I use to be bothered by pregnancy announcements, gender reveals, new borns. But now its just seeing people interact with their kids.

Should have been seeing an 8 week bean shape on the ultrasound machine. Instead there was a yolk sac and no fetus with a heartbeat to be found.

Day 9 - pulled the trigger!

Egg retrieval Monday!

I missed day 5 update. I don't really remember yesterday already but I know i was super lazy when I got home.

Today was day 6. Started a new injection I was literally terrified for, and it wasn't that bad. Had my second scan, looks like I should have my egg retrieval next week. I have a feeling I will probably end up with OHSS and not be able tondo a fresh transfer, so that scares me.

Oh today was also my first day of doing injections at work.

Day 4 -

Today was my first ultrasound / blood work appointment.

Follicles seem to be growing, they changed the dosage of my Gonal F to less. I start Ganirelix on Wednesday for AM injection.

Left side definitely hurts more than the right when I inject and bruises pretty bad.

Wednesday I go back for my next scan to see what I do next!

Day 3

So much easier, not really scared anymore. I recorded but too long to post. Menopur burned a little more today. I just want to be at home and sitting on the couch to nap all day. Follicle Scan is tomorrow !

Stims day 2 was interesting.

I did my injections on a boat. Don't recommend doing it that way.

Definitely much easier than the first day. I didn't have an issue with poking myself this time.

I'm kind of excited for tonight! Tomorrow is my first ultrasound and bloodwork appointment to see how my follicles are growing! Fingers crossed for something good.

Day 1 of STIMs

All day I was fine. I was SO sure I'd be able to get home and do it alone but I'm thankful I went to Shannon's because I almost chickened out! I was shaking I was so nervous and worried about messing up. Turns out there was 1 little mistake, didn't inject all the medicine in one injection so had to poke myself again to get the rest out.

Thankfully wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be. But still not wanting to do this everyday.

Cause long neck ice cold beer never broke my heart

Like diamond rings and football teams have torn this boy apart

Like a neon dream, it just dawned on me, that bars and this guitar
