Graduation Day!

golfrgalgolfrgal member
in Pregnant after IF

I was just released from my RE with a hug and told to bring LO back once he's born so she can play with him.  Aww!  

I can't believe I'm done there after all these months...and that I'm done with PIO injections (switching to Endometrin at this point, yay!).   

I think I can make out a head and tiny arms on the ultrasound pictures!  I can't get over the idea that someone is inside my belly.

    It is a very emotional time. Congrats. I remember when I did it with my first baby. I did bring her back. It was amazing moment, knowing these people help make her. 

    Best of luck.
