{Moving Forward and Options}


I am relieved and happy to report that we are moving forward with our fertility treatments!

I thought I could/should wait a year or so to raise all of the money, but Ben and I feel strongly we need to just make it happen, however we can. 

Due to timing of everything (my cycle mainly and my 38th birthday next month) we decided to try ONE MORE TIME with an IUI (artificial insemination).

We ALSO contracted and paid for our IVF treatment to begin in November.

This means, if the IUI (our 8th and final IUI attempt) fails, we have IVF as a back-up.

On the contrary, if it WORKS (wouldn’t that be fantastic!) we get to instead use our money to put towards either IVF in the future, or ADOPTION.

We are completely grateful for these opportunities. My heart has been full and at peace this week.

The ironic part of this IUI cycle is we nearly had to move directly to IVF due to my follicle count. If that doesn’t make sense, with Newton’s Law in mind, we COULD end up with 4 babies. Not ideal of course. But going off of my past statistics we aren’t too concerned.

Ideally, we are pregnant with 1 baby and another baby comes to us through adoption.

That would be my perfect world.

Of course God knows what is best for our little family and I’ve put my COMPLETE trust and faith in Him.


Life is Good J
