the rest of this cycle

It has been a while since i have updated on the status of this cycle. After the scare of a stuck ovary and the mini lecture by LA, i realised that a gynae is still the best person to analyse the situation.

made an ppt to see PT at TMC and got scanned, yes the ovary is behind the womb but it's not stuck and it's un likely to be stuck cause of no previous history of addominal surgery. a huge phew. a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. remind me to get a christmas hamper for LA!

follicles at 18mm and not ready to do IUI yet, will re schedule another scan on Monday at CARE.

on Mon, PT deems ready to go with the IUI the next day, i didn;t ask about the follicles size, figured whether i knew or not doesn't make any difference. anyways got the HCG jab done by eileen, ouch it's as painful as the last time.

i got back to work, but didn;t feel so good, took half a day off and went home to rest.

the next day is the big day. went to CARE in the morning at 830am with hubby to provide the sample, paid the bill of 500 plus and had a couple of hours to while away. we had breakfast at delifrance, then went down to sph to collect the free fryer....and it took us all of half an hour. at 9am, we still have 2 hrs to spare.

in the end we went down to borders and spent the next hour or so browsing, i ended up buying 2 books, a novel by robin cook and guess what a infertlity book, the latest one to print. a flip thru it is pretty informative, will update more later. during this time, another friend sms me saying she's going for IUI the next day. good for her.

we still got half an hr to go, so we decide to head back to paragon, went to metro and decided to look at shoes, well i didn't get any shoes but i got a blouse from dorothy perkins. :P shopoholic u may say but hey retail therapy always worked.

finally 1130am, got the sample and headed straight to TMC. we waited about 10 min before i was told to prepare for the procedure. like the last time,n it was done in a separate room. i was all prepped and ready when PT came in. the procedure itself was pretty fast with the usual equipment not staying where it should stay. the doc commented that i had a lot of CM which i suppose is good rather than bad.

anyways after the procedure, hubby came in and we rested for 20 min. settled the bill of 257 and took the medicine before going home. now is the start of the 2ww.

the 2ww is the worst part of the whole cycle. it's a waiting game from now onwards.
