Mother's Day

Another year has passed when I am unable to celebrate Mother's Day as a Mother or even as an expecting Mother. However, I try not to be miserable as I am lucky to have a lovely Mother who I can spend the day with and show my appreciation to her for all she has done for me and her continued support.

Since the clinic cancelled the IUI, Hubby and I decided to take matters into our own hands and we did the HCG trigger shot and had timed sex. At 7DPO I started taking the steroids and progesterone. Now, at 12DPO our two week wait is almost up and things aren't looking too hopeful - no symptoms and no line on a test.

So we have booked a private appointment with the clinic to start our 5th IVF cycle but the earliest one we could get is 1st May! We always have to wait for everything when time is not on our side! So while we are waiting we may do attempt #6 at IUI.

Before I got pregnant in September I was reading and practising The Secret, and I was feeling happier and more positive with my life. So I decided to start reading The Power, and I have The Magic ready as well. Surely any sort of positivity will help with all these set backs and disappointments. Mind you, it is already sending me a bit loopy as I've been chanting to myself again:  'I am pregnant, I am pregnant, I am pregnant, I am pregnant, I am pregnant, I am pregnant, I am pregnant ...'
