A week of celebrations

Image
This week we will be having 2 celebrations. The first was yesterday my 6th wedding anniversary. How time flies!  Earlier on in the week we came across our home made wedding video, starting with my sister waking us with a camera in our faces, to the whole getting ready, vows and then the after party. It was a wonderful day with close friends and family.  It was the first time in anytime i can remember getting both my parents in a picture! Great picture i think, other than my eyes been closed when it was taken lol. So which do i look like?? My mom and dad haven't been together for over 20 yrs but it was lovely to know that they can both still be in the same room (even if they both deny it lol) My dad came with his now wife and their 3 children. No pictures of his wife as she didn't want to be in any which was a little disheartening but totally her choice, i know as I'm getting older i prefer my pictures not to be taken lol. We had only just got in contact not long b...

On the road to IVF

After seeing my consultant today, i feel.......a little worried, a little apprehensive, yet a little like I'm on the road to another challenge. When my Dh when for his vasectomy reversal, we didn't get warned about antibodies killing off his sperm. Our consultant thinks this may be the problem, although not 100% sure, Tests are been done! Also due to my long cycles rearing their head after so long ( guessing the clomid is totally out of my system) he has decided i need another ovary scan. So that is all but booked in just waiting for the date. Until then i have been put on Metformin . A drug generally used for type 2 diabetics, although recent studies have seen it help women with fertility problems. We are on the road to either IUI or IVF , It seems that after 3 years with no luck that is the only option. There are a lot of pros and cons to look at when dealing with the treatment. The main factor is the cost! How expensive!!! Luckily i have opted for the egg share whic...

Words cant describe how i feel........

Talking through a box of wine.....or a few glasses out of it!

Blogging is something that i haven't been able to grasp hold of fully and jump onto the wagon. I find it a chore in some ways to have/want to blog everyday......however having dais that i love to write, and i love to write it in the exact way i am feeling it. I think from been in my  middle teens i learnt to say exactly what i felt when i felt it and not tip toe around things. In my opinion that is exactly how everyone should be. Yes it may hurt some feelings in a way, but if you are truthful in a way, wouldn't you prefer someone to tell you they either dislike you or you don't look nice in that dress, before you started a deep friendship, or stepped out the door? I know i would. But meh, maybe that's just me. People say that many people speak more of the truth ( although im sure it will be slightly babble and jumbled up) after a few drinks. Something to do with the alchol loosening your tongue...or something along those lines. I myself, don't really drink...

Been a long time......Again!

I don't seem to be able to keep up with this blogging thing and as you may have noticed it seems to come sparsely....however having said that i DO contemplate on blogging about something probably 2-3 times a week. I think i find it more of a venting machine, or someone i can pour everything out to when i feel like no one else is interested. I find that many people can be one sided. Maybe i don't amount to what they want as a friend/relation etc? Oh well i guess that's just how it is sometimes. We cant all be on the ball and ready to jump and the slightest whim. So whats been happening eh?? Well firstly my sister had a lil baby boy. It took me ages to meet him i have to admit, mostly because i think of my selfishness and stupid reasons, although at the time they were not to me. I had told lil sis that i didn't know how i would cope meeting him and wanted to leave it till i felt able too and she seemed fine with that. so that's what i did. When i did meet him.......

Into double figures

Today my little boy turned 10. Its hard to imagine that it was 10 yrs to this day that i gave birth to him. So much has changed through these 10 years. He has turned into a handsome young man. Tall, slim and a mouth liek a foghorn lol. Here's to another 10 years! Happy 10th Birthday Kian xxxx

So I was reading the daily mail on line as I usually do while tea is away cooking in the oven etc, when I came across an article " Think you are ready to have children ?". It intrigued me even though I am already a mom to a 9 yr old going on 29 and a step mom to an 11 yr old, however with the great wish to have at least 4 more children (if and when my body will snap out of its sulking mode) I decided to read on. Fair to say I was laughing out loud the whole time. The way its worded, the things they ask.........Yes its a fair question to ask. My response????? Hell yeah bring it all on!! Why not take a look for yourself? What do you think? (I must mention, this was found on a blogging sight and shown to the daily mail. Recently posted on Mamami by Chet .
