YAY!!

Ok, I told Paul that I don't want to tell anybody about what's going on this month in terms of fertility, however I don't think I can stop what I've already started here. I feel that the few people that know about this blog can keep it to themselves. Besides, if this does work, I'll probably end up having to ask some of the neighbors to help with injections when Paul travels. What's going to be hard is keeping the info from my sister in law and her hubby as they are living with us currently. I just don't want family prying and getting their hopes up. I don't want random friends to know and ask about how things went if nothing comes of this.

So, I had the ultrasound yesterday. They said I had six follicles on my ovaries, one of which was massive and ready to release an egg, I just wasn't having my LH surge. So they gave me an Rx for something called Ovidrel, an injection that would trigger ovulation in a set period of time. I had to take it at 9PM. I tried SO hard to give it to myself...but I just stood there in the bathroom unable to make myself do it. I had to call Paul (who was high on pain killers after his root canal) down from the TV room and have him do it. Besides, he needs to participate as much as possible. He's going to be giving me his own "personal injections" over the next few days anyway, he may as well give me the Ovidrel while he's at it! We have our appointment for IUI on Saturday morning. Everybody send prayers, happy thoughts, good vibrations...whatever you believe. I have a good feeling about this time.
