The Eagle(s) Have Landed

All 65 million of them! 

This morning's iui went very smoothly with no hiccups.  As always, I worry that I O'd too soon but there's nothing I can do about that now.  Dr. C said she was very pleased with how my body reacted to Lupro.n so hopefully at least one of the five to six eggs will be both mature and healthy.  Is that too much to (effing) ask?

This time around I lounged about afterwards on the lovely yet uncomfortable table and watched a little of "The Wire" on my iPad and thought good thoughts.  I really appreciate all of the kind thoughts and words that have been coming my way.  I have attributed the calmness I feel this cycle to this support.  With all of my previous cycles I was on my own.  A couple of friends knew what I was doing but no one really knew what I was going through. It truly does make all the difference.

    "Is that too much to (effing) ask?" - pfft...kids are always disobeying their mothers...you tell those eggies and spermies if they know what's good for them,they'll cooperate or you'll turn your uterus around and go home.

    At least that's what I would say :)

    Best of Luck! I always think I ovulate too soon. Each time I'm convinced of it. This time I even triggered later than I was suppose to because I was convinced I would do it again. Hope you see two lines in two weeks.

    Go go swimmers. Hoping they'll knock on the egg and go on in. Can't wait to hear about your BFP.

    Found you through ICLW.

    I'm so sorry this has been such a rough journey for you. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this time around works and your 2WW feels like a short one!

    I hope the next couple weeks pass relatively quickly. I'm also glad you've been able to find support online. People are such a-holes about fertility treatment in general, I can only imagine they're giant flaming a-holes about a single woman undergoing fertility treatment.
