I haven't felt like there's much to say. Not here. Not in real life. I'm really just feeling quiet. Biding my time. Counting the minutes until retrieval, which at this point is still just a guessing game.
We've made it through 4 days of stims so far. I'm holding up well, although that damn menopur sure does sting. I'm getting less of a headache now that Lupron has been cut in half. I go in tomorrow for bloodwork, which I'm hoping will shed some more light on the schedule for next week.
I had a great visit with my roomie this weekend. We went into Boston and just walked and talked, and walked and talked. For those of you who know Boston, we started in Back Bay, walked the full length of Newbury Street, through the Garden, the Common, Government Center, Faneiul Hall, past the Marriot on the water, all the way to the North End, and back to Hay Market, where we tool the T back to Back Bay to have dinner. I'm amazed that I didn't get tired. We hadn't seen each other in almost two years. so we had lots to talk about. I was able to tell her a lot about the IVF. It gets easier the more I do. Today, at lunch, I told one of my friends at work about the details. She's 32 and not ready for kids. I keep telling her not to wait much longer!
Other than that, Hubby continues to be amazing dealing with injections and horomores. We bought our anniversary present to each other last night...a new washer and dryer. Romantic, I know. But we really need stackables because our laundry room is too small. I'll have to post a picture so you can all have a good laugh. I've been saying for months that as soon as I'm pregnant, I won't be able to shimmy abround the dryer to get to the washer anymore. Anyway, we got a really good deal (complete with rushing to Low.es at 9:15 last night to catch the last day of a sale) so we're pretty excited.
But yeah, not too much going on. Work is a bit slower this week, just after a deadline. There's just not enough to distract me from watching the minutes tick by. At least, in addition to feeling quiet. I am mostly feeling peaceful I guess I'll take it.
Sorry for a boring post. I need to procrastinate for a bit at work, but there ended up not being too much to say!
yeah, this time of stimming is boring...you're not being monitored daily yet so there's nothing to report. I hope it continues to go well.

ReplyDeleteIt's ok to feel quiet sweetie, just let your body do it's thing and try to relax. Thinking of you :)
ReplyDeleteYour description of Boston makes me so envious! I have always always wanted to go there!
ReplyDeleteHey washers and dryers are super excited in the land of married- glad you got a deal :)

I love Boston! Not a boring post at all. I am glad you are holding up well too!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind that kind of holding pattern. I am hopeful things will pick up for you after retrieval.
