It's finally time for my first, and hopefully last, IVF cycle! If all goes according to plan, a cycle should take about 6 weeks. For the next few weeks I will be taking birth control pills. This is to suppress my system so that they can time everything just perfectly. Wow, birth control pills....didn't I get off of those things for a reason? I haven't taken one in over 4 years, so I'm a little anxious as to how they will affect me. From the looks of all of the injectable medication side effects, the pills should be the least of my worries. So, we'll see!
In a few weeks I will start incorporating different injections, but for now I will just concentrate on this part. One day at a time, right? I will keep you all updated!

You are so crazy...but we love you anyway! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this...although I guess now I won't be the one to give you your injections, huh?! Haha. Anyway, Bear & I are praying for you and Andy! Let us know if you need anything at all. We love you.

Your mom led me to your blog. She has been reading my blog from it's start and has been so supportive of us. She is a sweetheart. I will be praying for you as well as you start this cycle.
You have a great sense of humor and a way of making all of this medical stuff very easy to understand. :)
Thanks Mom and Amanda! We really appreciate your support and love ya'll!
Mandy...thank you for your prayers and sweet words! What is the link to your blog? I'm always looking for new blogs to read!
Um, Mandy...nevermind. I guess clicking on your name will get me to your blog:) Still trying to figure this thing out!
This is not only a great vehicle for keeping us informed, but for also getting things off your chest when necessary. Y'all have been in our prayers for a long time now and you know how much I know what you're going through. So much of it feels like it was us just yesterday! Uncle Dave is watching over you, too! I know that you'll have you baby someday because God's timing is always perfect!
Love, Aunt Mollie and Elizabeth
Jessica, I had no idea - your Mom just sent me your blog and I'm almost in tears reading it. You two have had such a hard time, bless your hearts! I will begin to pray for you and Andy today! Sending tons of prayers, love and hugs your way!
Jessica, thanks for letting me be a part of your very personal issues that you have faced. Please know that I will pray for you each day. Remember, God will bless you. Just kept the faith! You're a great friend!
With God's love and prayers, Ronda J. Cheek
Aunt Mollie and Elizabeth~ Thank you so much! It does seem like just yesterday. I really miss Uncle Dave, and I know he is watching over all of us!
Kerri~ Thank you so much too! I have been keeping up with your blog and praying for you as well, and I'm so happy that you beat it!!! Your positive attitude is an encouragement to me everyday. I would have left comments, but I'm just now figuring out how to do this whole blog thing:)
Ronda~ Thank you honey...you are an awesome friend to! I'm so blessed to be able to work with you...thanks again.
Were you able to find my blog? It should be listed on that profile page when you click my name. :)
Hey Mandy! Yes, I finally figured out how to get to your page! I love it so far...I'm trying to play catch-up...you've been doing this alot longer than me! I also tried to subscribe, so I hope I did it right:)
Hi Jessica, this is Paula, your mom's cousin in Tallahassee. I wish you and Andy all the happiness in the world. I admire your bravery just "putting in all out there." Best of luck on your journey!
Hey Paula! Thanks so much...it really means alot! Hope you and the rest of the family are doing well. Will you be here in September for the reunion?
Paula...I meant birthday party...but it's a reunion too!
Yes,I'll be there. We won't know until closer to the time whether Larry and Kelly will be coming, too. I'm excited to have an excuse to get everyone together! We are such a big and spread out family that it usually takes a wedding or a funeral to get us all in one place. Not planning on either one for awhile, so a birthday party it is!
