Wow! Who would have thought that I would be sitting here creating a family blog and announcing that Jr & I have decided to try for baby number two?!?! I honestly had accepted about a year ago that our precious Brooke was going to be our one and only. After my female health scare(s) and simply because Jr only wanted one kid. Now we get to (hopefully) bless her with a sibling. She has been coming home from church every Sunday telling us that she wants a baby brother or sister - leaning more towards sister, haha.
Jr & I are both very excited and anxious. He came to me about two weeks ago and told me, completely out of the blue, that he had been thinking a lot about it and he really wanted another child. I was completely shocked - excited - a little apprehensive. The most surprising part of the news is that he said that he wanted to start soon. Of course - this was an answer to a very silent prayer.
So, I scheduled an appointment with my specialist after a few days of tossing the idea around - went last Thursday and got the 'go ahead'. Everything looks good - I'm healthy. He went ahead and started me on Prometrium & Clomid. I will probably be going back in about a week or so for a midcycle ultrasound (all so familiar) to check my eggs.
I'm very optimistic this time. I am not going to stress nearly as much as I did while we were trying for Brooke. I'm going to put my faith in God, because I trust what He has planned for us and our future.
Speaking of our Brookie - she turned three today! Where does the time go?! Seems like just yesterday I was holding my precious baby in my arms for the 1st time. She is so smart, funny, and loved by sooo many people. We are truly blessed to have her in our lives. She never ceases to amaze me.
Well, ladies and gents - this is the beginning of our newest journey or chapter in our lives together - hopefully a very successful one. I'm going to try my hardest to blog as much as I can about it and keep you all updated.
