Another monthly race begins. I went this morning for my ultrasound to check on the follicles. Right now I have five developing, with two dominant on my left side. The two dominant ones are about 22 and 20, so the nurse said that the doctor would look the results over to make the determination as to when I should trigger. She didn’t check my stripe though, which I was a little puzzled by. I asked her if she thought they would want to check it later, since it was so thin the last two months and she said she would ask the doctor.
She called back at 4:00pm and said that the RE gave me the go ahead to trigger tonight between 9:00pm and 11:00pm; the IUI is scheduled for 9:30am on Saturday morning. I’m a little nervous about doing the trigger and not having the IUI until 33 hours later, but since this is the first time I’m triggering, I’m not sure what to expect. In the hustle of trying to find a private space at work to take the phone call, I forgot to ask about the stripe and the E2 levels (which they drew this morning), so I had to call back and leave another message about that. So now the shot is scheduled. I’m a little nervous about giving myself a shot but I have to look on the bright side that it’s a subcutaneous shot and not intramuscular. People tell me the sub-Q shots are a piece of cake. I guess I’ll be able to tell you after 11:00pm tonight!
I was a good little industrious gal last night and got a decent amount of homework done. R is home tonight, which probably means that I won’t get a lick done tonight. Oh well. Six days left of all of this.
