jenn_unpluggedGuess what I was doing one year ago today?
Recovering from egg retrieval surgery. It's weird to think that was a year ago, and that the random sperm (out of millions) selected by the embryologist that was injected into one of the 17 eggs that were retrieved, and that grew into one of 11 embryos, and that then was one of the two embryos picked to be transferred back into me, and was the one that survived -- all of that randomness resulted in the baby who is sleeping next to me. I had no idea what I was in for then. I thought the hard part was over, and that I would then just be pregnant and get to feel normal, at long last.
Heh.
Speaking of that baby, it took me three hours to get him to settle down to sleep tonight. I think he's teething, actually. He's drooling and chewing on things, and I think I feel some little bumps on his top gums. It seems way too early for that, but maybe not. He was really fussy tonight, and nothing would settle him down. He liked sucking on my finger as I massaged his gums, though. Ai-yi-yi, teeth on the way...
