Pokin' the Snowman

Well, the snowman got some more pokin’ last night! I got home from the gym, and I was getting the kids through the shower. I was standing in my kitchen thinking that it was time for my shot. I thought that I would just do it right then and there, do it quickly and get it over with! So I got everything ready… and I stood there and stood there and stood there! Grrrr! This is SO silly!!! I knew that I was not going to be able to do it, so Kait and I had a briefing with the snowman! She did a great job! So then it came time for the shot. I told her to count to three and then poke it in, so she did. She said “Ok Mommy, here we go! One, two, three!” And she poked it in and pulled it right back out!! Ahh!! I said “Kait! (As I am laughing so hard!) You need to leave it in so that I can push the medicine in!” She was like “Well that is how we practiced, and that is how I always get shots at the doctor’s office!” It was so funny! We were both laughing! So we went for poke #2 and she did great, so did Mommy! So now we have a total of 600 units of Follistem on board. That is about $450.00 worth! Shesh! I don’t know yet if my insurance is going to reimburse me. I sent them a bill for over $1300.00 worth of medication.

I had my appt this morning with the RE. Things looked good on the u/s. She measured 2 follies on the left and 6 on the right. They took the blood and said to call back after 1 for instructions. She asked if Rich was going to be around this week and I told her that he was away now, but as soon as he was needed, he would come home. So I am thinking that we will have the IUI Friday or Saturday. Just a guess. I will update when I get further information later today, and I am going to try to find my camera so that I can post a pic of the snowman!!
