Last One

Yesterday we had our last appointment at the U of U, it was sad & exciting all at the same time. The doctors & nurses there were amazing! God forbid you have a fertility problem, but if you do, I recommend the U of U 200%. They helped beginning with step 1 to step 1oo. Answered any question or concern, laughed & cried with us, and were always comforting. We got to see our little "Egg Drop" yesterday! At six week it is the size of a grain of rice! Teeny Tiny! And we got to see what will become the heartbeat! Amazing!! I feel so blessed to have an ultrasound at 6 weeks! This is when most Mom's are finding out that they are prego! We have the ultrasound pic in a frame and will update it with each ultrasound.

We also found out that my ovaries are very swollen still. My left ovary is 4 times the size of when they did the egg harvest and the right is 2 times the size. So, I was told to take it easy and I can't do anything with any bouncing. Get your mind out of the gutter!!! No horseback riding, 4 wheeling, etc. We don't want my ovary to burst. Now the reason my ovaries are so huge is this; when you get knocked up your ovaries is what takes care of your little embryo. Once the placenta takes over between 8-9 weeks of pregnancy your ovaries are done doing their job. Well mine I working on overtime not realizing that they don't need to because we are doing the work for them with the daily Progesterone shots. Make sense?? That was new to me. So until week 8 or 9 of pregnancy, I have to take it easy on my ovaries.

So - in the end......I am still way tired. Not really sick; my tummy will get queasy here & there. My brain has shut off. I can't remember 2 minutes ago; that has become a problem. I write lists and forget I write a list, haha!! The charlie horses have started, better eat more bananas. No worries, I am still eating alot of Fiber. YUM! By the way - Fiber One Cereal, Yummy!!! I love it! That is about it. I hear this is the year for girls also!!
