baby Baugh's room

We did not work as long today as I usually do, but we completed a butterfly (almost), a ladybug, and not pictured: a bee, a spider, a dragon fly and 2 caterpillars.

Infertility

I was talking with a friend today about her current pregnancy and she mentioned the drugs they had tried in the past for infertility. They were minor drugs for the arsenal I have taken and am about to start up again.

Hubby and I have struggled in our desire to have children for 6 years. I have always felt that being a parent was my calling, and to have tried for so long with no success cuts deep, but not as deep as the one time I did get pregnant only to have a miscarriage. So I have been thinking about this a lot for two reasons.

One, I pissed someone off recently, and their response was to tell me that they hoped I was happy being married and childless.

Two, we are approaching a new attempt. I am going to be a guinea pig. A new drug combination, including injectables and oral drugs. When I called the doctor recently, they informed me that by starting up right now means that if I make too many eggs we had discussed IVF, and that office is closed for the month of December. I am still going so that most of my internal sonograms - to check for ova size and development - will fall during Winter Break.

For those of you who are capable of being pregnant at any point, congratulations, and be aware of how fortunate you are. And for those of you who want to use this as a button to push, please keep the gloves up.

the bambina's room


I still have 2 more days: one to finish the grass and clouds and the other to paint bugs!! ladybugs and butterflies!!

what a relaxing vacation

Tuesday - started cooking for Thanksgiving, and tried to finish reading Twilight

Wednesday - cooked all day S3 read Twilight to me as I was cooking, and when I had a break I would read. S2 & BB came after their doctor's visit and the bambina is good. S4 was in AR hunting, but GF was there. I made GF spit tea out her nose. It was fabulous.

Thursday - an entire day with hubby! bought Christmas lights - compromised, had a panic attack about the Christmas lights, went to see 4 Christmases, went out looking at Christmas lights to try to figure out what we wanted our lights to look like.

Friday - another entire day with hubby! bought a tiara (who doesn't need one), searched for nonexistant Christmas lights, shopped, put up some Christmas light, couldn't climb on the roof, saw Twilight w/S3, talked to S4 & GF. End of 2 days with hubby.

Saturday - went to T,TX painted bambina's room and visited with DM. I miss DM wish I got to see her more.

I hope that tomorrow is less eventful, though with lesson plans, powerpoints and housework, I may need to wait until vacation is over to get some rest! :)
