Here is some background for those of you who do not know. Nate and I went to kindergarten together at CPLS and then grew up together at TBC. We were good friends throughout high school, even though he would never ask me out. We finally reconnected at a wedding and 3 months later we had our first date. One year later we got married, Dec 2, 2006 and on May 27th, 2009 we welcomed our son into the world. Life has been hectic ever since but could not even dream of a world without the two of them.
Landon just turned two a month ago and still is not talking. He is saying one word and is refusing to string words together. We are at the point where we are deciding whether or not to refer him to speech specialist. He will say ball and other words with prompting but he doesn't seem to want to speak more. He babbles but we are unable to make out what he says. It is a fine line. Dr. Cooley recommends that we wait and see, boys are always behind but I feel like he should be talking more.
Most people that know us do not know that in January we found out we were expecting baby #2 in October, which is a big deal for us because I have PCOS(Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) and I do not ovulate on my own. We conceive both Landon and baby #2 on Clomid. We were so excited and thought we were out of the woods for a miscarriage when we hit the 10weeks mark, but when we went to the doctor March 11th, we found out we had a miscarriage around 6 weeks. It was devastating. We have begun the healing process and are trying again.
This time around, I decided that it was time to go and see a RE (reproductive endocronologist). We have decided that it was the right time to go see a specialist. I have decided that I need to find out more about PCOS and treatment. Plus hopefully the RE will help us conceive #2. Our appointment with Dr. Stewart is going to be next tuesday, July 12th.
We know that God had a plan for us. The hardest part of that is not knowing the plan. We may just have one child or we may be blessed with more. Only God knows where He wants us to go. We just ask for prayers for peace and patience as we see others around us get pregnant and have healthy pregnancies. It is not that we are not happy for others, we are, but we want this for ourselves too.
I hope to keep up with this weekly and blog about our journey through life.
