My Reproductive Nightmare

Here we go again.

zoot

I was practicing my affirmation a few weeks ago – writing in the margins of my book. Every time the author instructed me to think positively about something, I wrote it in the margin. One of the things in my life bringing out the negative, is my difficulty having another child. So, instead of thinking like that, I was trying to train myself to use positive affirmations. I’m not saying it worked miracles or anything…but how’s this for timing?

  8. You know I’m completely utterly ecstatic for you and I’m so honored you spilled the beans on my lil ol’ blog first. 😉 I’m keeping all fingers and toes crossed for you and the little one.

    I *desperately* wanted us both to be pregnant at the same time. 🙂

  9. YES!!

    You deserve all good things! This is such great news! I am happy happy happy for you and all the Zs…

  15. Hmm … Just thought I’d add that today I lost my great grandmother. She lived to be 100 years old, and would’ve reached 101 in two weeks. I guess this is the cycle of life: an old soul dies, a new one comes to life …

  19. OMG that made me jump!!! I’m so happy for you!!!! Congratulations! I’ll be thinking healthy, sticky thoughts for you for the next 9 months!

  20. OMGOMGOMG!!!! Earlier today, when I was reading a couple of your recent posts, I was thinking what a great mom you are and how I hope your wonderful family continues to grow, and VOILA! This is an absolute SQUEE moment in blogland! Congrats and God Bless!

  32. Add my WOOHOOs to the outcry! I’m so happy for you and your family-you DO deserve these good things!

  36. And my body?

    Not quite so ready. But I DON’T CARE.

    And isn’t that the worst part? I know my body could take it. But am I really ready to risk it?

    That is fucked up.

    Yes. I am

  46. I feel like an idiot. I’m sitting here with tears in my eyes because I’m so happy for you.

  64. Congratulations Zoot!! I know how badly you and MrZ want this, and wish you all the best in the months to come. Woohoo!!

    p.s.
    all your talk about the marathons ALMOST got me into running. now, it’s your notes in the margins. not that i’m hoping for babies in the near future, but i could definitely use some positivity.

    *heads off to archives to figure out exactly what that book is*
