I'm getting pregnant today!!! *Post-transfer update on page2

Oh, I've already tucked them away, along with the ID bracelet from the procedure.  I'll break the socks out again if we go for a second pregnancy (my sister is in the early stage process of donating eggs), but don't plan to wear them other than that.



I have a collection of things saved to show the baby once she is grown. A lot of them are related to my cancer (to explain why her parents had her so late, and to plant the idea that cancer is not always as scary as it sounds, since there is a very, very high likelihood that she will develop breast or ovarian cancer during her lifetime), like a photobook of me from diagnosis through growing hair back and ID bands from chemo, some of my hats and my wig, etc. 


I am keeping all my needles/syringes/medication vials, etc and will totally copy an idea I saw online with all the detritus of IVF laid out in a heart shape. I'll put my embryo picture and an ultrasound picture in the middle. I'll wait to do this, because I am doing shots every day for the next 10 weeks, plus a second shot every 3rd day, so I'll have lots of syringes and vials to add to this.



(on a side note, my kitty has been on SQ fluids for over 5 years now for kidney failure, and I still have all the used (capped) needles from that. They are stored in gatorade bottles and just need to be disposed of, but for some reason I have been holding on to them. I am now thinking of taking a photo of them with 'this is love' written in script with those supplies once my kitty passes on, along with a picture of him and his brother (who died a few years ago after HE needed SQ fluids for kidney failure for 4 years). I have given him fluids 5 days a week, so that is about 1400 needles so far!)
