to medium blue then dark blue then a pink box (ovulation had occurred when you see the pink box, usually). From time to time you MIGHT also get a purple box in between your pink box. IF that happens, that means you could have tried to ovulate but did not, or maybe you have dropped two eggs. I have had a few questionable moments with my Ova Cue monitor, since getting it, and I have signed up over at their public forum, and have my questions answered right away! I LOVE that supportive forum. It has everything you need to know about OvaCue and plus other members share their experiences too. I have learned so much.

Yep, this is only HALF of ‘em (from last month…)

 

This is my second cycle using this monitor and I am loving it. It has really shown me more about my cycles, that I could have missed. It can tell you up to 7 days when your ovulation will occur, giving you ample time to get that baby dancing in!!! This monitor can help take stress off of trying to conceive and let you relax a little bit more. Plus, the accuracy level of the OvaCue Monitor is 98% while others are only 73-94%, so that is nice.

Great Features:

  • FDA-approved and recommended by fertility specialists
  • Simple to use and mess free with no additional purchases necessary
  • Track your cycle daily with the calendar-view display
  • Predict your ovulation up to 5-7 days in advance
  • Confirm ovulation with the vaginal sensor

So, if you are trying to conceive I would highly recommend the OvaCue Monitor. This month I also took my first round of Clomid and will be having my first IUI! Wish me luck!

Buy!

You can purchase the OvaCue Monitor online at http://www.fairhavenhealth.com/

Win!

One lucky trying to conceive individual is going to win their very own OvaCue Monitor Bundle (that includes the vaginal sensor too!!)

How?

Easy! Just use Rafflecopter below!! woot!

Disclosure:
I was sent product to review, these are my own personal experiences and thoughts with this monitor, thanks!

Guest Post: 10 Things Not to Say to Someone Trying to Conceive

By ·

This is a guest post written by Kelly from Texas Type A Mom

 

Like Kim, I suffered a miscarriage in December.  I was extremely upset about the abrupt end of my pregnancy but gained new determination in my quest to conceive again.   I have a type A personality and have this innate drive to plan things.  I don’t like to leave things up in the air but come up with a game plan.  This served me well in deciding when to start trying for my now 2.5 year old daughter and again the pregnancy I miscarried.  Miscarrying was a shock in itself but not getting pregnant again right away after seven months of trying came as almost an equal shock.  You can do everything you know how to do to get pregnant and your body can still betray you.

In my struggles to conceive again I’ve gotten lots of support and advice.  Most of it coming from a good place but some of it has been so misguided, insensitive, and off base.  Here’s my list of the top 10 things not to say to someone that’s trying to conceive.

  1. “Don’t worry, it’ll happen eventually.”
  2. “You’re still so young.”
  3. “Why be greedy?  Can’t you just be happy with the child(ren) you already have?”
  4. “Things will happen in their own time.”  Or the variation, “things will happen when you least expect it.”
  5. “Maybe it’s just not meant to be.”  Really?
  6. “Relax.  You’re just trying too hard.  Stop trying and it’ll happen.”
  7. “Have you thought about adopting?”
  8. “Everything happens for a reason.”
  9. “If it’s meant to be, it’ll be.”
  10. “Maybe you’re not doing it right, maybe you’re trying to hard or not trying hard enough.  Maybe you should look into acupuncture, specialists, herbs, tests, treatments, etc.”

A better comment if you don’t know what to say or unsure of how your comment might be perceived by the person who’s having a hard time getting pregnant, try saying something like, “I’m sorry you’re going through this.  I’m here for you if you need to talk.”  Conveying support and sympathy can mean the world to someone that’s fighting with their whole self to create a new life.

This Just Sucks.. It Really Really Does…

By ·

I am not allowing comments on this post entry only because I don’t want any of you to think I am always complaining or sulking in my trying to conceive journey. This is more of a post for me, to just scream and yell and make myself feel better…

Well, I am going on 26 months of trying to conceive. It has been a LONG, hard road and I seem to have not come anywhere near an end, in sight. I have been to the fertility doctor, got tons of blood work done. My body seems to be doing what it is supposed to be doing, but it is not coming together, to make a sweet little baby.

AGAIN, I thought this was MY month and AGAIN it is not. I am heartbroken, sad, depressed, lonely you name it, I am feeling it right about now.. I actually feel sick, sick that I can’t do it again.

What am I missing? What is my body not doing, that I am unaware of? For heavens sakes, I would HATE to think it could be my age, after all, I am 36 years old. But then, why would it be my age? Should I really not be trying to get pregnant at my age? Am I really an old person? I don’t know, I just  don’t.

You would NOT believe how much I spend each month on pregnancy tests, ha! You would all think I am mad, and maybe I am? I hope, pray, and do everything right for my body. I take care of it and do what I should be doing. Nothing every comes of it, ever.

Oh, well, ya it did, last November. And I was on cloud 2343743298543892348. But then God took this little sweet baby away, and left me empty and VERY bitter. I DID blame God, but don’t anymore, I don’t know who or what is to blame, all I know is that that sweet baby, like two other m/c’s I had, were stripped from my womb too early. NOT FAIR.

My sweet, miracle babies I have now, are so loved and I am SO. Thankful. for them. If I did not have them and their sweet kisses, hugs and support (along with hubbys) I would be a WICKED mess..

Anyways, maybe now that I have let it out, I MIGHT feel better tonight? Tomorrow? The next day? Who knows, but it was seriously worth a shot with the way I am feeling right now :(

Thanks for listening..

I Am Sad

By ·

I don’t know why, really. I am just sad right now. Maybe it is because I am not pregnant yet? Maybe it is because we have been trying to become pregnant for 2 years now? Maybe it is because a friend of mine is pregnant for the SECOND time, and in that time I have been trying to get pregnant too, unsuccessfully? Maybe it is because I DID get pregnant in that 2 years, only to lose that baby in January..

Maybe it is just EVERY ONE of those damn things..

Please, if you can hear me God, please help me to become pregnant once again. I promise to be as good of a mommy as I am to my sweet blessings now, as I would be to my third baby. I promise that I will not complain when pregnant, only embrace it with all its wonderful growing glory. I promise to eat right and drink as much water as my growing baby and me will need. I promise to love that sweet baby and give that baby sooooooooo many sweet mama kisses and ALWAYS believe in him/her.

Please God? Believe in me God, I can do it once again. I have done it twice (almost lost my daughter..), and in the process lost 3 sweet babies along the way, but God, I CAN do it, I PROMISE…

xoxo,

Kim

A Necklace I Received from a Sweet Blog Reader and Friend!!

By ·

I was in tears on Saturday, when I received a package in the mail from a dear friend and blog reader! She heard about my pregnancy loss, had recently experienced one herself (but now she is pregnant with a healthy little one!!!!) and she asked for my mailing address. I received a beautiful necklace in the mail from her. Me and my husband are so touched at the thoughtfulness in this.

Look at this necklace:

“You Left Footprints On My Heart”

Thank you so much, Jakell, for sending this to me! It really made my day, when I was feeling so down :( And many thanks to all my viewers who have commented and given me hope and prayers when I need it most! I appreciate each and every one of YOU!

I Lost The Baby…

By ·

THANK YOU FOR EVERYONES SWEET COMMENTS! I AM TRYING TO COMMENT TO ALL OF YOU INDIVIDUALLY, BUT MY BLOG IS NOT LETTING ME :( BUT, I WILL!!! THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!

Just wanted to let you all know that I lost my baby. Well, technically it has not been “lost” yet, just waiting to see if it does it on its own, or like the other two miscarriages I had, will have to go in for a d & c. The doctors think that I will have to have the d & c, only because they have been monitoring me for the past three weeks… Anyways, so that is what is going on.

Now I want to bitch about life and miscarriages and loss..

I thought that since I had already gone through 2 miscarriages, that this one would certainly be easier, right? Hell no. It is NEVER easy. EVER. If you have ever been through a miscarriage, YOU KNOW what I mean. I tried to take a nap when I got home from the doctor, and I kept waking up realizing, I am carrying a dead baby, waiting for it to be taken out of my body. My heart kept dropping as did my stomach. Then I would fall back asleep again only to wake up to the SAME feelings. Shit, I am depressed. Yep, this one is getting to me too. Yep, I feel this loss just as bad as the others…

Hubby is DONE. He wants NOTHING to do with trying again, EVER. I don’t blame him. Is that what I want? I am not sure. But I do know I can’t take THIS again… I just can’t. I am not young anymore. I am 36 years old, so time is certainly not on my side for baby making. Also, a fallopian tube was taken from me, yes, taken from me from a surgeon who said it WAS NOT necessary. That is another story and you can read that if you want to… So, age, and only one tube, I would say my chances of conceiving again are pretty SLIM. This pregnancy was a miracle. It took us 16 months of charting, temping, taking FertilAid AND using ovulation kits, to try and conceive this one. We actually took that month off and it happened… Then it died… Thanks God….

Am I bitter? Yep. Will I always be? Probably not, but right now don’t tell me things will be better. Don’t tell me to be happy for what I already have ( I will PUNCH you OUT, like I am not happy for my little kids…), don’t tell me it was not meant to be, AGAIN, don’t tell me God has other plans, Don’t tell me God does not give you more then you can handle….. The list goes on and YES, I have heard them ALL.

I hate that I am STILL feeling sick, morning sickness, I hate that my boobs are huge and hurt like hell…

And, you know all those tests that the doctors give you that usually ensure a healthy, viable pregnancy? You know, like the hcg number thing? Or that if you have good signs of morning sickness, you are good to go? NOT with ME. I have all those. My hcg numbers were AWESOME. The nurse even called me back to tell me this…

The baby just never grew. The sack did, just not the little fetal pole that floated motionless in my uterus. No h/b. As the three weeks went by and the nurses telling me that they see this ALL the time, I will be okay, with every u/s, always seeing the same thing. Just the sack.. no h/b… Whatever…

Of COURSE I had to see 753403458034583 pregnant women on my way to the upstairs office of the hospital, so that was real nice.

Anyways, I am not like this, so negative, but right now I feel like shit and I just don’t really care. I do want to thank everyone for their SWEET comments (thank you everyone for saying the RIGHT things!!) and I love you all. Reading through those comments had me BAWLING. It means so much to me, it really does..

I am going to hug my babies close and cry myself to sleep for the next few nights.

To some, this whole post might seem so dumb or some may say “why is she so upset over a MISCARRIAGE??” but, until you experience one you will NEVER know. I already loved this baby and planned on him/her. I even thought of names and bought some things. So ya, you don’t know unless you have been there and I hope if you have not, you NEVER do.

Thanks for listening

Morning Sickness GALORE!

By ·

pregnancy week by week

Yep, have that morning sickness and it is hitting me hard! Though I will not complain, because I know it means baby is growing good with symptoms this strong. But, it is still very hard taking care of two little ones and feeling this nauseous all the time.

I go in Thursday for another u/s as the u/s I had last Friday did not show me much. So, I get the real deal u/s on Thursday and that little one of mine better be out and that heart better be beating good and strong. I already love this little one so much. Having two previous losses, it makes enjoying my pregnancy, in the beginning, very hard to do!

Anyways, I just wanted to update with my life and what is going on with me :) My giveaways will be slowing down a bit in January to give me time to feel better and come February it will be back in full swing. I just need a break! We all need a good break once in a while. I will still be blogging, but not a bunch of giveaways is all. We shall see who still reads my blog, eh? :) See who those loyals really are! Hehe :)

Anyways, check out my newest giveaways, though not many, they still ROCK!

Also, if you have ever been pregnant and had morning sickness, how do you make yourself feel better? This is what the doctor suggested to me…

*Take 1/2 Unisom tablet every 12 hours for nausea
*stop taking prenantal vitamins until I am about 10 weeks
*Take vitamin B6 twice a day
*Drink lots of water
*Eat Saltine Crackers

Those are what MY doctor suggested to me, you of course, need to consult your own doctor for your specific needs.

What suggestions do you have to share? I want to know ;)
And if you are pregnant, don’t forget to check out all the REALLY cool pregnancy tickers and widgets I found! Some of them I never have seen before!
