Light and the tunnel

I still have a few more days of shots, but I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel! It is looking like Sunday or Monday will be the retrieval day (fingers crossed).

Today started with a blood test and ultrasound. There is someone filling in for the nurse doing blood tests, and I like her so much. She is better than the other nurse at getting the needle in and out with very little pain. I even told her how good she was. A tender mercy.

I think the medication is making me tired. Or maybe that is just an excuse. I'm not sure which. You know when you think you might be pregnant so you start feeling the symptoms? Well, it's kind of like that. I know I am getting the drugs and I am feeling kind of tired, so I am blaming the tiredness on the drugs. Maybe I am just going to bed too late. Either way, I took a nap today and it felt great.

I have also been absentminded lately. I am going to blame this on the drugs too. Three different times I was driving somewhere and forgot to turn when it was time, so I took the long way instead. A very unusual occurrence for me.

My tummy really hurts each time I give shots. It is pretty gross. I have considered taking a picture, but decided that my stomach without bruises isn't worth looking at, so now with bruises, it's definitely not something people need to see. I did only have to give myself three shots tonight, which was nice. But the 2nd one really hurt, so it took a lot of courage to give the 3rd one. Courage? I'm not sure if that was the best word to use, it seems too strong, but you know what I mean.

I guess I am done rambling. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers!
