One year ago today, we sat in a little room waiting for the doctor. The nurse came in and we confirmed that the vial they were giving us was indeed our donor. Everything we wanted and hoped for laid in that vial. It was the last vial from the donor we had: the last chance of a brother or sister for Pixel: our last shot at trying for at least a year while we saved up money.
Everything looked good going into that room. The medications had worked like they were suppose to, I had three beautiful follicles and an amazing lining. The exact same scenario that we got pregnant with Pixel and Bit 10 months ago.
We were excited. The doctor came in, did the procedure and wished us luck as he walked out of the room. We sat for another 10 minutes and then I got up off the bed and got dressed. The nurses wished us luck as we left and gave me a form for a blood test in two weeks. I knew it would be a long two weeks waiting to see if it worked.
It ended up being a very long 9 months, but Edward is finally here and we are so happy. We are thankful for the science that allows us to get pregnant and the doctors and nurses who were there every step of the way and helped relieve any anxiety they could.
