I just want to thank my husband, friends, and family for all of the support and input. It has really been a struggle to decide which option to go with. In my heart I knew that option 1 was not the right choice for us. But option 2 and 3 had their own pros and cons. After talking about it all weekend with my husband and listening to what everyone had to say....we have decided to go with option 2. I have put myself through so much already that if it does not work after 4 tries then adoption is the right road for us.
A few people asked a few questions. So here are the answers
The first question was if we get pregnant the first try what will they do with the rest of the eggs? If we have any eggs left we will freeze them for future use. My fingers are crossed that will will have eggs left because then I will not have to go through the egg retrieval again and the cost goes down the second time.
The second question was How many eggs are we willing to transfer? Well because of my age the most the doctor will transfer is two. Even though there is a chance that we could end up with up to four if those eggs happened to split....just for better chances we are going to transfer 2 eggs.
The third question is what doctor are we using? We are going to ACRM- The Atlanta Center for Reproductive Medicine. I normally see Dr. Denis but I have seen others too.
So as of right now I am continuing to take my birth control pills daily and getting ready for our next appointment which is Friday. During that appointment they will do a trial transfer to map out what it is like in there so on the day of egg retrieval there are no surprises and we also have to go through the shot teach so that Stephen can learn to give me shots.
I guess that is all for now. Thanks again for all your love, prayers, and support!
