Up and running
May 29, 2006
Yeah........
My diary is up and running. It is so nice to be able to tell my story again since I stopped writing on preconcrption. In my introduction I was telking baout my homestudies. I will continue where I left off now.
Back in October, our Social Worker said that she had too much information at once and she needed some time to put it all together. Keep in mind that she also does child welfare cases as well and that the adoption side is more on her own time. The next time that we got together with her was March. We had a few meetings with her then and our last one was supposed to me on March 16th. However, Mark and I were going on holidays the next day so she didn't want to meet then. So we were told to call her as soon as we got home. Well that was on April 3rd. She was not at her desk so I left a message. Mark also left a message. We also e-mailed her a few times. She did not get back to us until May 1st. We then scheduled our next meeting. It is scheduled for June 1st. Yup. A whole month before we can have a meeting. This is supposed to be our last meeting though. I will let you know how that meeting goes.
As for TTC, we are still trying. My cycles are trying to become regular. Over the last 7 cycles, my average length had been 28 days and the bleeding lasting anywhere from 2-7 days. However, I still don't think that I ovulate. I have given up taking my temp and my fertility monitor has been getting expensive.
I have no strong, burning desire to get PG now or even have a child. I think that I have been trying for so long that I have gone numb. Mark on the other hand is starting that desire really strong. I think it has to do a lot with his just having is 39th birthday. He doesn't want to be an old dad. I suppose that if we are really desperate we could keep putting money away to pay for any procedures or other ways of adopting but right now that money is needed to pay off debt or to do house renos. Getting these 2 things cleared/done will be better once children arrive any way.
Something about me that you may not know if you can't read the old preconception diaries. I run a home daycare out of my home. Currently I have 2 two year olds, a three year old, a six year old and an eight year old in my care. Come September I should have a one and four year old as well. This will put me a about 4 kids full time, but not the same kids all day as I will have half days kids. I enjoy the daycare. It has helped me get through the tough times of having no children of my own. It has also been hard. It has helped Mark realise that he really does want children as the kids go to him a lot for play and he misses them when they go home.
Any way, I should go as these kids will be here soon. I hope that you stick around to read about my adventures in trying to become a mother.
Until next time.
