Today's the day...

Today is my RE appointment. I'm excited and nervous all at once. My appointment is this afternoon, so come back and look for an update this evening.

I've been thinking about TTC again. I had put off those thoughts before by telling myself (and dh) that we need to wait until the appointment with the RE. So now that it's here, I am thinking about what's next. I would expect the RE to want us to wait a cycle or two so that we can complete testing. But it's still in the nearer future.

I'm scared about TTC. I'm excited. I'm feeling cautious, like there is eminent danger ahead. But, as a friend pointed out on one of the message boards that I'm on, this is something that we will have to face if we ever want to hold a baby in our arms.

I've never been very good about facing my fears. I still avoid ladders and high places. I don't jump into new things with both feet usually. But this, which is probably one of the greatest fears in my life, I will face. And God help me, I'll beat it, and one day I'll be complaining about stretch marks and grey hairs that my little ones have caused.

With Faith and Patience...
