Hump Day

Hey friends! There is not much going on here. I am chugging along and taking my birth control pills. I am starting to get minor headaches. They are not too bad. Let's pray it stays that way. One of my wisdom teeth is getting pulled soon. I never had a tooth puled before, so I am slightly freakin' out! But then again, I want this damn thing out so I can get on with life. My husband's birthday is next week, and I am planning a party for him this Saturday. Maybe I'll post pictures. With all that I have to do on a daily basis, I don't see myself uploading pictures. Just seems too damn complicating. But we'll see. Well I guess that's all for now, so we will chat later. Bye!

Missing In Action...

Ok, so I am a terrible blogger. I apologize, but I am back and I promise more activity. LOL!!
Well, the IVF cycle was a bust. Needless to say I was extremely hurt. Let me take you back a bit. My last post, I was telling you how my ovaries were getting bigger. Well egg retrieval went good. I had a lot of pain for 6 days after. Nothing I couldn't handle though. Egg transfer went exceptionally well. They retrieved 18 eggs. Out of the 18, 6 fertilized.(UGH!!) Out of those six 3 were of pretty good quality. So we knew early on that those other 3 weren't going to make. My hubby and I decided to transfer the 3 good embryos. Then came the 2ww(two week wait). I obsessed over every little symptom. Thanks to the progesterone I was on. It mimicked every single early pregnancy symptom. Anyway, my beta was scheduled for 7/7, which was also my first year wedding anniversary. I knew it would be negative because I had been doing HPTs for a few days prior to the test, and I had got my period the night before beta. So I cried, and cried, and cried.

Later that day, my hubby and I decided to try again. That brings me to where I am today. On 8/17/08, I started the BCP again. So I am gearing up for IVF#2. I decided to do acupuncture which I started in July. I must say that I love it. It is so relaxing. I am also on a vitamin and herb regimen. So i am doing all that I can to get my body in a healthier state. I am confident that this cycle will be a success. I also get nervous because I don't want another failure. It is so easy to tell me "think positive, it will happen". Sometimes that is easier said then done. I am going to put God first and walk on faith. That is all I can do.

So, pray for me and I promise to keep updating you guys on my progress. Feel free to comment! Take care...
