CD1

Today marks CD1 and an end to cycle 8

so much for our first IUI being a success.

This weekend was rough,

I started to feel sick to my stomach Saturday morning 

by Saturday evening I had a temp and couldn't

eat or drink anything. 

By Sunday at 11pm my fever would not break

so off to the ER we went. 

It was apparent upon my arrival that I needed fluids. 

They made 4 attempts to insert an IV before 

finally getting a good vein. 

Labs were run and the Dr. returned shortly 

to let me know my hcg levels were negative.

(I wasn't really surprised as I had been spotting that morning.)

By this point I had such a headache and severe stomach ache 

that I needed something for the pain. 

I figured I would get a few tylenol and take a nap 

while my fluids got to work. 

When the nurse returned with morphine and nausea meds 

I was shocked, but not refusing anything they were offering. 

The meds did the trick and I was asleep with in 5 minutes! 

when I woke up I had already gone thru two bags of fluid. 

I felt so much better! no nausea no stomach ache no headache! 

They gave me a script for zofran and 

sent me on my way around 6am. Scott still had to go 

into work at 9 so he dropped me off 

at my parents to spend the day resting. 

AF fully arrived today marking CD1...

We are now on to cycle 9 

and our second IUI

 Why wait? Right?
