HSG

The HSG was on 12/8 @ 1pm. I got there a bit early because you just never know. I had to put on a gown and wait in this little waiting room. After about 20 mins of waiting I got called back. The 2 techs talked me though what I was going to do and then they went and got the Radiologist. She was so nice. They then did the procedure. It took a total of maybe 10 mins. I had to roll to my sides to make sure that the dye was going out the tubes. I got to watch the whole thing. Everything looked so small. But she said that they looked good and open, but she would have the final report to my dr in a few days. I had some minor cramping and such. I felt really full and a little nausea when they were done, but for the most part, it wasnt too bad.

I know I know

I know I am just crazy some days but I couldn't sleep. I just have this feeling that we are going to have either twins or triplets. If we have triplets I have a feeling it is going to be 2 boys and 1 girl. So, in my madness of babies I found these.

Blood work

So, CD3 ended up being on Wednesday. And wouldn't you know it that I had to work on CD2. So that meant fasting after 1130 until I got my blood drawn. It went pretty good. Only had 1 sip of water at 5am bc I just couldn't handle it anymore. Had a staff meeting at 7am, stayed at that until 740 ish. Got my stuff and went down stairs to get registered and get it drawn. Well 9 tubes of blood and 50 mins later I was down the elevator to the Cafe to grab a bagel and some lemonade. I know not the best breakfast, but I had to have something so I could just make it home.

HSG is set up for tomorrow 12/8 at 1pm EST. Will update you with that when I get home

Dr appt update

So I went. I was a nervous wreck, I even freaked out texted Karissa. Thanks again for that! I get there and the office is just beautiful! Reminded me of what I would picture a spa to look like. Very warm and welcoming. So, I get in the room and it is very nice also. about 20 mins of waiting and then a Dr. Burke came in and talked to me. She was very nice. My new OB sent over all of my records! Even mine from Petoskey. She was quite shocked, but didn't have to ask me a lot of questions because of it. Then Dr. Kowalczyk came in. Oh she is so wonderful. She reminds me a lot of Eve and Jenni from Petoskey. Just understanding and wonderful. Then they ran a test to make sure I wasn't pregnant. Nope, and no surprise there. Then she checked me out lungs, heart that type of thing. Then we had a meeting in her office. It took about 10 mins. She said we are going to do some blood work on CD3 to check to see where my levels are. Then on CD 6-12 we are going to do a HSG or Hysterosalpingogram you can read about the procedure here. In Jan Shawn will do a S/A to make sure everything is good there, then we will reconvene and make a game plan. She said only 4 rounds of Clomid and then we move on to Bigger and better! I am so glad that I picked her.

1 week 6 days

That is how many days I have left until my apt. I am starting to freak out. Plus I have some people who don't think it is such a good idea for us to have a baby right now. I wish I would tell them to back off, but I cant. I guess I don't have the balls to do it. It is hurtful. I guess that is there opinion, but these are people that I was hoping to have on our side during these times. Hopefully they will turn around. My mom is stoked though. She keeps telling me that it would be a wonderful Christmas gift. I wish I could give it to her, I just have a feeling that we wont be really starting until Jan.
I haven't been able to weight my self lately so hopefully at my apt I will have a nice surprise. I have been doing pretty good in Boot Camp, I had a little bit of a set back last week with getting a bout of flu but I am almost back to par!
