Morning.
This whole "try not to get excited thing" is not working for me.
I had my trigger shot yesterday afternoon. I hardly even felt it so that was a bonus. Of course later last night and this morning, I have a pretty tender hienie. The injection site is definitely a little sensitive this morning. And in true CourtneyAnna fashion, I bumped it into the doorknob of my bathroom door this morning... at 5am. OUCH.
Tomorrow is the big insemination day. I am excited, anxious, and quite honestly, a little scared. After tomorrow, non of these procedures will be covered (see my rant port about Mr. Pawlenty.) I mean, I am totally willing to pay for the IUI but something just feels right about this time. I can't really place my finger on it. Robert and I had a long talk last night and he is a little nervous about his morning date with a cup. :-)
And it just stinks because everything is on such a time schedule: Fill the cup at 7:30, be to the lab by 8:00, wait an hour, pick it up at 9, keep it warm in my hand, walk it over to Dr. S. and then voila!
I talked the tech when I went in for my trigger shot and she said 2 follicles are definitely better than 1. So I guess that is a the upside! I am have been praying constantly and thinking good thoughts. And, a saying that has kept me going this week: "We want sticky babies!" Thanks for the pep talks B!
After the insemination, I will have to wait a week, and then go in for blood tests. If the blood tests are where they are supposed to be, I will go in a week after that for a pregnancy test. All this hurry up and wait business! UGH!
I supposed I better open up the office now! Keep the prayers coming!

I'm rooting for you and saying lots of prayers! Good luck!
