The meds

August 31, 2012 Maria La Chica

So “D-Day” is approaching sooner than I thought… To be honest, it has only been 5 months since our original first appointment with the consultant. In a way it seems like a long time ago. On the other hand, it feels a bit unreal… like it is all happening so fast and sometimes I wonder whether I am ready…

On Tuesday next week I’ve got my appointment with Mr O’Sullivan where he will explain about the injections.. which ones to take and when, how to do it, and where, for how long, etc. The actual injections will be delivered to our house on Thursday (I won’t need them at the appointment with the consultant) and… wait for this… I will have to start doing the injections the following week!! Soon, eh?!

I am trying not to think too much about it at the moment. I am quite busy at work and that is actually helping me cope.. If I had plenty of time on my hands, I might be going a bit crazy with nerves, and I might even make the mistake of going online and searching for IVF stories. I honestly don’t want to know. I’ve already seen a photo, by mistake, of the marks that the injections leave on your belly and I am not looking forward to it.

So, yeah, I will try to get another update on Thursday next week, after having had my appointment with Mr O’Sullivan at the Hampshire Clinic and having received the meds.

School classes placements

July 11, 2017 By Maria La Chica Leave a Comment

So as I have mentioned before, I have always wanted the twins to be together in the same school class, and that was one of the reasons why we didn’t take Castle Hill Greenbank campus more seriously, as they have a policy of separating twins regardless of parent’s wishes. And I thought that everything was […]

Summer visit to Spain
