6DPIUI And Starting to Go Crazy (Already!)
I am 6DPIUI and now that I am home from vacation, I am starting to go crazy! I just want to know!!!! Why does this time have to be so hard? I hate the 2WW! Wish I could be oblivious to it all. At least my week of vacation helped the first part of it to go by. Being away was FABULOUS - I did not want to come back! I have been bad today too -- although I worked out (yeah!), I was still a couch potato much of the day watching Season 11 of America's Top Model. It is one of my guilty pleasures when they play the whole season in one day. I was determined to enjoy my last day of vacation before going back to my crappy job tomorrow! And this week I have to get going on improving my resume, finishing our will, getting ready for Christmas and joining reality again. Fun, Fun!

IUI on Monday = )
It is official - my IUI is scheduled for Monday!! I took my last follistim shot last night and added in ganiralex for the first time too. And then I get to trigger this evening! I am excited that I am not facing another cancellation = ) I am a little nervous the timing might be off a little but am going to try to remain hopeful. The 2WW is the worst part for me but at least a week of it will be part of my vacation. I had yesterday off too and it was awesome! I told my husband that I could get used to not working... too bad that is not a possibility with all the IF treatments! I can not believe after getting my MBA and working so hard for 10 years, that I would rather not work! I feel so lazy when I say that but I think Corporate America has drained all of my career energy out of me with the horrible experiences of the last 6 months!
I am off to clean my house! Fun, Fun!

IUI/Injectable Cycle #3
It has been a little bit since I have posted last! I started injections last night for IUI Cycle #3 (technically #2 since last cycle was cancelled, but I am not really counting. = ) Injections have been easy so far --- hopefully the rest are too! I go for my first follie check on Saturday. I hope to see some progress! My hubby will be joining me since my appt falls on the weekend. We will go out for breakfast afterwards -- it is fun having a little date after my appt when we can = ) For some reason, I am much more hopeful this cycle. I am not sure why, but I am! I am at the sametime trying to remain realistic as I know the chances of working are low.
On another + note, we made reservations to visit my parents for Thanksgiving! I am very very excited! I have not seen them since June so it will be fun! And we were able to make it work while being able to go forward with the IUI cycle too! Hopefully it will help take my mind off the 2WW. On our way back, we will also have a night in downtown Chicago too! I did not think we would be able to have a vacation this year so this will be our mini-vacation! I look forward to Christmas shopping in Chicago!
Work still stinks, but I am trying to remember every time that I am down about it all that I am lucky to be have a job and that I am lucky as a result of my job to be able to afford IF treatments. Without my job, we would not be able to afford them! I just need to keep remembering this!! I still have dreams of finding a new job where I can be happy!!! Someday!!!!!
