Kara's Journey to Glow
Hello, I'm Kara.
I'm 24 and my husband is 26. We have been actively trying for 3 1/2 years. And when I say active I mean I chart my cycle and try to BD around ovulation. I take it seriously and have tried countless natural tips and tricks. I am not sure how I feel about pumping medication into my body that might not even help achieve pregnancy. I feel like being on the depo shot for years played a part in my issues. We have never used protection ( 6years together) and I have not been on BC since I was 17.
My Gyno recommend changing my diet and referred me to a specialist without running any kind of tests. I never saw the specialist because we couldn't afford it. And my insurance wouldn't cover a thing, and I don't have thousands hidden under my mattress. She did say given the issues I told her I was having that Endometriosis is most likely the issue. I would need a surgery to confirm 100%.
I try to stay positive that I'll get to be a mommy one day. It's frustrating not having answers and not knowing how to get them. My husband is so supportive and caring. He's been my rock through the years. He has a child from a pervious relationship who lives states away (we do see her). We want to start our own family and if he could make my dream come true, he would. When you want something so bad but it doesnt happen for you its heartbreaking. I never knew when we started to really try that it would weigh so heavy on my heart.
I'm hoping to meet people on here for support, who understand the struggle, and make new friends through this journey.
Currently I'm 2 days late. Which really means nothing because I have been almost a month late before. But despite it all I try to have faith that one day we will see that Bfp! Fingers crossed :)
