Exciting news. We are heading out in seven minutes to go to Seattle where we will have our adopted embryos implanted!
Saturday morning at 11:45 Odessa will get pregnant. The whole procedure will take about 10 -15 minutes. Then we will have to have a very relaxing day, want to give the embryos a chance to get attached to the womb lining.
We would like to thank Jon and Jessica for letting us stay at their place in Seattle, John and Kelly for taking our oldest to a cross country meet while we are gone, and Greg for staying at the house and keeping the animals alive!
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we travel. Especially pray for our babies as they thaw and 'wake up'.
God, in whom 'we live and move and have our being" (Acts 17:28), bless our little ones with safety. We know that "in [your] hand is the live of every creature" (Job 12:10) and that You desire to knit and build life in a way pleasing to You. My Father God "who forms [people] in the womb...maker of all things, who stretches out the heavens, who spreads out the earth by [Yourself] (Psalm 139:13) please grant us Your continuing favor and peace "which transcends all understanding" (Phil 4:7). God, guide the doctors and nurses, hold their hands and their minds, keep them focused. Give us strength, give us Yourself. Thank you.
So how long will it take you to get "results"? I'm praying for you two and anxiously await news!
ReplyDeleteWe will have a pregnancy blood test in about 2 weeks and an early OB ultrasound scheduled for October 20 where we will hopefully be able to see how many took.
