Cycle Week 4

This past week was reassuring that everything is working and well on its way. I continue to feel great and no crazy side effects so it has been hard to believe that anything is really changing! BUT- My uterus lining is very thick and my levels are just where they wanted to see them. YIPPIE!!!

I have to say that I am very bloated and feel like I look pregnant already… debating if the maternity clothes bin is coming down yet or not… Ok maybe not YET but I am pretty sure that it will be sooner then later if these two little embries stick!

10 DAYS!!!

until TRANSFER DAY!!!

Here is my daily medication this week

Noon: Prenatal Vitamin

Eve: Delestrogen Injection(Monday & Friday's) , Lupron Injection & Advil

I will stop Lupron on Friday and add the Progestrone which is administered just like the Delestrogen in the lower back, upper buttock area. Luckily my husband has been a pro so not too worried yet! The thermaphore and massage are my speciality so CHEERS!!

This last week I caught up with the wonderful Stacie from the blog I posted about in an earlier post! If you haven't already - read her blog! Her heart is made of Gold. Stacie delivered twin babies for an Israeli couple and now on her second surrogacy journey for another Israeli couple! With only 4 days behind me I am so excited to join journeys together and have her as a mentor! Hope we can travel to Israel together someday and see the families we have blessed! 

Stacie and I met up at the gym this last week where she kicked my shoulders and arms into gear! Its crazy how you get into a rut at the gym and just by doing new exercises totally changes things! She is tough and loved working out together! Looking forward to our twin bellies growing and the look of panic on people at the gym when we are lifting weights! #buffsurrogates #fitpregnancy

NWSC sent me an email a few weeks ago asking if they could use some of my photos for their booth at the Kids Fest and future booths in Oregon & California! They blew up my photo and a quote from my profile. I didnt think much of it until friends were sending me messages that they saw it!! I am now famous!! Here was the draft they sent for my approval!

Thank you to those who continue to share your appreciation and support! It has blown my mind and I am so grateful to call you friends!

love,
