back to the beginning

back to square one.

talked with Pacific IVF. they've agreed that we should stop OCPs (birth control pills) for now as we don't know how long it will take to create our genetics panel.

rye and i will be going in on wednesday for an update with the nurse as well as for a blood test for them to send to Reprogenetics. and cec has swabbed her cheek for us (they mailed her a lab kit!) and overnighted it (for $6o) to New Jersey. (hmm...wonder what they're doing with that bit of her cheek right now?) ;)

meanwhile even with the possible 3+ month wait, we're maintaining no caffeine or alcohol. which has actually been more difficult then i thought, and i'm not even a REAL coffee drinker! i gave myself a little reprieve and am now drinking about 2 cups of decaf a week. :) Hurray.

on a little more interesting note: will be beginning acupuncture specifically oriented towards fertility and ivf this week. should be interesting!

Well timed perhaps to employ yo Granny's recent advice??? And hey, don't gloss over that no alcohol, that's rough.
