2w + 3d to wait

This morning was my post-IUI ultrasound. I was expecting them to draw blood, but apparently this wasn't necessary.

Looking at the u/s screen, I was a little confused. If I ovulated, what were those "things" I was seeing? Did I not ovulate? OMG!

Calm down. Apparently what's left are the "sacs" that the follicles released from. Okay, that's good to hear. Ultrasound doesn't tell the whole picture at this point, but it seems pretty apparent that they released. Yeah!

Today is 3 days past IUI and I got a much more diluted version of the hCG shot as a booster. Hopefully this will eliminate the bad reaction I've been getting to the full 10,000 units injected at once. Two more boosters are to be administered on 6 & 9 days after the IUI. So, that brings us to testing around August 18th. A full week after the last hCG shot. I'll be 17dpIUI.

How am I going to wait that long? Should I test out the last hCG? Relax...breathe...and keep yourself busy.
