We started the injectables last night.
Picture a box with a gazillion mixing and injectable needes and lots of lots of vials of dry and liquid medications that needs to be mixed just so.
Last night we mixed three powdered vials with one liquid vial. Nadia is actually very good at mixing medication, but it was still very nerve racking.
In the grand scheme of things this is a minor pain in the arse.
Yesterday, Dr. Feelgood told me that my fibroids are growing. Unfortunately, the fibroid is attached to my uterus and could cause complications during pregnancy. If I don't get pregnant this time around, I will probably have to have surgery.
Ouch.
About Me
- Eva
- I am a thirty-something African American lesbian, queer, dyke with Caribbean roots in the hot pursuit of a pregnancy. I live with my partner, Nadia. About a year and a half ago the egg drop drama officially began. We had our very first visit with a reproductive endocrinologist, Dr. Feelgood. And now I am waiting a few months before I start my first IVF cycle.
What is the Egg Drop Post?
This blog is about a woman who fell deeply in love with a woman eight years ago. It's about a feminist who never believed in tradition. It's about a child of immigrants who never believed in the American Dream. And it's about a daughter who never wanted to be a mother. The Egg Drop Post chronicles how dreams are conceived with blood, sweat, and tears through the sands of time. This is my story but it could be your story too. Like the eggs in an hourglass, these are the days of our lives...

Yikes. Our meds (that is, Co's meds) came pre-mixed. I am impressed with the chemistry experiment you had to endure.
