Doug and I went in for our first ultrasound today to see where we are at with the growth of new follicles. In other words to see where my eggs were at in their stage of growth and how close we are to ovulating on our new Drug.
This past week was very interesting. From Weds-Sun I was taking the new fertility drug Femara. I was nervous on the side effects I would be experiencing on them. I did however experience some side effects. For the past 7 days I have had some very restless nights..insomnia if you will..tossing all night..waking up all night long and very odd dreams. I also had the joy of experiencing very odd sharp stomach pain...joint aches and very sharp headaches. I am glad needless to say those are the only ones I had to endure. I do however prefer it over the other one I was on..and I believe so does my husband. He does not miss the hot flashes (nor do I)..and the very large amounts of mood swings.
I was kinda hoping that the appointment would happen tomorrow for the IUI..but things do not seem to go the way they wish they would. Which I mean is a good thing also..I forgot to bring my injection with me. So we go back on this Thursday for another ultrasound. The doctor is hoping that things are ready then..so we can do the IUI on Friday...if not we may have to do a special IUI on the weekend with the doctor. This could mean rearranging work...or hopefully getting it done on Friday or early Sat morning. All in all..no worries..what will be will be.
Sometimes things just need a little more time to grow and be nourished and develop into something special..like new spring flowers...or possibly a new growth to become a baby!!
