A little Stressed???

Fertility treatment update:

Last week was my week of no shots.  Just patches and baby aspirin.  Yay.  My stomach is bruised and marked up and it's time for that to heal.  It was also nice to travel back home for my family's Christmas and not have to worry about keeping the Lupron shot cold. 

I had my ultrasound and blood work today.  Things look good and we are good to go for next Monday at 2:30.  My nurse was a girl I went through firefighter training with and she was one of my nurses last time, so it was fun to see her again.  Reality has set in though - bed rest for two days after transfer, walking only for the next few weeks after that, no kickboxing and of course, the standard recommendations for working out when pregnant.  And patches and booty shot through 12 weeks gestation.  I really dislike being pregnant.  I know, I know, it's worth it and I am excited to have a baby.  I do hope this works.

We encountered a hiccup today though that has me stressed!  Lately I haven't been able to get my act together.  Not working out, I can't keep up around the house, I just can't get organized.  So of course, payment and notarized consent form was due today.  I did realize the payment quote was off by $1K, so I emailed and luckily I was right.  She told me it was due today, but of course the front desk acted confused that payment was due.  WT*???  So then since we didn't get the form notarized and when I called this morning, they said I could bring it in and the nurses were notaries and could sign it and Chris could just swing by after work.  So I brought it in, was told to have the nurses sign it, the nurses told me the front desk would sign it and again, the front desk girl acted annoyed.  WT*???  So when Chris stopped in today to sign it, they noticed the number of embryo slot wasn't filled in.  So he said it was going to be 3, since that is what we were told would happen when we went through this with Brady.  The front desk said that isn't typical and they only do one at a time.  WTF.  Seriously.  Shouldn't they have told us this? 
They shouldn't assume that after three years, we should know if their procedures have changed or not.  Not only that, but I don't know if I can go through this two more times for a total of SIX times.  I guess I will be calling them again tomorrow morning!  And yes, I'm having a beer tonight because I'm stressed!!!
