My uterus is an overachiever

I write to you this evening from the comfort of my bathroom. Between the set up for my injection, the injection it's self, and of course the butt rubbing and heat after, I find myself spending a lot of time in the bathroom these days.

 I am currently at the peak of my medications. I take 2 prenatals, aspirin, Medrol, doxycycline, progesterone, and delestrogen currently. Which is funny since I'm not a fan of medications unless absolutely necessary. I usually like to go the more natural/ holistic route. 

Ok enough about the medications! Let's get to the monitoring appointments!! Since my initial medical clearing in Portland back in April I have had numerous local monitoring appointments. The reason for this is to make sure I'm progressing the way I should without me having to go all the way to Portland just for a few blood draws and ultrasounds.

I had a big appointment 2 weeks ago that was to measure the lining of my uterus. After only two doses of my delestrogen my lining was at 11.2!!! For an ideal transfer it needs to be at a minimum of 8. With 3 weeks left to go until transfer this was incredible news. I knew my body was prime for making babies, but I had no idea my uterus was such an over achiever. 

With everything right on track I will be heading to Portland on Saturday!! It's crazy to think that after having the last 7 months to prepare that the time is finally here!!

Tomorrows blog post will be all about Dave and I telling the kids what's happening! I am going to see if I can post a video on here. 

Now that my butt is toasty warm and the medicine has hopefully spread through the muscle, I'm going to blow this popcicle stand and head downstairs. Pretty sure I just heard Dave come home from the ice cream run I sent him on! These hormones have me craving food more then my pregnancies did!!
