Meds have been ordered
The pharmacy called on Friday. Meds have been officially ordered for the donor. They will be delivered the day she gets back from vacation - next Tuesday. I'm assuming she'll be going in for u/s and blood work shortly after that and if all looks well, she'll start stimming. I'm starting to get a little excited because after reading about so many others who were where I am right now and then just a few weeks later, they were pregnant, I realize how quickly all this can happen. Yet, I know how quickly all your hopes and dreams can be crushed, too, but for now my goal is to be positive and optimistic for as long as I can. I know I may be setting myself up for a harder fall by doing that, but I'm well aware of what I'm getting myself into. I'm going into this with my eyes wide open - if I crash and burn - so be it. For now, I'm going to be completely hopeful and optimistic!

Riley, I know how difficult hope and optimism can be but in the absence of a reason to be legitimately concerned about your donor (or your own progress), there is no benefit in being concerned.
I say, do your homework, make sure everything's on schedule and that you're as informed as you can be on the donor's numbers, progress, etc. and on your own lining development and everything else is just out of our hands (which I hate but...).
It'll be here before you know it and you'll be in the 2ww going nuts soon! :)
WOOHOO for being hopeful and optimistic. It's right around the corner, now, and you know what? You've got a DAMNED good chance of walking away from that transfer table pregnant with a keeper, so why not celebrate it from the beginning? One of the worst things about this whole process is the way we all try to rein in of our emotions, attempting to protect ourselves. I've seen it too many times with women who've been through this, and you know what? For me, anyway, it didn't work - it didn't insulate me from the pain, it just kept me from enjoying the good stuff. And this? This is totally good stuff!!!
Three cheers for beginning a new cycle!
I agree with Sprog - you have to live it up during the good parts! You really can't protect yourself from a disappointment, and since your chances are VERY good you should just be excited! Fingers crossed for you -
You are a few weeks ahead of me and I am so excited for you. I love your attitude - its so easy to slip into the whole 'what if' spiral. Yey, for you!
Stay positive! Yes, it can happen! I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for you and follow along. BTW, your tomatoes look great! I really liked looking at your garden photos.
