Default Much better!

So I had my follie check again today and it went much better. He found 3 on my right side, all of them good size, I don't remember, but around 15mm? He wasn't all that thrilled with my lining (he just said it wasn't as thick as he'd like it), so I'm wearing some patches to beef it up. I'm going to trigger tonight with IUI on Sunday!

I'm glad everything turned out OK after all!

My Jewels....12/07
Where did I come from?" the baby asked its mother. She answered, half-crying, half-laughing, and clasping the baby to her breast: "You were hidden in my heart as its desire, my darling. You were in the dolls of all my childhood games. In all my hopes and my loves, in my life, in the life of my mother, and in her mother before her, you have lived."

Barbara! We're gonna go through that 2ww together! some healthy, sticky beans (at least one each, LOL)!

I'm wearing 2 of the vivelle patches for 3 days, and 2 more after that. I'm not taking the Progesterone until next week, and they're suppositories (yuck!), but anything for that healthy, sticky little bean!

Good thing I'm used to doing the injections by now :

Silly man! At least he's starting to get interested! It does go to show, though, that you just can't predict what's going to happen!

I just realized something, the Ovidrel is IM! Yikes! I'm going to have to hit MUSCLE???? That's nothing like the itty-bitty sub-Q needles I've been using for the Menopur. Yikes! He said to do it at bedtime tonight, so I hope I can get Vivian asleep before midnight(!) tonight - I don't want to have to hide from her as long as it's going to take me to work up to it,

OK, I managed to hit muscle, it wasn't as bad as I thought. The needle was MUCH longer and bigger, but it didn't start hurting until a couple of minutes later. My doc said to do it at bedtime, but Vivian didn't go to sleep until 11:20pm! I guess that makes it bedtime, My DH is out playing games so I've been alone all night and couldn't do it with her running around.

Kara!

I'm glad those follies came out of hiding!
I'm not taking the Progesterone until next week, and they're suppositories (yuck!), but anything for that healthy, sticky little bean!
I hear yeah, I've been on those since Monday night...1 week down, 1 to go for me.

Oh and if you've never taken the ovidrel before I should warn you that it gives you pregnancy side effects (at least it does for me) sore boobs and nausea in the morning.

Good luck and heres hoping March is the month for a lot of on this board!

Tell me about it! Last night my french fries tasted funny, and today I have a bit of a headache (like I did all last pregnancy).

All for the best cause, right? I just feel so blessed that I'm having a 2nd opportunity for such love when I never thought I could even have a 1st.

I guess all the hormones are starting to make me all gushy
