Me

This journey begins with a lot of excitement and fears, which was the reason for this blog when I started it in 2010. It was meant to be an outlet for me, but after only two posts, I quickly realized I was a far more private person than I thought. Three years later, we are still on this journey and a lot has changed. I've come to realize that sharing this very personal journey may not only help me, but may help another woman going through the same thing.

A little about me. I've endured a lot of heart-break growing up. Through heart-aches I've gained strength, courage, faith, and the ability to laugh. I truly believe with God, loving friends and laughter, any soul can heal. I'm a strong and positive person, but I can feel this journey is testing the very person that I am. I'm grateful to have awesome women in my life walking with me. I'm also blessed with an amazing husband. I've had to be strong a lot in my life, but he has taken that burden from me, and I just couldn't be more grateful to have him as my husband.

IUI Today!

I got up at 6:30am! I just couldn't sleep anymore. I'm so full of emotions, the most being incredibly happy and excited to finally be at this point. I feel hopefully and incredibly grateful this morning. I'm not allowing any fears to even enter my mind. I'm filling my mind and body with positive thoughts and energy. It's in God's hands and I trust the plan he has for me. The nurse even gave me a wonderful compliment and said my positive energy was refreshing. :) I can't stop grinning today.

The procedure wasn't too terrible. The nurse did have a hard time finding my cervix. She went through 3 different clamps and even had to leave to get advise from another nurse. I had to raise my leg in a very awkward position for her to find my cervix. It was uncomfortable, but not painful, which was a huge relief.

Now we wait. Wait. *sigh* I'm not good at waiting. I'm excited, nervous and anxious all at the same time. I feel very positive though. Why wouldn't this work, right? That's what I'm choosing to believe.
