Winter wonderland


So no news here...Except we have snow! Winter has come and I thought I'd be preggo by now..I'm keeping myself busy with the normal mom of 4 life and trying not to worry about when i will hear the next step. So I've been really enjoying everyone's blogs and reading about the different parts they are at. I will chat with you all again once i have some news. Till then!

it's a negative

Have some sad news to share. I did my blood work on Monday and it was a negative so keeping our fingers and toes crossed, i went back on wednesday hoping for a better result. But sill a no:( Pretty bummed out this week. I felt guilty and started thinking what did i do wrong? I know i took it easy, i know i didn't carry around the kids or laundry or even the grocery. I ate healthy and got plenty of rest?? So what went wrong...
My heart was hurting the most for the IPs, feeling bad and getting my self down about it isn't helping anyone. So I'm done. It wasn't meant to happen and this next time it will work! I've been in contact with GG and the IPs and we all are going to move forward as soon as possible. I will have to wait and hear when that time will be after they get into contact with the egg donor. I guess complaining about starting the shots all over again isn't worth it. I don't mind, as long as I get pregnant!! I've read a ton of blogs and chatted with other surrogates this week, the support is amazing:)

The man behind the surrogate


Just wanted to say that I couldn't do any of this without my husband. He is amazing. He is my rock. The support i have from him is everything i need to do this. We have been a couple for 12 years and the love for him is as strong as it has ever been. Being a husband to a surrogate can't be the easiest..with the questions and people wonder why he's letting his wife get "knocked up" with someone else's child etc. He has done everything perfect for me with this decision to become a surrogate.
