Tick Tock

Last week when I had my IUI they told me I needed to do a second trigger shot on Friday (today).  This helps boost progesterone to help with implantation.

So this morning after my shower, I gave myself the ovidrel shot!  Before all of this, I never would have thought I would be able to give myself an injection so casually and so easily.  Oh the joys of infertility.

And since I had to do a second trigger shot, that means my two week wait becomes a three week wait.  Ugh.  Two weeks is bad enough.

With my last IUI I tested early.  I tested out the trigger shot so I wouldn't get a false positive.  All I kept coming up with were BFN's instead.  And it drove me crazy.  I was so negative and so sure it didn't work, even though it was early.

This IUI I have decided that I will not test early.  I will wait until March 9th.  That means I will go for three weeks before knowing if this worked.  The way I'm looking at it right now is that I had a one week wait for my trigger shot and now I have a two week wait for my bfp.  That's right, I'm envisioning a BFP (aren't we all).

To keep me busy during the wait I have lots going on.  Today starts massive cleaning day at Casa a la Suzy.  My Mom is coming to visit next Thursday.  I am so excited, but I have so much to do at home!  She will be here through the following Tuesday.  So I'll be busy preparing for her arrival and we will stay super busy while she's here.  I think that will help the last two weeks fly by.  At lest I hope it will.

In the mean time, I did some looking on Etsy.  Here's a fun Tick Tock treasury of goodies!

3 week wait would drive me insane. I keep myself busy with the housework and reading. Good luck!

It's hard to not think about it during the 2-3 ww. I think having your mom there and keeping busy with her will help you tons. Enjoy the weekend!!

Amanda said...

I'm envisioning you're bfp as well!

A 3 week wait sounds like torture. Ugh. I'm glad you're getting some good Mom time in the middle.

Leslie said...

Wow - 3 week wait! I am going crazy with a 2WW right now. You are a lot stronger than me! I have resisted the urge to test out the trigger though! Wishing you a bright BFP on 3/9. My beta is 3/6 so hopefully we will be celebrating the same week.

Yikes! I didn't even think about that when you said you were doing another trigger after IUI... I'm sorry your wait is extended. I do believe you have the right mindset though. Keep passing the time! Stick embies, stick!!

Ugh, the waiting is the worst! Like you, I never thought I would give myself injections! Way to go lady! Fingers crossed for you!

Emily said...

I think waiting is the worst part. I makes sure I have plans with friends, have funny movies to take my mind off things and pamper myself a bit.

Emily said...

Keeping everything crossed for you and hoping and praying this is it!

NewYearMum said...
