WTF?
Um, how to make the infertile blogging world hate you? (or how effin unfair is the world?)
So, yeah good thing we spent THOUSANDS on infertility treatment.
Apparently, when the good ole' doctor-our Reproductive Endocrinologist- told us my 'eggs were crap,' and that we wouldn't likely ever have a child on our own --she was pulling a fast one-hey, who doesn't want a beach house?
That my ovaries like to fvck with me. Because after thousands of dollars of drugs-they produced three misshappen and sooooo sad too-small eggs. That cancelled my IVF.
That while I'd love to give birth tomorrow and bring a new baby home.....I'm not excited about *being* pregnant. The pukiness. The sleepiness. The weight. Wearing maternity clothes.
That I am less nervous this time-I am not running out of the door to get beta after beta. But I know that I will be doubly sad if something happens.
That the constant cramping is freaking me out-because if I miscarry--I now know the utter utopia this could result in.
That I didn't even know we had sex last month.
Yep. I am. At least for now.
The picture isn't of mine--I am too tired to download the pictures from my iphone.
But this is what it looks like. (FMU this morning). Doctor on Friday.
Wow! So cool! Unexpected, but I have been lagging behind on your blog, and now this incredible news! Congratulations!

congratulations! I can relate to how you are feeling. After I was grappling with the shock of getting pregnant this time, the second time, a wise friend hit the nail on the head when she said: "It was supposed to be easy the first time, and it was supposed to be hard the second time."
I hope it all works out. Best of luck. Please keep us posted!

You're a legend, just like me!!!! I was PISSED at first - PISSED. All that money and then this? But 22 weeks later it's a very good thing:-). Good luck!

Best of luck!
And I say you take your good things where you can take them.
(But I am also a little in awe and/or scared of you-- we were due within a day last time, and you went longer, and I am sooooooooo not ready for next round yet. You go, grrrl.)

You know, whatever the future brings - it brings. For now? I'm going to pee my pants a little for you. :O)
Posted by: allison | July 15, 2009 at 21:26
Holy crap!?!
Wow.
I love that you're proving the RE so very wrong.
Thinking lots of positive and very sticky thoughts for you!
