My road to TTC

I haven't posted in a while and my friend asked me to read her blog so  I thought about all the events that has gone on in the last month and wanted to share. My clomid cycle #2 had many ups and downs, I took my meds and went in for my 21 day progesterone test showing that I had not ovulated. Well low and behold within 2 weeks I took a HPT thinking it was a OPK. I didn't know that they placed a free HPT in the box and just grabbed a stick, well I took my shower and once I got out I checked to see if I had the magic dark second line and I did... Well that second line was actually a BFP as I saw out of the corner of my eye this test said Pregnant Not Pregnant on the side instead of it saying EPT Ovulation Test. I was estactic and ran to tell DH. I emailed my doctor and waited the 48 hours for her to respond, she finally called and wanted me to come into the office as soon as possible this was Friday so I had to wait the long weekend before I could get the official positive from my doctor. The weekend passed as any other until Saturday night. I started spotting and would not allow myself to stress because it was just implantation bleeding, I didn't tell DH at that time. Sunday morning my heart broke I began my cycle full force with a lot of cramping and I knew that my excitement was to be short lived. I went through the day and night cramping and crying because the pregnancy that I so hoped for had come to an end as soon as it began, I went into the doctors office and my HCG was very low so the Doctor said that it was possibly a blighted ovum and not a real pregnancy. I still have been unable to grasp what happened but put my big girl painties on and started my clomid cycle 3. I am currently trying to keep my thoughts positive and my eye on the prize as we cross our fingers that we hit the "jackpot" this month.
