3 weeks!

Three weeks from today we will be boarding a plane to come back home from Detroit with 2 baby embryos safely nestled in my womb. That will be the most pregnant I've ever been and it's strange to think that right now I am soon to be pregnant. We know that there is no guarantee that I will stay pregnant but for the days following the embryo transfer until my first blood draw I will be the happy mommy of two more little ones.

I started my meds on Sunday and so far it's been easy. All I am doing is applying new estrogen patches every other day and taking a baby aspirin every day. I will go in for an ultrasound next Thursday to make sure my lining has thickened and then if all goes well I will start on progesterone and a couple other things a week after my ultrasound. Then, I will be ready for the frozen embryo transfer on October 2nd! I am getting excited!

Through all of this I continue to remind myself that the Lord is in control. We have prayed earnestly for guidance about how to build our family and we have been clearly led to this place. Now, we trust God to do as He wills and we hold fast to the hope that we will soon be parents again to one or two little embryo babies who need a loving home to grow up in. But, even if these babies don't survive we will trust in the good plans God has for our family.
