I have been in a bit of pain since Monday and last night I was starting to get concerned. I can feel every bump and movement and peeing is painful and today the re started me on antibiotics as she thinks I have an infection from the nick. So we have two embies on board and now we just have to hope they stick! Now this sou.

Our Egg, Her Nest? My journey to Motherhood through gestational surrogacy. What did I just write about again? On Naming a Human. Viability and Our First Consultant Appointment. Happy for Them, Sad for Me.

Hope in the adventures of infertility. Looking back, throwing away the birth control pills was my broadcast to the world of my new profession. I had zero experience and no training, but there I was at the beginning of the journey and I was convinced I was going to hop on that line and breeze across the rope on my first or second attempt. But, low and behold, no such luck. Body What? August 6, 2015.

Not My Bun in the Oven.

My Journey as a Traditional Surrogate. Well sad news first thing this morning. My clinic has decided that they are not comfortable doing the IUI for traditional surrogacy. They are more than happy to do all of my prenatal care though once I conceive. I really do understand their POV though. Even with the lawyers and contract they want to protect themselves and that is totally their choice.

The Queen of Wishful Thinking.

I had my 10 week scan prior to my Har.

This girl needs to take a pause. In their email, they gave me their blessing to move on. We discussed possibilities when we were in Toronto together, and I know they had no plan to go through another retrieval. We were all hopeful for a few embryos to come out of the last retrieval, but out of the 25 retrieved eggs, there was just the one viable embryo. It reminds me of telegrams.

I hesitated whether or not to do these bump updates but ultimately decided to because I want to document as much as possible with this pregnancy.
