Thank you for your advice and your prayers!!

Ok….Doctor update...first can I tell you how strange this is to be typing and talking out loud about this stuff (I called mom after my doc appointment and filled her in...I really liked sister's suggestion of taking mom with me...I literally almost asked her to go with me yesterday! lol)....also as sis pointed out, this is huge for me to be opening up like this! lol

anyway…I know that you all were praying for me because the strangest thing happened…or maybe she knows all the basic common questions so when she saw I was armed with a list she just started asking me questions and answering most everything on my list…she prescribed something that will make me regular and also she talked about another prescription that is meant to help control blood sugar but people get pregnant when taking it because it just changes something in the body chemistry…anyway…since I’m not regular she said most likely I have too much estrogen…blah blah blah…so I haven’t picked up my prescription yet so I can’t tell you what it is…but I’ll keep you posted…I know that you all are on the edge of your seats! Lol

She said it’s usually the woman that has the challenges (ya like that better than “problem” Kelley? lol)...so hopefully that’s true here…bless his heart…husband is so afraid that it’s something to do with him having the measles or the chicken pox when he was a teenager…he’s so sweet…he’s like so afraid to get his hopes up about having a child that he won’t hardly talk about it because he says if there is something “wrong” with one of us, he just doesn’t want to put that pressure on either of us…bless his heart!

But so anyway…she said she will be my baby’s doctor when the little one is here but she doesn’t do the in between stuff so she referred me to someone and I have an appointment with her next Monday! So yay!

Anyway…I just wanted to thank you all so much for the advice and prayers….I wrote just about everything down that ya’ll commented and so that was pretty much what my list consisted of…so yay…we’re on the road…I’m impatient and want to be pregnant tomorrow but I know it doesn’t work that way….

On other news…it was my regular annual check up and I have tiny veins so they had to poke and prod to take blood…ugh…the lady that tried to take my blood first did not instill a whole lot of confidence…as she was preparing the tourniquet thingy she was talking about how she just had to go back to school to learn how to do this because she was diagnosed with carpal tunnel in both wrists and couldn’t really do anything but take blood so I’m thinking wonderful….anyway she couldn’t find my vein so another girl had to come in and help and I liked her much better...except they talked about that when I do get pregnant I better get used to being poked...I didn't love that thought...My blood pressure and circulation and all that stuff is great…doctor always says I’m a very healthy girl…so that’s always good to know…

Anyways…just wanted to keep ya’ll posted…and please more advice! Umm…I was going to say something else but I forget…oh wait I remembered…so I had to fast this morning so I didn’t go in the kitchen until it was almost time to go this morning and there on the kitchen counter was a gardenia plant! Yay! I told husband if he got me anything for V-Day I wanted some sort of houseplant…roses are great but they die…a houseplant just lives and lives and I’ve had quite the green thumb lately and I have quite a few houseplants but I want more! So how sweet is he!

Well I need to accomplish some work today so I’ll get back at it…just wanted to keep you updated and thank you again so much for the prayers and advice! I’m very excited, which is uncharacteristic of me in this area as sister pointed out! She knows me too well! Lol…love you all!
