Hey, when you find out what you're good at....

What ho?

I'm spotting a little today! This is actually pretty good news, considering I haven't had a cycle in about 2 years! It may not seem like much but, it means that I'm ovulating, something I haven't done on my own in about three years... at least not regularly. So this has the potential to be great news! It may mean that I can have a baby totally unassisted if Tony has the reversal done! Which I must admit, I was thinking the reversal may be just a huge waste of money lately because of my inability to ovulate. I just figured that if I was going to have to go to the RE anyway to get pregnant, may as well move forward with the IUI and forget about a reversal. That way, the cost would be HALF of what the reversal would be. We will revisit all of that after I know if I'm regular or not. If my periods do not even back out, then I may still need to be on fertility drugs. So again, it's a waiting game. It's always a waiting game!

But tax return time is looming, so a decision will be final soon. Since part of that money is going toward trying to get pregnant again (whichever method that may be) it will be good to have that in hand with a purpose.

In the meantime, Tony and I are working on our parenting skills. I would like to learn a lot more about how to parent the four unique kids we have to the best of our abilities, so that the transition to five will go more smoothly. No one is perfect, us least of all... but we're really going to work hard on being the very best that we can be. I am totally devoted to becoming a more loving, attentive, and effective parent. I love them all so much.
