Here we go again. A lot of medication including daily intramuscular shots with the longest needle you've ever seen ; )
I had been feeling really negative with regards to this process lately. I just didn't think we'd end up with a baby. I think, more than anything, I was trying to shield myself. I don't want to get my hopes up. I want to stay realistic. Realistically, our chances for a pregnancy are 50%. That's not horrible, but also not a guarantee. So, in order to be a bit more positive, I took a note from 'The Secret', made a sign an posted it throughout the house.
If we do get pregnant, we know it will be a boy and I've been thinking of baby names. I really wish I hadn't done this, as I feel it's a jinx (I'm all about the jinxes!). But the damage has been done and I like Luca. A good friend of mine's mother-in-law suggested we name our next kid something Luca. I can't remember what she said for the first name, but Luca has stuck with me and as I was thinking of our little one Luca seems right.

I was reading up and now have higher hopes for a successful thaw. I'm thinking our major obstacle, the other 50% comes from implantation, which is where the acupuncture comes in. That's why they do that, to help the lining thicken for implantation. I found a lady yesterday, and feel very good about her. I gave her one piece of info and from that she knew all the rest of what we're doing, very smart lady! I wish I had $ to see her all the time, she mentioned she could help w/ my headaches. Maybe one day...
Yah and it's a total jinx to name this little one. But he is here, so at least there's that :P
