We left off after September ended up being the big fat negative, which led us into October and the "timing" issues.
Over the "key week" in October for the necessary Dr's visits, ultrasounds, injections and IUI, I was in San Antonio for my first week long session of veterinary acupuncture training so I was unable to do the whole course of fertility treatments that I had done in September. Randy came over to visit in San Antonio but I had NO idea how absolutely exhausted I would be each day after lecture/labs so it was a rather boring visit for Randy!
I had grand hopes that "not being worried" about the whole fertility/getting pregnant thing last month would have that wonderful "it'll happen when you stop thinking about it" effect that so many people talk about, but alas, despite being 5 days late, that pregnancy test was negative! I have figured out my kiss of doom is to take a pregnancy test for inevitably the next day will come the "proof" of the negativity! :-)
I was worried that this month was going to have the same "scheduling issues" as last month as I am in San Antonio again for the second week of acupuncture class, but due to being "late" last month actually helped out with the scheduling this month and being back town for the necessary appointments. In fact it couldn't have been timed more perfectly...I get back to Houston tomorrow after being on my fertility meds the last week and go in for my follicle scan ultrasound on Monday and have IUI scheduled for Wednesday. So between being out of town, the weekend, and Thanksgiving, things lined up nicely...Maybe everything will continue to be aligned nicely and it'll be the magic month :-)
Everyone have a great Thanksgiving, be thankful for what you have in life.
Maybe I'll have a little more to be thankful for after this month... We'll see!!!
