Update

So I've heard I left a lot of people high and dry.  Sorry 'bout that.  Our news in Indy wasn't exactly what we wanted to hear.  It took a few days to get over the news and to move on.  I had the ultrasound and found that I wasn't progressing as far as they thought I would.  Big surprise, I know.  My body just seems to do what it wants to do.  There were a couple of follicles, but they weren't very big.  They left me with instructions to increase my meds and have another ultrasound in South Bend on Tuesday June 12. 

Our trip to Indy wasn't completely wasted.  We were able to hang out with our very dear friend.  We went to the Children's Museum in Indy (it was 90 degrees and there was no way we were going to survive the zoo) and went out for a very good sushi dinner.

I will keep the best news for last.  On Tuesday June 12, the ultrasound tech in South Bend didn't see much and thought I would be back to see her later in the week.  I got a call later that afternoon from Dr Jarrett's office stating he wanted me down in Indy on Thursday June 14 for an IUI!! I have no idea what he saw or what the tech didn't see, but an IUI is what we did.  Now we wait.  I wait like all the other normal women out there.  I am trying to stay positive, but realistic, if that makes any sense?  We are super excited and look forward to knowing what the future holds.  Now that your "in the know" :) we ask for prayers. 

I Lied

I lied, I'm super nervous. Not just the butterflies in my tummy nervous, but like, I could cry nervous. We are so close! Don't get me wrong, the excitement is still there, but the nerves are taking over! :) Please pray for safe travels, for Breslin to be a good girl while we are gone and that we get some good news! Thanks everyone!

It's Getting Closer

Saturday is almost here! I am so excited! I am more excited then nervous.  I am anxious to find out what we are going to do.  Will it be an IUI or IVF?  Either way, its a step in the right direction.   I had an incredible weekend, not only was it my birthday, but I found out we were approved for a loan for the IVF, if we need to go that route.  This was a huge weight that was taken off my shoulders and when I found out, I cried.  I was so nervous that we wouldn't be able to get all the money together in time, and everything seems to have fallin into place.  I started my meds this past Saturday and so far, I've felt great, another Blessing.   I called our very dear friend who lives in Indy and asked if she would be around this weekend so we could stay with her, and she will be! So we have a place to stay, another Blessing.  I also called our wonderful friends here in Indiana and asked if they could watch Breslin and they were also available, another Blessing.  

We are very greatful to everyone who is walking on this path with us.  If it weren't for your endless support, prayers and optimism, I don't know where I would be.  THANK YOU!!!  I know that Brett Thanks you as well, its not easy keeping me on the trek forward and it would be a very hard job if he had to do it on his own :)

Please pray for my appt on Saturday.  All that will take place is an ultrasound.  This ultrasound will determine which route we take.  I'm super excited!!!

So Proud

I know this is a little off subject, but I just couldn't hold it in.  I am one proud wife! Brett and I went to Edwardsburg High School Graduation on Sunday and I loved sitting with Brett and having him point out all of his students that graduated.  There were a couple of students that needed some extra help so they could graduate, and with Bretts help, we were able to watch them walk across the stage.  All of the hard work and dedication that Brett puts into his students, is truly inspiring.  I am very, very proud of him.
