Happy 2009!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. I'm so glad it's a new year and I have so much hope that 2009 will be a good year for me. It's a fresh start and I look forward to the good things that will happen this year. It can only be better than 2008, right?

I've been a bad blogger! I really haven't had anything exciting to say, though. On the FET front, I'm taking my Estrac.e and gearing up for a monitoring appointment on Friday. From there, the RE will decide if January 16th is still the big day. Come on, thick lining! This cycle seems incredibly easy compared to a fresh ivf. I'm hardly even thinking about it! My only complaint is that I have massive headaches every night. Not sure what that's all about. I'm trying to not make a big deal out of this FET, to not let it interfere with my everyday life, and to not get my hopes up. Whatever happens, happens, and I will be able to handle it.

On another note, I saw "Marley and Me" last night. **SPOILER ALERT:** The main character has a miscarriage. It was so hard to see them go to the OB and sit on the table for their first ultrasound with all the excitement and anticipation of seeing their baby and the heartbeat, and be disappointed. The baby didn't have a heartbeat. The emotions of that, coupled with the emotions of the dog storyline made it a total sobfest! Great movie, though. Just bring a box of tissues if you go see it.

yay for your FET!! I am sending thick thoughts your way. I agree that it's WAY easier than a fresh IVF.

I read the book Marley and Me and for that reason don't have the courage to go see it!!

PS-I nominated you for an award
