Journey to Motherhood

I’ve been reading blogs about couples who are ttc (trying to conceive). Most of them are very inspiring but there are some heartbreaking stories which I can relate. It really saddens me to recall all the things that dear husband and I went through. This journey is really a tough one. As of this writing, my heart feels like crying. I am here in the office having my night shift. The system is down so I have free time to blog.

It’s been so many years now since dear husband and I tried... and still trying to have a baby. My Partner in life is so supportive, willing and able to participate in this crazy journey. I thank God for giving me such a wonderful husband.

Two years ago we decided to undergo IUI (Intrauterine Insemination). So many tests, ultra sounds and TVS were done. Provera , Clomid and other medicines to boost fertility were also given to me. Dear husband diligently took his Vitamin E.

The cost of this so- called journey is very expensive and not covered by our HMO. SO DONATIONS ARE VERY VERY MUCH WELCOME ☺☺☺. Our families are not informed of all the stuffs that we are doing. Dear Husband and I are just clinging on with each other. We’re both scared that our families will not be able to absorb this crazy ride of ours.

Obviously the two IUIs that we had were unsuccessful! Year 2008 we stopped the fertility work ups due to financial constraints.

End of April 2010, Dear Husband and I agreed to try having work ups again. This will be our last attempt. It pains me soooo much to give this up but I guess we both have to move on… Our lives have been focused on this for so long. We believe that God will always have a much greater plan for us.

Hoping and praying that our baby will come this year.
