Day 1

Well, I consider today day 1 of this round of artificial.  I took a pregnancy test this morning, and it came up negative, so I started taking the Provera today!!  If everything goes as planned, this is a quick view of the important dates for this cycle:

April 5:              Start taking Provera for 10 days
April 14:            Last Day to take the Provera (also my dad's 70th birthday)
April 19:           Should start my period
April 20 or 21:  Go to the doctor and have an ultasound done to make sure that I do not have any cysts on my ovaries (the 21st is also the day that my cousin Jaelyn will be born!!!)
April 21 or 22:  Start taking the Follistim (injections) and the Femara (pill)
April 28 or 29:  Stop taking the Follistim and the Femara and go to the doctor to see if I have produced any follicle that are large enough (18-25 mm) to continue with the cycle.
April 28 or 29:  If my follicles look good, Dustin will give me a shop in the bottom most likely on the 30th
May 2:              GO IN FOR THE INSEMINATION!!!!!!!
May 16:            I CAN TAKE A PREGNANCY TEST....AND HOPE FOR A POSITIVE RESULT!!!!

I am so excited!!!!  I was just sitting around thinking about everything last night, and I thought to myself, I could be pregnant in a month.....and I could be a mommy at this time next year......seriously!!!!!  I can't believe it myself.  I am soooooooo ready for this to happen!! 

YIKES!!!!!!!


Ok, until next time.....
