I can't believe that our transfer is only a week or so away! It seems like we've been waiting for this for months and it's almost here! I had an ultrasound yesterday and it showed that we have 12 follicles that are the size they should be right now. My estrogen level went up a bit so we had to increase the amount of meds for my thigh shots. The Lupron injections are going well, but the thigh injections are getting pretty sore. The soreness can be compared to the day after doing a ton of squats. Also, the meds burn a bit going in. Jon has been a trooper and feels so bad when the injection spots bleed. He always remarks about how it is all his fault that we are having to go through this in the first place. I just assure him that we're not doing anything that we both don't want to do.
I spent most of last weekend feeling nauseous. Luckily by Tuesday it seemed to have went away. Other good news is that my boobs are now back to my normal size and aren't so sore that I can't even hug anyone. This is due to being off of the birthcontrol for over a week now. In addition, I have lost 4 of the 6 pounds that I put on! Last night when I mentioned that I seemed to be a little more calm and relaxed since going off of it, Jon definitely agreed. Apparently he didn't like my psycho moodswings either! :)
Jon is also on day 18 of not drinking. I'm very proud of him for taking the initiative to do this without me asking him. I know it's been hard, especially on Friday nights when we both used to enjoy coming home and having a beer or glass of wine to relax after a long week. Hopefully this break in drinking will also help him to establish better drinking habits in the future...one can hope right?!?
