The results are in!

I need another drum roll please....

Guess what?!

I PASSED!!!!! 


 Holy Hannah I can't believe it!! I know I said I felt confident but that was all about the power of positive thinking. haha. They said it would take 2-4 weeks for the results to be posted online so I've been checking the results page every day for a week. It was making me so anxious! I didn't realize I would get an email. haha. But I did when I was driving home from women's conference on Friday. I had already called Justin to meet me at the gas station to help me fill my car with gas, so as I pulled in and parked by the pump, I opened the BOC website. I had been preparing myself on the drive for complete failure. I was certain at that moment I had failed the test. But I opened it up and saw that it said "Eligible for Certification"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
(This is the website. I was waiting for it to change from "Registered" to "Eligible for Cert." Had I failed, it would have gone the other way and said "Eligible for Exam" meaning I could take it again if I wanted. But I did not want that!) 

 I couldn't believe it. Justin had come up to my car and was checking on something and I practically honked in his face and waved him into the car. I started crying and screamed I PASSED! He gave me a confused look so I said "My Test! I Passed!" So he leaned over and hugged me and was just as excited as I needed him to be. haha. But then he said "We really need to find a better place to find out good news." hahaha. (We found out we were prego in the car too. haha) 

 Anyway, I am beyond thrilled and so relieved. This is what I've been working for for over 6 years and it's finally all paid off. All I have to do is send the BOC some verifications and it's all done. I can officially start practicing as an ATC. 

This is a dream come true!

All we know is...

The results are in folks... YES! We're pregnant!!! There are simply not words to describe how I feel about this statement. One I've been wanting to make for what seems like forever. One I've heard from so many of my friends and family that made me want to cry. One that seemed impossible to make. And one I am finally able to say for myself. I can't even believe it. We waited 2 LONG weeks to find out whether or not our little frozen circle would become our miracle. And when I say long, I mean long. Especially when I was supposed to start my period on Friday. Last Friday. So usually when you're trying to get pregnant, you wait till the day your period is supposed to start and you wait... If it doesn't come, you run to the store and buy that expensive little stick and awkwardly try to pee on it. (Maybe they aren't really expensive, but it kinda seems that way, right ladies??)  Anyway, then you wait a few minutes and see what it says. I...

Me No Likey

Oh where to start... In the "It finally started" post I said that I had finally started the process of IVF. (clever title, eh?) I also said that I hadn't really felt anything so far. Well, turns out I either jinxed myself or it was just too early to tell. I didn't have crazy effects, but one night I did cry all the way through "Master Chef" which is not really a crying show. haha. I also felt super "off" on Thursday. I'm not really sure how to describe it except to say just that. It was weird and I stayed in bed all day and cried and ate Blue Bell. I guess that's not the worst way to spend a day but it wasn't very productive either. haha. The shots got easier and easier to give myself up until I had to start taking the cetrotide. I only took it twice but both times it stung going in and lasted way longer than the others. No bueno in my book. The next new shot I had was the trigger shot. It came a day earlier than expected but that end...

Next Step

I've been avoiding this post for a while now. In fact, a long time... I've been thinking about it since I wrote the post about our little grey circles that didn't make it. I like writing but the last few weeks have been kinda blah. I also think I've been a little hesitant because I've always wanted these posts to be super happy and chipper but that's not exactly how I feel. After the last post I did get a lot of really nice feedback, one in particular that made me feel extra good. My aunt is an incredible person and I love talking to her. She said to me that no matter how long those grey circles were my babies, they still were and I was allowed to grieve as much as I wanted. I think that kind of gave me permission to really cry and it made me feel a lot better. Thanks Kim. :)  But now we're on to bigger and better things. I can't lie and say that I'm super excited about this transfer. I think I got WAY too excited for the last one/first one and it ...
