{ IVF Updates! }

I promised that I would get on tonight and give some updates! things have been so busy!! and crazy!! I have been so sick and so tired! So I really have had no ambition to do anything but sit in the bathroom on the toilet or head in the toilet or just lay in my bed and sleep! working full time, and straight home has been hard! do I sound like a baby? well I kind of have a right to be one! :)
 
So I started injection shots on April 25th, one a day in the morning and I stopped birth control on May 2nd! I was seriously having a party to be able to stop birth control! it made me crazzzzy! Things have been going pretty good! my stomach of course has been feeling really sore! I feel like my tummy is a punching bag and I got the crap beat out of me!
 
I started 3 shots this week, 2 in the morning, one at night...Lupron, Gonal in the morning, and Menopur at night. I have felt really different since starting these. Appetite has been really weird, stomach sore, headaches all day, sick to my stomach {diarrhea} TMI? :( but this is all worth it for our little miracle! we are getting so excited and nervous!!
 
Just a few things that I have been craving! weirdest thing ever! but I guess hormones can do that to you!
 
{Pop Tarts}
{Cereal}
{Strawberries}
{Mashed Potatoes}
{Starbursts}
 
Healthy right!!? Not! so far things have been going really good! and we are getting closer to being done! I do shots till the 18th, we have an appointment this Saturday in Pleasant Grove, Utah at 830 am, and three in a row next week, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday all in the morning for ultrasounds and blood work to see how my follicle eggs are coming along! we had an appointment last week and I had a total of 4, they say I will have up to 15-20 follicles by the time we are done with shots! so crazy!! and exciting! Here are a few updates and pictures of the amazing and exciting journey!

Team Baby Larsen!
