Day 2

Today my DH was home and he let me sleep in! I did not get up until around 10:00 which I really needed. I was a little nauseous but after I took my pills and ate some breakfast I began to feel better. My stomach turned a little later in the afternoon as well but I ate a bagel and it stopped. I have been really tired today. Like I'm dragging a little and I have been a little more emotional than usual (crying and getting angry)! But other than that it has been a good day.

The Nurse called from the clinic to check on me in the morning and the Dr. called later that afternoon. I also had calls from friends checking up on me and I felt a lot of love and support from them and family.

I talked to my DH about the fertility clinic. We were told before that there would be no way we could have children and that we should get my tubes tied - we did not - and I'm glad because Johns Hopkins said that was not true. But during those 6 months we had talked about adopting and we both felt really good about that. We have 3 children but really feel we have one more coming to our home. I don't care how he gets here so we decided that instead of spending the money on harvesting eggs now, storing them for years, and then maybe getting those eggs to be a baby later...we would rather spend that money adopting. There are babies out there that need a home and I have already given birth (beautiful births and wonderful pregnancies) 3 times. And we can try after chemo and if it works good and if not we can adopt! No worries now!
