Ultrasound and Lupron

So my husband and I went to the RE today. We were scheduled to have an ultra sound so we could check for cysts. We went to the doctors office and I was so nervous! I get nervous before every appointment because every one could be a delay. Well, we were escorted into a room by a wonderful nurse and she explained the procedure. Then our RE came in. He wanted to measure my uterus. He inserted some sort of awful tongs that spread me open wide. Not comfortable at all! Then he measured my uterus; it was 6.2. When he tells me something like that I never know what that means so I nervously ask, "Is that good or normal?" He kindly smiles and says it is normal. Thank you God! Then he says, "You are going to feel a pinch." Ouch! A pinch my @$$! It hurt! Then he stood up and displayed a long tube that gradually got skinnier. This was the tube they would use to insert my eggies. He said this was a test to see how difficult or easy the transfer would be. He said I would be an "easy" transfer! Thank you God again!

Well, the results of the test? Clear, no cysts! We saw lots of black dots that will soon be follicles with my eggs. Thank you God again!!!

After all the tests were good to go, our nurse returned and took us to a conference room. There she explained how to inject the Lupron. I can choose my stomach, arm, or legs. She explained we had to take a shot before returning to work. So my husband and I drove back home and he gave me my first shot of Lupron! Strangely, I was so excited because it was officially the start of my journey to my BFP!!

All in all, it was a great day!
