FET Update: 8dp5dt
Wednesday, November 28, 2018
Hello everyone. I just wanted to provide a quick update of how things are going on 8dp5dt. Today was interesting. While attending an all day meeting, I went to the bathroom on break and noticed that I was spotting. It looked as if I was about to start my cycle. Of course, I panicked as it didn't look like typical implantation bleeding. I contacted my fertility clinic and nurse, but had to return to my meeting and couldn't answer the follow-up calls. When I went back in the bathroom 20 minutes later, nothing.
I am hopeful that it was implantation bleeding and that everything is now well and a sign that the baby (or babies) has settled nicely. There are another 5 days before I know for sure. I've been super tempted to test, but I certainly won't yet.
That being said....keep praying for a sister.

Thanksgiving Recap
Sunday, November 25, 2018
Hello everyone! I am hoping you had an amazing Thanksgiving and that it was so very blessed in the Lord. This was the first year in about four that S. and I did not host Thanksgiving. Our sister in love did a fantastic job and we were so glad to be able to make a few dishes, come to her and my brother in love’s home, and just enjoy the day.

Hi everyone! I'm closing shop for a couple of days to enjoy our friends and family, and to thank God for all He has done and all that He is. I'll make sure to check in after the holiday with FET updates and holiday recaps.
FET CD19: Transfer Day
Tuesday, November 20, 2018
What a day. I am currently resting on the couch with two beautiful embryos resting well within me. Today was our Frozen Embryo Transfer and it was a wonderful success. This was our first frozen transfer, but it was vaguely reminiscent of our last IVF w/ICSI transfer.

FET: CD18 Transfer Eve
Monday, November 19, 2018
It's the night before my transfer and I'm sitting here with my husband watching him watch football. My right butt check is still protesting the injection I gave myself earlier. I am almost certain there would be a bruise if I actually looked carefully enough.
I'm tired. I'm ready to close my eyes and have a good night sleep before tomorrow's transfer. I've done this before. I know how this is supposed to go. But man...I wish I didn't feel so nervous.
Tomorrow, if God is willing, I will have little passenger(s) resting within my womb at the end of the night. I hope and pray with all of me that this procedure works.
Keep me in your prayers all.

Friday Frazzle: My Week In Review
Friday, November 9, 2018
Hello everyone! I hope it’s been a fantastic week for you! It’s been a mixed bag for me. Some days have been wonderful. Others, like after the news of another mass shooting, not so much. I’ve been enjoying the link up with Narci, Erika, and Andrea so I decided to continue it. Here is my week in review and a few favorites too!
Why I took my 12 y/o son to the polls
Tuesday, November 6, 2018
I called the sitter on the way to the house. Bug had the day off from school. The sitter was still with Honeybee and baby A. He was enjoying the day doing what preteens do on a rainy and dreary day. He was sleeping. I told the sitter that I would be picking him up in about ten minutes and for him to be ready.

Weekend Recap: 2018 NC A&T Homecoming (Photo Heavy)-Part I
Hello everyone! I hope you had a fantastic weekend! I definitely did as my husband, his coworker, his coworker’s wife (both of whom are without a doubt awesome), and I drove down to Greensboro, North Carolina to attend North Carolina A&T State University’s Homecoming. Known among Aggie alumni as #GHOE for Greatest Homecoming on Earth, we drove down on Friday and made our way back yesterday. Guys, it was a great trip.

Skate Night with the Family
Thursday, November 1, 2018
Hi everyone! Last night was a pretty cool night for us. I promise I'd already decided we weren't doing anything. We don't celebrate Halloween and I wasn't too keen on going out, but Honeybee asked if she could be a "pretty purple princess" and S. mentioned at least showing face at the church's skate event and I acquiesced. I'm so glad I did.
A Month of Gratitude
Hello everyone! Happy November 1st. This month is truly special. There are a lot of wonderful things we are hoping and expecting to happen. It's National Adoption Month. It's "I'm Grateful" month. It's the month we walk toward expanding our family via FET. Wow...We have a lot going on. So let's talk about it!
