Another 15 things about my dog

Yes, you will keep being subjected to information about my dog.

  1. She goes up the steps in a bit of a zigzag pattern
  2. She can be very insistent when she wants her head scratched
  3. She NEEDS to be an only dog because she will get jealous
  4. She thinks she can fight fireworks
  5. While she seems to be mostly fine during a thunder storm, she does seek me out sometimes
  6. She has learned the usual places that I hide food for her scavenger hunts, so I need to get more creative
  7. She is gaining weight (this is good, she was too skinny)
  8. She will not abide nail cutting, not even for peanut butter
  9. Peanut butter is enough, however, to sustain her through a bath
  10. She is super friendly with people but not always with dogs
  11. She gets along best with older dogs and smaller dogs
  12. When she sees gum on the street, she sniffs it, scratches at it, and then pees on it...what a process
  13. I think she's starting to try play biting with me...at least I hope that's what it is
  14. Her summer coat is the softest
  15. I am lucky to have her

I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

Starting my parental journey, part 8

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here , read part 6 here , and read part 7 here . I have begun birth control again. Now, that may sound like I'm bailing out of my fertility journey, but it's actually the opposite. In order to get everything ready for the egg retrieval, I need to hop on birth control for a little bit and then hop off. It feels a bit odd to be taking oral birth control, have a birth control arm implant, and be getting ready for an egg retrieval--but that's how it goes (for me at least--getting to keep the arm implant is rare or so I'm told). People have asked me how I'm feeling about this round of egg retrieval and honestly, I haven't thought about it much yet. I am focused on a big stressful event for work and then C2E2 (Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo--basically, Chicago's Comic-Con) which I attend every year. Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
