The Big Try

So several weeks ago, Hubby and I decided to try one more time for another girl.  Even though I'm not the ideal weight, and keeping up with these two rugrats is already exhausting, I just don't feel like I'm "done" yet.  And with 40 fast approaching, I guess I better get "done."

At any rate, I went off the pill at the beginning of March, had my withdrawal bleed on the 5th, and have now been awaiting the start of a "real period," so we could start trying "for real."  And you know what?  It's an experience that's both exciting and depressing.  We didn't have many opportunities to "try" this month, and even though I didn't have a real period, I still couldn't help myself from hoping maybe we'd been successful right off the bat - or maybe I was staring too long at baby girl clothes at Target.  Daughter is on board, and outside of my sister and Hubby's - those are the only people we've told about our plans so far.  Well, except for Daughter's granddaddy, because Hubby just can't stop himself from talking around those people.

For now, this will simply be my place to blog about trying to beat the big 4-0 biological clock, and our success or failure at such.  I have prayed and told God that I am OK either way, and I just want His will to be done.

So....I guess we'll see.
