Sweet summertime

Hi, all! I know I haven't updated much, but right now there just isn't much to update on. I wish there was. I started af yesterday. I used oils his past cycle so a small part of me was really hoping they would help me get pregnant. LOL. I can tell you that one of the oils does really help with my cramps though.I just rub a drop or two on my abdomen and then I have a decrease of cramps. We have a little over 3 months till our adoption seminar and it is a two day class. The older I get the more times flies. It seemed so far away, but now it is coming up close. Last week was my due date of the little bean I miscarried. I did pretty well. Of course, I don't sit here and dwell on it, but sometimes I think about it. It made me a little sad to think I could be holding my baby instead of still sifting through infertility land...but we pick up the pieces and we move on. We become stronger and wait for God's timing and the little blessing(s) he has for us. One day we will look back and wonder how we made it through this journey through "hell" at times. At times, I do wonder how we make it. We just do. We pray, love each other, and become stronger in our faith. We deal with situations, judgement from others, and heartache constantly. Here we are though...still going strong and better than ever. You know why? Because, when you want something bad enough you keep fighting for it! No matter the judgement, people who talk about you, or what you have to do to get it. I am well aware of family who have judged our choices and paths we have taken to try to build a family, but until you walk in our shoes then you really have no idea. :)

  1. I am so sorry for your loss, I was there also a week ago, but it sounds like you handled it well considering. Looking forward to reading about the current journey you are on. You are in my prayers :)

  2. so good to see you writing again :) I know someone who struggled with Infertility for YEARS and was getting ready to embark again on another round of IVF but her doc told her she should try to lose weight first before she spent the cash...so she spent from December until March losing weight (lost the minimum amount) and then went in for her blood work in March to find out she was pregnant!! She was shocked! SHe doesn't have regular cycles so she didn't think anything of it that she hadn't had one. Anyway, the only thing she changed differently was using essential oils. It was called Clary Calm. Then she just sent me another message saying her other BFF who has struggled just got her first BFP and she started using the oils. I say all of this to ask...what was the name of the oils you used? hehe! They both used it for about three months. love ya!

  3. Lisa, your time is coming! And, to all those nay-sayers, forget about 'em! They're not worth the stress.
