...and about 60 more to go. Shots, that is. I had my first shot of MDL this morning, my first shot since the beginning of May. It was fine, but I forgot it is a shot, and it hurts a bit. Not bad, but I actually thought to myself, "Huh, it hurts." Not sure what I expected.
Anyway, now that I'm done with that first step, I start focusing on packing and getting organized for the trip. I think I'm leaving Sunday. I'm driving, not sure if I've mentioned that here. I have a friend who is also cycling at the far away clinic, and we decided to caravan road trip out there. I'm looking forward to the drive, I really like to drive. Sing at the top of my lungs, listen to books on tape (or CD these days, did I just date myself??), chat on the phone (hands-free of course). We're not going to push it, so it will take us 2 days, which will put us at the far away clinic on Monday night.
And I am also in the process of transferring my one frozen blast to the far away clinic. We had to get all these releases notarized yesterday, and today I have to send them off. This way this blast can be included in the CGH/MA on the many other (I hope!) blasts from this cycle. More paperwork, more money. But hey, maybe that little snowbaby is the one! Ya never know.

Doesn't it feel great to be moving forward, even if it means jabbing ourselves with needles! Here's to hoping for lots of blasts to test. Best of luck and drive safe!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a safe journey!!! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThe road trip sounds like fun! And I'm glad you'll have a partner in crime with you. And if you get bored, you can pull over to the side of the road and shoot each other up with meds! =)
ReplyDeleteYou're doing great so far!
Good luck!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThats exactly how I felt for my first shot (of IVF#4) too. We are just days apart in cycling. I took my first shot last Saturday. Wish you all the very best. I will be stalking your blog to watch for more updates. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you and your snowbaby make the trip without a hitch. How nice to have someone who is going through the same thing to hang out with for the trip. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHappy trails, lady! That sounds like so much fun! Snowbaby + Blasts or Bust!!! I'll be thinking of you and crossing all my digits!
ReplyDeleteDrive safely, sing loudly and GOOD LUCK! Yay....
ReplyDeleteWow, you are really on your way! I can't wait to hear how the far away visit goes! I'm excited you get to include your snowbaby, too. I'm so glad you have a friend to caravan with!
ReplyDeleteYay! Well underway now. After a few weeks at the far away place I have a half decent feel for local places to eat (yes - more than just nuggets!) Ping me if you have a craving for something! Best of luck with the cycle. Are you taking the frozen one with you on the road trip? I really assume not, BUT, if so, pick up one of those "baby on board" stickers and put it on your bumper!!!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great trip. Good luck with all of your shots!
