Waiting and Waiting and Waiting…
I guess it is time to give an update. We are currently still in the waiting game. Once we pay the $1000 deposit, we get a start date. Until then, it’s just waiting…with no end in sight. Hope, but with no idea when your “work” towards your dream will begin. Work, meaning the start ofContinue reading “Waiting and Waiting and Waiting…”

Wednesday (June 4th), Hazel had PT through SoonerStart. As soon as the therapist left, I checked myContinue reading “When it Rains…”
FET #4 = Fail
We are now almost 3 weeks past finding out FET #4 failed. It has been a wild ride. The whole time between transfer (May 2nd) and test day (May 12) I tried to stay as calm and not stressed as possible. So post-test day, I had A TON of work I needed to get doneContinue reading “FET #4 = Fail”

We have come here so many times beforeContinue reading “Wake, Pray, It’s Transfer Day!”
Baseline 4/8/25
As promised, I am trying to be better about blogging throughout our journey. People keep asking me if I’m excited. Yes? And no? I’m excited for a 3rd baby. I’m not excited that the only way we have a chance is through IVF…again. I’m excited we have one more embryo. I’m still grieving the 2Continue reading “Baseline 4/8/25”

11 Weeks 4 Days
I don’t have much to update, but since I’m not crazy busy at work, I thought it would be a good idea! I am officially 11 weeks 4 days pregnant. I’ll be 12 weeks on Sunday. FINALLY. Different places you look show different answers for when the 2nd trimester starts. It’s wild. So I amContinue reading “11 Weeks 4 Days”
