well, not only were we taking a fertility treatment break, i guess i was taking a blogging break as well. oops. it's amazing that over 2 months have gone by since my last post. it's also hard to believe that it's already june. particularly hard to believe given the fall-like weather we've been having. grrr. the month of may was slightly deceiving since we actually had nice weather. true seattlites always say that july 5th is the start of summer out here, so here's to pants and sweatshirts for a few more weeks. blah.
unfortunately no new news on the baby front. i had actually been doing okay with letting go a little. then we hit the 2 year mark. no [known] fertility issues and yet here we are, 25 months into ttc (trying to conceive) without even the slightest hint of a positive pregnancy test. it's mind boggling (or as luke quotes, "mind bottling"). needless to say, it was a slightly emotional milestone; one that i most likely just thought too much about. but all the same, it sucks. i'm at a loss these days. i was randomly looking up something the other day which led me to fertility something or another which led me to statistics that quoted how you're considered "infertile" if you aren't successful after ttc for a year. boo. i also read percentages and it was something like 85% of couples get preggo within a year (um, not us) and 91% of couples get preggo within 3 years...hmm, hopefully us.
anyway, like most of my emotions, it's a rollercoaster and i'm feeling better now...
on a more positive note, luke and i celebrated our THIRD anniversary last month! it's amazing how quickly the last 3 years have gone by. i made a promise to him (and myself) to not let another year fly by, only focusing on a baby. it's a little saddening to realize that most of the year was spent focusing on that. definitely needing more balance in my life..
well, here's to a more positive year.
pun intended.
