Today was my fifth day of stimulation medicine and I am starting to feel the effects.  Surprisingly I’m not moody or bitchy – just bloated, cramping, and back pain – all normal side effects of the medication.  I go back to Valley tomorrow morning for monitoring and to check the progress of the follicles.  Brian and I have the med’s down now – every night at 10:00 PM we prepare them and I inject myself.  Brian alcohol swabs all the tops and my stomach, he preps the needles and disposes them – he’s been a big help and I’m happy he is here to be a part of this process 🙂  I went to the gym tonight, was feeling tired and had a little bit of a headache, but I actually felt better after breaking a sweat.  I can’t go crazy at the gym – no running, no heavy lifting, and no twisting or crunches – not easy for me to do but I must follow doctor’s orders.  Getting ready to hit the sack or going to attempt to fall asleep – Layla’s butt is in my face and she has the most horrific gas tongight!!!! Sweet dreams xoxoxoxoxoxoxox
