In a few hours I'm going to pay someone to stick NEEDLES in various parts of my anatomy. I don't like needles.
I have a new reason to hope very hard that I catch in this cycle (or the next one but I'm pretty sure the timing won't work) -- we're moving on to IVF in March.
IVF means a LOT more needles.
The flip side to IVF (and the only thing besides the potential baby that's keeping me from freaking out about it) is that I've been told I can donate any leftover embryos (embryoes?) to help someone else get pregnant. I met a woman at fall camp who wouldn't be able to get pregnant without exactly that sort of help. Knowing I could help her makes the process feel even mor worthwhile.
But not any less scary.
