Chasing Joy

TMI Alert!!! This Journey to Becoming a Mom is Getting Real.

|

Happy Friday!

I hope you are visiting today for an update on what I expect will be my greatest source of joy, my journey to becoming a mom.  Last week I shared the video I did after getting a smiley face on my OPK indicating that I’d  be ovulating soon.  After getting the smiley face I called my doctor’s office to schedule my IUI (Intra-Uterine Insemination) .  I had it the next day.  
It was a beautiful day with lots of sunshine.  My mom came with me to my appointment.  She has been my number 1 supporter in this process.  No surprise really as she’s my number 1 supporter period.  To make the day even more exciting and special my mom gave me a gift.  She gave me a necklace, a very special necklace.  It was the very first piece of jewelry my dad had ever given her.  She gave it to me to wear that day saying that way both of my parents could be there with me.  My mom in present my dad in spirit and remembered with the necklace.  
When I was researching this process I was comforted by a few you tube videos of women getting IUIs.  So I decided to capture my insemination on video.  My mom acted as the camera woman so please excuse the shakiness.  
This video is indeed TMI but don’t worry you wont really see anything but the first steps (hopefully) on my journey to becoming a mom.  

This is probably the realest thing I’ve ever done on the blog.  I hope someone else may be comforted or educated about the process by watching my video as I was in watching others.  
Please pray for me and cross your fingers that I might soon have a bundle of joy.
Have you seen any other live IUI videos?  Was the video what you were expecting?

  4. That is THE realist thing I have seen on the Internet. Even though I know that you're trying to have a baby, this makes it really real. So happy for you!!!
