Day One

Today we begin our journey. Although you could say it started a while ago when Stacy and I decided it would be nice to have a baby. After a period of trying on our own, we found ourselves seeking the help of the Center for Reproductive Medicine [http://www.ivf-minnesota.com/] -- a decision that eventually led us to choose IVF (in-vitro fertilization).

The process will involve a series of shots and medication. Today we start with shot number one. Thankfully it is a small subcutaneous needle. Stacy gets the short end of the stick on this one (no pun intended), but at least they are easing us into it.
