The start of a journey...

Well, since my world pretty much revolves around my surrogacy at the moment, I have decided to start keeping a blog about this little adventure. So tomorrow is my very first day of injections (a shot in the butt every 3 days for the next 3 weeks-YAY!). And I am excited a little, but mostly just nervous as hell. I was on a conference call earlier in the week with several of the surrogates with my agency and a few of them are on their 2nd or 3rd IVF and I have to be honest, while I know that sometimes it takes multiple tries, it hasn't really occured to me that my first try next month might not take. And that has me a little worried, because ultimately, I don't want to disappoint these amazing men. So any good thoughts you can send my way around the 20th would be greatly appreciated. We all know I have never had a problem getting pregnant, so this should be a cake walk- but still, I could use all the help I can get. Will check back in when I have anything new to report.

Surrogacy

So as you all may or may not be aware. I am going to be a surrogate. The intended parents are these amazing men who live in Europe. I am super excited about everything, and for those who know me well its been a long and involved process. So the ball has started rolling and suddenly i feel like a snowball on a downhill slope. Its going faster and faster and while I am super excited, i am also really nervous about it. Please be patient with me if I snap at you, understand my hormones are out of control and that i am more than a little scared. The risks are big, but I think the reward is greater. Will hop on this thing again sometime soon. xoxo, kate
