So I started pre-natal vitamins today... hoping they help to kick my system into gear. AF is hiding as per the norm... I am hoping the doctor calls this week with my referral. The vitamins are huge lol.
We spent lots of money on groceries as well, I'm used my best judgment with our purchases as I still want to lose weight and stick with the gym. I've had the flu this week so I only got to the gym once. I'm hoping that when I wakeup tomorrow my head will feel better so I can do some cardio.
We had a nice weekend, went out friday with our friends to karaoke after we went and purchased new clothes. My jeans cost $65 because I'm 6ft1 so length is nearly impossible to get unless I spend extra. Dave looks so hot in his new outfit, *purrr*, lol. Saturday we did a BBQ for his father as he is back in woodstock, staying at the retirment home until they can get the house renovated for the lift and get it wheelchair friendly... they still haven't totally decided weather their going to renovate or build a new home.
Then after that we visited with some friends, came home and woke up today, did the groceries and hubby sanded the dining room table which looks absolutely beautiful!!! So overall its been a nice weekend, hoping the week is just as nice.

Well, there's not to much to update today. I've had some odd blood preassure issues the last two days, don't really know what that's about, but if it happens again tomorrow I'm going to get checked.
Still no AF, and no call from the Dr's office.
I'm kind of blah today... rather tired. I hate waiting LOL. That's about it for now hehe.
Gnight

rambles....
So, about a month and a half ago a friend approached me about adopting a baby from a friend of hers who is pregnant. I know this woman, we occasionally meet at get togethers or karaoke. I have her on my facebook ect. She has two other children and doesn't believe she can handle another, which is mature of her, and I respect her for admitting that the baby would be better off being adopted. But I have conflicting feelings about the entire thing.
I have been approached a few times about adopting and about seragent mothers, people offering ect. I have an issue with it because I know that they mean the best, but the fact of people finding it so easy to approach me about it is mind boggling. I get angry when I think about it. I think its because they're not hearing that I have PCOS, I still have a chance to bare a child, its just going to take longer and take some help from the Dr. I'm not sterile! (although there are some people who are and I count my blessings to even have a chance) I think its ignorance (not being educated on the subject of infertility) that leads people to these assumptions... which makes me angry. It doesn't fill me with much confidence either. It would be better for my friends to concentrate on supporting the efforts we're making towards becoming pregnant than trying to solve the entire thing by them having a baby for us. I truly know they only have the best intentions with their suggestions, but come on people... I'm a woman who's been trying to have a baby for 5 1/2 yrs now, don't you think I've thought about the what if's ands' & buts' ect...?
Anyways, the lady that's pregnant, she found out she's having a boy, and I can't help but feel sad that he's being given up for adoption... my perspective is that you'd find the resources somehow to support the third child. I'm not in her shoes, and I can see wanting the baby to have a better life than the one you can offer, but it still upsets me. And I think its because I haven't had a child yet and we want one soooo bad... and here she is totally opposit, having a child and knowing she can't care for it the way he deserves to be cared for and giving it up for adoption.
I don't know, always kicks me into deep thought...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I had a wonderful daydream yesterday while I was outside thinking of how chilly it was getting. In my dream I was playing with a little girl in a pink jacket, my daughter, she was showing me something she had picked up off the sidewalk and I was explaining to her what it was... It was a nice daydream and actually made me smile when I thought about it right afterwards... hopefully one day that will happen...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hadn't heard back from the DR reguarding my referral yet so I called today and was told that referrals can take upto 3 weeks before I hear back... one more week to go... argh. I really want to get started on things. I have been working so hard at eating the right things, taking my folic acid, working out at the gym... and now AF won't even show up. But that's why, cause I've changed my diet and exersize, well that and I have PCOS lol. I'm about to burst waiting to meet this new Dr. But I guess I have no choice but to wait.
Well that's all my ramblings for now. Take care!

Waiting...
Well, I am still waiting for the Dr's office to call with the referral. I think that if I don't hear back by thursday I may call there to check on it and touch base. I wanna get rollin on this baby thing again, and I can't do it without help. lol You know what I mean hehehe...
In the meantime I am working on eating better and going to the gym more. I am thinking positive again and am rather excited about trying femera... hopefully it gets perscribed to me.
I joined soulcysters.com for support and like minded women. I also joined sparkpeople.com for healthier eating and dieting. I tell ya, even just changing to fruit smoothies in the morning has helped with energy. I've also purchased tea. But now I want to research the correct tea to be drinking, I can't remember what it was. I am effectivley trying to keep myself busy while I wait for the dr's call.
I'de also like to learn how to meet more people on this blogger thingy... I'll figure it out sooner or later...
I hope all is well.

So ít's been a while sinse I've been here.
The fast update...
- We burried David's mum in may
- We lost a close childhood friend the week before that
- The week after his mum's burial his father was in a severe trucking accident, leaving him paralized from the waste down, ucky to be alive.
- My mum and brother have finally moved out of our place, we've slowly started painting and getting things setup to our liking.
On the fertility route...
The dr I was seeing, who did my lap exam, is no longer in the province (sine june 21st apparently), she's been banned from practing here due to mal practice law suites... 4 of them. We just found out last week. So I've seen my family physician and we are being referred to a new Dr. The new Dr. is male, the first male I've had, the other two were female, so we're hoping third times the charm.
My previous dr put me on avandia, which didn't do anything really accept give me headaches everyday. So when we meet Dr. Martin we're going to request metformin and fermara (as clomid gave me bad side effects). I don't think our previous dr screwed up on me, but I need to get checked just in case... wish me luck please.
Now seeing that I have PCOS, I am slowly trying to get into better eating habits, I have been going to the gym more freaquently and I've been taking my folic acid. I would like any help possible to guide me in the right direction for eating. If you've been on a successful diet, can you share your secret? I don't like many veggies at all, and I find it so much easier to grab a cookie instead of an apple... how did you change your ways? I'm begging for any tips lol.
I hope all is well,
