We have landed.. For now

So, once again more than a month goes by with no posts. This time I have excuses. We have moved. That was fast, right? Shortly after my last couple of posts we decided to make the jump to Boston for the short-term. One thing that sealed the deal for us was hubby got a new job. A jib that just happens to be in Boston. Our decision was made for us. It made much more sense for us to make the move and hubby have a 10 minute walk to the office while I maintain my 30 mintue commute(just now in the opposite direction), instead of schelping on the commuter rail for 3 hours per day. With the job and the baby thing it made all the sense in the world. So we were off to find a new pad to call home. We found it and moved in last Monday. We are just about settled into our new(very small)space. We have a small "extra" room that we hope will some day soon be perfect for a new addition to our family. We have also settled into our new routines. The dog is beyond happy with our new digs. He has never has so many four legged friends. I could not be happier about that. Hubby is back on his groove,with the new job and city vibe all round. Me, I have beome a human pin cushion. That is my other BIG news. The process has begun. For the last 8 days I have given myself a 1/2 inch shot filled with suppression meds in the tummy. So, far so good. Only side effects have been some slight headaches and night sweats. On satruday I find out if my one shot again gets to turn into two shots again. And get this..I hope it does. How crazy is that? That second shot begins the stimulation phase of this process. It allows my to mature multiple eggs instead of just the one. I am not sure how long I will take these shots. I think it will be somewhere between 10 and 14 days. Once I have lots of mature eggs I have the retrieval. Then onto the transfer.
I promised myself I would try to document this crazy process should I need to go thru it again. So, I should be checking in daily from here on out.
