Hi! I'm Caitlin, wife of James and mama of Maxwell. I am a proud USCG wife, former ballerina, photographer, and retail manager. Being a working mom isn't easy, and this blog gets {seriously} neglected now and then {most of the time}, but I keep up with it when I can.

No go

10 unsuccessful cycles down...we're on to cycle 11.  Hopefully the results for James' analysis will be back soon and we can figure out where our hold up is.

Semen Analysis

James has an appointment on Friday for his semen analysis.  We probably won't get the results back for a week or two, but I'm happy that he got that all set up and we'll be able to see if testing me is going to be necessary.

My friend, Rebecca, who was pregnant when I met her back in October, had her little girl last night!  She came exactly 2 weeks early and she's the cutest little peanut, weighing in at 5lbs, 4oz!

Enjoy the baby squishiness!

Time for another update

We are on our 9th cycle TTC and I actually feel better about it this month than I did last month.  James got a referral to get a semen analysis if this cycle is another unsuccessful one.  We've decided that we're really not ready to go the route of getting me tested because I'm not ready to dive into medical procedures to try to get pregnant.  And I figure if I'm not ready for that, why would I want to get tested now?  So, if we still aren't pregnant within the next 6 months or so, then I'll consider going in to get some testing done myself.  We've also been doing a lot of talking about names...some pretty exciting stuff, but I think we've decided that even though we'll probably pick a name right away, we probably won't be announcing it to many people until the baby arrives...for several reasons.
