A month of gratitude: day 5

Every other Monday, throughout our entire pregnancy, I have woken up early and to drive 30 mins for a 10 second blood draw.

A blood draw where, even after being an old pro at blood work from all our years of IF, I still have to turn my eyes away.

The blood draw that I then take and ship to Omaha so that PPVI can monitor me for my progesterone.

Today, as much as I don't like waking early and driving 30 mins and getting poked, I am SO thankful for this extra monitoring.
