Zzzzzz

I slept quite wonderfully last night.  I only woke up twice.  Once for...I have no clue.  The other was when my hubby's alarm went off.  His goes off about a half hour before mine.  I hate his alarm.  I hate my alarm.  Come to think of it, I truly dislike all alarms that wake me up.  Yes, I am totally not a morning person.  I would love it if I could sleep in until about 9 or 10 every single day for the rest of my life.  That would be lovely.  Mmhmm, it would.  My hubby would be the first to tell you how much I do, indeed, LoVe my sleep.  He tells me he cowers on his side of the bed if I'm hogging the blankets, just so he doesn't have to wake me up.  LOL!  It's like he thinks I would bite his head off or something.  ;)

Anyway, my head seems normal for the first time in the last week.  I don't feel the "dread" of a migraine hovering over me.  So, maybe a good night sleep is what I needed.  < silently jumping for joy >  Carry on....

Land of nod

My head seems to be a tad under control now.  I still feel like I will be overcome by a massive migraine at any given moment, but haven't since Saturday night.  My nights are quite restless, with sleep coming in short spurts.  But hey, at least I am all done with the birth control pills!  I took the last one of those lil bad boys last night. 

So, good ole Aunt Flo should arrive in a few days.  Then I will be off to the clinic for labwork and a baseline ultrasound.  The ultrasound is basically to see my lining's starting point before adding in the meds to make it all nice and cushy for the embies!  Then, I will start on estrogen, patches and pills, I believe.  I'm so stinkin excited to be moving along!  We are looking at transferring the first or second week of July.  We will get to see G&M again then!  I can't wait to see them again and especially under not-so-rushed circumstances like the first time.

Ugh!

Okay, this lupron is seriously kicking my ass.  My head started hurting yesterday.  It has actually intensified throughout the night.  I could barely move this morning.  Hopefully this is only until my body gets used to the med.  So, I will be popping some tylenol in hopes that it will work today, even though it didn't work yesterday.  Wish me luck!

Lupron here I come!

I was told today by the nurse that I could begin Lupron tonight.  I'm not gonna lie, I was nervous.  I had never given myself a shot.  I never even look when I get shots or get blood taken at the hospital.  I prepped and got it all ready.  The needle is just a small insulin needle.  I couldn't even feel it go into my stomach.  It was pretty darn easy, actually.  So, now I may or may not become a severely anal, psychotic bitch.  So, I'm apologizing in advance to my husband, my kids, the rest of my family, co-workers, grocery checkers, other drivers on the road....basically anyone who crosses my path.  :)  I blame it all on the Lupron.  You have been forewarned! 

Meds are here!

My meds arrived on Thursday, as expected.  I will hopefully hear from the clinic as to when I should begin Lupron.  Here's a pic of all my meds, needles, syringes and sharps container.  All this stuff to help an amazing couple have a baby!!  :)
