I start my Lupron tomorrow.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Ok, I just had to let that out. I’ve been bouncing around and squealing to anyone who will listen (Joe, my family and a few friends) since I got the call from my RE’s office. My progesterone test came back showing that I had ovulated, which means that my RE’s theory that I don’t ovulate is incorrect. Since my uterus is “beautiful” and ready for a baby, I’m hoping that our problem then lies with timing or the inability of our little guys to hook up.

My retrieval is tentatively scheduled for March 17, and the transfer likely will be March 20, which works out perfectly because that’s a Friday. I’ll have the weekend to rest and will only have to take those two days off work. This also means I’ll likely be pregnant on my birthday, but I won’t know it since my birthday is six days after the transfer. We’ll go in for a pregnancy test around April 5. I’m assuming they process those in-house, and Joe says we’re not leaving the hospital until we get the results. He says we’ll sit in the cafeteria and read for the day if we have to. He’s one excited soon-to-be daddy!

I’m super nervous. Since our problem isn’t male factor infertility, I have to hope that it’s a simple timing issue. I know male factor is much easier to fix, but since they say my ultrasounds look good, I have to believe that everything is good to go in there.

I have no idea how I’m going to make it through the next month. I’m glad you all are here for me to squeal too because I know I’m going to start annoying my parents at *some* point! Keep those good thoughts and prayers coming…I can feel them.
