The Aspiring Mom...to become one, to be one, and to continue growing as one. {{ posts|order:asc }}...
Keyword, yet . I really thought that maybe this month we'd get some news especially since we had so much sex in July -- possibly more than we've had in the last 6 months -- LOL. But still..nothing. And that's with us not thinking about it. We tried what everyone says to do: just enjoy your intimacy. We did. We had a lot of fun and it was pretty sweet to connect in that way. We're going to keep…
It's been a while since my last entry and guess what?! I'm still not pregnant. That's ok though. We've been hanging on to our faith a lot more lately. I noticed I was getting sad when others announced they were expecting. Like...were you even trying?! But then I remembered that everyone's on their own journey. It's their time now and my time will come too. Surprisingly, my appointment with my new…
It was Mother's Day yesterday and I got my period 11 days early.. yeah, I don't know!?!? For a second I thought it could've been implantation bleeding but I guess it's not. I wonder what happened with my cycle. All I can think is that I've been very active lately. Between being conscious of my steps, playing volleyball and pickleball a few times a week, and cleaning around the house, I've…
Just like the title implies: we're not expecting, not yet at least. I tried 'not to think of it' like everyone tells me, but it's easier said than done. Even though it's only been a couple of months since we started trying, it has been pretty challenging and at times even discouraging. We started to feel the weight of it this past month so that's why we didn't follow the calendar/app. Also, I'm…
We took the test the evening I was due to get my period on March 25 th . I was pretty bummed. Tears immediately. I was thinking this could be the start of the journey that we've both been praying for. My husband tried to make my feel better with jokes but I wasn't in the mood to laugh. Once he settled down -- he was really comforting. He told me we'd keep trying and that this experience makes him…
I'm becoming impatient to take a pregnancy test. I just want to know if I'm pregnant or not. My husband is keeping me grounded and reassuring me to just wait for my missed period which is due tomorrow. We've started getting giddy about the idea of becoming parents, imagining how things will be, and how they will also shift. We've started sharing about experiences we'd want to have with our future…
All Day I Dream About Sex....ok, just kidding but this past week we've "made a lot of love" . I gotta say: getting intimate with my husband on a consistent schedule this past week has felt really nice. Not that we're a sexually stagnant couple but sometimes we're just so busy and tired that we rather sleep than initiate something. According to the app I use, today officially concludes my ovulation…
One day early, but I got my period... Should I be worried? Feeling sad but still hopeful. Our time is yet to come.
I'd like to say, I don't know why we've started getting targeted with conception and baby videos, but I do know why. We're eager for good news. We'll know by Friday this week on whether or not we're expecting. Yesterday, while snowed in, we watched this beautiful video and we were completely moved. It's crazy how every single moment of the journey is intentional and special. Patiently awaiting our…
OK...not really but we did have sex on vacation! As you may or may not know, we're trying to conceive . We've always said we'll officially start trying once we go on this final vacation.. and well it happened and it's time. I've been distracting myself from counting down the days until we find out a.k.a. the next time my period is due so instead I've been silently observing my husband and…
