Small Good Things (post-IUI)

1. Though I still don't know what exactly popped on my left the other day, I'm less convinced that I mis-timed this IUI. Other, uhh, bodily indicators of ovulation were right on today.
2. Either the andrologist had her math wrong, or the cryobank mislabeled its specimens and gave me an IUI in place of an ART. Because I ended up with the highest count I've ever had, by about 15 million total motile.
3. LG colored at the reception desk during the IUI and, I was told, behaved very well.
4. I didn't bleed. My last two IUIs I've bled more than I'm comfortable with. And I've been bleeding off and on since the hysteroscopy anyway. I told the nurse to go really slow and that seemed to do the trick.
5. How's this for a bit of bonding? I found out the nurse used IVF to conceive her own kid, and we talked about how she ended up working at the clinic. Well, she said, Dr. Gorgeous is such a sweetheart. Yeah, I'd agree with that one.
6. After all that, LG and I spent the afternoon at an outlet mall on the way back, getting a few things she needed for summer. She's currently parading about in her swanky new pajamas. I'm still exhausted, but at least not feeling pukey anymore. Here's hoping that starts up again in about two weeks...
