My baseline appointment was this morning, it went well. It's funny how easily you slip back into the routine; check in, get blood drawn, get naked from the waist down and wait for the dr to scrutinize your bits and pieces.
I had forgotten also that I had named my ovaries a long time ago but it all came flooding back to me, lying on that table with my bum hanging out in the breeze. Bert is the left one, and Ernie is the right one. Yes, I'm aware that's not normal but if you've known me for any length of time then you'll know that it's not unusual!
Ernie and Bert are both doing wonderful things already, 6 follies on each side and we're only on day 3! Apparently I have ' a beautiful uterus' also.
Injections are different this time. The Gonal pen is almost fun to use, and a lot less cafuffle than the old- mix the vial of water with the vial of powder, shake and then draw up, change needles then inject- method. This is just - attach needle, dial dose, inject- I LOVE it! It does still sting a little but I think I hit a stretch mark so that didn't help!
Not much else to report, V is having the usual 16 mth teething, tantrums and squealing sessions and M actually asked last night if we're sure we're doing the right thing, trying for another. I told him that yes, of course we're doing the right thing. It will all be over in a couple of years!
Ok, off to bed. I have no idea what time or how many times V will have me up during the night so I try to start early!
