Lupron Day 14, Estrace Day 6, Hormones Level 10!

Good news is, I haven’t really felt sick. I have a headache at times but I am prone to those anyway. I also do not have face break outs or noticed any weight gain.  What I am is EMOTIONAL! Grief! Last night after my shot I put my face in my hands and wept! My husband thought I must have hurt myself but I think I had flashbacks to my first IVF.  Actually that was my second meltdown yesterday and the first was just driving down the road. So Weird!? I saw this meme this morning and it cracked me up, spot on! I sent this to my sister in law who has a nearly one year old and she said my brother would feel this meme to his core!
As of now everything is still scheduled to do egg retrieval one week from today. Is there a name for feeling scared, anxious, happy, embarrassed, and numb? I feel that!

  • The Day My Baby Was Born

    After I was induced, I had the expectation of a calm, controlled process. Contractions were rough, but once the epidural set in, I settled in. Someone told me to “push with my butt”—sounds weird but it helped! I had several nurses who tried to convince me that I would push a lot better without an…

  • IUI Number 1

    Our first IUI seems like a world ago. On Jan 28 we had one follicle that was around 10″ and one that was 19″.  Our Nurse Practitioner (who we adore) was very surprised that one was so large and felt it could be a cyst. I left that morning convinced the weeks of injections were…
