Okay. So I'm a research freak. Most of my long time TTC friends know that. I am also getting way too used to things being poked into my body and being examined by strangers.
So when you combine the need for research with my casual attitude towards being a human test tube, you get me, laying on my back in a dimly lit exam room, naked from the waist down ('cept my socks - less personal that way), with a doctor between my knees, poking a wand around my girly parts while I casually type away information he's giving to the nurse.
I think he heard the clicking. The doctor, I mean. Because he looked up and over at me and asked if I were recording the follicle sizes. I said yes, and he laughed. He then told the nurse to photocopy my information and give it to me. Hah! I love it.
I also took the time to beg for drugs during my appointment. My last egg retrieval had me moaning and groaning on the table, with a sympathetic nurse holding my hand. My doctor promised to make sure I had more than my fair share of drugs this time around, based on the amount of follicles that were developing.
