New hope

New hope – or should I say a false hope … this is the first month after the failed fet, I prayed a lot to get pregnant this month. I thought God approved.

This month I had many questions asked to God, not all answered yet but I felt his peace and his presence a lot.

Unfortunately I am falling in despair again, this is my second sleepless night. Maybe because I am expecting my period in 5 days, I am having all its painful symptoms and this is getting me down.

Also I heard that one of the family girls who had a beautiful baby girl last year doesn’t want to come to our house because she fears diseases from our fur babies … well … this hurt A LOT.

Anybody passes by my blog … hopefully you Jesus … pray hard for me.

Hope and Faith

There’s a fierce battle in my mind, my heart and soul, many questions with no answers, I will write them down hopefully God will guide me.

– After my failed FET I already know that my love B’s cousin is expecting her baby next month, she got married after me”well they all did actually” but the thing is that she suffered from infertility for 2 years, yet, God was generous with her and gave her the gift.

– My cousin and my husband “B” friend both are pregnant for the second time. Again God was so generous with both of them. My cousin got pregnant just in one month when her husband was on a vacation and before traveling again God gave them “the good news” … again … he is so kind and generous … I need my miracle too. B’s friend had a miscarriage in the beginning of her marriage … yet … God gave her 2 babies instead … God … I need my miracle too

– Should I keep praying and be positive and claim my miracle … or should I give up, accept the reality and try to make my peace with it?

– Will God listen to me? Right now I am so angry, my mom is hurt for me, my husband is hurt for me. They both care about me so much and feel sad for me. I am their source of sadness, and for this I am angry

– Am I going to be a mom ever?

– Am I ever going to have a normal life? I got married after having many battles with blind dates and meeting so many jerks. Finally I married my miracle B … my wedding day was the best day in my life, and I thought I will see the line “lived happily ever after” and didn’t know I will suffer infertility for 4 years. God please answer me, am I going to have a normal life ever.

– I want B and mom to be with people again, for the past period I couldn’t be with people.

FET #1 Summary

So … it turns out that all the tremendous symptoms I had this cycle were pure progesterone side effect. Had the blood test today (beta) and it was NEGATIVE.

Strong headache, nausea, fatigue, tiredness, sleepiness, hunger, gases (including vaginal), vivid dreams, strong twinges in the right side, light twinges in the left side, AF cramps, white cotton discharge in urine.

Alllll are from progesterone.
