300 units of Follistim: (Makes me produce a bunch of eggs, much like a sea turtle, as Chad has so romantically suggested.)
Followed by 250 mcg of Ganirelix. (Makes it so I don't ovulate.)
The shots don't hurt (I actually don't feel them at all because I am a nurse and I am AWESOME) but sometimes the drugs will sting after they are injected. I've had a day or two of massive cramps, but other than that....not much. I am feeling fatter than I did before the injections started, but this could be attributed to the excess girl scout cookies around here. Which are no longer in excess because they keep forcing themselves down my throat.
We go for an ultrasound tomorrow, to see what my ovaries are doing and do a follicle count, and then Chad gets his little swimmers chopped out on Monday. Should have an egg retrieval early next week if all goes well and then I could possibly be knocked up by the end of next week.
AND the pool dudes are supposed to show up and dig a big hole in the backyard today FINALLY.
Busy busy.
