Well contrary to what I thought yesterday....the cyst is GONE! wooot!
Today's appt. went great :) Thanks to those of you that gave your well wishes. Third times a charm!
The u/s tech was happily surprised to see that my monster cyst was gone. I thought I heard wrong when she said it but, it's gone! She said she remembered how big it was and said there was no way she could miss it if it was still there.
Yippie!
So I sat down with the nurse and she went over all the meds and gave me my schedule for the remainder of the cycle.
I'll start taking Clomid tonight(CD 3).
I'll take these for 5 days and then on CD 9 I get a shot in the belly. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to pull it off since the goal was to have Alexis do it but he'll be at work and it needs to go in between 5-9pm.
UGH!
3 days later on 10.22 I have my first monitoring appt. to check for follicle growth. If all is well then I should do the Ovidrel that day or the following.
IUI's are set to be B2B and should take place (god willing) the last week of this month.
I'm going to try to remain hopeful while not getting my hopes high. I've been really open about my IF struggles thus far but aside from my aunt and the readers of this blog, we've decided not to tell any other family members.
I figure the less people I tell the less people I have to tell if it doesn't work.
I really can't put in to words the million different emotions I'm feeling starting this leg of the journey. I thought I had an idea but I was wrong. I'm excited, scared, terrified, anxious.... I think I need a xanax. I'm trying to attempt to prepare myself mentally for the possibility that it might not work but I'm not sure that's even possible. I will just continue to pray!
Thanks again, SO MUCH to those of you that continuously send all the good, positive vibes and have us in your thoughts and prayers. It means more than you know!

Third time is the charm!:) I'm so happy that you can finally start. I've been praying for you since I saw that you had your apt today! Just continue to stay positive and calm (freaking out doesn't help your body). I'll continue praying and sending you positive vibes!:)
All I have to say is that I'm all smiles. Step by step, little by little . . .
This is great news, Justine!
I agree with Claribel...try to take it easy, all the stress and freaking out does not help this process at all!
<3
You know the Fiores are pulling for you!! We love you :)
I am very very happy for you! Definitely positive thoughts and don't stress to much. I wish you all the luck and continued prayers.
Woohoo! Finally IUI is on its way. Best of luck to you. That is the same protocol I follwed my last IUI... hope this is it for you two. ::postive vibes::
Oh that is so wonderful, I'm so happy the cyst is gone and will have all my fingers and toes crossed and as much positive baby vibes going towards you as possible. I can not wait for your big announcement hopefully after this IUI. Good luck!!
