Let's get this party started!


Hi ladies, I woke up today at 5:45 am to go to the doctor since my appointment was at 7:00 am (wayyyy to early for me) but I really didn't care because I was so excited to be back there again. So they didn't do blood work they just did a sonogram and everything looks great. I have about 7 follies in my right ovary and 6 on my left ovary. So here's the plan, tomorrow night I start the injections (Gonal F 37.5 IU) , take baby aspirin every day and go back on Easter Sunday at 8:00 am for blood work and a sonogram. I hope we have a few good follies =)


I'm so thankful that God is giving us this opportunity to cycle. Since last month we couldn't do anything I was so afraid that we were just going to seat on the sidelines again. It's so hard to just seat and wait, while everybody around you is getting pregnant and talking about babies all day long. I'm putting my heart and soul into this cycle, I have a really good feeling about it. I don't know if its because we are starting to cycle on holy week but I think this is it guys. I just have a feeling and even if I'm wrong I know that we will be parents one day. I JUST KNOW IT!

Back and Ready to Cycle!

Hi Ladies, I had an amazing weekend. Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes! The celebration started on Thursday night, some friends came over and we had wine and cake. On Friday we left to Key West and we had a blast! I really needed this weekend trip to relax. We spent the weekend drinking, eating, riding scooters and dancing, what a great way to celebrate my 29Th Birthday!! On Saturday night we went to a place that they only serve wine and desserts, it's called "Better than Sex" Wow!!! Even though I didn't think it was very than sex lol it really was delicious.

Guess what I got for my birthday??? I really do have the best hubby in the world. He got me a Nikon D5000!!!! I love to take pictures, and this camera is amazing. He also got me photography classes and two amazing lenses. I have been taking pictures all day. If anybody has one, any tips or suggestions are welcome.
My last birth control pill was on Saturday, so now I'm just waiting for my period. Period please come soon!! I can't wait to start cycling again. I have a really good feeling about this cycle, we are soooooo ready. I pray to God that this is our cycle. Since I just turned 29Th everybody was asking what we were waiting for to start having kids? Ughhhhhhh if they only knew. I hope I can tell everybody in a few months " We are pregnant"!!!!!!










I posted some pictures from this weekend, Enjoy!

Cyst Free!!!!!

OMG, my cysts are GONE!!!!!!! Thank you God!!!!! I'm so excited, this is all I really wanted for my birthday ladies and I GOT IT! Wow I feel so happy right now, I can't believe it. My doctor was very optimistic about this cycle. So here is the plan, I keep taking my last three BC pills and as soon as I get my period I will call the office and go in CD 3. My last pill is on Saturday so I really hope that my period comes either Sunday or Monday.

My husband went to the appointment with me and he was soooooo happy as well. He's the funniest and the most optimistic person I know, he's never sad always in a great mood, and he has been my rock through this long six months. Today when Dr. H said that my cysts were gone his eyes got watery and he had the biggest smile on his face. He told me " Baby, I told you that God was going to take care of us". I'm so blessed to have such an amazing and supportive partner! So thank you baby for always putting a smile on my face, I love you!

I'm starting to celebrate my birthday tomorrow. All my friends are coming over for some Tapas and wine, and on Friday morning a group of us are going to Key West to keep the party weekend going. Hey this may be my last year without a baby so I need to party it up right? I hope everybody has an amazing weekend. Thank you for all your comment and prayers =)

Anxious for Tomorrow!


Tomorrow I have a doctor's appointment at 10am and I'm soooooo excited! I really hope that my cysts are gone so we have move forward. This is really the only thing that I WANT for my birthday!! So God please only good news!

We are leaving to Key West this weekend with my parents and a couple of friends so it should be a really fun birthday. I already started tanning today since the temperature is 74 degree wohoooo!!! The cold weather is officially gone.

I have 4 birth control pills left, my last pill is on Saturday so by Sunday or Monday my period should come =). I was thinking of maybe starting acupuncture this cycle since some of you are doing it and you really like it. My only fear is the little needles. I know if we can start cycling again I would have to get a shot every day in my belly and blood drawn every other day. But I also know that it would help me a lot. I'm going to start looking to see if I have any Acupuncture clinics around my area.

We went to Europe last September for a month and after that trip we wanted to start trying for a baby. So as I was uploading all the pictures in Kodak Gallery to make an album for each country, and I started crying. How our lives have change after that trip, we had no worries about infertility we thought by December for sure we were going to be pregnant. Little did we know that Clomid was not going to work that I was going to developed cyst and that getting pregnant was not going to be easy. Sometimes I feel that I'm in a dark phase in my life which nobody can tell at all because I'm always laughing but deep down inside I know how I feel. I'm also very grateful because we are beyond blessed with everything else. But just seen everybody around me pregnant or with a baby makes me so sad. God really knows how much we want a child and I trust him 100% that we haven't gotten pregnant for a reason, that right now it's very hard for me to see and understand. I just want to get out of this dark stage and feel happy again. I really hope that this cycle is a great one and that we get our little blessing.

Attached are some pictures from Europe. Enjoy!

Relaxing weekend


Hi Ladies, I just got in the mail the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor!! I'm super excited to start using it. Has anybody used it before? I got it because last cycle I missed my ovulation by almost a week. Since I was on my own because my doctor wanted me to cancel the cycle since I had 4 mature follicles and he was scared that I was going to get pregnant with triplets or quadruplets, little did he know. I told him that we still wanted to try and he said we were on our own =(. So long story short we missed our ovulation days. I truly thought I was pregnant I had all the symptoms in the world. But it wasn't our time yet.


Since I'm still spotting a little bit even though I'm taking BC (9 days left) I'm going in next Wednesday for an ultrasound and blood work. I pray to God that the 3 cyst are gone and I'm ready to cycle. That would be the best birthday gift EVER!!!! I also lost 4lb of the 5lb that I gained during the injections last cycle. So I'm ready to start.


This weekend my husband is going hunting with his Dad and one of his friends. Sooooo because I'm such a chicken and can't stay home alone my mom and my little sister are staying with me for the whole weekend. Wohoooooo. On Friday we are going shopping, on Saturday we have a spa day and on Sunday my whole family is coming over for lunch. I love spending time with my family they make me laugh so much and I kind of forget about TTC for a while.

I thank all of you for reading my blog, I'm new at this blog thing but I'm starting to like it a lot, specially all your amazing stories so thank you!

What's going on in my little world

So the PGA tour is going on as I write this in my backyard, so there's tons of people walking around and the traffic around my house is insane! Last year we got tickets but I don't know if is just me but I find Golf super boring, we had a great time though because we were drinking and hanging out with our friends. This year I don't think we will get tickets since Tiger Woods is not even playing.

I have 11 days left on my BC yayyyyyy can't wait!! But on Sunday I completely forgot to take my pill and Monday morning I had a surprise visitor MY PERIOD! I took a pill yesterday and today but I'm still spotting. I'm so scared that the reason why I got my period is because the 3 huge cysts are still there ahhhh I would be so sad. But I don't feel anything, not even when I work out and do lunges or abs do I feel anything in my lower abdomen. Should I call my doctor? Or should I wait? I sure hope I didn't mess this up.

One of my best friends calls me today that she is late by 6 days what???? She's still in nursing school and her boyfriends lives in Atlanta. She was there for two weeks last month so she thinks that maybe something happened. We are doing a pregnancy test at my house tomorrow. I don't know how I'm going to react if it comes out positive! I really hope I can keep myself together. Of course I will be happy for her but at the same time I will be a bit sad that I'm still not pregnant.

What a great weekend!!


Hi ladies, I hope everybody had an amazing weekend. We partied like if we were 21 again jaja. Friday night was one of my friend's birthday and we went to a Club in South Beach that we used to go to a lot before we got married. I forgot how good those days were, not a care in the world....wow how time flies!!!! We got a little bit "happy" had a few drink and did many shots lol. It was an awesome night. We ended up eating pizza at 4am like we used to do 3 years ago.


On Saturday on of my best friends turned 30 and we also went to South Beach to a wine bar. We had an amazing time. My friend was sooooo happy and she had a blast. She has been kind of down since she lost her job a couple of weeks ago, and has not been able to find a new one. But after a few bottles of wines she was loving life. So it was a great night.


Today we went to mass, hang out with our families and had brunch with friends. So overall I had a great weekend, didn't really have time to think about TTC, thank God!


I have 13 days left on the BC and I can't wait to finish. I thought this wait time was going to be a lot harder but since I have been trying so hard to stay busy time is flying by. I'm going to end my weekend with the final episode of Giuliana and Bill. I love them!! Does anybody watch the show??? They are also having trouble in the baby making department and last episode they did IUI so today they will tell them if they are pregnant or not. She had a higher chance this time because she did the injections. I really hope they are!!
