I'm So Excited...


I think this picture is totally appropriate as all of this waiting makes me anxious to get pregnant! I talk to IM almost every other day or so. We talk about what this journey will be like. We talk of hopes and dreams and calendars and schedules. And so, I wait for lawyers to do their thing. It's a bit like a tennis match with volleys back and forth only there is sometimes a lag on one side. Doesn't make the game any less exciting, but the anticipation of bouncing the ball back into the other side's court provides quite the burst of adrenaline now and then. It's so much nicer this time. There haven't been any surprises...just some legal clarification of terms and stipulations. I have to say, I do grow tired of the contracts stage and am anxious to move on to more "fun" things like picking out green nail polish for the transfer! :)
I am due to start Aunt Flo (AF) on Monday. I'm supposed to be doing a mock cycle sometime soon and I think the Nurse Coordinator (NC) is supposed to be ordering me some Estrace and calling in some birth control pills? I question this because I haven't heard from her yesterday or today and she goes on vacation tomorrow, I believe. It's fine if I need to wait until she gets back, I just want to be sure I'm not messing up the dates for the cycle. This is all still pretty new to me and I'm not always sure of the time frames.

I do know that the Egg Donor (ED) and I have some scheduling issues on the same weekend so we opted to push back the transfer for a little bit. I think the last date I heard was August 16th (correction...17th). Sounds like a good day to me.

Juli-I didn't do much playing. Michael Zamora and I sat behind the courts and jacked around during tennis! LOL But yes, thank you!
