Thankful




Well, here it is!!! Only one in there with one strong heartbeat!!! I am so excited now. I graduated from the RE today. She gave me a big hug :). She said miscarriage at this point is only around 5%, so I hope that's accurate!


Still no nauesea, and for that I'm thankful. I am just pretty tired, but nothing compared to my "hit by a bus" feeling from Saturday. Hopefully that was just a fluke! And still with the night sweats, but I guess I'm getting used to them!


Due around June 1st.



Thank you everyone for your good lucks and well wishes. I am so greatful to have all of you!

Nervous

So my ultrasound is tomorrow at 9:30. The time cannot go fast enough. I am judging by my rapidly expanding body, that I have positive things going on in there. Hopefully it's not THREE positive things, but I will take what I can get. (I had 3 good eggs at time of trigger...yikes!)

I have been doing a lot of yoga, pilates, and walking....pretty much the same as I did before. I don't feel as wiped out as I did on Saturday, so maybe that was just a fluke. Who knows. Everything is such a mystery to me as I have obviously never done this before! I will feel so much more confident after seeing a HB tomorrow. I know I won't be out of the woods yet, but I will be one step closer! Fingers crossed.

A coworker told me she is also pregnant today. (My coworkers have been following my IF journey closely even though they don't really "get it", so they all know at this point. It's a great group). For once, I wasn't jealous! It was such a wild feeling to be able to finally have something in common with a "regular" person, although I must say I still indentify much more with the IF'ers of the world.

And in other news, my dad just joined Facebook. Not sure how I feel about that! I don't think he quite gets it yet. I'm sure he'll soon be addicted like I am!

CD12 UGH

So I had my CD12 u/s today. They moved me back a day from CD11 b/c I didn't have a lot going on yet that early in the cycle with my previous months. I was hoping for big things today. No suck luck. I had my worst ovary "performance" yet. I only had 1 decent follicle, and it was only 12mm. She wants to me to come back on Monday for another u/s. If it hasn't grown significantly by then, the IUIs will be a waste of $ and cancelled. *SIGH*. Here's hoping big things happen to my poor little ovaries this weekend!

This time I saw the NP there for the first time, and I must say...even though I had to wait quite awhile before the came in, she was much less rushed and answered a lot of questions. She said it would make sense to her also to move onto injectibles, esp if the next u/s doesn't show much progress. She also said another option would be to take another round of Femara this month. But since it's really expensive AND it makes me feel like total crap, I think I will hold off on that idea.

BUT one good thing is that my lining is almost at 7mm finally! YAY!!!! FINALLY.
