Progress update

The excitement is still very much buzzing now that we are 2 weeks into hormones, but they are definitely calming me down as well. Which is probably a good thing for the people around me! I just wanted to give a little update for everyone...

Like I said we are 2 weeks in now and I am definitely feeling the side effects from the estrogen. I have been getting daily headaches, but they are not severe so I am grateful for that. I started with a small dose and have had to increase a couple times so I am aware of different side effects now. Besides the headaches I have been feeling like I do when I have low blood sugar, but this happens after I eat so I know it's the estrogen. It usually doesn't last long, so yet again I am grateful for that. The biggest thing is the calmness. It's hard to describe but I am just all around calmer. Not a bad thing, but very different than what I am use to.

Overall things are going really well and my ultrasounds are showing the estrogen is doing its job so we have the go ahead to continue with the progesterone.

We are coming up on our transfer day VERY quickly now and I ask that you keep us in your thoughts and prayers. This is something that will forever be a part of our lives, and the kids, Eric, and I are so excited for it!

Stay tuned for the post that will forever change me...
