Questions

It's a late night here.  12:45 and I'm getting ready to go to bed.  I'm just sitting here getting ready to take my vitamins.  I went to the Colt's game and just got home a little while ago.  I went with my best friend from high school.  It's sad that we lost and there won't be anymore Colt's games this season.  I was thinking on my way to the car that by the time another game comes around, I probably won't be able to go because I'll have BABIES!  :)  If Jason is home he will have to take a friend while I watch from home.  That will probably be happening quite a bit next season.  But that's okay.  I went to every game this season while Jason was stuck in another country so I guess it should be his turn!

I had a hotdog at the game almost 6 hours ago.  I was pretty hungry when I came home so I just had a big bowl of Cheerios.  I'm not really sure if I should take these vitamins or not because there's a good chance I will be throwing everything up shortly.  I wonder if I can avoid it by laying down and resting?

I never know the best way to answer questions that are left in the comments.  Should I answer IN the comments?  Answer on the person's blog?  Send a private message?  So, I think I will just answer in my next post.  At least that will usually give me something to talk about in the next post.  I usually have no idea what to talk about.  I'm not an interesting blogger by any means.  More of a "I did this & this & this today" kind of blog which I know isn't always interesting.  But anyway...

Kelly - Yes, it's a really good thing they only put two eggs in there!  I was convinced from my last IVF doctor that either my eggs were horrible quality or my uterus sucked and nothing would ever want to implant in there.  So up until the day of my transfer I was secretly planning on begging the doctor to put three back just to improve my chances.  I'm glad we didn't. I'm worried enough about 2 babies staying put long enough to develop completely and be 100% healthy.  The chances of that happening with 3 babies is even less.  But overall it's good to know that my eggs DON'T stink & my uterus is a wonderfully cozy places to snuggle in to.

J won't be home until sometime in August likely.  His orders are for "no more than 400 days".  400 days would be August 26th.  So we really don't know when he will be home.  Just that it will be before the 26th.  I'm going to assume it will be later than sooner.  Based on IVF calculators online, a singleton would be due September 1.  It averages twins to be around Aug 10.  Of course that date is completely up in the air because we don't know what will happen, but it isn't looking promising for him to be home in time for the birth.  When we decided on when to do IVF, we decided December because he would be home in time.  We knew multiples were a possibility but with our history we really didn't think it would happen.

Good news though, is that J gets a two week leave at the end of Feb.  I am so excited.  We are countng down the days.  We are in to the 40's now of our countdown.  I am going to fly to Key West and he is going to go directly there too instead of coming home. We are going to stay there and relax for two entire weeks, just us.  I can't wait to see him!  It will have been over 5 months without seeing him!

Casey asked how I felt about the whole twin thing.  I don't even know where to begin!  I've been trying to figure this out myself for the last 38 hours!  I'll try to answer this as best I can in my next post when it's not after 1:00 am and I'm completely exhausted!  So stay tuned!

Valerie - Thank you for your comment.  It is so sweet when people you really don't know in real life get so happy for you that they can shed tears of joy.  I really appreciate you! 

That's it for now!  I'm off to bed.  Hoping I can sleep in tomorrow!  I'm usually a champion sleeper but anymore I've been waking up way to early for me!  Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend!
