Thanks so much. It still hasn't sunk in. I guess I'll go to my appointment Tuesday and they will probably do a beta.

Yep, and if anyone else wished me a happy one, I was going to lose it. I don't see why peole just assume that because your a woman you must have children. I don't see why they wouldn't reserve the comments for woman who have children with them...

Idiots.

Guess I'm just not in the best of moods.

Oh man, between being down about mothers day, and the provera racing through my body, I'm surprised hubby hasn't divorced me today! Hopefully AF will come soon, so I can start round 2 of Clomid, this time 100mg dose.

I agree about Mothers Day. It's hard every day, but that day is harder.

Provera gives me awful mood swings. Sometimes I can't believe how bad of mood I can get into. I haven't taken any of that for quite some time. I have actually taken a break from all of the medicine lately. I've done 6 or 7 rounds of clomid and am supposed to be taking metformin. I got out of the habit of taking the metformin but will remedy that soon I think. We are also sort of just on hold while we wait to get the hubby tested. We live in a remote location and have not been able to get the test done yet. We will probably get to that sometime soon as well.

We haven't given up on hope that I will eventually pregnant. I will say that I am starting to think about looking into adoption. Has anyone else looked into going that route?

We were supposed to go to our orientation to get licensed to foster/adopt shortly after the loss of my first pregancy. I cancelled it. I don't know what we'll do now. Hubby being ever optimistic thinks that we'll get pregnant again in no time. Me, the eternal pesimist has no idea what to think.

I was really looking forward to starting on the path to adopt a child, we've been trying for seven years for a baby of our own, and then we got pregnant, and then lost it. I am still kind of in shock. I'm trying to talk about adoption, but my head is just not there...

We started through an agency, the reason we were going the foster/adopt route is honestly because of money. It's very expensive to privately adopt, though there are grants, and now I understand there may be tax insentives?? don't know about that one though. So we haven't gotten very far in the process, but if you have any questions I'll try to help. I did talk, in length, with one off the case workers with the agency and she clarified a lot of questions I had, which at the time I can't really remember the main concerns or questions that I asked her...
