Being matched was the simple part it felt like. Compared to what I was starting to experience in terms of patience. This was really testing my ability to tolerate the concept of time!! What was taking so long, we are matched, why am I not pregnant for them already? Geez! Then I received an email concerning travel arrangements to CT to be evaluated at a fertility clinic. Oh Joy! I was scared, all these questions started streaming through my head.
-What if there was something out of the ordinary in my insides?
-What if they didn't approve me?
-What would my IPs say if I wasn't approved?
There were tones more, but I will not bore you with the details. Lets just say I was an emotional wreck, concerned that I had made it thus far in the process just to be turned down because a doctor didn't like me inside. LOL They say they are supposed to like you for who you are in the inside. Well this doc better like what he sees or I'm going to be nasty on the outside. HAHA. Anyways I was supposed to fly out on the 22nd and be there thru until the night of the 23rd of Dec. My hubby was going to be my travel companion. Well the weather in NY decided to be a butt, and not let the airplane leave. So we rescheduled for the 28th of Dec, well that worked out all fine and dandy except for my husbands work schedule. GREAT, so I was going to fly into NY by myself and then drive my happy lil butt to CT.
Well I left and got to NY no problem. Only problem is, I am direction DUMB!!! Well I got to CT about 4 hours later, it was supposed to be a hour and half drive. I must have taken the scenic route. Lovely! So my advise to you, get that lovely piece of technology that they call GPS!!! Most rental care agencies will provide you with one for around 15 bucks. Not very smart of me. Got to my room finally and went directly to sleep. 5 hours later and unable to have slept the whole night, I got to the fertility clinic and was there for about 2 hours doing the medical screening. The Doc and his crew were wonderful!!! They made me feel very comfortable about the whole procedure. They were very personable.
They took some blood, did an ultrasound inside and out. Took some cultures of my uterus, and then showed me how to administer the meds that I was going to be taking to get my body ready for the pregnancy. The RN was very thorough in the direction of what I was going to be doing, how to do it and what order to take it in. 7 medications and a headache later, I left to go home to my family. 2 weeks later I received my drugs!! lol
