I'm done with the BCPs!!

Yay!! Thank goodness! I did not like those things at all and I'm so glad to be done with them!

My daily dates with Lupron are going really well. Mark has been giving me my shots and he's done so well. He's so gentle and does such a wonderful job. There was 1 day that he had an insulin reaction and was kind of out of it. I ended up having to give myself the shot. It really went well and wasn't too bad. However, as long as Mark can give it to me, I'm all up for that. :) He did feel horrible that he wasn't there to give me my shot, but it all ended up good. :)

I've been doing acupuncture and have had 4 treatments so far. That's going really well. I'm not as tired as I used to be. I find I'm sleeping much better and I find that I'm not as emotional as I have been. All are contributed to the acupuncture. I'm really glad I started it.

I talked to my acupuncturist/chiropractor yesterday. She's so awesome. I'm so blessed to have found a Christian one who really cares about patients and isn't just in it for the money. She was very encouraging yesterday. I was telling her how I was praying so much that this will work. She said it'll help to pray for the blessings that we will have babies. No matter what, through this, Mark and I will have babies....we will be parents! God will provide us with babies. Some will go to heaven and it'll be hard, but we'll see them again. Hopefully 1 or 2....maybe 3 (whoa!)....will stay here with us and what a joyous day that will be.

That talk with her really helped. We are so blessed.

Thank you God for:
1. Giving us our babies.
2. Giving us this opportunity to be able to become parents.
3. Making this a "joint" effort by letting Mark give me my shots and making him feel more involved.
4. Giving us time to be together and have a great time. Our drives are so long, but we spend so much time together and laugh a lot. This is time Mark would otherwise be sleeping at home and not spending together.
5. Providing for us financially. Money has always been there for us.
6. Loving us and showing us we're not alone through this.
