Secret Weapon

A couple day ago, I got a private message on F@cebook from a family friend. She wanted me to know her husband was going to drop something off for me at my mom's house. I went and got it yesterday morning. In the bag was a beautiful note. The bag also held a beautiful item. It is now my secret weapon in my journey through infertility.
She has loaned me a handcrafted, authentic "African Fertility God". I am excited to see if it brings good things this month. Now, don't get upset thinking that I am going to be worshiping false idols or other gods. It is just a unique wooden carving that has special meaning to the culture that created it. If it can bring several miracles to three women, why not carry it with me to my procedures?
I took it with me today to my Day 12 Ultrasound. It stayed stashed in my purse. The appointment went really well. I had two HUGE follicles on one side and one decent sized follicle on the other. By huge, I mean they were 22mm. Anything over 19 is good. After the ultrasound I got a "atta girl" from the doctor...like I can control how many follicles develop and their size. The nurse came in and gave me my trigger shot of HcG.
So that means tomorrow and Saturday mornings are the big days. Please pray for good results on this round. I realized later this afternoon that I had a question about a medication and called the doctor. A couple weeks ago, I thought the doctor had mentioned I would start taking progesterone a couple days after my insemination. Well, he never mentioned it again and I thought if I was supposed to be taking it, I was going to need a prescription...STAT! The nurse told me that they usually don't prescribe progesterone until you are pregnant, but she would ask the doctor. If she was incorrect, she would call me back. Not five minutes later, low and behold I got a return phone call. He said he was fine with me starting progesterone this Sunday, and not waiting until I got a positive home pregnancy test. Tomorrow and Saturday mornings I have my procedures. Sunday night, at bedtime, I start taking progesterone. And then the two week wait starts. These next two weeks are going to drag...
Please continue to pray for me, Scott, and the doctor to execute these procedures flawlessly.
