Update... It's Been To Long!

Hey everyone,


I know I haven't been around much in the past two months and I apologize. I mean I do have a valid explanation for it... Its a practical one. Really...

First the girls finished school and started camp and it was an awesome 6 weeks... wrong.. it was alright for the first two and then I got the call that would make any parent cringe, CAS wanted to make a visit Why!? You ask well here is what happen: I set my girls to school and DD#1 has Autism and ADHD, well she is a special one I tell ya, she decided to mention she was hungry, my kids HATE breakfast in the morning so I send them with extra snacks to get them through the day. Anyway, as I was saying, she mention she was angry to one of her Camp Leaders and that Camp Leader i guess had a problem with the way she dressed, mind you I don't send my kids in rags, but she did and then she came to the conclusion we had no food in our home and we were starving our kids. Well let me tell you when I got this call how LIVID I was. It was like seriously, she is always hungry and she never stops eating...if I don't put my foot down she would eat me out of house and home but really I was crazy mad and I went picked up my girls from Camp and got a hold of the principle running it and she was like "I am so sorry, the call was made before I could explain to the girl about Hailie." the principle knows my girls very well, we have a great relationship. Anyway they came and did there investigation and this girl seemed genuine. I mean we believed her when she said that she didn't have any concerns and everything was great at home and that there may be a few things we need to fix... like our mattress is on the floor with our a bed frame because it broke and we aren't sleeping on it but for reasons I had to split up my girls sleeping arrangements so, because DD#1 is sleeping on our mattress in our room we need to get another bed frame. Anyway, after two weeks and the annoyance of this girl just trying to find something wrong with our parenting, she finally closed the file. That was a great sigh of relief... I tell ya this parenting thing is not easy but we try our best!

Moving On......

So, that was one of the reasons I haven't been around for the last 2 months. You see it's time for a fertility update:

So, as I started in my last update May Recap, I updated you regarding my cycle.. well May 30th they started me on CD3 and on my Femara 5mg for cycles day 3-7. I went back June 9th to measure my follicles and to my surprise 1.7 and 1.9cm. I was thrilled. They told me I should ovulate within the next few days. Well I did the next day June 10th I ovulated!! OMG!! I was thrilled. Of course we BD and I took an easy the rest of the weekend but it was great to know that this could be it. I tested the next day and knew my TWW was starting and I was scared and nervous but I knew that if it was meant to happen it would. Well I am proud to say that June 21st 11dpo I found out we were expecting out RAINBOW baby and I was ecstatic. We are currently 11 weeks and I am finally almost over the horrible morning sickness... I can't eat dairy, meat or anything else that smells except for pickles!!

April 2016 Recap

Apr. 8th, 2016:

Today we had out appointment with our Fertility Specialist and a plan was laid out. We did Kerotyping/Chromosome testing so, as long as everything comes back normal, the plan is as follows:

Start Preg-vit and Baby Aspirin ASAP
  • CD1:    Call in and book blood work and ultrasound for CD3
  • CD3:    Hormone Blood Work and Ultrasound, plus start Femara. 
  • CD3-7: Femara 
  • CD7:    Start testing for ovulation 
  • CD10:  Ultrasound 
Ovulation Cycle Day?? and then on CD21 we start Provera internally as precaution and help the embryo to attach properly to my Lining and testing at 12DPO.

If the first cycle fails next cycle will be with IUI. 
-------------------------------------------------

Plan B if tests come back abnormal is to do IVF.

We had DD's EEG today. She did amazing!! Did not need any medication to be relaxed. Allowed the nurse to do the test without moving... Thank Goodness for iPads and good thinking Mommy right!? 
-------------------------------------------------

Apr. 28th, 2016:

We got the results everything came back fine with the EEG but unfortunately we still don't know what is causing her blackouts. We do have a scheduled MRI and we have to go and do some genetic testing on her to see if there is anything we haven't ruled out yet.

GYNO/OBYGN Dr. Appointment & CD1

Feb. 25th, 2015

 Today I met the second person in my journey to baby and that was the Gyno/Obgyn that will be taking me on from now, when i achieve pregnancy and then till 12 or 13 weeks. She was nice and the team she has working there is awesome. We discuss what her plans were for me and what she wanted to do before I got pregnant. She wanted me to do my Cycle Monitoring and for those who don't know what that is, basically when you receive CD 1 -which is your first Full Day of bleeding- you call the nurse line and let them know and they will call you back and tell you to come in first time so, 7am CD2 to get blood and an ultrasound. Then she also want me to have a Hysteroscopy - which is where they place a thin camera and a bunch of water of your vagina, into the uterus to get a good look at your insides to make sure there is no scare tissue, blockages, pulp-ups, or fibroids.  I also have a number of blood work to get done and my husband and I have genetic testing at the Hospital to do as well. Follow-up appointment to be scheduled. 


CD1 - 17th of March, 2015. Went for Ultrasound and Blood work. Results unknown. 

Hysteroscopy- 24th of March, 2015. According to the Male dr. that did it, my uterus is as smooth as butter and there is no blockage.

What just happened!?

Jan. 25th, 2015

So my youngest woke up last night around 1am in her sleep and looks kinda at me kinda forward towards our kitchen. At first I thought she was still sleeping and then she sat there for a good 7 minutes not saying anything just sitting there. I called her no response waited called her again and finally she looked at me and started talking juberish and then came over and started making more sense.
Essentially her "bad dem" was about a giant minion who got into the house and took her to Walmart came back and tried to eat Panda "her cat" and then ate her.
She's never really told me about a dream and she's only even done the unresponsive thing once before a few years ago. I know I should be concerned but seriously this was her first bad dream she could tell me about. I'm very impressed.

This didn't sit well with me so, I am taking her to her PEDS and getting her check-out. Once I told the PED. what happened he was very sure it was an absent Seizure and wants us to go for an EEG and see the Neurologist.
