Each day, each medication is one step closer...

I had an appointment at the clinic yesterday for labs and an ultrasound. The ultrasound looked great so the medications are all working as they should.  They now started me on daily Estrogen pills in addition to my Lupron injections. Estrogen helps stimulate and maintain the endometrial lining of the uterus, so that it grows and can sustain a pregnancy. As we get closer to the transfer date the Estrogen pills increase to 2x a day and then 3x a day. 


E the IM has been so great checking-in on me to make sure everything is going good; I feel so lucky to have such a wonderful team to support me throughout this process. E and I are meeting for sushi lunch this Saturday, I am looking forward to seeing her and am I am excited that I can get in another meal of sushi before transfer.

They did change our transfer date to December 8th. I prefer a weekend transfer day anyways because it should be easier to find a sitter for the kids the day of transfer and less days off of work for Jon while I am on bedrest. I think the hardest part about this process will be the bedrest, I am definitely 'active' with our kids and all of the activities they have going on so hopefully my husband will be 'ready' to take over the big job of 'mom' here for a few days. I have already started checking out Pinterest for some easy felt ornament crafts that I can do from the couch and I suppose I should start recording some Lifetime movies to watch.
