A Step in the Right Direction

I am so relieved.  I just got back from visiting the doctor's office and my nurse practitioner is going to talk with some nurses at the office and get the ball rolling on my testing.  I did have some blood work done for a blood clotting disorder and a lipid panel to see if my cholesterol levels are normal.  It's kind of weird hoping there is something wrong with you.  I guess if there is something wrong, there is something to fix.  

On an other note, due to the fertility diet I have lost 8 pounds!  I am so excited and hoping that this continues!  If anything I will be healthier.  I have noticed more energy and I love it.  I use to want to come home and take naps after work and now I'm making plans for what I'm going to do after work, its awesome.

As good as the fertility diet is with the massage and all that, I'm still missing my baby so much.  I had a break down last night for the first time in about a week.  I felt like I was doing so good and then all the sudden I wasn't.  I hate that I've had three miscarriages in such a short time.  I just want a baby!!!  I don't know why my body wants to be so difficult!  

Thankfully, I was encouraged a lot yesterday because I needed it.  A Facebook friend had written a verse on their status, it was 1st Peter 2:19 which says, "For God is pleased with you when you do what you know is right and patiently endure unfair treatment."  Also, the verse of the day on my phone was Isaiah 40:31 which says, "but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."  And on top of all of that I had a great phone conversation with my mom who was very encouraging.  

As much as learning all of this has been beneficial, I am hoping this journey is over soon.  I'm really tired and brokenhearted.  I don't know how much more I can handle.  I'm hoping the Lord is going to do something great.  I feel like I have my hand on a plug and all I need to do is pull hard and blessing will pour out over John and I.  I am so ready for that!
