Whew. So the meds this month have made me a nut job, an emotional basket case. I think it's the meds, plus undefined anxiety about not getting pregnant so far. Cbj and I got into a tussle not last night but the night before. Cbj's hip is acting up. Sincing turning 44 on April 14, cbj has been injured with sore hip muscles.
Well, tomorrow is the big day, we've got our appt to have the ultrasound and see if the eggies will be ready on Fri or Sat... Why do we always get stuck straddling the weekend?

Cycle Day 8
I will now refer to my partner as cbj, to avoid confusion.
Cbj is just as stressed as I am about money, but last night said to me, "This time you will not mention the IUI afterwards, you will not obsess over it, you won't mention it, we are just going to pretend we had lots of sex this month and we will have to wait and see if we are pregnant, and I don't want to hear a word until you tell me your period is late."
Makes very good sense, and I agree, it's healthier then checking my underwear every five minutes for two weeks, and yet I have to say, easy for you to say. I can't help it. I suppose if my IUIs were free, then I don't think I'd be as bad, but $$$ is involved, and I feel like I need to pay attention!
I am going to try my best. Can't wait for appt on Thursday...

Cycle Day 4
Well, today we start back on the meds. Argh. They make me crazy! Dear god in heaven I pray this one will take. Partner is weary. I am exhausted, and we are beginning to turn ambivalent.

Cycle Day 3
Yippeeee!!!!
We are officially back on the horse. I think that's what they call it. I called my doc yesterday, and for the first time (here we are on our 6th IUI) we are NOT doing a baseline ultrasound. It's kind of weird not to have that initial invasive procedure, but it's nice to save the money, since insurance PAYS NOTHING CHEAP BASTARDS!!!!
We have an appt not this Thurs but next for another glorious vaginal ultrasound to see if these eggs are in the game.
I can't forget to pick up my meds today!!!
Yesterday was the partner's B-Day. We'd been celebrating all week, (I give gifts for several days) and going back to humdrum is difficult. Also, I am tired. I have been tired for a week now, and can't figure out why...
