March recap

In March the weather was warm one day and cold the next.  One day we would be out washing our cars in the warm sun and the next day we were in long sleeves at the Zoo just trying to stay warm.  March was a bit emotional for me.  I found out that my fertility insurance at work was being canceled and we would no longer have any help with treatments in the future.  This was a huge blow.  Justin and I talked and agreed to contact my RE for some tests and to see what treatments we could fit in in March.  I had some labs drawn and met with Dr. Dunn.  Everything looked ok for my age but not good enough for me to get pregnant on my own.  I asked to do an unmedicated IUI but Dr Dunn said that with my advanced endometriosis it wouldn't' work and would just be a waste of our time and money.  He and I sat in his office discussing our options and why endo causes infertility.  Before I left the appointment we agreed that we would look at doing a frozen transfer of our last 4 remaining embryos in June of 2012, after we had saved up for the procedure.  As I was saying goodbye to him (I love this doctor!) I told him "Well, despite everything, I am still believing that God will give me a miracle."  He smiled at me and gave me a nod of approval - although I wonder if it was more a nod of "poor girl just doesn't get it, it won't happen"  LOL

Besides the fertility drama we went to the livestock show with Deacon, celebrated my birthday (31 - woot!) and we had a baby shower for Carrie.  Then on March 24th we welcomed Layla Wahli Daligou into the world.  Congrats to Carrie and Dali and big sister Sophia!

I almost forgot to add that Deacon had his first dentist appointment this month.  He was perfect!  He laid in the chair, opened wide and sat still the whole time.  Afterward he got a toothbrush and a prize!
