so we are getting very close to trying to conceive for the first time!! :D i can't even really explain how exciting it is! i mean, obviously, i always wanted to have kids. and then even through this whole process, you know that you're doing all these tests in order to get pregnant. but i feel like it didn't completely "click" for me until this week... the week leading up to our first try!! yaaaaay!! so excited and soooo hoping for the best!!
since we're not using fertility drugs (although we might, if it doesn't work after a couple times), we found out that acupuncture helps to increase your chances of trying to conceive and helps to eliminate stress. i read about the benefits on several different websites. plus, we actually know another couple who had an acupuncture treatment before and after their IVF and they are now pregnant! (so happy for them, btw!)
so our schedule for the next few days is pretty jam-packed! we have one or possibly two ultrasounds, two inseminations if everything looks good, two or possibly three acupuncture appointments, a birthday party, a bridal shower, a double date, and a partridge in a pear tree!!
