So I finally broke down and created an account.

Here is our adoption donation page:

The friend that told me she was adopting…

She texted me this morning.  She took a pregnancy test this morning just to be sure.  And she’s pregnant.  Not paper pregnant.  For real pregnant.

I love her.  And I’m seriously excited to be adopting.  But it hurt a little to hear that.

I’m going to work really hard to raise money over the next few days so we can bring our baby home soon.  Please help me!

Hi guys!

I really need some help.  The adoption agency wants us to move forward with the home study.  Yay!  But, unfortunately, that means somehow coming up with $1000 in a very short amount of time.  To help raise money, we are selling t-shirts that support our adoption process and helps some adoption charities at the same time.  If you are willing to give us a little help, please check out our fundraiser site:  www.adoptionbug.com/ldcleveland

Here’s a couple examples of the shirts:

We have officially begun the adoption process.  And to help raise money to support this, we used Adoption Bug to help create a fundraiser.

A couple days ago, one of my employees told me that she is pregnant.  She is 44 years old and a lesbian that has been living with her girlfriend for 7 years.  It is a really rocky relationship and things at home have been obviously rough.  She cheated on her girlfriend and got pregnant.  She told me that she was going to end it and have an abortion.  I offered to take the baby if she wanted to go through with the pregnancy.  I haven’t spoken to her in a couple days so I have no idea if it is going to work out or not.

Today, a friend of a friend from college posted on Facebook that she was raped and is pregnant and giving the baby up for adoption.  I haven’t offered to adopt the baby yet, but I did send her an email. 

Is this all a sign that we should be adopting?

Spotting started.

This month is pretty much over.

I never think that I can feel any worse at the end of each cycle.  And then I’m always surprised that I really can feel worse each time.

I was so excited that I was able to do the injection myself.

Then I get severe symptoms of OHSS.

I feel like I’m dying.

Got a positive OPK yesterday and then an even darker one this morning.  I am scheduled to start the IUI process at 2:00pm today.  About 2 hours.  Pretty nervous.  But very excited!

We’re doing an IUI this cycle.  Its been decided.  And progesterone injections.  So not looking forward to that part!

Well, I made it through Mothers Day without crying.  AND I did NOT take a test this morning.  I’m a little anxious about it, but I think I’ll survive lol.

Now I’m making cinnamon rolls.  Baking always makes me feel better :)
