Good afternoon!
I went for my CD 14 Ultra Sound today (that's Cycle Day 14) to check for a follicle and ovulation. Since our first ectopic occurred on my left side, I was really hoping to be ovulating from my right this time. Alas, that was not the case. A good size follicle was on my left ovary. But we are not in charge - GOD is - and we have to trust that everything will work out according to His plan. Not our own.
I have another appointment tomorrow morning to check the follicle again. If it has grown beyond the 1.7mm it was this morning, we will proceed with taking Pregnyl, which is an HCG trigger shot. Basically, this hormone will force the egg out of follicle at the right time so when we do the IUI procedure on Wednesday, the wheels will be in motion!
UPDATE - the office called this afternoon with my blood results and the IUI has been bumped up to tomorrow - Tuesday! I'm a little nervous, but trying to be excited and hopeful. We're so gun shy right now with all that has happened. But GOD is in control! We know this!!
Please pray for us this week for God's perfect plan and also pray with us that we do not have another ectopic pregnancy. That is the one thing that scares me to death in all of this. I'm not sure I can go through that emotional pain again.
We've yet to really publicize this blog, it has been more of a diary for me to get my thoughts and feelings out as we start the adventure again. But if you have happened upon it and prayed for us at any time during this, we appreciate it so much!
I'll update again tomorrow!
