This week has been a blur for me. It started off like any other week, but as the days went on it got better and better! Anxiously waiting to hear from the fertility nurse this week, I thought the days would drag.
Monday I had a tooth pulled, which threw off my week from the start because I'm not use to not working all day on Mondays. All day Tuesday I thought it was Monday, oops! Then Wednesday came, and I knew it was going to be a great day because this was when I could finally connect with the nurse! I didn't know what to expect but I was ready for anything!
The conversation was short and sweet, which I'm kind of glad because I don't think I heard much after her telling me as soon as my next cycle starts...time to start hormones. WHAT?! Just that simple! She gave me a few other things to remember and then the line went dead.
It was impossible for me not to be excited about this. I told myself that I was going to take this on calmly and not get too overly excited, but who was I kidding?! There have been several moments throughout this journey that I got my hopes up only for there to be a bump waiting for me. Thankfully they have been minor bumps! Nevertheless, I am not letting them dampen my excitement.
Friday morning started like every other Friday. Wake up, get the kids up, eat breakfast, go to work...well it didn't stay that normal for long! I found out that I got to start hormones NOW! Pretty sure I did a happy dance at that moment, and a smile came on so quick that I haven't been able to wipe it off yet. My only wish was that I could see the faces of my IP's the moment their dreams started to become a reality. I was happy with an email though. :)
So here is what is actually happening...I do not have to use the menopause hormones (yay!) So now I am taking an estrogen hormone for a couple weeks. This is helping my body get prepare for the transfer and baby. I have a couple of ultrasounds schedule to make sure the hormones are working, and then I will add another hormone. Then at the end of this month will be our transfer!!!
I am taking all the precautions I can to make sure everything goes smoothly, and the main one is to take one step at a time. I am focusing on the positive in all aspects of my life, and trusting God with everything.
This has been a long time coming, and I thank all of my family and friends for their continued support and prayers! Keep it coming because it's getting good now!
