woah!

Long time, no blog! Sorry. I planned on blogging earlier today but I've been sick from eating Easter candy. I usually don't each much candy so even a little bit will churn my stomach nowadays. 

On the fertility side of things, we've been going through the initial stages of IVF. You know: blood tests, paperwork and a water ultrasound. What's a water ultrasound, you say?? I thought you would never ask....

The Following is based on a true story

Once upon a time, there was a princess that went to her fairy godmother. 
Princess: Yo! I need you to take off this evil hex!
Fairy Godmother: Why? 
P:I want to make cute little princesses that look like me.
FG: Cool. I'm down. But we'll have to run some tests to see if you're ready.
P: I'm used to tests. Bring it on!
So the Fairy Godmother took the Princess to a small room with a bed. 
FG: Assume the testing position! (AKA Get those legs in the stirrups!) Me and my trusty assistant are going to look at your insides using this special magic mirror.
P: What are you looking at?
FG: We're looking at how your special nesting place is shaped.
P: Is this gonna hurt?
FG: You'll feel some pressure.
P: When will it start?
FG: We've already started.
Pretty soon, the Princess started to wet herself. This surprised for two reasons: 1) She couldn't control it and 2) it wouldn't STOP! 

After her meeting with the Fairy Godmother, the Princess received a some extra thick padding to prevent her wetting herself for the rest of the day.

So that's the story about a water ultrasound. Any questions?

P.S. Guess what! I'm immune to Rubella! Yeah!
