Hope springs eternal...

Light one candle...

So, I have this nagging ache in the pit of my gut today and I've been trying to figure out what it is. The best I can come up with is my realization that I may only be DAYS from having an embryo or two in my uterus.

This small sparkle of hope is a good thing. With it comes this panicked excitement that real hope, real joy, real anticipation may set in again. At least, I want it to. Alongside my hope is the painful reality of not only the what ifs, but the has beens. But, something stirring deep within wants me to believe that I might be on the threshold of something good.

And, that is a relief. After last night's chemically-induced migraine (there's only so much Lupron and Estrace this poor body can take), I feel as if I have towed a long road for this one and I'm getting tired. After being told to up the Estrace even more, I am hoping that tomorrow's early morning appointment reveals some new instructions that are geared for the finish line.

Hope springs eternal just as my desire for motherhood springs forth furiously...
