Another Quick Update

I am sorry to admit that I have to give another quick update because my computer is screwie right now. So please forgive the fact that I haven't stopped by your blog lately. I will be there soon!

We went to the doctor yesterday for an ultrasound to see if my cysts on my overies went down on their own and my left side is totally clear and ready to go and there is ONE HUGE one on my right side that hasn't gone down at all. Well the good news is that I only have one. I had 6 to begin with. The bad news is that this cycle has been cancelled because of that one cysts. Supposedly it can release hormones and cause my cycle to be loopy when they are giving me hormones telling it to do something else, does that make sense? So all we can do this cycle is what we have been for that past 21 cycles.. that, did i mention, HASN'T BEEN WORKING!!! Ughh I am frustrated but what can you do. So we have to go back on cycle day two of next cycle and get another ultrasound to see if we are set to go with that cycle.

Thanks for all the un-ending support from all of you. All of the prayers, thoughts, and well wishes have been great! Thank you again!

Personal Info You Probably Didn't Want To Know

If you don't want to ready about my journey trying to get pragnant.. then you probably shouldn't read any further... there is some REALLY personal info about me that you probably didn't want to know but this is my blog and I am sharing it anyways. :P 

Saturday Jeff and I called the dr because I still haven't ovulated (O'd) yet and she told us to go ahead and schedule an appointment for an u/s (ultrasound) to see if I have O'd or not. We went in on Sunday. Well the good news is that I haden't O'd yet so we can still proceed with the IUI, and I guess the better news is.. i have really mature follicles. Although I am not sure if they are on track or not. She said that they were rather BIG so she wasn't sure if they were follicles, she thought that they might be cysts, but the dr confirmed that they were, indeed follicles and that we could proceede with the IUI. Sorry for my spelling. The normal width of a mature follicle for being on CD 16, which is what I was on Sunday... is 18mm well mine were averaging 33mm!!!!!! YES.. I SAID 33mm!!!!! The nurse said that they were quite large and maybe that is why I haven't O'd yet because I needed that extra boost of HCG, my body is having a hard enough time as it is. So I got my HCG shot, on Sunday (in the rear I must add) and we went back in on Monday at 1:00pm for our IUI. Well Jeff went in at 1:00pm then I went in at 3:00pm. So wish us luck that all goes well and this is all the help we need.

The IUI went great. I had 6 mature follicles all ranging from 27mm and 33 mm and they injected 5 million of Jeff's sperm. Then I had to lay there for 25 minutes, before they would let me get up to leave. It wasn't that bad though. But they did MAKE sure to tell me that since I had 6 LARGE mature follicles and they did give me a shot of HCG, there is a higher risk of multiples, which I am totally fine with. Oh and she also came back in to mention to me that I do have a yeast infection, so I need to get that taken care of. I haven't had any itching or burning, just some weird cervical mucus and I only noticed it when I was in the dr's office pee'ing before my appointment, so I baught some yogurt and will take care of that tomorrow.

Jeff is already acting like I am pregnant, LOL! He doesn't want me doing anything!!!! He keeps telling me, "let me do that... you just go rest, you've got babies to make." It's too funny!
