I caught up on some of my shows last night - season finale to brothers & sisters. I love that show. I think I mentioned it on here before, but it really does infertility (and loss) some justice. The main character has been through one m/c, one failed IVF - no embies for transfer, and now she and her DH are thinking about adoption.
Last season they had IUI with donor sperm due to severe male factor. The girl got pregnant with twins. Unfortunately, she lost one of the babies at birth. This caused some issues between her and her DH and it caused them to separate for awhile. This show is so great on many levels. I love that they talk about 911, the war, Iraq, politics, elections, and LIFE.
I was crying through it. AF is surely on her way as I'm so emotional.
I get to see my parents this weekend. I'm excited!!
I'm taking it easy today at work since I worked a long day yesterday. I better get back to it, I haven't done much all day.
I got to go for a long walk on Sunday and ran a little bit. It felt really good. I love walking - it really helps my mind sort out stuff.

About Me
- J
- I am 36 and my husband is 36. We got married at 32yo and started trying at 33yo. We tried to get pregnant for 2+ years. We did IVF and were successful. Unfortunately, we lost our son at almost 16 weeks due to an incompetent cervix. We got pregnant again on a break cycle (no IVF) and we have our son after many months of self imposed bedrest. This blog is for me. I write about various topics from my experience. I try to be politically correct as much as I can be. I'm from the south so my opinions spew out of my mouth sometimes. :) Thanks for checking out my blog.

Poem - Author Unknown
"Whatever your cross, whatever your pain, there will always be sunshine, after the rain....
Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall;
But God's always ready, to answer your call....
He knows every heartache, sees every tear, a word from His lips, can calm every fear...
Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night, But suddenly vanish, dawn's early light...
The Savior is waiting, somewhere above,to give you His grace, and send you His love...
Whatever your cross, Whatever your pain, God always sends rainbows ....After the rain ... "

"When you lose a parent, you lose your past. When you lose a pregnancy or child, you lose your future, your hopes, and your dreams. And most of the time, you have no memories to hold onto."

I haven't seen that show and I'm not sure why. I feel like in order to start watching it, I need to start from the beginning. Maybe someday I will- it seems to be a good one.
I was totally balling when i watched that the other night! i thought they were talking about me! although a condensed version! But i am glad they iddnt sugar coat the process! and showed "true" feelings!... I cant wait til next season to see how they go about portraying the adoptin process..
