One Step Closer!
Well another step closer...or so I hope! Hysteroscopy and D&C went very well, so much better than I expected or than I could have hoped for! You know how worried I was about the anesthesia and anesthesiologist, well, I had a doctor I've never had before and he was really great. He was so reassuring and had a wonderful bedside manner. It really is amazing how a good bedside manner can make all the difference during times like this! Also, my fave doctor at my clinic was the one performing the procedure. It was quicker than expected, only 10 minutes! Dr. said my uterus was "very clean" and there were no polyps or fibroids, which was confusing since I know I had a fibroid that was discovered about 5 years ago (could it have disappeared?!) Also, on one of my previous sonos, they saw what they thought was polyps which made them want to do the procedure in the first place. In a way, I don't understand why I had this done in the first place but I guess its better to know my uterus is all ready for transfer and will make a good home for my totsicle :)
This procedure has got me thinking today about things.....I was sooo anxious for days leading up to this, and looking back knowing what I now know, I wish I hadn't been so freaked out! It makes me realize how much worrying goes into things beyond our control, and you'd think by now in this IF journey, I would have gotten the memo that there is just soooo much about all of this that is beyond my control. I think that is one of the most frustrating things with IF, that although we think we are doing all the right things and all the things to help us get those BFPs, a lot of times that means nothing. I know the odds are against me with my age, but I'm going to do everything in my power to keep fighting and hope to beat the odds and win this war with IF. I want to thank you all for your amazing support, some of you who are going through so much emotional turmoil, yet you reach out to support me. I can't tell you how appreciative I am for you, and for your generosity of spirit and kindness. Love to you all. xoxo

SO glad it went well for you, I was thinking of you!!! HUGS.
Now let\'s get you to your transfer and ultimately your BFP!
Wonderful update! Yeah the \"beyond our control\" thing causes all of us some stress. Even though DH and I aren\'t TTC, there\'s still a bunch of stuff with adoption that is beyond our control. It\'s frustrating, but we keep thinking there must be a reason for it. Fingers and toes crossed that your totsicle will carry you to 9 months!!!!!
