The journey of life doesn't always make sense sometimes huh.. I guess we just have to ride it out and take each day as it comes.

One more sleep Cynthia!!

Hi girls. Sorry for only checking in now, was a SUPER busy week.

Wow Cynthia!!! I am rooting for you big time! Two clear lines or "pregnant" on the next test!!!
Did you have any side effects on the Fertomid?

Honey am so sorry for the terrible loss and you have every right to feel your feelings as they come and dont try to be strong about it. But you know what? Your little girl knows you need a sibling for her and will nudge one from the heaven store house to come down and keep her mummy company sooner than you think.

I havent gotten the clearblu test, somehow I have mastered amazing restraint I m amazed at myself.

Hey Cynthia77

Funny you should ask.. Today is one of those emotional days for some off reason. well i think its because my hormones are in a shamble actually. I am done with provera (as of yesterday) and i await AF to show her face...

I think i am also feeling emo because December is my fav month of the year. its my birthday as well as christmas which i absolutely love and my wedding anniversary but last year December is when i had to terminate my pregnancy... So it brings an array of emotion and it is around the corner.. One year has passed sooooo unbelievably fast. its crazy...

To fill you in briefly, I was 20 weeks pregnant when we found out at our scan with the sonographer that there was a heart problem with the baby. You see at 20 weeks the heart is fully developed and thats why a sonographer checks everything... so anyway long story short, we had to see a pediatric cardiologist in JHB. The baby had Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.. it was 100% there and really really bad. No surgery could be done. there was no chance.. so i had to do the unthinkable...
anyway.. it will be 1 year on the 15 December when she was born. a beautiful baby girl...

So today is one of the bad days...

How are you doing?? did you get that clearvue test? if not, just wait until tomorrow if you can...
