Yesterday I went in for my cycle day 11 ultrasound. I was really expecting to hear I was already ready - early, like last cycle. Not so, which is probably for the best, even though Ar and I were pretty psyched for it this weekend.
Anyhow, my lead follicle was 13.5mm. I'll go back for another ultrasound tomorrow - day 13. Hoping, hoping!! I'm thinking that I'll be ready for IUI on Tuesday maybe.
The rest of the weekend was fairly uneventful. I did some nice napping, finished one book and started another, did some errands, baked some bread... Missed church today because I slept til 2 pm = yikes!!
The only real thing of note was that Friday night - and almost tonight - I forgot my shot!! Can you believe that? Friday night I was emailing a fellow IF friend around midnight and it was only when she asked me what time my ultrasound was the next day that I realized I hadn't taken my shot, which I normally do around 8 pm. YIKES!!! Well, no big deal - I took it then and am glad I eventually remembered. Then tonight I'd forgotten until Ar asked me if I took it before he got home... Weird!! I guess I'm a lot less uptight than I was once upon a time with all this, eh? Mostly that's good, I suppose... but, sheesh - remember to take your thousand dollar shots, please!!
It's nice to not be stressed out though, especially since a big part of me does feel (whether true or not) that this is my last chance. Hmm, maybe I'm just in denial.
Love that you are experiencing this process anew--closer to how God intended it to be. More freedom, less worry! Woohooo!
