It's felt like Christmas Eve for the past two nights. I've been so giddy and excited. Kyle's being a bit more cautious with his emotions so as not to get his hopes up.
Lugging the "cryo container" (for lack of a better word) around is slightly awkward and definitely causes people to look. After the nurse took "the boys" back to be thawed, I sat there waiting while butterflies took over my stomach. I couldn't believe I was nervous! I should be a pro at this by the 7th time.
The doctor came in and performed the IUI in 3 minutes flat. Then he set the timer and instead of wishing me luck and leaving, he sat and talked well past the timer going off. He's walked in our shoes and knew exactly what we've been through. He had patients waiting, but choose to stay, talk, and confide in me. At one point, I started to tear up while discussing how the past five years had changed me as a person. If it wasn't for the baby crying in the next room I think we could have continued the conversation for hours.
I've come to realize life doesn't go as you plan or hope. But there are moments when things come together and simply change your life. The past several days have been full of these moments and I feel like they've happened for a reason. It feels like a test and I think we passed. :)
Looking forward to tomorrow and the future...
