One more time

Okay, we had decided to take a break from TTC over the holidays so we could regroup and rebuild our savings after having spent a ton of money on our fertility efforts this year. However, when I got a surprise visit from AF just before we went out of town and we happened to have a little extra money, we decided to go for our first combination cycle. Although I certainly hope it works, I have not gotten my hopes up this time. It would be really nice to have a BFP at Christmas, but I realize that it is very likely more of a practice run.

Thanksgiving was a bit more difficult than I anticipated. It was the first time I had seen my sister since she got pregnant and she is currently 21 weeks along and hating it most of the time. She says she is't ungrateful, but just uncomfortable. I don't care how uncomfortable I am, I'll love every minute of being pregnant because it has been such a journey and I have been working so hard for so long to experience it for myself.

Friday, we'll find out our fate and the success or failure of this round of medication. In the meantime, I'll be sending Christmas cards to ladies in my support group who are going through the same struggles I have been going through.
