We will try again in October

0 comments
For those of you who hadn't heard by now... we lost our first two embryos. This week has sucked majorly!! I've been depressed for sure and this is the first day I've signed back on to MySpace. I've not wanted to do anything. But now I'm beginning to look forward to October!
We got the news on Tuesday am from my IVF nurse. She's such a sweetheart, but I still broke down on the phone with her... I'm crying again even as I type this. Enough with the crying already!!!! But what really impressed me the most was that an hour after I spoke with Krissy, our IVF nurse, the Dr called me personally to extend his condolences. He told us he'd reviewed our case and thinks he's pinpointed the problem. We will be doing several things differently on the next go round thanks to the lovely effects that my PCOS has on my body. So for now, I'm still avoiding the sugar and gearing up for many more shots (about 30 more than last time at least) which should begin in mid October. The Dr and I agreed that my body needs a break for now.
On a more positive note, I'm sooooo happy my brother made it out of this week without a scratch! He had the week from hell too, but as Dana says in her blog, definitely had a guardian angel or two watching over him. I dedicate the song on my page to him, and he'll know why even if the rest of you think I'm crazy...LOL
I am looking forward to a much needed vacation starting next Friday. I'm waiting for Sami to get home now so that we can go out shopping for a couple of items to plan for our trip. It's almost our little ritual now - before we go to Vegas, we have to buy new shoes!

I'm on bed rest for the next two days. Damn, life's a bitch isn't it! lol
Today went well. The Dr said he picked the two embryos that looked the most like Sami - big and round - and put them back in. Hopefully they will implant today or tomorrow so I'm in bed until Friday.
I'm having to eat pineapple twice a day now until our pregnancy test. We should find out next Saturday if we are pregnant or not!! I can't wait!
