Numero Uno

Here I sit at the computer, home sick from work. I decided to use a blog to keep track of the craziness of trying to become mommies. Liz will probably be the one doing the majority of the posting. This should be a little easier than sending out emails to individual people with updates all the time. I'm not sure if it will be interesting, but a way to keep record non the less.

After looking, talking, thinking and wanting for a long time, we decided not to postpone the start of our family any more. After doctors appointments for me (Liz) to make sure I am healthy, a scare from weird bloodtests... 9 vials of blood later, I was given a clean bill of health to start the process. We have contacted a doctor, as we have decided to go for IUI vs. turkey baster, and should get to go see them soon to get the ball rolling I hope. I started the prenatals already and and have been eating a lot healthier. No coffee, no alcohol, much less sugar, and many other things that can reduce fertility or be bad for a baby. We have picked out our baby juice (sperm) and it is ready and waiting for us to come and get it when the time comes. We have been baby shopping, and have much more than we should at this point in time, just waiting for the little ones to use it all. At this point it is just a waiting game...darn doctors.
