It's real... Like really real...

Okay so that Sonohysterogram is no joke. Ouch. Saline burns, it makes you cramp and oh yeah, it hurts. The procedure lasted all of 7 min, but there were some moments I was deep breathing quite loudly. Afterward, holy cow. Worst. Cramps. Ever. I couldn't sit comfortably, the nurse said "it's normal, take some Tylenol" thank goodness for Tylenol.

Results were A+, my uterus and such are cozy enough for an embryo to make a home, whoooo!

Then it came time to review "the calendar" (insert scary movie music here) WHOA. This is no joke. The timing, the dosage, 3 freakin injections a day. I'm freaked out. Not of the needles, but of the "timing" it's so important.

Timeline breakdown:
Today- July 18th birth control and prenatals
July 18th- begin Lupron injection, still birth control and prenatals
July 22nd- stop birth control
July 27th- appt for a Sono E2 to determine Lupron has begun to "work"
July 30th- Lupron, Gonodatropin, Menopur ALL injections!!
And so on... see cal below.

We also found out today that we have to do ICSI- which is the process of actually injecting the sperm into the egg.

The good news?? Vacation starts tomorrow and the RN said alcohol is just fine and dandy until 7/18 when Lupron starts, hallelujah!! I can have a drink or 5 in NY and not feel guilty.

Time to get packing!
