The Good:
We were able to get pregnant and the baby was growing well
The Bad:
The baby was growing in my fallopian tubes
The Ugly:
The huge shot that I had to get in my butt today to abort the baby
The doctors had told us on Friday that this was a possibility but we were just hoping that everything would work out. I had another sonogram today that confirmed that the baby was growing in my fallopian tubes. I was keeping it together pretty well until my doctor started to cry, then I lost it. The next couple of days are going to be hard as everything has to take its course, but then things can only get better. We are going to take about a month off, get my strength back, and then try again. Third times a charm right?
There are a lot of other good things going on in my life right now. I have an incredible husband that has been nothing but supportive through all of this. My family has also been there every step of the way. I think that my mom cried more then I did today, I am missing my family deeply. My friends have been nothing short of amazing. A fairy came into my house today (Becca Hardie) and had decorated my home with flowers and filled my fridge with food that I needed. Miggy was nice enough to drive me to my appointment and wait in the doctors office with me while they gave me my shot. She did not even laugh at me while I was limping back to the car. My home was also decorated with more beautiful flowers from Tracy, Jeff, and Caitlin. Doug's brother Peter is here visiting us and he came home with flowers...what a man. We are very excited to have him here this week. We will have to post later about all of our adventures.
Thank you to all of you that have been so supportive, I do not say this lightly when I say that you have all given me the strength to keep moving forward. I am truly blessed.

Hi, I am a FOF (Mia) and I stumbled on your Blog, I hope you don't mind if I leave you a comment. I read your post and just wanted to let you know that I can relate to your story and wanted to give you a little hope. I have had 4 eptopic pregnancies (in the tubes) and thought it was hopeless. Those were tough times for my husband and I but...after 5long years of heartache, along came our miracle baby! There he was in the "right" spot and growing like a weed! He truely is our miracle baby. Just take it easy let your mind and body heal, there will be better days. =)

There are no words that seem fitting right now. I am so sorry- I was crushed when I heard the news. I'll be thinking of you and trying to send positive energy your way. You are the poster-girl for strong women. (Doug is the poster-boy too!)
Tamara I am so sorry to hear the news. I wish I was in NY and could come help you in some way! I will be thinking about you.
I'm so sorry Tamara. If there's anything we can do (helping pack? dinner? a night of reality tv?) let us know. We're thinking of you.
Tamara - I am soooooo, soooo sorry! I just know it will happen for you eventually! You will make a great mom and you're right, third time is a charm! You are so strong and positive - it's amazing! I wish I could be more like you in less devestating situations. Stay strong and positive! Love always!
