The Dreaded Two Week Wait

Image
Anyone that has spent any length of time trying to conceive (TTC) knows that the dreaded two week wait (2WW) is the WORST!!  Were we successful?  Should I take a test? Is it too early? What will I do if it's negative? Do I test again? You can pretty much make yourself crazy with the waiting and wondering. So for the next two weeks or so I will be doing a lot more posting to distract myself during this psychological insanity. This Type A, OCD mama needs to keep busy! Lol I will be posting about all sorts of things in an attempt to keep my mind occupied. I have a haul, review, empties, etc on the beauty end. I will have parenting, pregnancy, family stuff, as well as recipes, DIY and home ideas. The randomness will be in full effect until test day. If anyone has any requests, comment below and I will try my best to do a post for you.

Blessed Family

After our first round of IVF in 2011 we conceived 2 babies but lost one early on.  We did however end up with a fantastic son born at 37 weeks. Fast forward to 2013 and our first round of Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) we conceived a little girl but sadly lost that pregnancy too in early July at 10.5 weeks. Devastated but determined to have another child we did our second FET in December and found out we were pregnant on my late mother"s birthday!  It was a complicated pregnancy to say the least with a bad subchorionic hemorrhage at just 5.5 weeks, and then SEVERE hyperemesis until I delivered at 39.1 weeks.  I no
