Tonight I feel like we have officially "begun" our journey. I started the injectables & it was a lot less stressful and painful than I thought it would be! Today I think I watched the "how to" video for the shot maybe 15 times. I then made Dion watch it and he wasn't thrilled and didn't think he needed a lesson on it.
My mom told me she's been thinking about me all week because she remembers when I was little I would scream and hide from the doctor if I knew a shot was coming. She was worried I still hated shots. (so sweet) I mean no one loves shots, but if these shots bring us a little miracle, I can sacrifice.
So, what's next? I do injectables every night until Monday, when I go in for more monitoring and blood work to see if my body is reacting the way it should be. Then I'll take shots for probably another 7-10 days. THEN, hopefully, the first procedure happens- egg retrieval.
But for now, we're just praying the my body is reacting to these shots the way it should. My prayers are small these days, I'm trying to take it day by day. I mean, we all know what we want the big outcome to be, and which I still pray for. But today I am just praying the shot I took does exactly what it is supposed to be doing. :)
