BFP: The big day

This post was originally written on Thursday, April 1st, when I got my BFP on the digital. I wrote this down because I knew The Captain wanted to keep it a secret for a while, but I wanted to share my thoughts. Just like my previous post…if you know me in real life please don’t post [...]

We Have A Bean!

Before I go any further I just want to ask that anyone I know in real life please do NOT post anything on facebook regarding what you read in this post. I wanted to share with my readers because they have been on this long journey with me. Thank you!

Well dear readers I have been [...]

TTC Statistics

I recently got word from a contact at Fairhaven Health of a survey being done at Early Pregnancy Tests.com that was getting to the bottom of many questions regarding Trying to conceive. They called the survey a “Profile of a “typical” TTC woman”. Don’t  you think that is a great topic? I found the results [...]

Remembering To Live

Captain Awesome and I decided a little less than a year ago that we wanted to start a family. With just that one little statement so many other things got set into motion. We had plans. But now, looking back, the words of my doctor now come back to haunt me “when people plan [...]

Sucker Punch to the Gut

I experienced a bit of a sucker punch today when I looked at the calendar and realized that January is almost over. This means that had I not had a miscarriage this past summer, I would be EXTREMELY close to my due date of February 13th. I can’t believe that it’s been almost [...]

Soundtrack of My Life

This may sound strange, but I sometimes like to think about what song would be playing at certain moments if my life had it’s own soundtrack. Like in the movies when there is a really happy moment, or a really sad one, they play a certain song that seems to tie it all together. I [...]
