Had my appointment this morning at 7:40am. Getting up early on the weekend is much worse than during the week... it's like, everyone else is peacefully sleeping after a hard work-week — and I'm not. Arg.
Anyway, the ultrasound went well! The nurse said I might be able to do my HCG shot tonight, which surprised me... last time it seems like they wanted that one extra day, even though I had about the same amount of 'ready' follicles. So right after the blood draw, I went home and did my usual morning injections, then treated myself to some donuts! Noms.

Around 12:30, Dawn called me and said it's HCG time!!! Super excited about that, especially since it means that I don't have to do any more little shots. :D However, I have to do the HCG shot at 10:30pm... had a real hard time finding someone to do it, and then I also realized that Monday would be worse for me to take off than Tuesday, but I have no choice. So after many texts and phone calls and Facebook messages, things seem to be coming into place...
My appointment on Monday is at 9:30am, with the extraction at 10:30am. Oh, also, since I don't have to shoot up tomorrow, I get to sleep-in!!!!! Omg I am SO glad I don't have to be at the Center at 7am tomorrow... I haven't slept-in since 3 weeks ago. Ahhh... it's gonna be so good! Unless the injection site is sore and my ovaries complain... :/

Alex did great!!! Felt a poke, but nothing horrible... I stay surprisingly relaxed during those big injections... blood draws, on the other hand — not so much. :P
So fingers crossed that the HCG is swimming through my blood right now, and I'll be Fertile Myrtle on Monday morning!
P.S. Today really sucked... lots of stress and jerky mood swings... yeah, awesome. Glad I'm done.
