I'm back and I feel liberated!!

So, my last apology for being a bad blogger. I haven't felt free on my blog for the last couple of months. I had shared my blog with some close friends and family when we were going through IVF with the hopes that it would work and then this could turn into a pregnancy blog. Well, we all know how that turned out. I have left limited with what I could post since then because I knew some of them were reading it. While I share a lot of what we are going through with my close friends and fam I want to share it when I am ready to and not via my blog. I missed the anonymity of my blog so I decided to change my URL and now they don't have it :)

I apologize if you have trouble finding me for a while but I am liberated!! I can say what I want and share what I want with who I want when I want :) If you are a follower of my blog then it will just be there in the blogs you follow. I've also sent emails out to my online friends from various message boards about the URL change.

Now for some updates :)

D-IUI is on!!!

I got my period on the afternoon of Friday, 10/30 and nurse counts Saturday as cd1 and I went for cd3 b/w u/s on Monday 11/2. I'm saying it was cd3.5.

It was the strangest waiting room experience I have ever had. Everyone was talking! the receptionist and patients were all TALKING to each other!!! I was in shock. At Cor.nell no one talked! It was odd for especially b/c they were talking about kids and halloween and I don't have any kids and I think the one other couple in the room didn't either since they were not talking like me. I just felt really strange. I've never had a conversation with anyone in a RE's waiting room before.

Anyway, u/s was good (I hate day 3 vaj cam visits, it is so messy). I have lots of follies on both ovaries and my largest is 7mm. I really like that I get to see my RE each time I go.

I went back for cd 10.5 b/w u/s on Monday and it went well. And I have a 15mm follie on my right ovary (go righty!). RE said everything is progressing nicely. I am doing a natural cycle IUI. I go back tomorrow for hopefully my last follie check.

We're both really excited to be moving forward but I am feeling a lot of pressure b/c it's all me, does that make sense? I'm getting so anxious for my appts. and have lots of stupid physical symptoms b/c of it. On Monday I had a non-stop eye-twitch, felt like puking and gave myself a pain in the neck. Need to keep saying serenity prayer :)

Praying this cycle works! Thanks for all the support.

and GO RIGHTY!!!

Thanks for the new address! I know how you feel, I'm in the process of swithcing my blog too, for the same exact reason. I shared with everyone thinking that this IVF would work, and it didn't, and now I'm back to square one!
