Today I received a box of torture. My medications... I don't know if people know this about me, but I hate getting shots and I am a nurse. In fact I don't do flu shots & I am over due for my tetanus. I think the Lord is getting back at me or playing a cruel joke. Also, if I get pregnant, my children better appreciate what I went through, because if not, I may have to give them 3 shots a day for 2 weeks in the stomach & then 1 shot a day for 7 wks in the butt. Yes, I said butt while blogging. So this is going to be my life for the next 2-3 weeks. Starting the 15th I start one injection a day for 5 days & then after that I do 3 injections for 2 wks. At day 1 I have an ultrasound to make sure my ovaries are behaving & didn't produce any cyst & if everything looks fabulous then I continue. So then at day 8 & 10 I will have another ultrasound & blood work to make sure my ovaries are happy & producing lovely cyst full of a fabulous eggs getting excited to come out. After that my doctor will determine when they are perfect enough & when they are, I will give my self a shot in my bottom or a friend from work (lucky them) will do the injection. Once the injection is given we have to be in Soldatno 36 hours later for egg retrieval & then growing the embryos. After that, we wait for 3-5 days for implantation. Then of course the waiting game to see if it took... But that is going to be our life the next couple of weeks. I pray that Brad will survive my hormonal change & crankiness. Which it can be easy. So if Brad calls you to move in, please remind him it is temporary. Well lets HOPE!!!
