I'm pregnant!

After almost 4 years of trying, we're pregnant! I've taken over 400 pills, over 100 shots, had my blood drawn over 20 times. It has all been worth it now, because we're pregnant. We're still a little nervous though, because it's still very early in the pregnancy, but we are so excited that we had to tell.

We find out if one or both of the embryos that were implated took. We could be having one or more! We would love twins (two for the price of one), but we're grateful for whatever we get. I'm feeling good. I still have to take a lot of medicine, so my hormone levels stay where they should. I still feel like a lab rat, but it's getting better. My butt has gotten used to the daily injections, and I don't feel as sore as I used to.

Kylee is excited to have a baby brother or baby sister (and a puppy). We told Kylee that we're not getting her a dog until after we have a baby, so now she is really excited about getting a puppy.

An update on our family planning

As many of you know, we are doing in vitro. I had my eggs implanted on Monday, and now I'm on bedrest, waiting for them to take. We'll find out in 10 days if it worked. We do have one egg frozen in Las Vegas, but we're really hoping this time it will work. It's so expensive. I'm grateful for modern technology though. I'll keep updating my blog--stay tuned!
