A Bump in the road

I first have to start by saying how thankful I am to be in such an amazing Doctors care. As I type this update we are about 20 days from starting IVF so exciting and nerve wrecking at the same time. Today our Fertility specialist called with results and information for us, all my testing has come back and there was one result he is concerned with but nothing that will cancel our IVF or stop us from becoming parents. We will be delayed in our transfer as we need to go over some items with our dr. better safe than sorry. I am so thankful for the amazing care we are receiving. I feel now knowing what we do that all our failed attempts were for a good reason. Nature said No and science is saying YES! I was reminded today about a story that went around on social media it was about a person complaining to God why did you let me sleep in? and other whys? God answered and said I let you sleep in because if you would have been on time you would have been in a bad car accident. point being I feel all our failed attempts were to put us where we are now and I am so grateful!

20 days till IVF begins!!! I will keep you all updated cant wait!

Medicine is here and we start our countdown!



Its beginning to become real!!! Medications arrived and let me tell you there were a ton of needles, and from someone who used to be scared of needles it was a tad bit much. I unloaded the box and then a new emotion set in I went from being scared of the needles to thankful and excited, these medications are going to help Greg and I achieve our goal to be parents!! We now are in count down mode we have not even a month till we begin IVF and I can't even begin to tell you how excited we are to get started!

COUNTDOWN GOALS!

Since we have about a month little less we have decided to relax and enjoy, NO STRESS going into IVF! We spent this weekend doing just that. Friday we went to hobby lobby and got some Project life items to start our album for IVF. For those of you who do not know what project life is its a scrapbook type photo album that is done weekly, we thought this would be perfect to look back on and show our little ones. Can't wait to get started on that as well! Saturday we went and got my computer all fixed up and working again (thats why I am back blogging) and had dinner and fun with some of our friends. Sunday we spent the day relaxing and watching the big superbowl game. Nothing super special but all relaxing and no stress!

I will try my best to update and keep you all posted on our countdown activities and any other important things!


Until then thank you all for your love and support!
