Here we are almost 9 months from the day we started our
first cycle – and I am on day 2 of my cycle and we are starting again almost
the same way we started last time. This morning I went in for blood work and my
first ultrasound, and they found that one of the follicles on my ovaries is
large. Which means it might be producing
hormones. They will test it, and if the
hormone levels are below a 50, then we can proceed. My nurse said that since the same thing
happened last time, it’s likely my hormone levels are just fine. But we will see. She said she would call me
by 4 pm today.
I got my box-o-drugs yesterday and another box today with
the shortest shelf-life drug (14 days). Hopefully, we won’t need it that long.
The nurse gave me the special needles I use, and a calendar for what my cycle
should look like. It’s much shorter than last time, but probably because we
actually know where to start in terms of hormones.
I’m really excited to be doing this again – excited at the
prospect of what could potentially happen. But, I’m also terrified because of
the results from last time. Luckily, I’m
working with my therapist still and she is wonderfully helpful. We are working
on being positive and optimistic while preparing for a less than ideal
result. Keep your fingers crossed!!!!
