About Me

My photo
I met my husband about 6 years ago and we got pregnant about a year into our relationship. He is 4 now and such an amazing kid! We have been struggling to have a successful pregnancy for 2 years now, with 4 miscarriages all in the first tri-mester

What does it all mean??

TTC= trying to conceive

BBT= basal body temperature

HPT= home pregnancy test

OPK= ovulation predictor kit

BFP= big fat positive (what we want!)

BFN= big fat negative (what we loathe...)




What's been going on?

Dec 2004: Met Derek at a friends birthday dinner (and didn't like him lol!)

Feb 2006: Conceived Owen by surprise

Sept 22, 2006: Derek and I got married

Nov 6, 2006: Owen was born!

Nov 2008: Decide to TTC for #2

Jan 2009: Longest cycle ever, take HPT and got a BFP. Go to dr and find out we're mid miscarriage

May 2009: BFP!

June 2009: Go to DR for first OB appointment to find no heartbeat, off to hospital for D&C. Told to wait 3 months before TTC again

Dec 2009: BFP and one week later start bleeding, miscarriage #3

Jan 2010: Go in to see DR, check blood and all organs working well, and ovulating well.

April 2010: Another BFP. About a week later start bleeding again, miscarriage #4.

May 2010: Talk to my DR, has me wait 6 months before TTC again.

Sept 2010: Go to follow up with DR, has me start taking prenatal vitamins, baby asprin and progesterone 48 hours after ovulation (to take until my cycle starts, or reach 13 weeks in a pregnancy)

March 7th 2011: BFP!!!!! (over the next few days I ended up taking 4 tests to be for sure positive)

April 4th 2011: First OB appointment... saw lil baby on ultrasound and STRONG heartbeat of 175 bpm.

June 27th 2011: Second ultrasound, we're having a lil boy!

Slowly, but surely.

I'm down another 2.2, which puts my WW total to 7.2 pounds gone. No, it's not coming off as fast as I'd like, but it's coming off. I would like to close my eyes and have it all be gone, that's not gonna happen though! I've made it to the gym consistently and have upped my cardio. I'm now doing 60 minutes on the elliptical, and 45 of running (alternating days of cours). My mom and sister both have said they can see me getting slimmer already, which is great to know that when the scale barely budges, I'm still losing inches. In fact, I'm now down 7.75 inches! I love that! 3 inches from just my waist... I have had a little set bak though. As a reward for Owen being good, I took him to The Rock for lunch. I should've known better than to eat their pizza, but I did it anyways. So, this morning I woke up to go to the gym, and I was up 2.9 pounds!!! Not happy at all. After my work out, I had dropped .8 of that, but now I feel like I'm back peddling. NO MORE ROCK PIZZA!!! It's like it's made of lead or something...
