June 2015

Surrogacy update: I started the hormone patches on the 17th. I feel very fortunate that  I don't have to give myself injections! Thank goodness for advances in medicine. So far the side effects I'm experiencing are hot flashes, light headedness, acne, mood swings - like the entire world sucks and I hate everyone mood swings - lots of crying and fatigue.  Hormones are fun. The embryo transfer is set for July 9th.
