RE Appointment

Had my RE appt today. I took the whole day off, and slept in until 12:30pm- it was glorious! After dragging myself out of bed and getting ready, I headed to my appt. For some sick and twisted reason the IF clinic is right next to the OB ultrasound rooms, so as I'm sitting there waiting to talk about my m/c and IF issues I get to hear the unmistakable "whoosh whoosh" sounds of baby heartbeats. Isn't that great! What idiot designed that set-up?!? I won't lie, I teared up. I couldn't help it. 

After about 20 minutes of waiting I was called in for BP and weight checks, then I got to wait another 10 minutes for the doctor, Dr. H, who came across very clinical, but also nice. She reviewed my history, which I expected, then had me undress for an u/s (my 5th internal u/s in the last 10 months, guess I should get used to these)-- that I was not expecting! Dr. H, the Attending and two nurses were there for the u/s, gotta love an audience. Everything looked fine, normal or some such. 

The Attending, Dr. C, ordered an HSG to make sure everything is clear before moving onto IUI with the frozen vials, which is what he wants to do next. They also really want to see J considering how bleak his SA looks, but I don't think that will happen since we're moving a few weeks after he gets home. Which also makes me wonder if there will even be time for an IUI. I'm suppose to have the HSG at the beginning of my next cycle, which is like May 20th, then I have to meet with Dr.H/Dr.C again, then schedule with the outside IF clinic where the vials are stored, etc, etc. I'm thinking July at the earliest and we're suppose to be moving at the end of July. 

Guess we'll just have to wait and see...

CD 38

and still no AF... Seriously? What the f^#k is up with my body? I'd be excited if there was some actual possibility of being PG, but with J on the other side of the world that would be quite the immaculate conception. CD 38, is this a joke?!?

So-busy-so-tired...

Remember how I said I've taken on an extra job at school to keep busy? Well, I'm beginning to wonder what I have gotten myself into... I am so overworked, over-stressed and overtired! I will be much happier when the next few weeks are over...

Spring Fever

I have Spring Fever- BAD. I just got back from GA, where I was looking at a rental and getting the lay of the land. We are suppose to be moving there, though that could change, but that is a totally different post. Anyhoo, the weather was warm, the sun was out, it was great! Plus, today was one of the nicest days we've had in the Pac NW this year, and the rest of the week is suppose to be just as lovely. Unfortunately, it is back to school tomorrow after a nice long week off. On top of that, we are nearly into the last quarter of the year. We are in the home stretch, and it is hard to stay focused. The school year is wrapping up soon, Spring has sprung (hopefully!!!) and we are moving in a few months. I have the fever and am anxiously awaiting summer vacation ;o)
