Lupron

I started my Lupron injections on Tuesday night. So far I have done three. They are going really well. I was nervous to start, but it's not a big deal. I haven't had any headaches (yet.) I hear they are pretty common when you take Lupron.

I continue my bcp until Saturday and then I stop that. I think I go in next Friday for bloodwork and an ultrasound. I have to double check my schedule.

I've been doing acupuncture 2x a week. I love it! It helps me feel relaxed and I feel like I'm doing something positive for myself.

I also bought a relaxation cd - I figure if I get anxious about the shots I can use it to calm myself.

Hi Wendy

I was looking back through our blog and noted your comment. I then noticed you had a link. I thought I would check it out. I appreciate your openness to such a difficult conversation.

I just wanted you to know that my thoughts truly are that you will be a mother one day. There are lots of ways to build a family.
In whatever way it happens, it will be great!

Keep your head up and "be in the moment" of your journey. When you do have your baby, this experience will make all those future moments more sweeter and cherished.

I will continue to think of you.
