Treatment Update

Hmmm...tough day for me...the ultrasound still showed clusters of follicles (many of them) that could potentially be released after giving the hCg shot, but unfortunately, they did not grow very much. The doctor was very upset about the way things were progressing, which made me feel hopeless and confused, but he decided to proceed with the treatment plan. I will give injections for two more days and see him on Saturday morning to schedule the hCg shot and insemination date if things are okay. From our conversation today, it almost seems like this cycle will have to be cancelled. I just know it will happen...I'm just not feeling the positive vibe. It is very stressful and um...I sometimes want to give up. I am very tired and frustrated. And the injections aren't getting any easier for me to do. I'm very emotional right now and maybe I'll feel different in a couple of hours...but for right now, I just want to cry.

we love you Pa! We love all the cute pics of Jacob, especially scrolling down and seeing his newborn pics next to the current pics, amazing. I remember wondering if Brandon would ever get siblings, I would not have guessed three! Although my journey was not nearly as difficult as yours, I know those babies are on their way. Wish I were there to give you a hug and give Jacob a kisses.
