Okay...is it weird to be this excited about a "big a$$ shot" (pun totally intended)? Just got word that my estradiol level is 4476 -- my lining was almost 13 and I had 22 visible follies. They also are lowering the level of HCG...I guess that's cool...but the shot's needle is still flipping humongous!
The nurse drew a bulls-eye on my backside...though my mother is a Nurse Practitioner, so she should have no issues with this shot. Although, all of us, Mom, Dad and DH are cracking that my "mom is helping me get preggers"...should make for great conversation later.
ER will be Thursday AM...I'm nervous and excited...and have every digit crossed that this truly our time for joy.
