Mock Embryo Overload


Today was my Mock Embryo Transfer. Or what I like to call simply another excuse to get me up in the stirrups. Anyway this was a chance for the Dr. to do a test run for the big day. He was able to check his instruments and see what size would be best. He got to map out my uterus and other interesting regions. I'm sure it was all very fascinating, fortunately it wasn't too painful or scary. What was scary though was the trip down the stairs to the pharmacy. This is what I was given...






This entire bag filled to the brim with the medications I would be using in the next 6 weeks. When the tech brought it out to me I just stared at her. I couldn't believe how much stuff there was. I don't think I said one single word while I was being rung up. I felt a sense of panic engulfing me. I felt so overwhelmed. Fortunately we have the prescription card of the gods and instead of this bundle costing us $3,000.00 we were able to pick it up for the bargain price of $85. I was feeling grateful and overwhelmed, but not as overwhelmed as when I got home and started taking everything out of the bag....


I'm finding it hard to believe that within 6 weeks I will have
injected or ingested all of these hormones.
Porter is also currently in shock since he will be the one in charge of doing the injecting.
Mama Mia!

What's Lurking in Your Frigidaire?

Came home from work last night opened the frig and found this.
