I’m so over these injections. Knowing that we’re almost done has not made doing them any easier. One more gonal-f tonight and then a novarel tomorrow and then, cross your fingers, I’m done injecting hormones into my body. YAY!
I went in for a follicle count and blood work today. She found 5 follicles, but only one looked like it would be dominant. I’m a little bummed out. We decreased the meds in hopes that 6 follicles would go down to maybe 2 or 3 follicles, but it looks like one it is. My estrogen came back at 374, so we definitely have 1 really solid follicle, maybe even a second by Friday.
Friday is IUI #6/3. It will only be cycle day 11. It’s rather early, but if follicles are ready, then they’re ready, right?
This seems to have gone fast, but the early IUI coupled with the fact that I’ve been done with a horrible cold since this past weekend is probably why. I’ve heard it’s going around and with the huge number of different students I see on a daily basis, it’s not surprising that it got me.
What do I do when I’m sick? Knit socks of course. The socks that I started a couple weeks ago got finished up last night…
You can also catch a glimpse of the new nursery floor and wall color in that picture. I’ve been too sick and/or preoccupied to take good pictures of it so far. I’ll get there eventually. For now, I’d prefer to nap on my couch. 🙂
