Doctor's Appointment

Last week I went to the doctor for a day 14 ultrasound.  She wanted to see me back today for a follow up ultrasound.  Last week it looked like I had 2 follicles on my right ovary and 1 GIANT follicle/cyst on the left.  They were concerned about the cyst on the left but excited about the ones on the right.  They were just not quite big enough for the HCG injection to make me ovulate.  So today, I was expecting the same thing.  But, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the right ovary has 3 ready-to-go follicles and the left still has the giant one.  She did give me the HCG shot and said that if I didn't get pregnant this time, that we would take a month off trying to get the large cyst to rupture.

So of course as the nurse is giving me the shot and we are just-a-chatting, I had to say that I really hope this is the month.  Then we started talking....and I got teary.  I haven't gotten teary like that in months. (And by that I mean about pregnancy... I tear all the time.... I am overly emotional sometimes)  I don't like being teary in the doctor's office.  I know they are probably accustomed to it, but I worry they will think something is wrong with me or they will want to send me somewhere else.

Oh well, 5 minutes after I left I was perfectly fine.  Headed to Wal-mart to get some veggies.  Whether he knows it or not, Jonathan and I are going on a diet effective tomorrow.  We both need to, but have no motivation.  But, we are going to work at it anyway.  I won't know much in the way of pregnancy or adoption for a while, but I still have things I want to post about and keep you updated on the weight loss.

Praying that you are finding your way to your family!
