It still feels soooo early in this pregnancy but things are progressing quite nicely! I had my second blood test on Wednesday and the results that came back were very good...almost too good. There could be more then one lingering in my belly! We will know for sure March 29th when I have my first ultrasound and i am 7 weeks along! Wow!
On Thursday after I found out my positive second blood results, I called the IVF center and told them my good news that I was cancelling my cycle scheduled for May. They will be giving us back our deposit....woohoooo! It was really sweet because the financial counselor woman that I have been dealing with this whole time, told me "Congratulations! I am so happy for you" when we were saying goodbye. I choked up tears and said Thank you and then had a really hard time holding back tears. Such a relief that we are not having to go through IVF!!
My only symptoms right now are more hungry then usual and cramps. Sometimes my cramps get so intense that I can't sleep. I got up about 5 times last night every two hours or so because of the intenseness of my cramping. It comes for about 20 minutes and then leaves for 2 hours. It's this really strange feeling when the cramps finally subside....it's almost euphoric and I feel like I am drugged up when the cramps stop.....my body just feels relief. It's kind of weird to explain. I know these cramps are something I will have to deal with for the next 9 months and I am okay with that. Hoping between the cramps, my late night cereal breaks and excitment that I can finally get some good sleep. I feel like I haven't slept well all week!
It's exciting that I am able to tell some of my closest friends...the love is just so overwhelming and it's funny how most everyone reacts with a relief for us. A relief that this battle is hopefully over for us and a relief that we won't have to spend all that money to have the family we dream of having.
Once we get through selling our condo and moving and dealing with this crazy neighbor's lawsuit, we can finally focus on everything baby over the summer. I am looking forward to finally telling our whole families Easter!!
