Not so good news...

Well I went in for my blood test yesterday and received a call that it was negative. I was so heartbroken and I was sitting in a restaurant with my nephew and good thing because I almost broke down. I feel like I have done everything I possible could and still no positive pregnancy test. I feel like this is all my fault and wonder what else could be wrong. The doctors say that everything is fine but if we are not getting pregnant than what. I am so mad and upset and wish I could just snap my fingers and get pregnant. Kevin keeps telling me its out of my control and there's nothing I can do and stop stressing about it. I'm glad that he gets happy and sad with me and understands what I'm going through. He was really bummed when I told him the news. So now I'm just waiting for my period to start so we can start a new cycle of hormones, mood swings, ultrasounds, blood work and being poked and prodded :)

If anyone is interested I also bought Vitex and Maca Root and going to start taking these. Vitex is a vitamin, does not contain hormones and to promote fertility. And of course there are side effects so I'll have to keep an eye on it. Maca Root is a vitamin as well and does not contain hormones. It helps with infertility and comes from the root of a turnip grown in Ecuador and Peru. It also helps men with their sperm count and mobility. So women if your men have problems have them try this vitamin. They say men should take 1,500-3,000 mg a day. Here's more info on it: http://www.livestrong.com/article/350433-benefits-of-maca-root-on-fertility/. I'm so excited to start trying both of these and have Kevin start taking maca root. You never know this may be what we've been missing :)

Have a great weekend!
