Butt Shots and Patio's

I went back to check my old posts to find out how long it took for the shot to induce a period last time. The answer? 6 days. That's a whole hell of a lot better than the 2-3 weeks it takes to do the provera/prometrium thing. I'm glad we went that butt shot route instead. One time I took provera and didn't get my period until 2 weeks after my LAST pill. Ugh!

Speaking of the butt shot...my whole left buttcheek feels like it's one giant bruise. Just thought you should know. =)

I seem to be a lot less stressed with this new doctor. I know exactly what's happening with my guts and know what to expect. With the last doctor, he would perscribe the clomid and send me on my way...no monitoring. Then he told to call either with a period (only got it once on my own with the clomid) or with day 35. So that whole time, I had NO idea if it was working, if there was hope of getting pregnant. You see, a KEY element of getting pregnant is ovulating. Kiiiiind of a biggie. So to not know whether I was or not was really hard on me. I never had much luck with OPK's.

In other news, I think I may try and finish gutting my garden of last years dead plants. I'm so close to being done, but getting that last little bit done seems to be a lot more difficult than it probably should be. Also, I have been working on clearing up and cleaning out our back patio. It has gotten to be a little bit of a mess over the fall/winter. So here is my goal:



This was my patio last year. I didn't have my big planters out yet...but this is the general idea. I never thought I would be able to geek out over patios/gardens. Ha! I'm hardcore...

kbye!
