Hello again! I had my 3rd appointment Saturday to see how my ovaries responded to the Clomiphene, and it went well! My sweet husband decided to take the day off to go with me :) It made me feel good that he wanted to participate and see the progress I had made.
The ultrasound showed that my right ovary had a 20 (mm?) dominant follicle...perfect! I have other follicles that aren't quite so large so I am assuming the dominant one could be my future baby! It's so nice to say that. Anyway, the doctor said 'good job' and gave me the HCG shot to take home. In case you don't know or I didn't mention, the shot releases the matured follicle(s) so it can begin the journey up through the tube(s)! Well, I gave that task to my husband because there is no way I was giving myself a shot in the butt! It had to be done 36 hours before the IUI, which is on Monday! Yes Monday meaning tomorrow! He goes in a couple hours before me so they can wash the sperm. I decided to take the day off for a few different reasons but mostly because it's my first time so I don't know what to expect. I am guessing they will have me wait 2 weeks before taking a pregnancy test. Maybe I am jumping ahead of myself a little bit...lol.
I will check in after the IUI and then probably take a break from my blog for a few weeks to rest and have a tiny bit of privacy.
Till next time!

P.S. I've recently become a renewed fan of Jordan Knight (from New Kids on the Block)! Um can we say delicious and what a voice (sigh)! I recommend his new album 'Unfinshed' that was released this past spring. You won't be sorry!
