Captain's Log: CD 14 US

The concern of canceling the cycle because of 3 follies is gone. I only have one potentially mature follie at 19mm. There is a 14mm hanging out that I am hoping will mature past 15 and go with the trigger. 

I was really hoping for two follies to have two targets, and I am a little disappointed  after this morning's appointment. 

But, I'm trying to remain optimistic and thankful that everything else looks great. My lining is good, but I did forget to ask what it was. My E2 level was drawn but I haven't heard back about that yet. 

Nurse Missy gave me my Menopur shot. Remember when I said it hurt? Wanna know why? Because Freedom Fertility didn't send me Sub Q needles. So the needle I used was an intramuscular needle. I didn't put the needle all the way in, but it was a large size. As for the burning, it still BURNS WITH THE FIRE OF A THOUSAND SUNS! 

As it was going in today I almost had to grab a hold of something to distract me. It's like 10 seconds of my stomach being melted from the inside. After that, it's ok. It's warm but not in a nice fuzzy way. I just kept thinking this with be all worth it and it's only a few seconds. 

My E2 draw only took one shot today instead of the three pokes on CD 11. Thanks to TB suggestions, I drank lots of water beforehand. I hope that's what helped and will continue to do that from now on. 

I am meeting my mother in law tonight for her to give me the trigger shot. It's IM and there's no way I can do it or that DH can do it. He won't even be in the same room when I give myself shots. 

FX that the little follie matures and we get two targets! Otherwise, we will continue with one follie and IUI on Wednesday.
