I just can’t stand it any longer. Having two blogs seemed logical in the beginning… well, I guess it still is considering the content on this site (my dad does NOT need to know about my sex life!) but I find myself kind of in limbo. We started the “adoption” blog for friends and family. [...]

I’m at a loss. I am now faced with having to decide on an alternative to suppressing Endo as I believe my IUD must come out. I had BV again and a yeast infection and it can only be attributed to one thing… my IUD. It’s crazy because, had these symptoms happened in someone else, [...]

Well before I get to needles I guess I should give myself a pat on the back for finishing up my PT for Vaginismus! It was bittersweet for me…and I didn’t expect that. I really don’t think my therapist had any idea what she did for me…but it was profound. I found myself getting teary [...]

As I’m filling out my Preliminary Application I come across a question that I find very difficult to answer. Describe the characteristics of the child you believe would best fit into your family… How do you answer this?! Yes, there are traits I would love our child to have. But I want to be realistic [...]

So if I could just bottle a little bit of the excitement I experienced last night I would (as I’m sure I’ll need it for the rough patches ahead). The meeting went far better than I expected. It was a packed room full of people who I imagine share similar stories to ours. Some had [...]

Tonight is our first meeting about domestic adoption. We are still not sure if inter-country or domestic is for right for us…so this is a start. I’m staying away from negative stories about it because I want to start this journey out with excitement and hope (even though at the moment I’m watching a TV [...]

Went to pick up the prescription for Detrol. Left without it. I can’t pay $125 for something that “might” work. I’m paying enough for PT at the moment. Should I let my GP know I didn’t get it?

I’m preparing for my next appointment today with my GP to check on this bladder thing. I counted 15 trips to the restroom yesterday. Good times. So while I’m looking forward to getting things figured out, I realized I’ll once again be “examined” by yet another Dr. I have counted 9…NINE…different Drs that have been [...]

But I think there is still something going on with my bladder. Back when I had my surgery I had to have 2 catheters and was unable to urinate normally for weeks. I noticed this past summer that my urethral opening was rather red…and even my drs have noticed this. So far I’ve only been [...]

OK not really. While I appreciate having insurance, it has saved me lots of money I’m sure, but dealing with an insurance company is plain agony. I realize I have been seeing a fertility specialist, at first I thought I had PCOS and they could help me get pregnant. But as you know things took [...]
