Well the day has arrived IVF orientation. I drove the 3.5+ hours to the naval medical center in Bethesda this morning and am now nervously waiting. I tries to make myself eat but my stomach can't handle the food and my nerves. We pay our deposit today but I forgot our credit card that we are using to pay for it so I will have to figure out how to pay that. DH couldnt come with me so I need all the good vibes I can get!
