Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

I know the very nicest people

Look what my work sent me! We just had it delivered to our house. :D That’s just the sweetest thing!

My work sent me these as a "get well" after my surgery!

And the ducky base part is actually a piggy bank too… so we decided to start putting coins in it as part of our baby’s fund.

Den putting the first coin in our future kiddo's piggy bank

I’m feeling okay today… my shoulders still start aching right away when I get up though. I have to stay laying down in bed to help that gas dissipate. My stomach is still pretty bloated (though not as much as it was yesterday), which is putting a little bit of strain on my incisions. I don’t really notice them except when I try levering myself up or if something bumps against my stomach. I juts have to be a bit ginger, is all.

I still get tired pretty easily but I’m also feeling pretty awake half the time.

I know people are a little confused as to why I did the surgery when we’re still doing IVF anyways. But honestly it as a precaution I wanted to take, plus I just wanted to know. I hate wondering and being kept in the dark. Now that I know I have endometriosis I’ll know in the future what’s going on with my crazy periods. Plus I wanted to make sure there was nothing inside me that could possibly hinder our IVF success.

We are really ready for a baby.

    How sweet! I bet it is sooooooooo yummy! I am so ecstatic that you finally have some answers. You are no longer suffering from “unexplained infertility”. That has got to give you some relief at last.

    I have a GREAT feeling about May and the IVF. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for you. I wish you a super speedy recovery and am praying for you with all my might.
