Well, I had another hystroscopy yesterday. Everything looked good- the polyps were all gone! Woohoo!! But, while Dr. C was looking around, he saw what looked like a follicle on my left ovary. So off for bloodwork I went. Depending on what that said, I would know whether or not to proceed with my patches that started today. I was a nervous wreck. I know God is bigger than anything my body can come up with, but it was so hard to have to wait and see...luckily, they called me when I was driving home, and everything was OK. I mean, seriously, I only make a couple of follicles when I am on the stims, and yet when I am on the lupron, that is supposed to suppress everything, I still make 1?? UGH! But it is not affecting anything right now, so I guess that is all ok. Just typical of this whole process for us!
I started my first patch today. I am trying to be good and avoid all caffeine I can. I did have a Chick-fil-A sweet tea yesterday. Which is OK-I am technically allowed up to 150 mg a day, but have tried to eliminate all that I can. The caffeine in chocolate is about all I am having, and most of it is milk, so it is pretty low.
So, I have been in a weird emotional place lately. Both boys have made comments lately about wanting a little sister. It kills me knowing that we so desperately wanted a girl, and got boy embryos. I just am hoping that they come around to a little brother just the same. And if it doesn't work this time, I am going to be praying again for a girl.
I don't know what God is trying to teach me lately, but I am just trying to listen, to have faith, and to be patient. It is hard, the whole journey has been hard, but it will all be worth it!
