Welcome 2008

Happy New Year! Hubby and I spent a romantic evening together at home, it was very nice. We got a foot of snow overnight so we weren't in the mood to be out driving in that. I took down the Christmas tree today and hubby is watching football as I type. I didn't set any resolutions, but I am setting an intention.......I intend for us to become parents in 2008! There I said it, so if God is listening, or the universal laws of attraction are circling around......pay attention please!

I'm feeling lately like I should start looking into adoption now just to save some time later. I know we aren't done trying for a biological baby, and my hubby has a long way to go until he is open to adoption, but I am not one to wait and I'd rather start looking into it on my own now. I want to see what we will be up against considering I turn 40 in September, I want a baby, and I'd prefer a domestic adoption. Is it even possible to do a domestic adoption for an infant at my age? I have no clue. I guess I am getting a little ahead of myself.

We go on Jan. 8th for a consult with a doctor that we saw back in August. I want to see what his recommendations are - try IVF right away again, or do a couple rounds of IUI (that's what my husband wants to do). My current doctor says that IUI won't work with my husband's male factor issues, but we aren't convinced. Besides with the number (or lack of) eggs I produce, maybe IUI for a few months would be better. Either way, we'll be starting some type of ART cycle on January 25th - due date for my next period.

Well, I hope you get a plan. I always feel better with a plan on board - be it a stinky plan of waiting or a plan to be proactive. I hate the "let's play it by ear" crap.

I hope you get your 2008 wish!
