let's get this going

With the beginning of 2013, the talk of starting fertility treatments is very much present in our minds.  Once we get me set up in the system here and get my medical records transferred I will hopefully get a referral to a new RE (reproductive endocrinologist) doctor. We are anxious to get this started again because trying on our own is obviously not working. We both know that the medications make me a hormonal nightmare so we are preparing for that aspect as well. The weight gain is also another side-effect that I will do my best to keep at a minimum so I can stay extremely healthy.

We know that Kyle will be deploying again and we want to get this process started as soon as possible. I am hoping that the hospital on post is helpful and can get me going in the right direction. I don't want to have to argue with people. 

I hear and see so many people who are not thankful for the beautiful gifts they have been given. Kyle and I would give anything to have that. We are also giving adoption a more serious look as well. The bottom line is that we know we will be parents, we just don't know when. All I know is that we will do everything in our power to make it happen in 2013!

:)

Thank you all for the wonderful support throughout this journey, you have no idea how much it means to us.

  24. My best friend in AK (who just moved to WA) has spent the last 3 years dealing with this. The army hospital eventually referred them and they had the necessary tests done...they were told "nothing" is wrong, but they don't want to do IV for religious reasons. So they are adopting. The paperwork has been in the works for months and now they are hoping by the end of 2013, they'll have a baby.
    I recommend doing the adoption process side-by-side with your medical treatments (if adoption is something you think you'll do anyway), because of the precious time it will save. This is such a struggle for so many couples and I'm hoping for the best for you and Kyle!
