There's No Turning Back Now!

I'm excited. I'm scared out of my mind. I'm nervous. I'm anxious. I'm everything! We're signed up for the August/September In-Vitro series.

Some people decide they want to get pregnant, and just close the door and drop their clothes. We get to go a different route. We pay our $3800 in July and by the $300 worth of drugs here shortly. I DO get to do the naked, closed door thing, but none of that includes my husband being in the room!

I use to be really good at giving myself injections. In fact, by the time I finished injections during my pregnancy with the boys, I'd given myself around 300 injections, and Dan (and his sister Kim) had given me about 60. It's crazy to think about starting all of that again. CRAZY! I'm not a needle person AT ALL. Needles scare the crap out of me, so the idea of injecting myself daily is intimidating.

There are 5 frozen embryos. Injections start July 26th. Until then, the anxiety builds and emotions run high. Check back in July for the injection and ultrasound details!
