Purpose of This Blog

I felt compelled a couple of weeks ago to share my story. After listening to a sermon, the phrase don't waste your tears came to mind. The sermon was based on the scripture, Those who sow in tears will reap with joy, He who goes weeping, carrying seed to sow will return with songs of joy. Psalm 126:5 My desire and hope for this blog is to not only help me through this season, but to encourage others with what God is doing in my life. I pray that this blog helps me and you see God's grace, love, and presence through every step of this journey. My dear friend explained to me the other day that her season of infertility was the sweetest thing she had every endured. She encouraged me to not waste my infertility. This is me not wasting it.

Eggs Retrieved

Today was overall a success! It definitely wasn't as painful as I intended. The doctor retrieved 11 eggs. He told us that he was hoping for a little more, but he was still very positive. The nurses and my doctor were really wonderful during the procedure. They made sure to make me feel comfortable the entire time. As of right now, I am still a little woozy and my stomach is very sore and bloated. Tomorrow, the nurse will call me around 12:00 to let me know how many eggs fertilized and how many embryos there are.

Please pray:
1. The eggs retrieved would be mature and would fertilize.
2. Strong embryos would form and we would make it to transfer!
3. That I would not get OHSS, and if I do it would be mild.
