I listen to you every morning on my way to work and I completely understand your frustration on not being able to get pregnant. My husband and I had been trying for a year to get pregnant. After seeing our OBGYN I found out, after many blood tests,that I did not ovulate at all. I, too, had to start Clomid. For four months I was on Clomid with each dose increasing until a blood test finally showed that I was ovulating. This was a joy in and of itself...I wasn't completely broken. We shared news of our struggle with friends who had decided within that short period of time to try to get pregnant as well. Within a month they were expecting. It is so hard to be happy for them as they are exploding with the exciting news when you world seems like it is crashing down on you. And the more times people say, "I will happen when you least expect it," the more you just want to spit in their face. I don't know about you, but I felt like I had failed as a woman. What's the point of going through PMS and everything else if I can't have a baby. Worst of all, I felt like I was failing my husband (who, by the way, was not stressing out at all). I got to the point that I was like, screw it...I can't take the pressure I am putting on myself any more. My husband and I went on vacation to a friend wedding and a month later I found out I was pregnant. My daughter, Logan Ann, is now 9 mo. old and I have never been happier. It will happen for you, I just know it. I will not give any advice because I know how annoying that is, but I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. By the way, please tell Kidd that the Mommie Test this morning (1/28/05) with the teacher was ridiculous! I am a 26 year old teacher and no teacher I know would EVER behave in that manner toward a parent!
