Nothing Yet

While our Dr's appointment went well, we still have nothing to report... just a lot to decide and think about.

I knew that by starting this blog I was inviting people into a normally private area of our lives and would thus face many questions and comments, which are genuinely appreciated, but will probably not be answered.

Here's the thing. We are so incredibly thankful and blessed by all our your prayers and encouragement and appreciate that you're all on this journey with us! However, we've decided not to publicly announce what we decide to do... at least not yet. It's not because we don't want people to know or we want to be secretive... we just feel like there are certain things we'd like to keep private for a while.

One of the big reasons for this decision is this:  If/When we decide to proceed with an IUI or any other treatment options, we don't want everyone to start asking us 2 weeks later if we're pregnant or not. What if we're not? We don't really want to continue to live our disappointment over and over and over. If an IUI does work, we know that miscarriages are more common than anyone wants to admit, and we don't want to annouce a pregnancy prematurly.

We hope no one is offend by our decision. Its not out of a desire to be secretive or sneaky... a lot of it has to do with our emotional stability... and the fact that we have very little to begin with at this point in time. We have made this decision so that we will able to either celebrate or grieve in our own way and time before making any type of announcements.

As of right this moment, we still do not know when we'll be moving forward, but when we're ready to share, I promise we will. That doesn't mean I won't continue to blog... I'm positive I'll still have plenty to write about. 

If any of you has a specific question, we welcome it, but just know that we may not answer it directly.

Thank you again for your love and support. We never imagined that we would have so many people praying for us and Baby D.

  1. A blog is a place for us to talk about our feelings and to post whatever we are comfortable with. It is a place to have others support you and be there during the good times and bad times. You post what you are comfortable with and we will be here to show support for you. I wish you the best on your decision to move or not move forward with another cycle soon. I know after our four iui's, I was drained, emotionally and physcially.
