Calling All Women of Strength!!!

[mommyin10]

A Strong Woman VS. A Woman Of Strength


A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.

A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.

A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

hello i have sent some emails enqirying to adopt today i always wanted to do it now i thought why wait ??

[kmcarino]

Good luck!  I hope that you are able to conceive without having to go through IVF.  I hope the Chlomid will do it for you.

Hi everyone,

I just finished my 2nd round of provera and so I am just waiting for AF to come. I made an appointment with a local reproductive specialist and am excited to get going with everything. Our appointment is 5/18. I am not currently taking Clomid, but that would be our first choice before IUI. The place we are going had a drawing through their website for a free IVF cycle. That would be a blessing if we were picked.

Happy future Mother's Day to all.

Happy Mother's Day ladies!!!!  I hope everyone enjoys the day.

Dnikki - I'm sorry for the -ve but don't give up yet!  It's early. Still hoping for you!!

[dnikki0928]

Happy Mother's Day gals :-) I hope you all have a great day!

Tested this morning and got a BFN...I really don't think I'm p/g this time. I think we'll do one more round of injects, and if nothing then I'm done. We'll just really consider adoption. I've been fine this morning, but what really got me was one of my friends on wrote on Facebook that #2 is on the way...And they weren't even trying. I mean literally - her DH has been home for like 2 months (Military)...I'm happy for her and, just wish it was me also...

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

Oh my, what a day!! I'm so glad it's over and I'm finally home and able to relax, and my stressful day is over! :) I'm starting to get really, really nervous for Monday's u/s! I just hope everything goes well, that the baby is doing great and we see a h/b! I think I'll start to feel a lot better after we see that! My mom called today and wanted to take me shopping for maternity clothes! She's so sweet, but I just want to make sure everything is progressing well before I start shopping for clothes for me! Plus, I have SO many maternity clothes from being pregnant with Kayln, but new clothes are nice too! :) We'll see after Monday, though!! It's all in God's hands, that's all I know, and I have been praying everyday for this baby to be OK!

Mommyin10- Awww...I know how hard Sunday will be! :( In a way, I feel like I'm right there with you! It's hard for me to celebrate Mother's Day for myself when we've lost both of our babies! And even though we've been blessed again, it's just hard for me to get too excited just b/c of everything we've been through. I love this baby, don't get me wrong, but I've just gone into "protective" mode for myself, ya know? I know if we see a h/b on Monday, that I'll feel so much better and I'll feel better about celebrating Mother's Day! Too bad my u/s wasn't today, or Mother's Day isn't Tues! :) I'll be thinking about you tomorrow, and just like Stacey said, we all need to celebrate Mother's Day b/c we are all going to be one in the future! :)

Stacey- Happy Mother's Day to you!! :) And thanks, I hope the weather cooperates tomorrow too so we can see Kayln! It was beautiful today, yesterday was horrible! But that's Missouri for ya!! :) You never know what to expect!!

Mrs_Hynes- Welcome! :)

dnikki- Happy Mother's Day! :) I hope you get your BFP tomorrow!!! What a great gift that would be! Good luck!!!!! :)

Hannah- Don't worry, when I took opk's my tests were always faint, even after a positive test. And it's b/c you always have lh in your system, that's what the opks test for. It's just before O when you have your surge that it shows positive. So, it's normal to constantly have faint tests! Good luck to you this 2ww!!! :)

naf- Oh, I'm sorry about your mom! :( I couldn't imagine! But your mom is with you. You keep her alive by keeping her in your heart! That's exactly where I keep Kayln! :) I am very happy that you have your little one to give you extra love too! I can't wait till I have that!! :)

Rachjas- That's awesome you're in your 2ww! Congrats! :) I'll have to take a peek at your chart! :) Hopefully you'll get a wonderful suprise, and won't need to do the IVF, but I'm glad that plan is in place and next week you'll have your class! How exciting!! :) Oh, and that's normal to have + OPK's 2 days in a row. Mommyin10 has that happen all the time! :) Good luck!!! :)

Candie- Hey, I'm jealous!! Where are  you going on your cruise? How fun!! :) Hope you're having a great weekend!! Do you think you'll test soon? Come on BFP!!!!! ;)

Leighanne- Happy Mother's Day!! :) I hope Jaedyn gives you lots of slobbery kisses tomorrow! ;)
