...The Shot Queen! (Note of clarification: I've been called the "Shot Nazi" before, but this time we're not talking about the Lemon Drop type of shots)
Kase and I have these injectables down to a science! We gather our supplies. Take everything to the bathroom and shut the door (We just can't bear the thought of Kitty walking in on us--might be a bit traumatic for her). We sanitize everything with alcohol. Pop the caps. Load the syringe with 1mL of saline. Mix the vials one at a time. And ZAP!
As masochistic as this may seem, we get a bit giddy with it! Not because we're injecting me in the stomach with hormones, but I think it's the idea that we're actually DOING something that might make us a baby soon!!!
Yes, my mood is much lighter today--in spite of it being a chaotic Monday!
I had to be at the hospital by 7 to get my blood drawn. Then I had to make it to my OB appointment by 8. After that, I rushed to school in time to relieve my half-day sub. I spent a couple of hours with my kids and then ended my day with a looooong meeting. After cleaning up and prepping for tomorrow, I rushed home so I could call the voicemail and get my new instructions. Doc upped my dosage a half vial (??) for the next 4 nights and then I have another blood test and sonogram on Friday. So, looks like we'll continue on and hopefully get some good news by Friday. Doc says if my follicles look ready, we should be able to make an insemination date soon after! Cross your fingers!!!
