Progesterone shot #32 and I’m sure sis-in-law is relieved that this is the last one that she’ll have to administer. She did a great job this week and I’m so thankful that my in-laws are so supportive. Tomorrow, she’ll accompany me to my doctor’s appointment along with mom-in-law since Hubby will not be present. I tried to convince them that I’m perfectly fine driving myself to the doctor — and have done so countless times over the course of the past two years since I’ve started the IVF process, but they insisted. In fact, she took the day off from work just for the occasion. Sis-in-law #2 will meet us after work for a girls’ night out. It’ll be a fun time!
My butt is getting larger by the day as the oil that contains the progesterone accumulates in the muscle. Previously, the sensitivity and swelling was going sideways (making my hips wider), but now it’s moving toward the middle — which makes sitting back in a cushy chair a painful endeavor. I’ll definitely need to have the doc look at the injection sites and make sure the symptoms I’m experiencing are in the zone.
Asking for your prayers for tomorrow’s ultrasound. The doc will be checking for the fetal heartbeat(s). Big day!
I’ve discovered a new daily addiction and it’s called Discount Coupons Guide. It’s a resource that compiles great deals, online coupons, and free offers — all in one place.
I love to receive free stuff, so I check the site daily for the latest. And, you should too, since there are usually only a limited number of offers available. If you wait too long, you might miss out. If you’re a Twitterer, you can follow freebiesguide to see the latest offers right in your Twitter timeline!
This isn’t a commercial, but a champuru recommendation. The site is maintained by a friend, so I can feel good about passing on this information to you, knowing that the offers are legitimate and the site is clean. I’m a leery netizen, so I don’t frequent sites offering stuff too good to be true, but once in a while you do get a free lunch. And this is it. So, go check it out.
Here’s another tip for you…
Whenever you sign up for anything, you get put on someone’s e-mail list — which makes you vulnerable to unsolicited e-mail. If you’re averse to spam like I am, I recommend establishing a separate e-mail account (Gmail, Yahoo, etc.) for the sole purpose of registrations, offers, etc. This helps keep your personal e-mail account spam-free.
