Delayed report, takes a while to catch up after missing 3 days!
Friday morning I had an ultrasound, part of the prep work for my next IVF cycle. Was it ever nice to see a 'normal' uterus and ovaries. This was the first scan I've had since having my last tube removed. No huge cysts, no scar tissue (fingers remaining crossed) ovaries where they should be, uterus un-squished.
The interesting and frustrating bit came when she scanned my ovaries - tonnes of follicles! I counted 4 big ones, and the tech even commented on them. Interesting because I'm not on any FSH, frustrating because a) they aren't doing me any good and b) I want to be doing my cycle now and not wait until October.
The other pleasant part of the visit was absolutely no waiting time! I walked to reception, they told me to have a seat, butt touched chair and they were calling my name. I was in and out of the hospital in under 1/2 hour. That's gotta be a record.
Next up, the blood-sugar tests. I just have to find 2.5 hours during work hours to take that sucker.
EDIT: HAHA! I just realized my 'music' selection was ticking clocks - how appropriate!
I will continue to keep sending good vibes your way Hon.
It helps to have a hubby if you want a baby, and I can't even get a date for Saturday night.
There are soo many days when I feel that way. I often wonder why I'm spending all this money and time and putting myself through this (hmm - not having one of my most positive days)
This is our last kick at this can, we will probably look more seriously at adoption if this doesn't work for us. I appreciate your good thoughts - I'm sending back some awesome guy and hottie too attraction thoughts.
They got them when the boys were all babies, and now they're grown men.
I've thought about adoption too, but I just don't have the energy or strength to do it alone. I want a husband before I have a child.
