Road to IVF, 1st cycle

I'm pending to start my first IVF session. I'm nervous and excited all at the same time. It's about $7,100.00 for IVF but about 20% from me.

We have a full nursery ready for a baby. My husband and I want a baby! Infertility has been such a huge issue with me and with my mom.. She was not successful with IVF, I was the only one she was able to conceive. I'm her lil miracle..

I'm hoping to have my one miracle or two?

I've chosen to have IVF with ICSI for a higher success rate. I also had a hysteroscopy and D&C. So I'm praying for a sticky baby or babies. I do want two good embryos.

I'm freezing my other embryos in case this isn't successful my beautiful sister in law said she would be our surrogate if come needed.

I've only been pregnant once before and it only lasted 5wks, I only got to see the yolk sac. But it was the best 5 weeks of my life! It was literally 2 weeks after we got married we conceived naturally.

It's been almost 3 years of painful testing, scrapings, horrible medications..
I let go of a previous infertility doctor, he was so admit for me to have a hysterectomy and have a surrogate.

My new doctor, Dr. Lowell Ku, has been awesome and has given me a whole new hope that I can still conceive, but we are moving fast because of my hyperplasia, in fear that it will come back.
Because it does pretty quickly.

One neat fact about Dr. Ku, we both are born on Halloween!!
How cool is that!

I gotta give him props, he's gentle, calm, and his beside manner is wonderful and understanding.
He always draws out the game plan, I've kept all of the ones they've given me, saving it for my scrap book.

This past Wednesday we completed the mandatory embryology class, medication class, and my mock transfer. Only thing we are waiting is for Aunt Flo to arrive and get this show on the road!!
