So I had to go to the RE's office today for yet another b/w and u/s. It is a different place than the one that I normally go to during the week. When we pulled in the parking lot there were bunch of people standing outside of the building holding "PRO LIFE" signs. I don't know why but this irritated the crap out of me. I am personally pro life (with some exceptions...like rape) but I am not the protesting type. Nor am I one to put someone else down for their own beliefs.
I guess I understand why they do what they do, but its not like an infertility clinic is an abortion clinic. Go somewhere else and protest! I am sorry but I am TRYING to GIVE life not kill it. I am sure it has something to do with the fertilized embies that get used for science or destroyed - but not everyone that goes through infertility does that. And I totally took offense to the protesters.
I also don't think using your embies, eggs or sperm for science is a bad thing either. If it wasn't for science you and I may never have that chance of becoming pregnant! I am sorry I just had to get that off my chest....it really bothered me. Has anyone else ever seen protesters at their clinic?
Anyways.....I had 5 -12mm follies with 10 less than 10mm on my right and 2 -12mm follies with 8 less than 10mm on my left. So it seems like no more has appeared but there are a good 7 that are getting bigger!!! Yeah!! I am on the right track!!

I'm sorry for the added stress of the protesters.
ReplyDeleteThose follies sound good! Did they say anything about adjusting your meds?
I am still waiting for a call back from my nurse about my bloodwork...so I will find out later today!
ReplyDeletecongrats, that's exciting!
ReplyDeletethose protesting really seem to be at the wrong place, I totally support what you're saying!
Wow... that would really piss me off. I'm prolife also but I dont think that an IF clinic is the place to be protesting. What a bunch of crap. Obviously people going to an IF clinic aren't there to abort their babies. Grrr.. I'm excited about your follie growth! Your ER will be here before you know it!
ReplyDeleteMaybe those protesters were a little confused.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're follies are growing though! I hope those people aren't hanging around next time you go!
That is so weird about the protesters! I can't even imagine. It sounds like your cycle is going great, though!! :)

Grow Follies Grow
ReplyDeleteI would think there are better places for pro-lifers to protest (if they feel they must) than an RE office. Grrrr.
ReplyDeleteI'd have been tempted to scream "I'M TRYING, DAMNIT! GET OFF MY CASE!!"
Yay for great follies! And what idiots. I am pro-life too, but that is nuts to protest outside a place trying to CREATE LIFE!!
