Next to the last appointment for this cycle!!!
I went to the doctor today holding my breath and hoping that it would be time for that hcg shot. It may be painful but I am soooo ready. I am feeling so tired these days, it just seems like after work I just want to go to bed. Yesterday I woke up and my lower abdomen was so achy, it didn't really hurt it just bothered me. Today I lost most of my tolerant attitude and probably would have balled like a little baby if they had told me the follicles were not ready yet. -My nurse even said that I looked a little worn out and tired, like i might break down- They did the ultra sound and I had more than 4 mature follicles (eggs). Normally if someone had more than four follicles they would cancel the insemination. Because of my endemetriosis and Jeremys sperm issues they really didn't think it would be a problem. They left the decision up to us though since multiple birth pregnancies present a risk to both mother and babies. I told the nurse that the doctor had counseled us and told us basically that it would be a miracle if this insemination thing worked so I wasn't too worried about getting pregnant with 3 or 4 babies at one time. (I'm just praying and hoping for at least one!!!) Tomorrow night my mother-in-law will give me the hcg shot. Thursday is "The Day". I'm excited, and I just hope against hope that maybe we will get a baby out of this. I'll write again tomorrow night after my harrowing experience with the big needle.

Hey,
Thanks for the invite. It will make it easier to keep up without keeping you on the phone all the time. You know I am praying for you and hope everything will go good. As excited as I am for you, I can't imagine what you will be like when you finally get to hear the words, "You're Pregnant!" I will talk to you soon.
Love You,
Shelly
