| Since moving in to our new home, there seem to be a lot of projects to be done here. For now I will discuss the first thing that I am excited about doing. It is composting. Now that we have to take care of our own trash, I am starting to notice the amount of garbage we’re throwing in the trash. We do recycle religiously, but |

| One Day At A Time |
| Published: July 25, 2008, 2:19 pm |
| My gyno didn't phone me yesterday after his receptionist had said he would the day before. I am not surprised. Communication with my gyno has felt very stilted all along.So all I can do is take it one day at a time. I will just go with what my Dr suggested and have another round of blood tests and see what results come out of those. It is a |

| Took my last prenatal vitamin yesterday |
| Published: July 24, 2008, 2:22 pm |
| I'm a little confused as to what I should be doing right now now that I'm somewhere between being properly diagnosed with ovarian failure and half-way through a cycle after round three of Clomid. (day 16 today). My temperature is so very low right now; it is obvious (to me) that I am in another annovulatory cycle.I phoned my gyno surgery |

| jealous? |
| Published: July 23, 2008, 4:40 pm |
| For some reason (most probably boredom!) I started watching The Secret Life of the American Teenager. This is a show about a teenager getting pregnant and I somehow watching it makes me jealous. Not of a teenager getting pregnant but anybody who gets pregnant. Stupid, huh? I guess I am just really ready for it now. I am not a |

| Published: July 23, 2008, 3:34 pm |
| I've started (slowly) telling friends and family about my "news". Each time I tell someone it makes it more real, my denial is chipped away just a little bit more and I am forced to accept my reality. Boy do I hate it. I am so very, very angry with God right now. As my husband said this morning I will need to forgive God. I know. But I have a way |

| For the last twenty-two months I have been focused on TTC. I have taken herbs and vitamins (under the direction of a herbalist), had acupuncture appointments, taken Provera and Clomid and even had surgery all in the hope of "improving" my fertility. I have also eliminated caffeine from my diet, cut out sugary foods and recently switched to foods |

| Since the husband is busy working, I am starting to find ways to fix things around the house myself. Of course, they're only small things. I still have to learn how to do the electrical wirings and plumbing. There was a broken shelf/tray in our refrigerator. What's a woman to do? Krazy Glue! Just clean the tray (seems like we've |

| The septate uterus is not the only type of congenital uterine defect, unfortunately. The bicornuate uterus is somewhat like the septate uterus, only it’s not as much divided as is it that the uterus is misshapen. While some say ‘heart shaped’, the bicornuate uterus actually looks more like a ram’s horns |

| It's all a bit surreal |
| Published: July 21, 2008, 3:08 pm |
| What a strange place to be in. My Dr phoned me yesterday to talk about my recent blood test results. She expressed concern about my unusually high FSH levels which were at 86 this cycle on Day 2. She agreed that another cycle of blood tests need to be done after which a letter will be sent to my gyno. She said she'd always been quite optimistic |

| Two days before I was scheduled' to have my period, I started bleeding. There was a mix of feelings that day: disappointment because I knew it was my period; confusion because for the first couple of hours, it was brownish in color, which, when I searched online, it was a possible symptom of implantation bleeding. I was so |

| A septate uterus, or uterine septate, is actually a defect in the uterus that forms while a woman is still in utero. Instead of developing normally, the uterus develops with a division. Sometimes, the dividing tissue, called a septum, does not fully divide the uterus but instead only extends a little way into the womb. For others, |
