Meds Arrive!


My meds arrived!!  In a large Styrofoam ice chest, packed down with ice packs.   

There’s.  So.  Much.  

 It’s so exciting, but so overwhelming.  And for the next few nights, I dreamed about needles.  Just a few more days, then we’re on our way!!!  Our medicine start date is Thursday, June 19th.  I’ve already been on birth control and prenatal vitamins for a little over a month now.  I was extremely nauseated and felt horrible the first week.  I changed my time to take them from mornings to nights, hoping to sleep through some of this nausea.  It seems to help.  I still have a small wave of nausea come over me periodically, but it doesn’t seem to last very long.  But my hormones… oh my.  I feel like a teenager all over again.  Every feeling and emotion is so ridiculously amplified.  Too many wires and cords at the computer- “Just get rid of the stupid computer!!!”  A lady pulling out in front of us, (while throwing my hands up in the air) “What are you thinking?!”  Poor Justin.  I normally have such a calm, laid back, care-free personality, but right now I feel like such a teenage drama queen.  It’s ridiculous.

  1. Hang in there Krystal. It is a crazy journey. Just know that all the meds, shots, and heartache will all be worth it once you hold that baby for the first time. My Wesley is almost seven. It's seems like it was just yesterday. He is such a blessing to our family. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
