The right direction. ;)

So FINALLY we have an update on how cycle two is progressing. 🙂
YAY!

I had my baseline ultrasound today.
My lining is supposed to be at least 7.5 in thickness.
It’s at 13.3.
Which is AWESOME.
Also my lining has already formed a trilaminar pattern which happens to be “optimal for implantation.”
: )

My estrogen levels are at 330 which is ideal as well.
Meaning everything remains on track.
Tomorrow is the last day of my Lupron.
HOLLER.
I won’t miss the needles. -_-
Thursday I start with the vaginal progestrone capsules which are pretty yucky but whatever.
I’m excited to start them because it means we are that much closer to the transfer!

The transfer is set for August 13th at 12:00. 🙂
Today was the second appointment my wife hasn’t been able to attend because of work.
I’m a happy cookie that she will be there for the rest of our appointments!
ESPECIALLY the transfer cuz that speculum is no bueno!!

I feel a little bit of excitement again.
Knowing that in one week our liddo embryos will be inside.
Two weeks & two days until we know if it’s for sure. 🙂
Don’t mind me, I am totally on the countdown to our BETA.

The clinic wants to know how many we are going to transfer.
So they know how many to thaw.
& the poopie part about that is we don’t even know how many yet.
-_-
two or three?!
Mind you two are 5AA quality.
But regardless, we still can’t decide.
: /

Domonique & I were both accepted into the career advancement program at school however i haven’t decide for sure if I am going to attend.
She begins graveyards on 19th.
& school starts the 19th as well.
Alsooo, I received an email from San Francisco department of health about a job I had applied for awhile ago wanting me to complete the second step of the application.
If I were to be hired would I even want to work right now??
Ugh.

So many decisions, so little time.
BLAH!

First comes love.Then comes marriage. Then comes…

Domonique & I have been together for two years.
We registered for Domestic Partnership July 10,2012 & I became her Mrs.Robinson.
She’s 23 & I’m 21. We live in BEAUTIFUL California & wouldn’t have it any other way.

We’ve known since we got together that we wanted to start a family. We just didn’t know we would be able to make it happen so soon. Being that my wife would never want to carry a child & that’s an opportunity I REFUSE to miss out on it was simple for us to decide how we would go about this thaaang.

We chose to use reciprocal IVF which means that we will use her eggs, a sperm donor & I will be the carrier. Unfortunately we have had to pay for this entire process out of pocket because it’s not covered under neither of our insurance policies however,we had no intention on letting that slow us down. After researching clinics & saving the funds here we are. Two months into the process & one week away from the egg retrieval and insemination. Eek eek!

We’ve had quite a few appointments & so far everything is going lovelyyy. Our levels are where they should be,my lining is extraaa thickie and my wife’s ovaries are working overtime to make as many liddo eggieeees as possible!

I am currently taking Lupron injections & using Vivelle dot patches while Domonique is taking Lupron injections as well as Follistim injections.

We are hoping to have twins, a boy & a girl but regardless of gender we will be this happiest cookies on the planet if everything goes as planned!
