We are on the launching pad to begin this first IVF cycle. A FE nurse called to remind me "no more pills" a couple days ago and confirmed me for tomorrow's injection instruction and beginning shots. I will post a thorough protocol after I've been schooled.
Well guys, I feel optimistic, relaxed, and... thoroughly committed to enjoying my life aside from IVF. Because, yes, I have a (really good) life aside from this. I admit that I have become tunnel-visioned at times about TTC, but I remain a happy person, open-minded and ready for what comes my way. We will do whatever it takes (within reason) to become pregnant and have a child to raise, but some things in life you just can't "make happen," you can only open the doors. And you know what, I am actually ok with that. For real. It doesn't mean I want it any less than anyone else, it just means that I know I'll be ok, and still whole, if it doesn't happen. That's just my truth.

If you're reading and in a different emotional place right now, I hope you're better soon. I take nothing for granted. I promise. And I send you a big hug with a virtual flower.

hi Thalia - no kidding. me too.
How exciting! Not too long now and you'll be waiting like me to see if the embies stick! Isn't it strange to be so excited for AF!
What a great outlook! Take care and good luck with your cycle.
