Katie had a really rough night last night.  She was very anxious trying to go to sleep and finally drifted off only to be up again at 3:00 am.  Her heart was racing and she had pain in her legs that was new and concerning.  She was up for about 3 hours before being able to get back to sleep for a little bit.  I felt really bad for her.  It’s one of those situations where you want to help in some way, in any way, but there isn’t anything you can really do.    She was back up again at 7 am, took her shots like a champ, we got the kids off to school and then rushed over to our daily appointment with the doctor.  They did another ultrasound to check the follicle development in her ovaries and were able to identify 6-7 that were coming along nicely.  I told Katie that all we need is one, so 6-7 is more than enough.  She scoffs at my optimism at times, but until proven wrong I’m sticking with it.  After the ultrasound we met with the doctor to discuss how Katie had been feeling and he validated her anxiety as he said the process causes many women to be anxious.  Then, they told us to come back tomorrow and sent us on our way.
