Babies on Board
March 14, 2009 in Grrr, Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)Let me introduce you to the little Schulmans. I’m calling them Hope and Faith right now because that’s what’s getting us through this process — hope that they will want to stick around and faith in God to know that this *will* happen if...
It’s Go Time
in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)It’s time to go. It’s time to go get my babies inside me. I am so freaking excited and yet I’m so nervous at the same time. I stayed up way too late last night because I just couldn’t sleep. As a friend said,...
The Mothering Gene
March 13, 2009 in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)I already love my little embies. I know that might sound weird, but really, they’re conceived and growing just as they would be if I had gotten pregnant naturally. Everytime I think about them I get this overwhelming sense of love, and I want...
One More Day
in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)At this time tomorrow I will have my two embies inside me. I am so excited I can hardly stand it! We got an update of sorts today. Joe called our IVF coordinator who said she doesn’t check on numbers on day 2, since...
Kicking Butts and Taking Names
March 12, 2009 in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)I have 14 little embies sitting in the Emory lab! Out of the 21 retrieved yesterday, 17 were mature and 14 fertilized. That’s an 82 percent fertilization rate, surpassing the typical 75 percent fertilization rate. Our babies are already smarter than the norm! We’re...

March 11, 2009 in Family, LifeJoe’s grandmother cracks me up. As Joe said, we can’t wait to get to the age where we can say whatever we want. On our retrieval … Joe: We had 21 eggs retrieved today! Nana: Did you have enough sperm to fertilized them? Joe:...
The Retrieval
in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)The retrieval today was very successful! I was just relieved to get all those eggs out of my ovaries. We had to be there around 8 a.m., but since we live about 40 minutes north of Atlanta, we typically have to leave around 6...
Uncomfortable
March 10, 2009 in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)Uncomfortable isn’t even the term to describe how I feel right now. It’s pretty darn painful to sit here at work and even to walk, hence the waddling. I literally want to do the retrieval myself! Luckily, my meeting tonight was cancelled, so I...
Triggered
in Life, Trying to Conceive (TTC)Tomorrow at this time I will be a free woman — free from all these eggs, that is! I am so full of them that I am waddling, and I’m wondering how in the world I will fit in my pants for work today....
