I'm a dirty girl...

Well at least I felt that way....

So I had to give myself the trigger today.  Seems like not such a big deal since I have been giving myself my gonal-f injects for the past 6 days....buttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt it was. 

First off...I give myself my gonal-f injects through a pen so it is super easy.  I also do it in the privacy of my own home.

Today, my trigger HAD to be done at work, but to make matters worse I had to cross cover today and not work at my normal job.  I found time to sneak away with my "bag" and use the bathroom.  A busy bathroom.  A bathroom with 2 stalls and a line.  A dirty bathroom.

Anyway, there I was...sitting on the toilet, trying to spread out my drugs and needles, while reading the instructions and people jiggling to door to "see if anyone was in there".  To make a long story shorter, it was rushed and panic-like.  Then, after it was over I had to carry out my dirty used needles in my bag.  I felt like I had just done something so bad in a public bathroom at work and needed to find a sharps container immediately!

I've been badddddddddddd......so bad!

So a bunch of stuff has happened...

OK...

1.  I went to a "class" to learn about injectables
2.  I started acupunture 2 days ago
3.  IUI #3 was a FAIL

The injectable class was....crazy.  We learned about the history of injectables and their relationship to nun's urine.  Also, learned that it is illegal in Europe due to the high risk of multiples and a bunch of other really scary crap including how "selective pregnancy reduction" works.



So, the acupuncture was cool, I guess.  We went over my history and why I was there and then I had my "treatment".  It was painless, but it felt weird just to lay on my back for 40 minutes.  I am a stomach sleeper, so laying on my back on a table in a strange place wasn't entirely relaxing.  Hopefully it will get better.  I go back Tuesday.



AF showed today.  I knew I wasn't pregnant after I got a BFN @ 11dpiui, 13dpiui and 15dpiui.  Finally today @16dpiui, she showed.  It's like...once you know you aren't pregnant it is annoying to sit and wait for AF to show up.  She can be such a jokester sometimes!



I will call my RE tomorrow to schedule my u/s and to order my injects for this cycle.  CYCLE 29.  Am I feeling lucky?????

IUI #3 is done

But will it work?  That is the question.

I had 3 follicles at my u/s yesterday and DH's numbers were thankfully higher this time around (12.2 million vs. 3 million last time)

Now the slow tick of the 2ww begins...
