Today was the day!

Hi Baby J!
Well, today was the big day. Within in the next 12 hours or so, we hope you are conceived! I finished all the meds, we did our ultrasounds and today, we had our final doctors appointment to "make" you! According to the docs, there are 4 eggs just waiting for the 23 million sperm that are on their way. We are going to pray that only 1 egg and 1 sperm get together so we only have 1 Baby J :)

This cycle went really quickly. I didn't notice the medicine until late last night & this morning. Then, I started getting that pain that comes with having so many eggs - while only 4 are ready, there are tons more growing and it makes for a sensitive mid section. I have been sick so I think I am more focused on my sinus issues than the feelings of the meds. But, it all wraps up together to make me sick!

We will wait about 2 weeks to see if you decided to join our family or not. I typically know about 3 days earlier than I should officially test. That would mean we may know something on Sunday the 17th. When I type that, it strikes me how ironic that is - we could learn if we are pregnant with you on the day that marks the anniversary of Xander & Jacob being born. If you decide that this isn't the month that you want to join us, we will probably skip October as I will be out of town during the crucial days that I would need to be at the doctor.

I pray that this works for us and you are ready to join our little family, Baby J. Your presence would make our family complete. :)
