Sorry I have not posted for awhile, the memorial day weekend was very relaxing and computer free! Coy and I are celebrating our 2 year anniversary today, so we are excited about that.

I started Lupron injections on Saturday, so today was day 4 of doing those, and all has gone well. It stings like crazy, but for the most part is not that painful. I will do these injections up until my suppression check on 6/3. Hopefully at that point, everything will be "quiet" and we can start the stimulation injections.

We go tomorrow to talk to the genetic counselor about the pre genetic testing, where they can pull a cell from the embryo and tell if there is any chromosomal abnormalitites, before they place it back in, of course if there are abnormalitites they will not put it back in. So we will talk with the geneticist at 2pm tomorrow to decide if we want to do that. It is very expensive, but worth it to know you are only putting back the embryo's that would make it and not have any abnormalitites. They test specifically for trisomy 21, and a bunch of other chromosomal abnormalities.

I will post more after the meeting tomorrow.

As always, thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers during this stressful/emotional time!!
