I am, I just took at peek at my blog. None of the ads to the left of my blog seem like reputable IVF clinics, or egg donor registries. Once I am though this cycle I would be more than happy to post information about the clinic I have been using. Until then if youContinue reading “annoyed by the google ads?”

Like I said, oops. I was so exhausted last night after practice that I forgot to take my Lupron injection. I realized that I had forgotten it when I woke up a couple hours ago with a killer headache. I’ve still got the headache. I’m actually writing from bed at the moment. I’m waiting forContinue reading “oops i did it again”

I’m now on day 3 of my hormone infections. I am taking 10 units of Lupron (leuprolide) via an insulin needle. I can receive the shot in my thigh or my lower stomach. I have been using my stomach, I am not sure if I can give myself the shot in the leg. The bellyContinue reading “Hit me with your best shot…”

Oh well, I thought that yesterday’s visit to the fertility clinic would be a little more exciting. I was hoping that the film maker would get to experience a little more of the world of IVF.

Along with the bloat and the headaches I’m likely going to be one miserable bitch. If you ask certain people, they’d say who would notice? Ha ha… I’ve been taking the birthContinue reading “Holy Hormones Batman”

I received my pill pack in the mail today and placed a call to the clinic to find out when I can get this reproductive show on the road. I hope to get my tentative schedule tomorrow. I was pretty excited to find out that I will have a e- medical file that I canContinue reading “Special Delivery”

Aunt Flo is here, this means that it’s time to help make a baby! I called my fertility specialist this morning and I’ve got the go ahead to start my IVF cycle soon. I’m going to be receiving a pack of birth control pills in the mail (shortly). I start out the IVF cycle withContinue reading “Here I go again…..”

So I’ve started my cycle! It began Tuesday of this week. Yippy. I’m not exactly sure if that is normally cause for such celebration, but I want to get this baby making show on the road. I’m excited. Yesterday I called the doctor’s office to let them know that I’m ready and raring to go.Continue reading “Let’s make a baby!”
