Success?!

Holy smokes. Okay, so Vegas was AMAZING!! I was spoiled rotten and thoroughly enjoyed the time I was able to spend with a few other surrogates and the corporate team from my agency. Wow! What an incredible experience. It almost feels like ALL the heartache and bumpy roads throughout the last 6 years were totally worth it to land me on that trip with those people. <3 To say I had a blast and feel refueled is a complete understatement.

Anyway, while I was there I was able to have my match meeting with A (aka Mr. Italy). I'm going to leave out about a million details here and just fast forward to the part where we made it an OFFICIAL MATCH!! :) :) Can you hear the angels singing? Because I'm pretty sure I can!!

Okay - so what's next? Well... Next week I head out to LA to meet with the fertility doctor and my nurse coordinator. Most of my medical screenings from last year are still valid, so it shouldn't be too brutal, but I do have to repeat the mock transfer. Womp womp!

A's donor is in the process of cycling for her egg retrieval so at this point, it looks like A will be headed to LA to help create the embryos the first week (ish) of April. If that's the case, I'm more than prepared to hop back on a plane and head out west again because I am SO STINKING EXCITED to meet him!! We talk daily and I have so enjoyed getting to know him, and seeing as how he's all the way across the world, I absolutely can't miss this opportunity to get together before this journey officially kicks off. Squeeeeeal!

After the embryos are created and tested, I'll start my meds and we will have an official transfer date. Hoping to get this show on the road asap! I'll keep y'all posted but so far so good, we seem to be back on track and headed in the right direction again. Hallelujah!
