The Goods

I finally got around to taking the obligatory photo of my drugs for this cycle. Here it is:





I also found out yesterday that I will have to go out of town for work for a few days between May 4th and May 7th. It's for a beotch of a project, a repeat from last year. Ugh! And we'll be taking the corporate plane so I can't have E come along and turn it into a mini vaca - bummer. But it's what I had been assuming and is why we pushed our IVF schedule out.


Here's our tentative schedule:
May 5 - last BCP
May 7 - period should start
May 8 - baseline bloodwork and ultrasound, hopefully start HMG shots
May 15 - HCG trigger shot
May 17 - retrieval
May 20 - transfer


So, still two more weeks till things really get started. But I have my first acupuncture session tomorrow. I'm pretty pumped and hope it will make me feel like I'm doing something while we wait. Man, this whole waiting thing is just making me crazy.

  2. Hello! Thanks for the comment on my blog. Good luck with your upcoming cycle. Besides accunpuncture I also do guided imagery and relaxation cds. A lot of progressive muscle relaxation as well.

    Impressive list of real estate!

  8. The waiting drives me crazy, too. I remember being so impatient about everything when I was a kid, and thought that I had matured, but with infertility I'm still as impatient as ever.

    That's a very organized photo! I'm hoping all that stuff does its job well.
