My IVF #3 journal:
CD 1: I got AF today. I expected it yesterday but I'm just happy I got it on a Friday instead of the weekend, which would have caused a bit of extra stress. When I called the RE clinic to tell them it started, for the first time in my infertility history, I got immediately connected to a human being! I didn't have to leave a voicemail and hope someone would call me back! The coordinator explained my next steps and I got to ask questions. You don't even know how happy that made me! Next up, lab work and bcp's.
CD 4: I did my CD 3 lab work this morning (my CD 3 was Easter and obviously the lab wasn't open). They drew TSH and estradiol to check my levels before proceeding. I've never had any issues before so I'm assuming my hormones are fine now too. I start bcp's tonight!!!
CD 9-11: Holy mother of all boob pain! BCP's can suck it! Seriously, I'd be OK with breast tenderness IF I was pregnant, but I am clearly NOT! This is so NOT COOL. Only 15 more days until I can stop! I've ordered a Baltic Amber necklace and I'm hoping it can ease some of my Fibro pain and maybe as a bonus it'll help my girls too...
CD 12: I decided to "organize" my fertility meds box again. Sheeshhhhhhh, who needs 150 two inch 18 gage needles! I think I have just as many 20 gage needles too. I did find five boxes of progesterone so maybe that will come in handy. No person needs that many needles...I wish I could donate them to another infertile like me. I did have a thought that if the world goes to crap I could be a needle supplier. Hey, you never know.
