Acupuncture

I had more bleeding today after acupuncture.  I was making my next appointment and blood started running down my face, gross! I knew it wasn't a huge deal because I had just talked to my acupuncturist about it, but I still freaked out.  I tried my best to stay calm because I thought I might pass out.  I don't know, something about my own blood just freaks me out.  My acupuncturist cleaned it up for me and I was fine!  He explained that the head is prone to bleeding and the baby aspirin I am taking isn't helping either.  So, I go back next Monday but am so nervous now because I hate blood :( 

On another note, I had a friend tell me today that she has shared our blog with two friends: one who is going through IVF and one who is contemplating starting fertility treatments.  This just made my day because this is one of the main reasons we wanted to be so open about this.  We wanted others to know that it is o.k. to be open about infertility (it is actually very therapeutic)! I know there are worse things in life to be experiencing, however, fertility issues can totally consume your life.  It's nice to be able to reach out to others or to just be open and honest about treatments to let others know what to expect if they decide to embark on this journey. 

Less than a week now until we find out!  We are dying to know!  Hoping work will help take my mind off it, it's been two weeks since I worked (b/c of our sicknesses and IVF treatments).  I miss my little kiddos!  Let's hope they don't get me sick again :)
