IVF Cycle 2

In my last post I gave you more of the medical junk as opposed to the details of whats happening to me. My husband had me cracking up because he wants me to tell about the shots you have to get of the progesterone oil in the butt.   I am waiting for my new list of medications for this IVF cycle.  I think I am going to have more babycicles after this session.  (Frozen Embryos)  The doc wants to try for more eggs which means this cycle will have more higher doses of all of the meds I shared with you earlier.  I am worried about side affects.  I have been reading all of this stuff about taking hormones and I don’t want to end up with some horrible sickness because of all of these medications.  In spite of the drama, I am happy.  So onward we go with my second IVF cycle.  Wish me luck.
