tomorrow is the big day.

I am on cd12 and I have not totally freaked out and obsessed over this current cycle. I think I actually [actually being stressed] learned patience from our last cycle. And for that, I am very proud.  Insert: pat on back. This doesn't come easy for me; I am the most impatient person in the world a very impatient person.

Tomorrow morning is cd13 ultrasound, I am sick-in-the-pit-of-my-tummy-nervous. What if all these twinges have been phantom? I'm pretty sure all the action going on down there has been very much real. In fact, I actually felt right side action, in which I have never, ever felt before....and pretty much daily on both sides, since about cd4. I am also happy to report EWCM. This is also a first for me....CM - always, EW, never.

Hopefully I will be reporting back a successful, lovely follie count on the 7.5mg dosage.

For now, I hope sleep will come tonight and the nerves stay bundled away.

Here we go!

Here's an update, as promised. I am writing from my bed. it's official, I have the flu. I haven't felt this horrible in years. I hope the meds kick this so I can feel better...I way more exciting things to focus on.

My RE called me back this morning and I am to start Femara 3 per day (7.5) cd 3-7. My ultrasound is scheduled for 4/21. I'm going to order my trigger today and spend this weekend deciding if the donor sperm we choose last time really, really is the one we want. This is such a huge, huge decision; really nerve racking. I read so many horror stories of low sperm counts. Ours was 14mil last time, and I was fine with that, but apparantly most consider that low. I wished they came with more than a 10mil guarantee.

I am so excited. I got my "Baby Bryant" journal and folder I was keeping everything in from our 1st go around and saw the pages and pages of names I had "narrowed" it down too. Ha! Silly, I know...but I have to say that 7 pages out of the 15 books I had checked out at the local library, isn't.bad.at.all.

Let the fun begin!
