Trying to juggle career, motherhood and faith while on a long and difficult journey to having a second child. Sunday, 26 June 2011. On every journey there is a longing to be somewhere it will make sense. It might not be the end of the road but it's a place of peace. Today is my seventh wedding anniversary and I am at home with my beautiful family. We are about to start a new adventure - moving home, changing career, starting school and adjusting to the world. We are happy and, above all, still hopeful.

Journey of Hope: September 2010

Trying to juggle career, motherhood and faith while on a long and difficult journey to having a second child. Tuesday, 28 September 2010. Day 21 progesterone = 7. Therefore no ovulation at day 14, which we knew anyway as I had a scan on day 17. In the words of Nurse J, “Not quite as high as we were hoping for.”. So the plan is to move on to 100mg in the next cycle. No surprises there and I’m recovering from the frustration of the nurse. To call on Thursday and not calling until Monday. This will be made ...

Journey of Hope: November 2010

Trying to juggle career, motherhood and faith while on a long and difficult journey to having a second child. Friday, 26 November 2010. Wait a minute. It would have felt terrible. Just four months ago I was in tears several times a week and assessed for depression. I was overwhelmed and sometimes hopeless. I thought about my loss every one of the 575 days between miscarrying my second baby and conceiving my third, even with the great consolation of a healthy and happy little daughter to cuddle. If ever a...

Journey of Hope: One week later
http://janey981.blogspot.com/2011/06/one-week-later.html
Trying to juggle career, motherhood and faith while on a long and difficult journey to having a second child. Friday, 24 June 2011. What Abigail and I have learned so far:. Writing things down lets Abigail set the pace while easing mummy's desire to be in control of everything. It's OK to live in pyjamas for a while, but a good idea to shower and change every day to pretend you aren't! Hand expressing produces just enough milk in 45 minutes to drink in two quick gulps.

Trying to juggle career, motherhood and faith while on a long and difficult journey to having a second child. Monday, 27 December 2010. Things have been busy and we had a lovely time over the Christmas weekend. One of the highlights was a school friend's wedding a few days before Christmas. And for the first time in a few months I felt totally well. I am going to try and surround myself more often with the people who make me laugh until I can't breathe! Although there were moments of deep sadness - can y...

Trying to juggle career, motherhood and faith while on a long and difficult journey to having a second child. Friday, 28 January 2011. Team Pink take an unassailable 3-1 lead in our household! We are now going to have to come up with baby girl names, which for some reason we find much trickier. My husband optimistically said "it could be twin boys next time." But I'm pretty sure he was joking ; ). We are so pleased she looks well and happy. Next time we see her it will be for real. Love from Me x. But th...
