One thing I've learned...

One thing I've learned is that I have absolutely no control over anything when it comes to making babies.  Babies are miracles, and I defiantly leave this miracle to God's hands.  We are not able to try this month we just found out.  (well we can try at home all we want...haha).  When we went in for the doctor's appointment we went in and there were no eggs at all. There looked like a collapsed one on the left side, however, so they decided to do another blood test (yippee! Not.) The blood test came back and said ovulation already happened.  I was not super surprised. I follow their instructions and took the ovulation predictor kit starting when they told me, but it was too late.  I did get an almost positive on it, so I was thinking that maybe it would happen the next day.  I took one the next morning to make sure and it was still there, but a bit fainter.  At this point I was starting to wonder if I had already ovulated.  When we went in, it confirmed it.  The problem started when  I came back with a five last time on the pregnancy test and had to get retested. It threw everything off since they told me to keep taking progesterone.  It kind of messed things up to begin with this cycle, and once you are off on timing, you can't really get back on. gr... But there is nothing we can do. It is defiantly disappointing to hear this news.  There is a possibility that we could still have gotten pregnant on our own, but that would be a huge miracle. (Which they happen, I know, but I don't know if we are allowed more than one :) ). Basically they told us next time they will schedule the ovulation ultrasound a little earlier in the cycle so they can watch it closer and make sure they don't miss it again.  On the good side, they did not charge us the $200 for this visit, nor do I have to take the pregnancy blood test at the end of the cycle.  Words of encouragement? We could probably use some about now :) I was thinking that if we only had Matthew and no others of our own making, we are so thankful we got such a fun kid with so much spunk! Even so, won't stop us praying for another one; Matthew already has names picked out. :)

My boys....just becuase
