Bachelor Draft Night

I have been back at work for two days and hyped up on medications.  Everyone at school has been incredibly supportive that know what I'm going though.  Kyle has just been amazing.  He understands completely what a big deal this is and jumps in and helps me anywhere he can.  Amanda and Sarah have been so sweet, asking me how I'm feeling as seeing where they can support me.

Last night we went to Amanda's for our bachelor draft.  I had such a bad headache from the estrogen but I was ok without baby aspirin.  I did freak out a little though while I was watching.  One of the contestants, Whitney, is a fertility nurse from Chicago.  Going into the draft I was thinking I was going to pick her because of just how wonderful all of the nurses have been.  I just wanted her to find love and for some reason I thought that if she was on my team she would.

They showed Whitney at work.  It said aparent on her scrubs.  I was bummed that it wasn't FCI.  Then they showed her walking down the stairs of the office building and it looked JUST LIKE the Highland Park medical center.  I searched aparent in my email and aparent is the lab that is handling our embryos!!!

Then I finally got to see her interact with Chris and it was super awkward.  I didn't think the connected so she moved from my top pick to my second choice.  I picked Becca first and was ready to pick Whitney at my next choice, then Beth swooped in and took her!  UGH!!!!


I changed my patches when I got home.  This time I tried putting them on my thigh like the nurse suggested.  OWWW  My leg started hurting like 20 minutes later.  It honestly hurt to walk or put pressure on it.  I think I'm going to stick to my stomach.

Tonight though I was given the best gift of all......
