It is the morning of Day 4 bedrest and I am going crazy!!! This morning I woke up extremely anxious and do not want to have to wait any longer. This by far is the worst part. Mario has been fantastic. He is really attentive and has my meals ready before I even ask. I wake up each day from a phone call from Jenn who has been my saving grace. I guess 28 years of friendship says a lot about somebody. She has been uplifting and gives me thoughtful things like mommy to be tea. The dogs have cuddled up to me all day and never want to leave my side. My mom is coming over today to make us more food. Tomorrow I finally get to take a shower and boy do I need it!! Maybe I will feel human again! Like I said this waiting is extremely difficult and I am stiff and my hips are so sore from the injections. My mind is constanly hoping for the best but so nervous. You realize all you have left is Faith, Trust, and Hope.
You have done everything possible up into this point in time and now we must hand it over to God. At he beginning I handed it over to him and that is how I got through the journey and now at the end I must hand it over to him once again. I keep desperatley searching for signs that I am pregnant. And I although I know it is way to early I can't help but hope.
