College degree - check, job - check, husband, masters degree, check, check. Baby - ... Infertility - check, miscarriage - check, check. Everything in my life was in perfect order until we began our quest to have a baby. Follow my journey here as I grapple with the shocking reality that I am not in control of all things.

Almost half way
I'm almost half way through the two week wait - i think it helps that my wait is not quite two weeks this time. Dr. K scheduled for me to go in next Monday (two weeks from the day of my trigger shot), so technically, we are going to be waiting a little less than two weeks. Ok, let me tell you, I don't know if it was the numerous follicles, or having some of the follicles manually ruptured, but I have had SO much pain and soreness in my ovary / uterus region. Like it was hurting when I did anything, sat down, stood up, went to the bathroom! It has definitely improved (otherwise I was close to going back to the doctor), but I am still not 100%. I started the prometrium suppositories last night. My outlook has been all over the place, middle of the week, i was feeling really pessimistic. Just feeling like there was just way too much medical intervention for it to actually work. However, yesterday and today I have had some mild cramping that has given me a little more hope. And of course, I have the problem of not knowing if I really have symptoms, or if it's from the HCG shot or from the Prometrium. Such a crap shoot! I have a really busy week ahead of me, so I am hoping that the next 8 days will fly by.

Ugh, the 2ww sucks! Maybe you have mild OHSS? I had ovary pain throughout the 2ww last time as well.
