I just finished reading the blog of the woman that founded My IVF Alternative, the place that arranged our trip and treatment to the Czech Republic. She struggled to conceive for 5 years and finally had a daughter through a surrogate. Then, while pondering the use of a surrogate for their second child, she found out the cause of her several miscarriages was due to a fibroid in her uterus. It was my doctor here in Atlanta that discovered it. So, several months later, she's expecting a baby girl in a few months. People often ask if I get upset when I hear of other people's pregnancies. For instance, one of my dear college BFFs just announced she's expecting identical twins after years and years of infertility. My answer is always the same. I'm THRILLED for these people. All pregnancies are miracles. I would never let jealousy in or begrudge someone of their happiness. It sucks that everyone has kids and it's a club that Dan and I are desperately trying to join, but I still hold the belief that our day will come. And all those people that are having babies will thrilled and cheering us on as well.
Dan's recovery is still going well. He has some pain now and then but nothing he can't handle. He goes at the end of March for a sperm analysis and to see if he has any swimmers yet. Praying!!! So we are living life as if nothing is standing in our way. I'm monitoring my ovulation cycles, taking prenatal vitamins, blah blah blah. I will post again once there is some news. In the meantime, thanks for your support.
