I'm on day four of my morning Menopure and Bravelle shot and I'm feeling A-OKay. Well, minus the car ride home from the airport yesterday when I started to get a minor headache and feel a little motion sickness and nauseous. This process makes me feel so cooped up and stuck in my body like a little lab rat. I sometimes get these really strong desires to barge out of my front door parodying Rocky Balboa and go ham in the gym, or save a little old lady in distress or something heroic like that. But I'd have to be able to save her in 5 minutes or less, because those desires don't last all that long. Soon enough, I'm ready to crash on the couch and watch Zig and Sharko with Khloe and her blanket. Anyways...
And then, when I went to bed late last night, my head was spinning and the motion sickness was still lingering. (Actually, just talking about it is making me feel it again.) When my eyes are closed, my head spins slowly and in large circles.... I'm not sure if this is the meds (yes, it is the meds) or if I'm transforming into a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
<< I'm loosing it. >>
Here are a portion of the meds I'll be taking over the next week. The rest are in the refrigerator and we won't be starting with those
until Monday after my first ultrasound appointment (at 8:30am). If all goes well at the ultrasound and my blood test results come back with good news, then we'll find out the exact day of the retrieval and the transfer. There will be some more shots incorporated into those days, different medications, bigger needles, bigger bruises, and an even more uncomfortable Jen.
Blah, blah, blah...nobody cares.... We're just taking it one day at a time. On another note, I made a cookie/cake thing last night with Jess and it was ridiculously amazing and so easy. Check it out: http://www.yummly.com/recipe/Lazy-Cake-Cookies-607368?columns=4&position=10%2F48
I also went to Florida over New Years Eve-- that was a big deal! It was so nice to spend time with Lauren and Andrew just relaxing and catching up. I loved every single second of it and miss them already. <3
