Stim Day 3

I got to sleep in a bit today. It was nice. :) The AM meds went quickly/easily. Same as before:
Lupron - 5 units
Follistim- 300 units
Baby Aspirin - 80 mg

I arrived at my appointment 15 minutes early. I paid our deposit on this cycle, and checked in. I was surprised that they called me back right away. The blood draw was a cinch. (Since I'm super hydrated) and then they took me back for the ultrasound. I got in the u/s room and Dr. Opie came in. He pulled up my chart and looked confused. He asked, "why are you here today?" I explained I was on stim day 3 and that when I scheduled on Sunday the front desk gal told me that I'd be doing blood work and ultrasound. Nope. He doesn't do stim day 3 ultrasounds. As he put it "we wouldn't see anything worth looking at, so we'll save you the money and not do one today." Okie dokie. I left and drove like a crazy woman to work.

I arrived at work 3 hours past my normal start time. The place looked like a bomb had gone off. I don't think my boss expected me that early. Normally the house is put together, and the kids are somewhat calm. There were toys strewn everywhere! There were clean dishes stacked on the counter to be put away and dirty dishes in the open dishwasher and in the sink. The oldest (4) was feeding the youngest (2) her breakfast. (Which is completely unnecessary as she can feed herself) My boss was in pajamas and looked harried. I buzzed in, got the youngest eating on her own, the oldest cleaning up toys and my boss did the dishes. Everything was back to (my) normal, and my boss headed up to her office to work for the day.

I had a great day with the girls. We went to an incredible park with tons of ropes/nets to climb. They had a blast. We came home and ate lunch then they went down for naps. During naptime my boss came down to check in with me and see if I was still ok to work an hour later than normal. I told her I was feeling fine (sort of) and we discussed the cycle a bit. As we talked my phone rang. It was wonderful nurse Sarah. She told me my estrogen was at 112, which was what they were expecting. All my meds stay the same and I'm to come back on Friday for blood work and ultrasound. My boss left for the call and came back to find out if everything was ok. I swear, she's more excited by all of this than me! I filled her in and she headed back up to her office to work. The little one woke and then the older one. We had snack and headed out into the sunshine to play.

PM meds for tonight really hurt!
Menopur - 150 units
I watched a youtube video on injecting menopur and her tip was to let it sit after reconstituting it so that it doesn't burn as much. The first time I injected it there was no pain. Last night was a bit of burning. Tonight (even after letting it sit a bit) it burned like crazy and it actually hurt after I pulled out the needle. My abdomen is still a bit sore where I injected it (20 minutes later), but hopefully that will calm down soon.

My new concern (which I'll call the RE about tomorrow) is that I'm almost out of the Menopur. After tomorrow night's dose I only have 75 units left. If they keep me on my current protocol, I'll be out of luck. Hopefully I will get an answer and new prescription from them tomorrow.
