IT IS TIME

Hey all! It is time I go private. Leave your email address and I will send you an invite. There has just been too many random searches for us on google and weird sites coming up on my blog. Not that we are famous, but I fear there might be some old stalkers of Jakes :). Haha!

Ohhhhh the Answers!

A Beautifully, HEALTHY UTERUS!


So most everyone knows that we have been trying to have a baby for a few years and there has been no explanation as to why "IT" hasn't happened. After all it only took 2 months to get pregnant with Zachy but then took 16 months to get pregnant with Brady. All of our testing, (before we conceived Brady) came back basically normal and healthy. So we decided to go up to the "U" and see a fertility specialist last year. Well, the Dr. basically threw me on Clomid and did an IUI (intrauterine insemination) and called it good. Yes, I felt like a number there. We knew that we didn't want to go back. It didn't feel right. So we waited and decided to save the money for IVF. Well, I just couldn't figure out where I wanted to go to start the long road of fertility treatments. I had spoken to a couple different reproductive endocrinologists, both of whom I didn't feel good about. So I went to see my wonderful OB. HE referred me to a wonderful practice in A.F. Oh the difference was immediately evident in patient care and priority. Dr. Faulk, who Jake and I were both impressed with, instantly diagnosed my problem in a matter of 30 minutes. First off, I produce more LH than FSH, which is why I am so cool and not moody, HAHA! (Men produce more LH than FSH). Secondly, and more importantly, I have a 2 inch round endometrioma on my left ovary and stage 4 endometriosis! I have no predisposing factors other than my c-section, that would cause endometriosis. 2 months= Zach, 16= Brady, and the condition has worsened. So I started developing it after my c-section with Zach!

Oh, the answers are astounding and wonderful all at the same time! Here is what my uterus looks like! :)

So, I will be getting surgery soon and will need your prayers of course! Hopefully they can clean it all out and I will be good to go! You just never know what will come your way in this life, I tell ya. So grateful for an amazingly loving and supportive hubby that is so awesome! And Of course to a rock star Dr. that waisted no time in figuring out what was wrong and to get it fixed right away! Blessings, Blessings, Blessings! Too many to count!
