All About Me :)

My photo
I was born in Sitka, Alaska in 1983. My parents divorced when I was 5, and I spent my childhood and teens moving back and forth between parents. So, I grew up in Anchorage, Sitka, and Juneau. But, I call Sitka home. I graduated in 2000. I should have gone to college - but didn't. I met my husband in 2002, let him marry me in 2003 :), and had a daughter with him in 2004. She is the pure JOY in our lives. My husband is AD in the United States Coast Guard. This means that life is never boring, and if it is- hey! we get to move every 3 or 4 years. He is currently a DC (Damage Controlman) 2nd class - working on making 1st class. You can also find me on myspace.com/alaskanprincess

Ta-Da!

Took the last of my Clomid two days ago. Not too bad so far, I'm definitely getting the headaches and hot flashes this time around. The mood swings don't seem TOO bad, yet.

I'm going to make an appointment to go back and talk to my OB about Progesterone and baby aspirin. They're two things I wonder about that seem like a relatively easy "fix", and even if later on, testing showed that I didn't need them - it won't hurt anything.
This is his last shot, so to speak - if I end up feeling brushed off again, I'm going to just get my own referral to either the specialist in Memphis or the on in Jackson.
Beth has been helping me a lot - she's a very sweet gal <3. She's told me that the doctor in Jackson is easier to get to, so I might try there first.

I'm really looking forward to my NOLA trip with the other Coastie wives :) So, I'm trying to keep in mind that I've got something "big" to look forward to, and plan for.
It helps me to not think about -this- all day, every day.

((HUGS)) More hugs and love, friend. I'm so glad you have Beth's support and BTDT experience.

I think I need a NOLA countdown clock. :) We're going to have a BLAST!

Oh my goodness! How ARE you!?!? I'm so glad to hear about your sweet little family and good luck and best wishes for getting pregnant again. That's awesome. Sorry about locking you in the chicken coop. I don't even remember doing that, though it sounds like me...and Matt. *laugh* I'm so glad your mom gave you my blog addy. Now we can keep it touch. Have a great day!
