Back on....

So after a lot of crying, frustration, talking to Tricare, and arguing with the billing office at the doctor's office we have decided to change doctor's.  I knew that I was right about what should be covered and what should not be covered.  I was just not willing to pay for things I have coverage for.  I also don't want to go to a doctor who is not willing to go out of their way for me.  So we are going to see another doctor.  I have taking Clomid again this month,  I won't be monitored, but I also have my shot of Ovidrel.  The only problem is I don't know how big my follicles are or if they are ready to be released, but I going to take it tomorrow.  It's along the same time line that I took it last month and I'm using ovulation test to see.  I hope this works so that I don't have to go through the IUI's and IVF's.  I'm praying.  I'll keep everybody updated on how it's going.

Happy Veteran's Day

  I wanted to take time today to say Happy Veteran's Day to my dear husband.   Today is a day to remember all the veterans past, present, and future.  Most importantly those who made the ultimate sacrifice.  I also want to say Happy 235th Birthday Marines!  Yesterday was the Marine Corp birthday.  Here are some pictures of my veteran.

(While he was in Afghanistan.)


(The morning he left with Mollie and Dixie.)

Remember if you see a veteran today go up to them and thank them for their service.  

A bump in the road

Well the first, and possibly the last, round of clomid didn't work.  We've also hit a bump in the road.   I went in for an ultrasound just to make sure that I wasn't pregnant and they told me that this would be the last appointment that Tri-care would cover.  So where do we go now?  Do we keep trying the Clomid with the feeling that I have endometriosis and the Clomid won't really work because of it? I don't know what to do. I am going to into the Tri-care office on Monday to see if there's anything else that we can do and why they won't cover my appointments just because I've started taking Clomid.  Maybe I  misunderstood what they said they would cover but this doesn't make any sense to me.  I just don't know what we're going to do.   I'm looking for a job but we need to pay some bills down so we can buy a house when we move to FL.  We need to sale the house that we own.  I am just beside myself right now.  I'm feeling pretty hopeless right now.  I hope I can get something done on Monday.  I'm also hoping that there was some kind of miscoding done and they will cover my appointments and and ultrasounds and we'll pay for the meds and treatments.

Still Waiting.....

I'm still waiting to see if AF comes or not.  I have a bad feeling that it will.  BOO!!!  I just feel pretty yucky today.  I guess only time will tell.  I have to say I'm pretty disappointed even though I knew it probably not work the first time.  I think I may have gotten my hopes up a little.  I'm just exhausted of trying, and hoping, and wishing, and praying.  I know it will happen when it's suppose to but I'm really tired.  Part of the reason I'm so frustrated is because when we finally start to get some headway we have to move. We'll be moving soon and I hope it will happen before we leave so I don't have to start all over.  I guess we'll find out on Friday.  Time seems to be ticking by so slow.

Happy Birthday My Love!!


Yesterday was my husband's 32 Birthday.  Happy Birthday Muffin!!  I surprised him with tickets to see Jay Leno.  We had so much fun.  This is the second time this week or ever that I've gotten to go to a taping of a talk show.  I Love It!!!! It has to be one of the coolest things I've done since we've been in CA.  We got to see Anne Hathaway, Brian "The Beard" Wilson (pitcher for SF Giants), and Aaron Neville.  I do have to say that I like The Tonight Show better then Lopez Tonight.  Jay was just more personable and nicer.  He talked to the audience and interacted with us and George seemed like he didn't want to be bothered.  Here's a picture of the two of us.

  In baby news, I had blood work to check my progesterone today.  I'm waiting to hear back from from the doctor to see if it's normal.  More waiting.  All this waiting is about to drive me crazy.  Only 8 more days until I hope to get a BFP but I'm not getting my hopes up.  I am fully prepared for it to take more then one time to work.  I'm hoping it won't but I'm preparing myself for it to so I don't get heartbroken and hopeless again.

The Waiting Game

We're are right in the middle of the waiting game.  It's so frustrating having to wait.  I'm trying to stay busy so that it keeps my mind off of it.  Monday my friends and I went down to LA to see the taping of Lopez Tonight.  Lopez Tonight was really cool.  The guest were Kathy Griffin, Simon somebody, and One Republic.  It was one of the coolest thing I've had the opportunity to do since I've been in CA.  One Republic was really good.  Tomorrow is OJ's birthday so I got him tickets to see the taping for Jay Leno.  We're also going to take a tour of the studio.  Then on Saturday we're going down to San Diego to visit some friend of ours from college.  I also have the never ending Auction.  I can not wait for this auction to be over.  I think it's more stress, that I don't need, then it's worth.  I just hope it turns out OK.  So that's the long list of things that I have going on to keep me busy and keep my mind off of things.  I keep getting more and more anxious with each passing day.
