Having a look around April 30th 2009

Ok so again i have been rubbish at updating, life seems to of gotten really busy!
April 30th was the day i had to have one more procedure before signing the consent forms for IVF. They wanted to go in and have a look around with a camera to make sure my uterus wasn't scarred or had anything that would hinder implantation of the embryos.
Well let me tell you now having strong pelvic floor muscles do nothing for women before child birth except tighten and cramp so much that your doctor cant get the camera in!!!!.
Now when i say camera i am talking fiber optic thickness but i would easily of thoight she was trying to ram a TV camera up there.
Lets just say hysteroscope procedures are not as easy as the doctors say they are!.
Anyway it was all done eventually and we got to see in colour (believe me at this point i was close to kicking her in the head) that my uterus is nice and clear and ready for babies - yey.

Once i climbed down off the ceiling we met with the nurse and she had us sign all the forms - basically stuff like we own the embryos and we will freeze any and if we want to get rid of them we will give written consent etc.
After this followed the timescale protocal with all the drug information
The drugs were ordered and off we went

Its so nice to know there is nothing wrong but we will still have to wait and see how the eggs and spermies perform. We are very lucky that our insurance covers an extra procedure called ICSI which means they actually pick a good sperm and inject it in.
