Today I went back to the doctor to check hormone levels and follicle growth. I had 13 large follicles (goal was 12) and several smaller follicles. They told me I was all set for what looks to be a sucessful invitro cycle. I was able to stop my stimulating injections, and at 10:15pm (on the dot) I gave myself my HCG shot. This shot will stimulate ovulation to occur for the egg retrival wednesday at 10:15 am.
I kept myself very busy today in order to make the time go by faster. I was busy with work and then getting up to speed on my new teaching job. I was off to the doctor this morning by 7:45 am and I didn't get home until 6pm. The day flew by. I am trying to figure out how to do this again tomorrow. That way it will be Wednesday before I know it. It seems like we have been waiting forever. It was a long weekend. I am bruised from all the shots and seriously bloated! Today they measured my ovaries at 6cm, which explains why I am feeling so large. Some how running around the city in a business suit just doesn't seem to fit my expanding waistline, but sitting at home relaxing on the couch makes the time go by painfully slow.
Needless to say, we are so ready for Wednesday morning!

YAY!!! I've been praying for so long that God would bless you and Jason with a baby! I'm also very excited for Wednesday now. I can't wait to spoil a little niece, or nephew, or maybe both! Good luck on Wednesday, I'll be praying. I love you two!
