You Could Say it Wasn't One of my Smartest Moments

So yesterday was a rather long day. After school I had a dentist appointment which really is one of my favorite places to go. Honestly! I think the day of the dentist is the only day of the year I am grateful not to be pregnant. Yes I know! Could you guess why! Of course the GAS. I flipping love it. It's like I am floating on air. My dentist is my cousin and I honestly he thinks I have a drug problem.jk So I was there for a good hour and half thinking life was pretty great. One thing I do not like about it though, is I start to get a headache after too long. But it's definitely worth it. Brian Abrams is our Dentist and his office is in Murray. We absolutely love him to death. If anyone needs a dentist, let me know!!!! :)

So let me know explain why I title my blog this today! So when I got home from the dentist I spelled this strange gas smell in my kitchen and laundry room. The smell smelt like it was coming from laundry room where my electric stuff is at as well. I totally panicked! I knew it was natural gas, but smelled like gasoline. Like someone had pored gas in my washer and dryer. Honestly it was so bad. So can you imagine what I did, yes I freaked out and called three different neighbors to have them come check out the problem. First Brad Fears wasn't home, next Pace McColluch didn't answer his phone, and finally Cameron Teeples answered. Thank heavens. So frantically I asked Cameron to come over and check it out. He came over and checked everything. We had no idea what was going on. Cameron remodeled our kitchen so kinda knew what was going on with that kind of stuff. So he left and called Mike Harden to come check it out. About after an hour of sitting in my car with my two puppies dying of heat, because I didn't want to start the car encase it would like blow up my house. So I sat on my iphone googling reasons why my laundry room might possibly smell like gas. I was totally freaked out. I had no idea what was going to happen. I was starving and very impatient. I couldn't go in the house bc I was reading to stay away from house because of lots of possible dangers. So after an hour or prob longer Mike showed up. He went into the laundry, impressed with the strong smell and asked me one question, where is your gas tank. So we went out into our shop, and yep he knew it! I had spilled the gas container. The smell had floated through my doggie door into my kitchen and through the tiny slits into my laundry room. Ha! Wow if only I had a brain. So the rest of the night I opened all the doors and windows and sat there and aired out the room. I was starving but afraid it could have contaminated my food, ha what food. I leave in a week and a half for Knoxville!!! whoaa!!!!!! I can not wait!

Alright so my fertility date of IVF has changed, I now start on July 15th with a baseline ultrasound. We are checking to see if the uterus is clear of tissue and ready to go. AHHHHHH I hope it is! So then about 8-12 days I will inject FSH Follistem into my stomach. The shots really are not that bad. I am pretty used to it! All I do is close my eyes and quickly just stab my pinched tummy. Twist the knob and well I'm done!!! So since my body is pretty sensitive I am guessing I will only be taking shots for eight days. After another ultrasound to see if my eggs are ready to go, they will trigger me with an hCg shot to make my eggs ovulate. Then in 36 hours the doctors will put me to sleep and get ready to catch all my many little eggs. We are hoping to get as many as we can. After they catch them they will need the sperm to mix with them. Then they will watch them for 3-4 days to see how they are growing. Next they will implant hopefully two of them back into me and we will just wait and see. Two weeks later we will know if they took and held on to my uterus. It's a lot more complicated than that with lots of medication and procedures, but I'll explain that as I am going through the process. Currently I am taking a prescription called metformin. It's not a lot of fun, but suppose to help me not over stimulate my eggs. So yes, it's worth all the nasty gassy, bloated side effects.Anyways enough for today!

Thanks to all of you who have commented. It gives me hope and encouragement everyday! I love all of you so much! Thanks for caring!
