Busy, busy day. I'm gonna have to post about it in two parts.
First things first. Trekked up to Dartmouth and while driving followed these instructions. "Drink 32oz of any fluid one hour prior to your appointment." I had a harder time with this one. "Do not void before appointment." Void meaning piss like a racehorse. The snow slowed me down and by the time I got into the room I was dying. Then they made me change. In the bathroom. That really killed me.
The mock transfer went fine and they discovered a little "s" curve in my cervix. So they'll be ready for that when we go for the real thing. They let me pee after that. Whew! Then I had the sonohistogram (SHG) and my uterus was just peachy. For good measure they decided to take a look at the ovaries too. So weird looking at those potential eggs hanging out and waiting to roll down the chute.
After I got dressed I took my chart up and met with our IVF coordinator. She was able to take a look at the calendar and sketch out an approximate time for the meds and the procedures. Hopefully we'll be able to take our first shot in May. I am so excited to have atleast an idea of when everything is going to happen. And even though I am trying to be cautious, I can't help but think that our child would be born in Feb. of next year. I get teary-eyed at the very idea.

I'm so glad to hear things went well today!
where does the saying "piss like a racehorse" come from? i have heard that the track horses are kept from peeing to make them run faster. i wonder if this is true.
LOL! I don't know but it sure made me move fast!
I can just imagine how excited you must be, congrats at being so much closer to a baby!
:)
just grinning at you.
