I was a little disheartened when I saw who would be the u/s tech. She is a squat woman with frizzy red hair and wears pale lipstick with very dark lip liner. It's a very bizarre look, but she is generally nice. The problem is that she always has trouble finding my right ovary. I had to explain my UU, confirm that I do in fact have both ovaries, and confirm that my thick lining is okay.
The search for my wandering ovary was, yet again, awful. After a few minutes of severe discomfort and pushing down on my abdomen she decided to pull out the regular u/s wand. Using that she was finally able to find it quickly. This might be TMI, but I found it to be incredibly weird/funny at the time. While using the regular wand she left the dildo cam inside me. All I could think about was "what if it falls out, will it just shatter all over the floor?". Luckily it stayed put and she finished up a few minutes later.
After lunch I got the call from one of my favorite nurses. It seems like the sharp pains I felt around my right ovary was indeed growing pains. My right ovary had two follicles measuring 15mm and 12mm. Lefty also had a 12mm follie. According to my b/w I should be ovulating very soon so it is go time tonight and tomorrow.
I was really worried about not responding well to Clomid. I do wish the larger follicle was on the left ovary, but pregnancy stories of eggs traveling over to the other tube keep my spirits up. As mentioned in a previous post, Baltimore is a very special place for Dave and me. Conceiving our rainbow baby there would be a hell of a story.
