Nursing school here I come...


After struggling with infertility I decided to go back to school to be a nurse. There is no better way to understand what people are going through than to have experienced it yourself. I first thought I wanted to go work for the reproductive endocrenologist here in town (that's when I thought he could get me pregnant). Today it became offical I received my acceptance letter in the mail. A girl I work with was also accepted, she went home for lunch and called to tell me her letter was there. We had to work until 5 o'clock tonight so needless to say my afternoon was very long. I was so nervous to open it so I let Jason. Of course he tried to read the letter as if I was not accepted I dind't know what to think and then I realized he was messing with me. To see the word Congratulations really took a lot of weight off my shoulders. I will start in Jan 2010 and graduate in Dec 2011!

Hysteroscopy went well

We are headed back to Wichita. My appointment went as expected. They found nothing that could be the cause of our infertility. The nurse said she had never seen such a beautiful uterus. I guess that's a compliment. I told him that everything in the past has been text book. He said if it would make me feel better mine wasn't text book but very pretty! Part of me wanted them to find something wrong just so I would have an answer to why I can't get pregnant. Oh and the Valium that I was so worried about really hasn't done anything to me. I could have just saved my $1.74 and all the stress of wondering if I would be a babbling idiot on the way home. Our next appt will be October 16th. He will do a mock transfer and go over the medications that day. Another thing my last office didn't do.

AF has finally arrived


I will be heading down to Dallas next Friday 9/25. My appointment is at 3:00pm. Norma (my mother in-law) will be my chauffeur for this trip. I will have to take Valium 30 min before my appointment. The pharmasist said it stays in your system for about 8 hours, so no driving for me. I haven't talked it over with her but i'm sure it will be another 1 day trip. I hate to spend the money on hotel so early in the game. I'm sure there will be plenty of oppertunities for us to stay in Dallas.

Tomorrow is Hillsboro's yearly craft show so mom and a friend of hers, Maryann are on their way down for the weekend. I've been keeping our lastest project from her. I wanted to see if she noticed when she walked in the door. If she doesn't I will be shocked.

Still waiting...

Well Aunt Flow is being really stubborn this month. I won't know anything until my cycle starts which I thought would be last weekend, and I was wrong. The Dr. wants to see me between cycle day 6-10. I am hoping AF starts anytime now. It would be great if this would all work out that I could go next Friday and not miss work. I ordered my medications they will be arriving next Thursday so my kitchen table will look like a pharmacy. This doctor was really nice and ordered me shorter needles. Only 1" this time not 1.5". I think the 1.5 was a little to much considering I don't have much meat on my hips. All the other medications are about the same as last time, just a couple changes that I will have to talk to the nurse about when ever I go down.
