The Morning After

IVF ROUND 5

DAY 1
(Friday Nov 4)

Meds: 300iu Gonal-f , 150iu Menopur 

Notes: estrogen=26.49; LH=4. 68; progesterone=0.226; lining=4.9mm; antral follicles=13 (it was on the voice mail lol)

Captain’s log. Last night we did our first shots at 8pm sharp ish.

The menopur burned as usual, the gonal-f pen clicked down as expected. I felt dizzy for a bit per the norm and we spent the rest of the night on the couch watching movies as we did before.

I realized that because this is an exact copy of a cycle we did before that I am going to be comparing them like it’s going out of fashion and it’s going to suck if this one goes worse but it is what it is. So far today, the cycles are exactly the same and that’s good news haha.

I had a full day of nothing planned today, maybe some online shopping but it turns out I have to go to the police station to get some fingerprints taken so that I can get documents from home. So I might as well get up and make breakfast .

Happy weekend my friends!

Emotional: Was nervous and down yesterday afternoon I think because my period was starting. But the closer it got to injection time the more excited I got.

Physical: Period became real around 9pm so with it came cramps. Experienced dizziness after menopur injection. No metalic taste in mouth.

Food: Sneaky bag of my favorite chips from Cumberland farms. Salad for lunch. Bunless burger and fries from Five Guys for dinner.

Just some notes

A few pre-cycle gifts I received from ttc sisters

A must!
