Everything seems to be going well.
The HCG shot made me a little strange and dizzy. I was just very uncaring about trivial things... like work, hah. But that feeling went away after about a day.
On day 14, I experienced some pretty obvious ovulation pains, almost all day long, on both sides. So I knew exactly what was going on in there.
Now it is 4 days past ovulation, and I haven't really noticed any big symptoms. I have had some cravings for certain foods, but I've been trying to eat higher protein and lower carbs, so that is probably why I've been craving some things. Actually, my biggest craving was for dairy, like milk and ice cream.
I've been having a little twinge in my right ovary-area today. Should be too early for any implantation, but just a feeling worth mentioning anyway. No sore boobs or anything like that. Anything I'm feeling will probably be related to higher levels of progesterone than I've experienced previously.
Speaking of progesterone, I go in on Wednesday to have a blood test to check my progesterone levels. I know their much higher than before, but we need to find out if they're high enough (meaning, higher than 20). If they're not over 20, they will give me progesterone suppliments to help support a possible pregnancy.
If there are the beginnings of a baby somewhere inside of me, right now he is just a little ball of cells - possibly as many as a few dozen cells already - bumping and rolling along my fallopian tubes. Little fibers are back and forth, pushing my little baby-ball along, towards my uterus. I feel like perhaps I should not jump around or move too abruptly, so as not to send the little guy off course. Oh, but that's just being silly!
