CD16 Sat & jab

was very anxious, so much so that i couldn;t sleep well for the past 4 days, been waking up at all times.

it's hard not to worry, though the circumstances is beyond our control. tahnkfully, i met a group of gals online who are facing thru the same problems and they offer great support thru out this trying time.

organsing a gathering online for a grp of 15 persons who mostly have not met each other before takes a lot of worry off my mind about TTC. (btw the gathering was this afternoon and 4pm, and it went off swell {if i may say so})

so eh back to the gynae visit, we were there very early, at 9am although we had a 9.30am appt and had to wait for a couple of patients before being seen.

Dr Fy didn;t say much till after the scan. he said there was a follicle that is big enough at 20mm which can mature. and then he became a lot more approachable as he talked what to do next.

next step
i'm supposed to get a hcg jab to encourage the egg to release from the follicle. and there's specific timing to follow which is between 9 to 9.30pm tonight. The jab can be done at any GP since FY clinic is close and most GP are not open at 9 plus, we decided to go to a 24 hr clinic instead.

my next qn was, will the jab be painful? Dr FY said no, it will not be as the jab is supposed to be on the butt which is fleshy, to which i joked that i'm fleshy all around. which kinda lightened up the mood.

so the plan is that i get a jab on sat nite, and the egg will be released on Mon. Hubby has to produce a sample on Mon Am at CARE, and then bring the sample to TB, where Fy is at on Mondays and he will perform the IUI procedure.

we got the stuff we needed from the recept and off we go. did i mentioned that we got a gathering at 4pm this afternoon?...that really took our minds off the jab that evening.

evening time came round, we went to the 24 hr clinic at yishun. Dr FY said it wouldn;t hurt rite? in a pig's eye, that jab is bloody painful. and it took a bloody long time to administer as well. It cost 36 bucks for the GP's service as well.
