Still Waiting For My Sunshine…my journey with PCOS, infertility and now: twin pregnancy



October 8, 2010 – Back to Give Thanks and an Update

Let me start by saying “thank you, thank you, thank you!” to everyone for still checking in on me and thinking of me. I am so sorry that I “went away”. After the hospital drama (which I will tell you the ending of soon) I was so wiped out, I literally slept for weeks. Then “lovely” Time Warner Cable couldn’t fix my internet when it went out for almost 2 months, and still won’t compensate me properly (but that’s a story for another blog – I’m just upset that they have a monopoly here in NY, and my building is only wired for them). Then I went back to work teaching in September – which knocked me out- so the doctor now has me on modified bedrest and I now can fill you all in.
I am very happy to share that DH & I are still pregnant (19 weeks now) with twins. Those two little embies hung on through everything they were put through. I feel so blessed. I won’t lie, that having gone through all that we did to get here, I am a nervous wreck which I’m sure isn’t good – but I can’t help it. Every little pain, change – anything- and I start to worry. But overall, I am so elated and thankful.
I understand that it isn’t always easy reading about pregnancy issues when you’re trying so hard yourself to conceive, so I understand if not everyone’s gonna want to keep reading now that I’m back. I hope and pray every single person gets to where I am right now. I’m sure, as I’ve read from others who have gone on to get BFP’s that pregnancy after infertility is very different-so hopefully my blog now can transition to something about that.
Seriously – lots of love to you all. I will do my best to keep you posted – xoxoxo.
