Documents, signatures and meds.

It's officially official. Twenty six pages of initials and agreements. The contract is done and on its ways to my lawyers. The document is full of understanding that I am not the legal parent and have no intentions for parental rights after birth. It's covers payments, insurance, and basically anything and everything. With that being said, we final have legal clearance and we are all set for the transfer JANUARY 5th! 

The date is officially official. Yesterday I got stabbed again to check my hormone levels at LabCorp and then I drove all the way to San Fran area (hours drive) to get a 5 minute long ultrasound to make sure my uterus is thickening like it is supposed to. 

Side note- I learned a lot about my overies and how cysts form during ovulation. Totally weird. 

Anyways, as I'm typing away my door bell just rang and it was a welcome kit from Central Coast Surrogacy. It was stuffed with lots of goodies like a pill organizer, THANK GOD, pregnancy tests, journal, chocolate, and the good ol lucky socks! Whoop whoop! 

So with only 6 days until the big transfer, we are all set to go. Lots more stabbings and ultrasounds ahead, a little more queezys from the meds and a lot of bit of crazies (me). 

Lemmie Lemmie update ya....

Why haven't I written in so long? Well, let me tell ya. 

After flying down to San Diego for the pre screening, a quick date for the transfer was set for December and then unset. With doing a quick transfer came the possibility of me getting pregnant with my own baby because the doctors didn't have enough time to get me on birth control. Totally understandable. Also, with the transfer being in December, it would have landed the week before final exams and stress is just not something you want to throw into the mix while trying to conceive someone else's baby. 

Then came a waiting period to start the meds all over. When my "shark week", as I call it, came back the process began again. Back on estrogen medicine, which by the way make me pretty moody/emotional. I've been crying a lot. Even music makes me cry. I will take a blood test tomorrow that tells my doctors what my levels are and then I start another medicine that makes me at an optimal state for the transfer, set JANUARY 4,5 or 6th!!! Crazy right? So, in the mean time lets all be super excited that I'm crazy emotional and should be pregnant before my 29th birthday on January 10th. 

Want to know something cool? The embryo, once implanted, is already like already developed as much as a 4 week old embryo! Pretty stinkin cool if you ask me!
