AF showed, of course!

But she was expected and this is the first month in a LONG time I have not shed tears over AF coming!  I was prepared and ready for the next part of the IF journey.....IVF...OMG, I can't believe it....I'll say it again.....IVF! To be honest, I never thought Kirk and I would have to go this far.  I was sure that bam, once I started seeing my RE, he would cure me and I would be pregnant.  Then again, I never thought I would have had to go to a RE so.... I'm scared....I'm horrified of the whole process....however, I am excited all at the same time.  THis is my last week for Starbucks:)  All other bad habits have been long gone but my morning caffeine has been hard to let go. Prayers are welcome and appreciated during this life-changing event for us...please also pray that I don't clinically go insane!

I never thought I\'d need IVF (or and RE or any of this crap). I know you are worried but IVF really isn\'t that bad. You\'ve got tons of friends with experience and we will get you through - and I really believe this WILL do the trick! So, get excited, girl! You are going to be a momma SOON!

It is an overwhelming feeling moving onto the next step of treatments but exciting at the same time because it brings about new hope. I know what you mean about thinking you would never have to go as far as you have.... You are always in my prayers and hoping that all the treatments don\'t knock you around too much.

This is such a life changing experience that we never dreamed as girls that we would have to go through. Unfortunately, we have been dealt this hand and life and God is right there with us to deal with it. Remember He is in control, there is nothing you can do to change anything..... just do as you are supposed to. This is how I thought of it, once implantation happens, you are pregnant, now you just have to stay pregnant. Good Luck! Enjoy your last week of coffee..... I can\'t wait to have my first cup when I get done breastfeeding in about 6 mo or so.
