Dusting and a Cleaning...

So just thought that I would give a little update to all my peeps out there... Since my last blog there are no changes. Literally in my situation. My little " Aunt Flo" never came. She is so stubborn! She only wants to make her presence known when she wants to. So the progesterone injections didn't work as Dr. Deaton had wanted to... so here is where we stand.

Since I did not have my period, before starting another round of IVF shots I have to some how shed this lining. Since it didn't happen with the shots I am having to have a DNC done... hence the name Dusting and a Cleaning... I know it sounds crazy but in reality I think this is what I needed to have done all along to get this a fresh healthy lining. I know what you are thinking " Why didn't her doctor just do one prior to the first round of shots" and to be honest I have wondered that myself so I asked. Dr Deaton was hoping that since my lining was thick to begin with that with the IVF shot it would form into a three line healthy lining. Well of course you know my body never does as its suppose to so... that's where we are now.

Dr Deaton is saying this is a fresh start. That my lining will start out thin like it suppose to then once I start taking the IVF shots again it will form a healthy lining and prepare for we pray implantation!

Dr Deaton will be out of the county/state something like that the week that I need to have this done so my OBGYN Dr AJ Lewis from winston will be performing the surgery at Forsyth Medical Center on Feb 28th! Its pretty simple he explained. I go in Friday 2/25 for pre opt appointment with the doctors and the staff to get blood work. Then I go in at 6:15 am Monday morning. Procedure last about 1.5 hours including putting me to sleep then I will be in recovery for an hour or so then on my way home to rest! Should be up and ready to go back to work on Tuesday! Dr Deaton can call the hospital and get the pathology report that afternoon and let me know Tuesday that we are good to go with the shots for March 4! Quick I know! However I am excited to start another round... not necessarily the 1.5 inch injections in my rump but to see how this round will be.

I know some of you are thinking "What if" about the pathology report and trust me we(Neal and I) have thought that too. Here is the bottom line and I will not speak anymore about what if. If there is ANYTHING on that report that is cancerous or will in any way effect me or an embryo I will not proceed with IVF I have told all the doctors that. I said "Cut that crap out, all of it" I know that God has big plans for Neal and I as I have said that over and over ... I also know that whatever happens is Gods will and so for that that is all I am saying about that. I will not rely on the what if just on God! PERIOD.

So... that's basically it. I hope that has caught everyone up to where we are at right now. I will probably update you guys after my surgery let you know what the next steps are!

Please keep us in your prayers as this is still a waiting period and as much as I want to be a mother its in HIS timing not ours.

We love you all!

Reasons...

I am not sure I included this in the last blog but when Dr Deaton stopped the IVF shots I had follicles grow. Just not big enough. So when he stopped them we have to do something with them and that means a having a period. Since most know that I do not start one on my own I had to have 4 progesterone shots to start. That was two weeks ago. I had to have 2 shots on Thursday and 2 shots that Friday. Dr Deaton said that some women start that day of the shots and some it takes longer. Of course we all know that my body NEVER does what most women's bodies do . I still have not started. Dr Deaton wants to wait til Monday 2/7/2011 to decide what to do if I don't start. However this is where the pain comes in. Sunday night was rough I was having the worse cramps ever I explained them like bricks laying on my uterus. Very painful finally I had to take pain meds to even sleep. Then Monday night was worse and well last night Tuesday was over the top! I was up every 15 t0 20 min not knowing what to do. I woke up made my lunch then thought ok I feel better I laid down. Then I was up in the next 30 min and just didn't understand I had taken 2 Tylenol and nothing was working so I thought I would take a shower and that would make me feel better. Well nope I was wrong. I finally fell asleep at 500 this morning and then my alarm went off at 6 and all I was thinking is how can I function today sitting at a desk with maybe 3 hours of good sleep. So needless to say I stayed home. I needed today to rest. I feel asleep at 8 and woke up at 100 ish and felt wonderful! I am still in pain but just praying it is not near as bad as last night.

What happends if I dont start... well I know but am praying that we dont even have to worry ab out that!

So there you have it. I am not focusing on this pain or letting it stop me from the promises that God has given me. I do realize I need rest and need to relax. I am trying.

Thanks for all your prayers and support. Neal and I are so blessed beyond words! Thank you for always thinking about us and praying for us and with us!

Love you all!!
