Gonal-F Cycle 1, IUI #2

Dale's specimen drop-off went smoothly this afternoon. Then, because I wasn't on planning to take a lunch break since I was leaving early, he surprised me by bringing me lunch. Yay for Smokey Mo's pork tenderloin sandwich!

We got to my appointment a few minutes early but they seemed to be busy and running behind. I think it was after 5:00 before we were called back. Dale had even fallen asleep in the waiting room.

Dr. Vaughn asked if I felt like I'd ovulated. I said I didn't know, but my lower abdomen had felt really bloated all day. He said that was probably it. My uterine lining had thickened some more and looked good to him. When he checked my ovaries, Saturday's 19.5MM follicle was gone, so it looks like I ovulated.

After shuffling me to another room, Dr. Vaughn did the IUI. We waited the requisite 10 minutes then checked out. We were sent off with two lab slips. On the 19th I have my progesterone level checked again. On the 26th I have a pregnancy test done, if my period hasn't started.

Waiting out the next two weeks is going to be tough.
