I love that my husband is home!
We have a consultation scheduled with our RE in two weeks. Michael's travel schedule is pretty light in October/November, so we're hoping to schedule IVF in that time frame. I'm nervous about the whole thing.
Here I was all worried that my period would start too soon, and now I'm wondering if it will ever start! Maybe I'll call today and ask the nurse if I should be concerned.
On my first day on WW I managed to go over my points allotment by 12.5 points, thank you very much! I was doing fine until we went to his parents' for dinner. I can't pass up his mom's cooking - she's a great cook. So, I'll have to watch it today, and try to get some exercise.
We're shopping for a lawnmower on Craig's List. Michael is the new gardener. I think this will be good for both of us. I'll get out there and care for my plants while he grooms the lawn. We learned from one of my brothers-in-law (I have seven of those now!) that we need a rotary, not a reel mower. Michael was all set to get a reel mower until we had that conversation, and that would not be good for our (mostly) fescue lawn. Who knew?
I guess that's it for now. Have a good one!
About Me

- Southern California, United States
- We all know life can change in an instant, and mine has. I was enjoying my life as a newlywed, savoring every day with my wonderful husband, and trying to overcome infertility when we learned in May of 2009 that he has kidney cancer. Now, our focus is on his health. Through our struggles with infertility my faith in Christ grew, and now I can face this new challenge knowing that we are in His hands.

I am thinking good thoughts for your IVF! I have to say, sometimes it is difficult for me to read, because it brings back so many mmemories of our IF. It is such a rollercoaster...
Joannah, honey, those meds will make each and every cycle different from what you are used to. Acupuncture might help you feel more "normal" amidst all of this. I loved it myself & have heard that it is even more useful when doing IVF.

Glad Michael is home! Will be thinking lots of good thoughts for you guys during this next step. Hugs!
Hooray for husbands being home!!!
Hi there J,
I have been a faithful reader of your blogg for a couple of months(just havent commented until today!)
Just wanted to let you know that I have gone through all the pain and heartache that you are going through right now and that I today sit here with a 9 month old daughter!
I am praying that you very soon will experience the same joy!
Keep the faith--and NEVER give up!
