Hopefully people will be able to see this someday soon. I just want to talk and talk and talk about having children but only a select few know. We kept it quiet from our family because we want to surprise them  : ) We have joked to them so many times about bringing a kid into the home when it was a pug : D I really want to thank Hunter, Stephanie, and my coworker, Monica, for being so quiet about this whole situation. 
So it is January 17th and so far I am not pregnant – no test today. I am aching for symptoms. The crappy thing is that I get sick to my stomach easily…am tired a lot – lol…so it will be hard to tell. I got excited and got some pregnancy tests a few weeks ago and took one for the hell of it. Obviously negative. I thought I had some implantation bleeding last week so I took one – negative. Every time I think I am pregnant…I am not and it kills my happiness. 
CHILL ALEX – it is the first month! OH I need to learn patience.  


Day of start of last period: December 19th Today is: January 17thFirst month off of birth control – expecting a late period. 
I have been having baby dreams, the other day it was that I was having twins and last night it was that I finally got a + pregnancy test.
I do not know why I am freaking out. I just feel like it is a fairy tale that will never happen…or only the lucky girls get pregnant. To be pregnant and have a baby seems like something I’ve only dreamed of. 
Lord gives me patience.  
Deuteronomy 31:8
The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."

No dreams – thank you! I got cramps last night. So thought I was about to start…so far…have not started.


Day of start of last period: January 21stToday is January 23rdFinished the first month without birth control: 1 month and two days 

Friday night I somehow knew I was going to start soon. I had a bad attitude for no reason and I felt like crying. I went to bed at like 830pm. Sure enough the next day I started. I wasn’t as upset as I thought I would be. I was tired of mistaking period symptoms for pregnancy symptoms. Plus we can start from scratch…I can find out when I am ovulating…take my temp and so on.
I took a fertility test this morning and was actually happy to see one line! This actually meant that my levels were normal and I shouldn’t have any fertility problems.

Hello there. Nothing new. Not ovulating. Not pregnant…just livin’ the life. Haha!


Start of last period: January 21stToday is February 8th Day 19 of cycle2nd month off of birth control

Hi there. Nothing new. 


Start of last period: January 21stToday is February 10th Day 21 of cycle2nd month off of birth control

I am ovulating!! I have been since the 9th! After seeing so many empty circles it was nice to see a smiling face staring at me! I also went to the lady doctor yesterday for my yearly checkup and she told me to chill out. I will get pregnant when I get pregnant. Lol! She also wanted me to stop the ovulation kits but I am not – only because they are fun. I enjoy seeing if I am ovulating or not. No big deal. I have chilled out a bit. That is all for today. I am so ready to spill the beans about trying to get pregnant. I have only talked to 4 people about it (who knows who Matt has told – lol  - I know)…thanks, Hunter, Stephanie, Monica, and Jessica for keeping a good secret. 


Start of last period: January 21stToday is February 22h Day 33 of cycle2nd month off of birth control

No period yet. Not worried about it. Felt like hell on Monday and took a preggo test. Negative. Today is Ash Wednesday….I am not catholic but I was baptized Greek Orthodox…on my way to work I decided to give up something for lent. I gave up the worry of trying to become pregnant. I gave up the ovulation tests and the pregnancy tests (unless I am seriously late). I need to give up and let God. He is the provider. I don’t need to worry about this – it will come when HE is ready. 




Start of last period: January 21stToday is February 23h Day 34 of cycle2nd month off of birth control

After I wrote this yesterday I went to the restroom and thought I started…It was so odd because I ALWAYS start in the early morning and I can always tell because of cramps. TMI- it was very light and was just on the toilet paper. End TMI I didn’t get any cramps what so ever. Could this ACTUALLY be implantation bleeding? I don’t know because that was the ONLY occurrence of Aunt Flo. After I spoke to God about giving it up to him he gave it? I thought you’d be able to find out you’re pregnant the second you have implantation bleeding so I bought two tests and they were both negative…(silly me – you don’t test then – still have to wait)…so I am back to chilling out and patiently waiting for God…he is in CONTROL!


Start of last period: February 23rd Today is March 7th  Day 14 of cycle3rd month off of birth control

I definitely started that day…so my cycles have been 33 days apart the past two months. I am regular! I have been pretty calm…yay! Mind has been elsewhere…we bought a house! Woohoo! We close the end of March.


Start of last period: February 23rd Today is March 13th  Day 20 of cycle3rd month off of birth control

Absolutely nothing! Is it bad I want to postpone pregnancy and just go to Orlando Florida and visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter constantly? Nope.  I have chilled out quite a bit. Proud of myself.


Start of last period: March 27th  Today is March 28th  Day 2 of cycle3rd month off of birth control

Started yesterday. No babay. No big deal. I didn’t take one pregnancy test – so proud of myself. Haven’t thought about it much which is good. I kinda don’t care anyone. It’ll come whenever. Been reading a lot, along with having a lot of work and school work…and we are moving! Mind is occupied! Until next time!


Start of last period: March 27th   Today is April 4th   Day 9 of cycle4th month off of birth control

Work and school are kicking my butt. Pretty stressed out but not because of wanting to be pregnant. I have officially chilled out. Too busy reading, working, schooling, and unpacking!


Start of last period: April 30th    Today is May 10th    Day 11 of cycle5th month off of birth control

Whoopsy forgot about this! School officially kicked my butt. It is finally over! So now I can read again! Maybe the no stress will help us get pregnant!! Ahhh! 


Start of last period: April 30th    Today is May 29th    Day 30 of cycle5th month off of birth control

Just waiting for the period to start. TMI – thought I had implantation bleeding….probably is just me starting? Who knows…will keep an eye on it. I should be starting this weekend….if it is negative then we are gearing up for June!


Start of last period: May 29th     Today is June 26th     Day 28 of cycle6th month off of birth control

I definitely gave it up to God and asked him what to do. I flat out told him I wanted to be a mommy. Mommy to a human baby that is lol. I am already a mommy to two precious pugs. I just asked him to show me what I need to do. I must say…he must have known what I was thinking about yesterday because I started taking my prenatal vitamins again. I was kind of eating the gummy ones but they had no iron. I was reading the back of the labels yesterday randomly…I have hard vitamins and I started taking them last night. So thanks, God. 


Start of last period: May 29th     Today is July 9th    PREGNANT!!!6th month off of birth control


We're pregnant!! We have been waiting for this day for FOREVER! I am usually 31-32 days so when the 33rd day came on Monday I was talking to Monica and told her to not get excited because this has happened a lot these past 7 months of trying. 

On the fifth of July I finally was thinking okay I need to take a test. Of course I had no tests so I took an ovulation test. My DR. told me that if you are pregnant the ovulation test will come up positive. I got two lines on the test so I told Matt and went to Kroger. 
Unfortunately I didn't have to pee but I made myself and those few drops came out +!! I went down and showed Matt...and was like...well looks like I am....hahaha. 
Kinda in shock here...and just praying this goes okay. It is so early. It's hard to believe youre pregnant without an ultrasound or a big tummy. 
My first appointment is July 10th with a nurseMy first DR. appointment is July 30th 
Please Jesus let everything go okay. 

Be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead! 
I Peter 1:6 
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6
