After one hellish week between Mike being gone, getting food poisoning, having yet another negative pregnancy test, starting my cycle and catching a cold/cough, I will be ending my week with round two of Clomid. My new Dr. wants me to take the pills day 3-7 instead of 5-10, so I am unsure if this will change any of my side effects, but I am hoping it doesn't. Now I am just gearing up for another week of hot flashes, nausea, fatigue and maybe a dash of craziness. At least Mike will be home tomorrow night, the house is clean thanks to Miss Marilyn and we both have Monday off. I just need to remember to breathe, that Mike is on my side and that the temporary pain and frustration is worth it for baby Ricci. Please cross your fingers that the new year will bring some new luck and that this is an easy round. Your thoughts, prayers and good vibes are what keep me going! That and hearing things like this...
spent a cherished evening with Miss Sawyer last night. Dinner time, bath time, cuddle and story time, then we fell asleep together at bedtime. What an amazing little girl....
Just picked my princess up from preschool and the kids and I are enjoying a picnic in the living room followed by ice cream sundaes. I love being a mom.
So grateful for my kids...love the way they can make me laugh, they are hilarious!
I just finished my make-up and my 3 year old boy says "Mom you're a girl now". I asked him if I was a girl before my make-up and he told me no.
Can't get enough of my Ky sometimes! He came down the hall in his diaper with my slippers on his feet...it was so adorable! Why does he have to grow up so fast?!
and ESPECIALLY this one...
The girls are so excited to welcome another little member to the family and we ALL can't wait to meet this little one whom we have waited a little EXTRA long for :-D
Thanks to some of my dearest friends for letting me steal your posts. These words and stories remind me how incredible the gift of motherhood truly is and not to give up because I will someday be experiencing these same priceless moments.

How is it possible that admist something so painful you are still able to teach and appreciate others? You're so strong, I send all my vibes, wishes, and hopes for you! You will be an incredible mother. Thanks for letting me share in your journey... :)
You are SO wonderful Lauren. I think this test of "patience" that you refer to will make you a better mom than most of us. When you figure out the secret, will you let me know? I'm thinking of you as I go through my own dose of "hot flashes, nausea, fatigue and maybe (more than maybe in my case) a dash of craziness." You are already part of the club lady! Good thoughts coming your way :)
Good luck Lauren! Scott and I think about you guys often and are really hoping and wishing this is your year! You are not only going to make each other happy when you get that big fat positive but I'm thinking you are going to make lots of people so happy! Think happy thoughts (and do it in the mornings, lol thats what worked for me) Love ya girl!
My fingers are crossed and I'm sending good vibes your way...always!
I am reading this, and it makes my heart ache! There truly is no other gift more beautiful than motherhood,and I am sure that somehow, some way that god will shine that miraculous light on you. Stay strong, and let me know if I can be of any support during this process!
