I had my RE appt this morning in St. Louis. I was supposed to be there at 9:45 (it's a 2 hour drive) and my stinking alarm didn't go off! Maddox woke up me at like 8 something! I didn't shower or anything! I got dressed as quick as I could.. fed Maddox a Nutrigrain bar and milk and left. I called them and asked would it be okay because my doctor was only working 1/2 a day they told me when I booked my appt. Well, the reason why is because he goes to the IVF center on Fridays. Just so happens today was my lucky day and he didn't have any cases, so they told me to come on when I could. I got a positive OPK yesterday. I always get + OPKs every month but I never ovulate.. it's just my body gearing up for ovulation. Anyway, I could feel something was going on in there cause I have been so crampy. Well he did the ultrasound and I had a 22mm x 22mm follie! That is a great sized follie! I was a little disappointed I only had one, but excited the the Femara worked none the less! So, they sent me down to the pharmacy to get my trigger shot. This hospital is huge. I got lost like a hundred times... pushing Maddox in his stroller and he was getting antsy, so I stopped and got him a cookie and me a drink. After I got my trigger shot, I went back up the elevator to my RE's office and the nurse gave me my shot and we left.
Tonight was Eric's Dining out, basically a military ball of sorts of his BOLOC (Basic Officier Leadership _____ Course) I don't know what the other O stands for lol. Anyway it's very formal. So I went and got my hair done. Then I came home and hurried to get ready cause I was already running so late. Eric had to leave before I was able to put on my dress so when I took Maddox over to my friend Christin's who watched Maddox for us while we were at the Dining Out, she zipped me up lol. The Dining Out lasted forever and was pretty boring. It's so ceremonial-like. They do serve dinner and I had been so busy all day that I hadn't eaten and when I did eat it tore my stomach up, so I had a horrible stomach ache. Anyway, it was fun to dress up and all that for a night. :)
As far as the baby thing goes... I'm supposed to ovulate tomorrow. So, Sunday will 1 DPO. The nurse told me not to test until February 11th because I will get false positive due to the hcg trigger shot. So that stinks. I am just praying really hard that this is it! I have a good feeling about it! I'm keeping the faith that the Lord will come through for us and help us create this baby and sibling for Maddox we want so badly.
