IVF & My Mom

Yesterday was a big day for me and Clint and our little family.... I started my meds for our first In Vitro Fertilization Cycle. For those of you who weren't aware that we were even trying to do in vitro I will give you the quick run down. We have been trying to have another baby pretty much since we had our precious little Ruby. Even though I would go month after month being depressed and feeling so alone I kept holding out hope that we were just another "normal couple" and that I would just one month be pregnant..... well that hasn't happened and I hit my breaking point. Poor Clint has had to deal with every type of emotion from me. He has been so great through everything, I really do feel so bad for him. Anyway..... yesterday was my appointment to find out whether or not we could move forward with the in vitro.... and we got the go ahead..... finally some good news. I really was expecting worse. Now every night I have to give myself 2 shots. Normally I would make Clint do it, but he is out of town. So i just figured that I would do it, I mean after all I want this so badly I would do anything. However, I couldn't do it!!!!!! Good thing I have my mom! She has done it for two nights now and will have to continue to do it or the next week or so. Aren't moms the best??????? Thanks mom. I love you

  4. Wow, you are so brave for even trying to do it on your own! I have the hugest fear of needles!! Moms are the best. :) I had no idea that you've been having such a hard time, lately. I'm so sorry! I've been hearing this same story a lot lately, with my friends too. Hopefully things go well for you and you get the "result" that you are looking for soon! ;)
