Hurry up and wait

Not only is that what I'll be doing for the next 2 weeks, it was also the theme of the day. We didn't get taken into our 10:30 appointment until about 11:20. Mr H's post wash was 10 mil, not great but certainly not horrible. Procedure itself went fine. I was a little nervous since my dr had said it would feel similar to the HSG...and I thought that was horrible. He had a little trouble getting my cervix into position but once he did it was over in seconds. And now I like to think of it as some crazy reality show going on in my tubes. I named it Egg-lette as my one little egg looks for the perfect spermie. I was thinking something along the lines of Rock of Love, but if this works, I really don't want to associate my future child with B.rett Michael or any of those skanky, skanky ladies.

I get to start my Pr.ometrium tomorrow (happy thanksgiving to me) and my beta in scheduled for Dec 6. After the chemical last month I'm not sure if I'll test early or not. Regardless I'll test on the morning of the beta, I need some advance notice of impending bad news.

Hope everyone has a wonderful thanksgiving. We're going to my parents first thing in the morning and are in charge of breakfast. I'm making apple butter pancakes and Mr H has various meats he's very excited about. And from there...we'll pretty much just eat all day. And of course we have the apple vodka! My brother also made a cinnamon infused bourbon....sure to be a fun afternoon.

Hope you all have (or had) a great Thanksgiving. And the apple pancakes sound delish! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that this cycle works out great -- I'll be thinking happy fertilization and implantation thoughts for you.

Hi! Thanks for your comment on my blog - I actually have two blogs, too - one for those I want to invite on this journey (though that list is growing) and one for 'everyone else'. I'm sure it's inevitable that they will merge at some point, but I'm not quite ready for that.

I've tagged your blog, and hope that even through cyber space, I can lend you some support as well.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Oh yes, hurry up and wait. I start my prometrium tomorrow too. And I'm also with you on the whole chemical pregnancy thing may have cured my desire to test early. Happy Thanksgiving.

What about like Bachelor or Flavor of Love? I love New York?
