As I sit here to write my very first blog post I can’t help but think about all of the events that recently happened to have led up to this point. Let me explain:
Twenty-Seven months ago my husband and I decided that adding at least one more to our family was what we wanted, so we began to try. When I didn’t get pregnant right away I was bummed, but just assumed it was because I was having an RA flare up, which was going to make things harder. I was wrong.
As the months passed, I became very concerned. We decided to take a short break , this was in an attempt to get my RA under control in hopes that it would help. It didn’t.
More months passed with no luck. My OBGYN couldn’t explain why, but I was stuck with the tag “UNEXPLAINED SECONDARY INFERTILITY.” Shortly after this diagnosis I met with a specialist; (soon after it was discovered that I have PCOS). This is when I decided to start my Instagram (@Ttcbabyelliott3). I thought that finding women that knew what I was going through, what I was feeling, the anger, the frustration, the grief, that maybe I could deal with things a little better. I was right.
Many of my followers on instagram were interested in what I had to say, they asked me if I considered starting an official Blog. Truth be told, this is something I have always wanted to do, but thought that I had nothing to say. Now I do, and here we are.
Currently I am on my TWW, with my second round of clomid. I am hopeful. I am hopeful every month, and will continue to stay hopeful.
