Sonogram - Day 10

Today was the day of my Sonogram. Dess trully believed she saw a baby, I keep telling her it isnt possible, being that we havent inseminated yet. She is too cute, all excited and stuff.

For those of you who may be asking, "Why do you need a sonogram?" The sonogram is in place to detect the size of my eggs. In the sonogram, they are hoping to get an egg in size of 18 or better. My biggest egg was 17.9, which is GREAT. This all means we have working eggs, the nurse actually gave us an A+.

We received instructions to begin testing my urine with an Ovulation Kit, which they recommended we use OVUSponse. Which we decided against, we are going to use First Response, since I am familiar and comfortable using this kit. Tonight we are only to test one time, but tomorrow and the days after we are to test twice a day, until we get a positive. Once the test reads positive, we are to call the center and make a same day appointment. The center will then run a blood test to make sure that my test was positive. Once the blood work reads positive, we will then come back the same day to inseminate. Then their is a two-week waiting period, I think I will start to loose my mind during this time.

I am trully excited and a bit overwhelmed. I feel like their is SO much pressure on my body. I am thirty-two and I keep wondering if my body is capable of conceiving a child at this age. Dess keeps telling me not to worry about, but how can I not?
