Day 21...time to get poked and prodded!

It's that time again. I just got back from the doctors office and don't have a whole lot of time to post before I have to go to work. When I made today's appointment I never thought it would come, it seemed to take forever! And then all of a sudden it snuck up on me. Day 21 is my least favorite appointment...I would rather have an entire room of doctors looking at my lady parts (like they do on day 28-except it's only one doctor) than have blood drawn. The girl that's been doing it the past couple times is really good at finding a vein where they can get enough blood. I had a different girl today and she was not as good, better than some-but still had to poke me twice. I asked if I would get the results back today, she said she didn't want to promise anything so more than likely it'll be Monday before I hear anything. (Until then I'm going to be pulling my hair out.)

Fun fact- I've been charting my cervical position completely wrong the last two months! I was reading some stuff online about checking your cervix and one website explained it a lot better than my book. When you're charting you mark whether your cervix is low, mid, or high and then open or closed. I assumed that whole thing was talking about your cervical opening...NOPE! The low, mid, or high relates to your actual cervix. If it's low it's easier to reach with your finger. If it's high that means it's harder to reach. Hopefully I haven't missed an ovulation due to my charting error.
