Baby Stopper has been removed....

Jessica and I met for lunch today at Flancer's. This is getting very real. Jess brought me some books to begin reading. One of them almost made me cry just reading the back!!! Today begins the first of many procedures over the next few months before I get fertilized :)

After lunch we went to my OBGYN. Jess stayed with me while I got my PAP and routine tests done and then held my hand while they removed my IUD. Ive had it in me for 7+ years and with a quick tug it was gone! We are lucky that I had 10 year non hormonal IUD. With any other we would have had to wait 6 months before they will even begin the process. Everything just seems to be falling into place.

Dr. Falk was amazing and so excited to be a part of this process. He has only done one other surrogacy in his career and it was within the last year and they delivered at the same Hospital we will. We both were reassured to hear this.

Next step is to meet with Dr Craig the fertility specialist where I will have a 3 hour appointment where they thoroughly examine me inside and out. We have to meet with the lawyer and a psychologist as well. Looks like October or November before we do our first try at putting their buns in my oven!!!  

My post on facebook says it all: "Beginning my year of abstinence... baby stopper is officially removed!"
