Her Eggs My Basket: November 2014
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Wednesday, November 26, 2014. It's been almost a week since we got our positive beta and I'm still smiling. I can't tell you how touched I was that Baby Mama offered to guest blog the announcement. I'm still so giddy for them. That puppy was DARK. I relaxed a little knowing my repeat beta was the next morning. It would only be about 24 more hours of waiting. And the Cali clinic wouldn't open for another two and a half hours. UGH. I emailed the orders over...

Her Eggs My Basket: Repeat Beta
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2015/06/repeat-beta.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Monday, June 29, 2015. Beta number two this morning! Friday's numbers came in at 433, and in a typical healthy pregnancy that number will double every 2 days at this stage of the game. So to be on the safe side we were looking for something in the 1,200 range. Let's be honest. I just love pee sticks. Anyway, the clinic called me back lickety split this morning and said my levels were FABULOUS! Progesterone and thyroid look swell too. I'm going to keep sen...

http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Guest Rooms and Guest Wombs. Whoa baby it's been a whirlwind the past few weeks. I had to reread my last post so I could see exactly what you people know about. Last you heard I'd just started my injections. Well as of yesterday I am stopping my Lupron injections! While Hubs was away I had a very special visitor! Again, I've heard horror stories about IPs, but my Baby Mama is just the coolest. Then again I've heard horror st...

Her Eggs My Basket: April 2015
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Well the saline ultrasound went swimmingly. Dr. B blew some liquid up in my lady parts to get a good look at the baby baker, and again she used the word "Beautiful.". Step one: success. The oven is now preheating, and we are less than 4 weeks away from T Day! And already I'm stocking up on pee tests. Target had a clearance sale and mommy went bananas. Jiminy Christmas. Fine. Well it's very rare that I see bloodwork like this.".

Her Eggs My Basket: September 2014
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Tuesday, September 30, 2014. Hubs brought home a violent stomach bug yesterday, so he and I spent the night paying our respects to the porcelain gods. All I can say is hooray for two downstairs bathrooms. But all that lurching must've awoken my sleeping uterus because she is angrily cramping me right into the start of my cycle! These are strange emotions. I can start BCPs tomorrow! Ok ok ok uterus.I get it. You and embie are in charge. But it is GO TIME!

http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2015/06/waffles-with-sauce.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Friday, June 26, 2015. Well friends I had my blood draw today at the clinic and guess what? My waffle is pasta sauced. I mean MY EGGO IS PREGO! I've been waiting to post these all week! This is from this morning in Target after my blood draw. My fellow surro sisters knew my beta was today, so they started taking bets on what my levels would be. I guessed 102. To recap, my first beta last time we transferred was 37. I AM OFFICIALLY KNOCKED UP! Is a freelan...

Her Eggs My Basket: July 2015
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Welp we are officially graduates of Reproductive Endocrinology. We had our final appointment with Dr. B today and it was beautiful. We saw little Gummy Bear, and she was wiggling about like a little dancing queen. Baby Mama saw her heart just fluttering away. I'm not sure what they clocked it at, but I thought it was somewhere around 160? And she totally wiggled a paddle! I almost fell off the table, and we all squealed. I was ne...

Her Eggs My Basket: February 2015
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. The results are in, and I hope this is the last time during this journey I report this. But my levels are finally back down to zero! Typically an hcg level of zero is bad news in the pregnancy world. But for us it means that my body is back to normal after the loss, and we can start ramping up to try again. It's ground zero for our next attempt, and I am feeling hopeful and excited. Wednesday, February 4, 2015. Recovery has g...

Her Eggs My Basket: Ultrasound Graduation
http://hereggsmybasket.blogspot.com/2015/07/ultrasound-graduation.html
Her Eggs My Basket. My journey through surrogacy. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Sorry about the delayed update, but I've been in a war against my eyelids and they are winning. This kid is an extreme hcg producer. Like gifted for sure. I was never this sick with my own little keepers. This sickness and exhaustion is unrivaled, so kudos little hippie baby! We had our 8 week ultrasound just one day shy of 8 weeks on Tuesday, and everything looks absolutely fabulous. Our first midwife appointment is the week of ...
