Update....

Okay so I haven't been very talkative on here lately because I didn't want to be disappointed again and have to see the pity looks from friends and family when they see me.... I think that all the concern is wonderful and I truly appreciate it but some of the looks I get are saddening.... But I decided that the looks are not that of disappointment or pity, but it's the looks of concern from truly concern people! So I'm back!!!

On Saturday morning we went in for our monthly monitoring @ 7:30... The technician was so cold and anti social, not sure if it was because Michelle came in with me, She look back when I was waiting for Michelle like who is she?!?!? So she starts looking and she's not saying anything (not like the other techs before) and she didn't let me see the screen! So I asked her what she was seeing and she said 1 follicle and then I had to ask her the size and she told me 25. Then she tells me the nurse will call me... So the nurse calls me @ 10:30 and tells me that I only had 1 mature follicle (25mm) for it being CD 8... So the nurse tells me to use the Ovidrel that night and inseminate Sunday and Monday..... So I called the KD and told him and he thought we should inseminate everyday this week... So we have inseminated everyday this week so far.... I was wondering before should I use the CBEFM or the OPK and I decided that I would and for the last 2 days I have gotten a smiley face on the OPK and the CBEFM had shown the "egg" for Sunday and Monday but today went back to the 2nd notch.... So I don't know what I should think of that... I am not stressing over the outcome because like I said before God will make it happen when it's suppose to....

CBEFM

Okay so today is CD 6, and my CBEFM was signaling for me to take a pee sample... I did and of course it didn't show anything, I think the monitor is still getting to know my body... But I got to thinking do I really need to do the OPK or CBEFM this month since we decided to use the Ovidrel (oh yeah I didn't mention that before, huh?). I figured that since we are not using the Menopur we should use the Ovidrel since it triggers ovulation and it would give us a better window of opportunity (meaning giving us a clearer picture of when the egg is released)... Because if calculations are correct I didn't ovulate til CD 16??? I came up with that because of the day my new cycle started.... And remember I said that your cycle starts 14 days after you ovulate.... But I have been thinking that I have a late luteal cycle...

So I go in for monthly monitoring on Saturday morning... I can't wait to see how the medicine is working for me...

No Shot

okay so we talked with our friends and then talk about it some more and we decided not to use the Ovidrel trigger shot... So we're just gonna do our inseminations starting tomorrow and doing every other night this coming week... And we got another tip don't use the spectulum and try using an Instead 12 Hour Feminine Protection Cup 24 ea, so we're gonna try that... But now it's off to sleep to get ready for church..

Monitoring update!

Okay nurse called and my estrogen level is 136 (not sure what's the norm) but with the size follicles I have she wants me to do my trigger shot (Ovidrel) tomorrow night and inseminate Sunday and Monday! I'm just so glad that it's Sunday because my KD is out of town til Sunday evening! And the funny thing is we were emailing this week and I told him that I think we should start inseminating Sunday so we had already planned for Sunday. So, he'll be here straight from this trip and then we'll do it again Monday evening and because I'm such an anal person with this we'll probably do it again Tuesday morning before Michelle goes to work =)))... My KD said that he'll do it everyday if that what we want (he is God sent!)....

So that's it til tomorrow when I take the shot, only thing about that is that after that shot I'm usually so moody! But I'm going pray and believe that I'm not going drive Michelle crazy!!!

Pray for her and me!! =)))
