Today's Appointment and BFF's

Our appointment went really well today.  I had blood drawn that will be sent out to the lab and then had an ultrasound to see how many follicles are present.  She said the more the better and that I had a lot.  :-)  She said that I have "happy ovaries."  I was pretty excited by my happy ovaries.  That means that I won't have to have ovulation stimulation.  So the next step is for both Dave and I to go get some blood work done at the lab and then on April 9th I go for a mock run through to see exactly where they will implant the embryos.  Then on April 11th we go for a consultation with the doctor where she will go over all of the test results and where we go from there.  I started taking birth control today and I have to be on that for 3-6 weeks.  I am praying that it will be the 3 weeks but if it is for the 6 weeks that's ok too.  What ever it takes to work!

If all goes well I could be pregnant in 6 weeks.  I still can't believe that this is all starting.  I am really getting ahead of myself and thinking about names and how to paint the nursery.  I can just see our baby and imagine what it will feel like to fall in love all over again.  But one step at a time.  I need to slow down and just take it as it comes.  I am so thankful that we are being given this opportunity.

This evening was really nice too.  Dave and Logan got to have a "man's night" and went to see The Lorax.  I got to meet up with Tulsi (My best friend since I was 12) and see The Hunger Games.  It was really nice to have some time together and the boys got to spend some quality time together.  She has been  there for me through everything for the past 17 years.  They are moving to Texas at the end of the month so I am pretty bummed that she won't physically be here but i know she will always be a phone call away.  I told her to be prepared for me to call her hysterical and all cracked out on hormone injections.  For those of you that know me, you know how much of an emotional person I am.  I am worried to see how emotional I will be when I start the medication!  We should buy stock in kleenex!
