I'm getting myself all full of anxiety, excitement, nervousness, and anticipation. I hardly slept at all last night just thinking about how I will only be working today and tomorrow- and then I'll have my pre-op prep day, and then surgery!  I'm freaking out a bit.
A lady from the hospital just called a bit ago to let me know we're all set. I am the very first appointment on Thursday (which should mean my surgeon will be ready to go, right?!?), and I have to be at the hospital at 6am! The drive there is over an hour away- I've never been to this hospital before- so OMG. We'll be leaving before 5am for sure. My surgery is scheduled for 7:30am, and my surgeon thinks it will be about 2 and a half hours. The nurse said I will then be taken into recovery and will probably be there for a couple of hours. I requested to her that they put some anti-nausea meds in my IV, and she agreed. She already warned me that I'm going to feel just terrible afterwards. She said I have to have someone with me for 24 hours after the surgery, which luckily we have covered because my Mom is going to come over and stay with me on Friday.
Uhhh, everything is just so real now. We're all set and ready to go. Tomorrow is my last day of work for 2 weeks. Insane!!! Ahhhh, I'm freaking out!

I'm so excited that you're so close! I just know that everything will work out fine and you'll be seeing your BFP in no time! I'll be sure to say lots of prayers for a great success and a very quick recovery! I can't wait to hear how it all goes when you're up to letting us know!

Thanks, Cris!!  I am going to have Nikki (Coley) update on the main TTC#1 board for me. I'll probably throw a facebook status up at some point (if I'm not sleeping) so everyone knows I'm ok.  I hope you're right and I hope a BFP is just around the corner!

Add me to the excited for you column! I know that you are nervous, but in the end it will all be worth it. Just imagine having AF without all the pain, and then imagine seeing your

Thanks for being excited! And yes, OMG I am scared out of my mind!! Every second I'm getting more nervous, but I guess that is natural! I'm ready to be fixed, but scared to have it done!

I can't even imagine an AF without all the terrible pain. It's been going on for ever a year, so it's hard to imagine what "real" and "regular" cramps feel like as opposed to the stabbing feeling I've been suffering with. I truly hope this is the answer to my prayers.
I thank you all for being such a great support to me!! I couldn't do it without you!

I am really excited for you too! I just know you will get your BFP very soon!

Thank you ladies SO much! Today is my last day of work until August 21st!! It's insane how busy I've been and I can't get caught up. I'm stressing out big time, which to me is worse than worrying about surgery!! I can't believe it's only 2 more sleeps. UGH!! I hope this does really bring us one step closer to that BFP. HUGS ladies!! I should be around more tomorrow, since I'll be sitting still all day enjoying my clear liquid diet!
