9 Weeks Pregnant

 This week I am being weaned off of my progesterone shots!  Down to 1/2 ml each morning at this point and I should be able to stop the shots this Saturday.  The estradiol 3 times a day will continue this week and then drop to twice a day and the lovely suppositories continue.  

I had my first migraine this week unfortunately and was up an entire night trying to deal with the pain without my drugs of choice.  I talked to my OB and was able to get phenegran in addition to 1000 mg of Tylenol at a time to try. Apparently Excedrin migraine is also okay to use if needed. She also started me on 400 mg of magnesium a day. I am hoping that these help.  

I am looking forward to my 10 week appointment with my OB this Friday.  It's finally time to leave the Reproductive Medicine and Surgery Center of VA and head to the Women's Center on this side of the mountain.  It's hard to leave a place that I've called home the last two years.  The constant visits and emails and phone calls with Dr. Williams and Stephanie make it hard to move on!  We will be forever grateful for all of their help during this journey! 

And, those gray skies are from Hurricane Florence!
