Day 4 Complete

I can't believe how quickly this is going.  We are excited, but I'm a little scared at the same time.  The first time we did IVF, I was confident about the whole thing.  I am confident it will work again.  I'm just afraid of the same thing happening.  If I respond normally to the stims, my egg retrieval and fertilization will be January 11th.  I miscarried January 10th last year.  One year, one day.  It's funny how things work out sometimes.

I forgot how much the medicine stings when you're injecting it.  It also depends on where I stick myself.

I can feel the follicles growing.  I feel it more this time around.  Either that, or I have forgotten.  I'm not sure which.  I wouldn't say it "hurts", but its not "comfortable" either.  My ovaries throb a little and I feel twinges.

I also have a constant headache.  I did last time as well.  Yuck!  It could be the lack of sleep too.  I can't sleep.  My mind won't stop.  It's probably my nerves...

My mood swings haven't been that bad.  Better than last time, so far.  I get annoyed easily.  I'm not tolerating stupidity well.  I know that is terrible to say!  I lack patience.  I'm keeping my nose in a book so I don't needlessly snap at anyone. ;-)

I can't complain.  This will all be worth it in the end.

Have a great night!!!
