Yesterday's Appointment

Hello all.  I have been pretty busy so I am just now able to update you all about my appointment in Houston yesterday.  I am very excited to report that all went very well!  Yay!  We actually had a great time too!  Tony and I headed out about 8-8:30 yesterday morning and actually made it to Houston in just about 4 hours.  Maybe we made such great timing because I was so excited to be meeting up with Mark & Misty for lunch this time.  Great motivation for making the trip!

So, the four of us meet at The Yardhouse for a yummy lunch before my appointment.  After lunch Mark had to leave, but Misty was able to accompany us to the clinic.  While waiting in the waiting area we decided to take some pictures to document the day. 

But... Before I show the pictures let me update you on the appointment.  My u/s showed that my lining is still holding strong at 12+ mm.  Yay!  Off to have my b/w to check estrogen and progesterone levels. 

All is well... progesterone is low (which is good) and estrogen was 772.  Awesome! 

So, that was it.  After Misty and I visited for a few minutes with our NC (nurse coordinator), Barb, it was back to the parking garage.  We only got to see each other for a couple of hours, but it was great!  Misty and  I always have such a great time together whether it is having fun at a party, or just hanging out in a waiting room.  And, of course, Tony and Mark just roll their eyes and think we are silly! 

Don't think we don't see you boys!  We know you think we are crazy!

So, next on the agenda is Misty having an u/s tomorrow morning to check her ovaries and b/w to check her estrogen.  After her appointment we should have a better idea of when exactly ER will be.  Of course we are still shooting for March 1st (5 days away!), but it could be just a couple of days later.  Either way you look at it, I could be pregnant with mini M&Ms in just 10-12 short days!  Whoa!

So....


Getting so excited!


Yeah, we're dorks!
