It’s 10.30 a.m. and I’m in bed with my heating pad on my abdomen. The pain has finally subsided and the bacon and egg croissant I ate between my reproductive system photoshoots is starting to wear off and I’m feeling hungry now.
I was not hungry an hour ago.
This morning’s sonohysterogram hurt more than the one I had about a year ago. Or, I simply forgot that one hurt. Or, it’s possible the pain level varies depending where you’re at in your cycle.
Again, not a damn thing artificial about the saline-filled balloon they inflate inside my uterus (which apparently has a tiny dip, though not enough to concern the Doc. We’ll call this normal. Your tubes are wide open, and we’re good to go, he told me, as he patted my shoulder kindly and left the room).
The cramping that caused my leg and foot muscles to tense up was real. I’m fairly certain an actual grimace was on my face.
It hurt like a mother…
Feeling slightly nauseated, I walked to my car, pain radiating down my thighs. Ladies, you know what I’m talking about.
Men, damn you.
As an aside, I’ve got to say, I hope this works sooner than later, not only for obvious reasons.
I’m gonna go broke paying for parking.
Conceiving Motherhood 
Not a big fan of bacon and egg croissants myself, but if things work out, McDonalds or whoever, they have an idea for a new marketing plan….
Would not tell Doug Ford what you’re doing, the philistines might not even be aware such procedures are available in Ontario….as nobody actually knows how little those guys now, it’s hard to get a handle on their level of ignorance….

Girl my heart is with you. I was hoping your sono wouldn’t hurt since your first time it didn’t but mine had me feeling like you did this time. Ouch ouch FUCK OUCH! It will be worth it but I know that doesn’t help.
