Snowflake Tattoo in Vegas

Mike got this tattoo today while we are in Vegas. It is a culmination of two concepts we both put together. There isn't a single line, it's all just tiny dots.


I asked him if he was sure he wanted to because it could mean he would have to explain the meaning behind it. He will make up funny jokes like "my wife is a snowflake princess" or something like that. I also asked him if he was sure that he wanted to get it in case our donor FET's don't work. Then it would be a constant reminder of that pain. He says it's more about our journey and how close it has made us in our marriage. It's also meant to be a positive omen. One to look at for hope and to affirm that this is going to work!

I post this to vent, and to bring awareness to the true struggles of infertility. Shining a light on the darkness that plagues some people's lives with no one knowing. Suffering in the shadows is part of the greatest pain." I got a huge outpouring of support and people have told...

Waiting for Biopsy Results

3 days until my biopsy and I'm feeling very anxious. This waiting in between is awful. Many of the women on my FB group have transferred this month and many have gotten their BFP's. Makes me feel like I'm not part of the 'club'. Thankfully I have my art show to keep me busy. I worked my butt off this weekend prepping and getting everything branded and ready to go. Now I'm back to the slower pace at work as well. Though that's good - it gives me too much time to wonder and worry I guess.

Got my new protocol today.

Well. Things are moving along! I got a call from the ART lab in Florida today. They have sent my protocol to HFI and my prescriptions to a pharmacy in Ohio. I am to get my ultrasound and blood work on January 16 at HFI. Then wait for CD1 and we have a projected transfer date of February 10!
