Update

I know that it has been a while since my last real update...
Here is the news on the fertility front:
I am not preggers yet. I did however, start the fertility drug Clomid. I found out from my Dr. that i wasn't ovulating, I know I was thinking the same thing, how can you have a period and not ovulate, but I guess it can happen. The Clomid is what kick starts the ovulation process. Let me just say that I have never experienced such horrible hot flashes in my whole life!!!! They are bad. Besides the hot flashes I love Clomid.
I used to take ovulation tests and never get any results at all. The test line would be there, but no result line...EVER!!! After following the Dr's. orders I started taking the tests on day 11. Low and behold there was actually a result line. It was faint, but I could definitely see the second pink line:) I tested every morning and finally on day 20 the lines were the same color!!!!!!!!! I took a picture and sent it to Shelby and my sister. I called my mom and my friend Jen. I then ran down the hall to show my other friend Marcus. I know it sounds crazy, but I was so excited that I was actually ovulating that I wanted everyone to know. When you take those tests and there are never any results and then one day there is it is the best feeling in the world. I wanted to share it with everyone.
As much as I want to get pregnant this month has been a great break through month. If I'm not pregnant at least I was ovulating and the Clomid is working. I couldn't be happier! Now we just have to wait and see if this is the month. Praying everyday!
