Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Class Today

March 22, 2007 — 9:08 am

This afternoon is our IVF protocol class with the IVF nurses… where they teach us how to do injections and hopefully figure out dates and exactly when our cycle will be happening. I’m really excited to know when we’re starting.

Next week I have my post-op appointment with my doctor. I need to start thinking about what I want/need to ask her about the endo. We’ll also sign those IVF consent forms at that time.

Seeing a lot of failed IVF cycles lately. It’s really bringing home with me how chancy all this is… sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. It’s not a miracle cure. I’m just so scared. What if it doesn’t work? What the hell do we do then? We don’t know if we an afford even a FET until next year. Next year! I just can’t dwell on it. Den just told me by email to just take it as it comes, if it doesn’t work we’ll find some way to do another try… but for now to just worry about this cycle. And he’s right. I know he’s right. I’m just so tired this morning it’s hard to stay positive. :(
