Hey ya'll. Today was a BIG day. I went to see Eliza and my fantastic Nurse Irena at Palm Beach Fertility Center who started my injections today! I had my ultrasound first (you have to have one of these every time you go) then Irena gave me my first shot (showing Phil how it's done so he can give me my shots for the rest of this week) then Irena and Eliza went over in detail how to give myself the shots for the rest of the week!
I was worried it would be overwhelming... but they had everything pre-bagged with directions and explanations! Phil will be giving me the shots at night every night this week. Hope he was paying attention - LOL!
Now the shots I am taking this week will speed up the production of my eggs. They want my body to make as many eggs as possible this week and next week. Every time I go into the office this week they will do an ultrasound to see how the eggs are maturing and blood work to check my hormone levels. If something is off they will adjust my meds as needed to get me on track! The next 7 days will be interesting!
All weekend I was a bit nervous about starting the shots - but again my worries were wasteful as Irena and Eliza and Dr. Denker took great care of us and made everything feel smooth and positive! I cannot imagine having to go through this process with any other team! They truly go the extra mile to make all their patients feel clam, relaxed and informed. I could not ask for anything more. SERIOUSLY!
If you are reading this blog and you are having trouble conceiving - please trust me and call Dr. Denker (ask for Eliza Roberts) and set-up a consult. It will not hurt you to just meet with the team at Palm Beach Fertility Center to see if they can help you.
So this Friday I go back and see if the meds are working! I will update you Friday as to what is happening. We are on the home stretch now.... only two weeks and we will have our egg retrieval and transfer! We are so close!
Peace,
Jennifer
