I started my stim meds on July 5th and everything is going as planned, I am just bruised and very sore. I do two injections every morning and one injection every evening, and in between that I take one antibiotic two times a day and a low dosage aspirin and a prental viatmin. Ben is also taking the antibiotics so we can both stay healthy prior to the retrieval and transfer. I knew the shots would be uncomfortable, but I didn't realize how bruised and sore I would be from them. And since about Saturday afternoon, I have been really bloated and just feeling tired. We went for an ultrasound and more blood work on Sunday morning and the ultrasound showed to be normal for a 6-day stim cycle, so everything is on track. I had a few follicles, so hopefully when I go back on Wednesday for another ultrasound and blood work I will have more follicles and they will have grown so we can do the retrieval on Saturday. Have I mentioned that I REALLY like my doctor, he is great.
This process is going by so fast. It seems like we were just talking about starting it and starting birth control for the few weeks before starting any medications. Ben and I were talking on Saturday about how fast this is going by since the retrieval will be this weekend and then the transfer the following week.
A little evidence of the bruising I am experiencing on my abdomen.
Everytime I go to the doctor I have to get blood work done, and am walking away with bad bruises on my arms. I'm sure people are wondering what all the bruising is from. :)
