More medication please...

Well, my sister's wedding is done and over, so now I can fully focus on this TTC business. The ceremony was nice and the reception was a blast. Everyone looked amazing, especially my sister (who almost seemed to be glowing the entire evening). But I am getting ahead of myself, and this is a baby blog, sooooo..we had our RE appointment on Thursday. She told us that my uterus and tubes are all clear and ready to go. I also had to have an std swab and now everything on the checklist is done. As of today(CD22), I have still not ovulated (or detected a surge), so if I do not bleed by June 11th I will take another (unnecessary) blood test to determine I am not pregnant and then start the pro.vera to induce the period. Then I will start on the clo.mid, ultra sounds, and trigger shot.

We need to order our sperm, ASAP and have it shipped to the RE's office. We have been holding off, in hopes of being able to get a bulk discount, but I just don't think we are going to be able to scrounge up that kind of money, especially not after my sister's wedding. B's insurance does cover 90% up to a lifetime max of $5000, but we have to pay out of pocket first and then get reimbursed. So we will just purchase our one or two vials and see what happens.

With this wedding being over, I can now tell my sister about our TTC plans. She knew we were going to start trying, but she has no idea of what we have been doing. When she gets back from Jamaica, I will fill her in. We will still not tell my mother, until we are actually pregnant because she would be asking way too many questions and telling way too many people. Plus, it would ruin the huge surprise when we actually do get pregnant.

I leave you with one picture from the wedding. Most faces are indistinguishable, so I feel comfortable posting it. If you are my friend in real life, check out my my.space for more!

In other news, today is Motor City Pride and we are excited to go. It's not going to be too hot or rainy!
