It seems odd that I have been TTC now for about a year and a half. I have had two heart breaking miscarriages without any explaination.Since it had been about 7cycles from my last miscarriage, without anysuccess at getting pregnant,mydoctor decided to run a whole bunch of test at my last vist; nothing came of it. It seems weird not having an answer. But we still have hope and can't wait for our family to expand. I don't think I am at a point where I am ready to try fertility drugs, and my doctor has never suggested it either. But I recently moved and I will be finding a new doctor soon. Even though I loved my last doctor, I am hoping a new doctor might have some new insight.
Even though our family is small my husband and I are loving life and enjoying the journey that we've had over our 3 years of marriage.

. . update. . .
6.20.09 BFN
6.22.09 BFP ! (super faint)
6.23.09 BFP (a little bit darker, but not much)
I am really hoping this BFP is for real. I will test again when AF is due. Keeping my fingers crossed and sending my prayers to heaven.
6.23.09 start progesterone (prometrium). 200 mg at night, 200 mg in the morning
This is to help keep my uterin wall thick and progesteron levels higher, hopefully helping to keep the fetus growing. I also take one baby asprin a day.
6.25.09 BFP! definitely darker.
7.3.09 First Dr. visit with new Dr. Started me on high dosage of folic acid and took me off of the baby asprin. He kept trying to tell me according to his chart thatI was 2-3 days further alongthan I know I am . Oh well, it doesn't really matter, so I will keep my due date as it is till my early ultrasound.
7.8.09 Started having mild morning sickness
7.13.09 Morning sickness is horrible and won't go away
7.22.09 Will I ever feel better. . .
7.27.09 First Ultrasound. Measuring 8 weeks, 2 days
Hear beat 168!!! We are so excited!!!
8.12.09 Just got home from a family vacation. I did okay the first half, but the last 4 days I seem to throw up most of my meals. No fun. I am hoping that as soon as I get off of my progesterone supplements that it will help relieve some of my morning sickness. Which ironically enough I feel gross and nauseatedin the mornings, but my morning sickness hits hardest around noon and night time.
8.28.09 Went in for my check up. Nurse put the doppler on my belly and about 2 seconds later we heard the heart beat!! It was 160. The nurse predicts it's a girls; she said that for her she's always able to find the girls very quickly, and it takes awhile for the boys.
Dr. ordered a blood clotting test. It was missed in my lab work from my previous Dr.
I am still throwing up. Yesterday was a hard day. I think I am getting a little bit of a cold.
