Today we received the 'green light' from the RE. For those of you have not been living and breathing infertility for the past year and a half...RE means doctor (fertility specialist). I swallowed my first birth control pill tonight and will continue for the next two weeks. Interesting...trying to get the sperm to catch the egg for 3 years...and the process begins with birth control. Really?
Tomorrow the doctor will call with my protocol. I am assuming birth control pills (BCP) for 2 weeks, followed by 2 weeks of Lupron injections to shut my ovaries down...then bring on the stimulation drugs! That moment in time will be especially fun for Chris. Poor guy! Whatever.
Okay, so we are excited, nervous, hopeful, cautious, clueless, scared and now-BROKE! The next 8 weeks are going to be interesting to say the least. Fingers crossed we come out of this with a big, smelly, poopy diaper or two or three thousand. We have realized that at this point it is really no longer in our hands. We have put our faith in God and trust that no matter what the outcome, we will come out of this stronger. Chris and I will still be holding each others' hand...just hopefully balancing a baby or two in the other!
