Wearing heels to the doctor..

June 25, 2010 by heatherss 2 Comments

Hi folks!

After yesterday’s very positive post, I woke up this morning at 4am with a feeling of deep anxiety. And I couldn’t shake it. After having been through five “are they ready yet?” scans I was having some serious doubts whether my follicles would ever be ready…

Anyway, as the time passed and Brett left for work, I decided to tap on this using EFT and my Adrenal Glands mp3 (yip, the ones that produce adrenalin) (you can get it here: http://healwithheather.com/shop.htm) and started to feel a bit more balanced and positive.

But I still had this feeling that my follicles might not be ready.

So, in an effort to feel more in control, I took out my high heeled boots. There is something about wearing heels that makes me feel more powerful. I wear them on certain days when I feel I need more of a lift. Although being a Grade One teacher, it’s not that often because the job requires being on your feet a lot.

So off I went (click, click, click)..

And the traffic was heavy.. and I was late.

Anyway I get there. “Mrs Heather Step!” the doctor said.

“Me again,” I said. (He must be sick of seeing me. But shame, he is so sweet, he took a scan of me on a public holiday and he is coming in on a Sunday to do my IUI – what a nice guy).

Anyway he got out his gadgets and put them up my most initmate of places. The thought running through my mind was: my follicles are growing just as fast as they can. And that’s ok.

Well what do you know.. he measured them and he was happy with them. And he liked my uterus lining too. Whew!!! And another injection. This one is called pregnyn. (I think). It is supposed to “trigger” me.

So now we are all set. The next two days are IT. 8am sperm place, 9am doctor. both days.

Please pray for us!

Thanks!

    Did he like your boots?

    I know how you feel regarding how what you wear can empower you. For me, I know if I have on great lacey undies/bra that it boosts my confidence and sense of authority at meetings. Stupid, I know but it works for my head.

    Glad everything is looking so great. Happy triggering!
