Well I am happy to report the contract and escrow phase is complete!!!! Yeppie!!! Man I really hate that part... I tell you it's definitely a test! I must say it went pretty quick! Today was our mock cycle, saline sono, and uterine biopsy... I'm in some pain and have some bleeding which is normal. We have to wait a week for all test results to come back! Cross your fingers and toes ladies!
On a not so good note out RE suggested waiting till August to allow me some more time to lose between 10-15 pounds. He feels this would be better for the transfer and pregnancy! I honestly support whatever gives us the best chance! No matter if we go ahead for Jy or wait for August my plan is to lose about 25! Wish me lots of luck! I do hope we go ahead with July, but as I said I support whatever they decide!
I'm so nervous about transfer!!!! Yikes! I've already started my GOOGLE craze... Looking up statistics on embryo age. Quality, frozen, fresh, etc..... Why oh why do I do this to myself! I know the whole spill about grading means nothing! Sometimes good embryos don't take and the bad ones do, but that's not helpful in the weeks before transfer!
Well that's all I've got for now! I hope to have some news Monday afternoon!

Well Lets start off on a good note..... I am currently matched to J&S a wonderful couple who are local! We met on May 6th, 2014 to see if we were a good match and for at least me to confirm how great the seemed over the phone... I swear to this day I can only describe matching as being set up on a blind date and the actual meeting like the first date, LOL! Lets state the obvious and say it went GREAT from the "I am matched!" I would say we sat talking for 3 hours.... They are so full of life, energy, and hope! I am truly looking forward to taking this journey with them.
OKAY, on the the not so good note... I have always been a big believer in the "oreo approach." As you know in October 2013 I was matched and transferred with B&R... This ended the way I thought it would! I am still kicking myself for not listening to my gut on our very first "date" I knew better. I have so many surrogates and IPs ask my advice on different things and my BEST advice no matter what the challenge/concern TRUST your GUT... What do I do? The exact opposite! You know it really hurt me to have to walk away from someone after giving my word, but being compared to the breeding of a horse just wasn't sitting well.
Now back to the GOOOOODDDD! Things have been moving a bit slow as I made a big move last month.... Oh man you have no idea how much stuff you have until you move and how much work it is changing everything in your life! I received the drafted contract from my attorney on May 28th, 2014 and holy 68 pages Batman!!!! I had the Zac Brown Band concert the next two days so lets just say I didn't get to go over it... After my family left I got back to business....
I buried myself in those 68 pages familiarizing myself with the new rules of this journey... I spoke to my attorney tonight and we went over the contract, changes he made, and my questions/concerns... I am hoping he gets them to their attorney ASAP and we get on to signing seeing as I STARTED BCP tonight!!!!! I truly feel like this journey is underway. I have pretesting blood work on Wednesday at 3:15, Saline sono, mock cycle, and uterine biopsy on the 12th at 12:30pm. How fast was that? From nothing to full force!
So that's where I have been and where I am!!! I am hoping in the upcoming weeks to post some more exciting news! We are hoping for a July cycle, but you know how surrogacy goes!
