So its Monday again.. how does the weekend always go by so quickly?
I did actually have a good weekend. I worked on Friday, but it was with people I like. Then Saturday I got to sleep in a little and and had a pool day with friends. It was exactly what I needed. Things almost unraveled apart, but I stopped worrying and just laid my butt on the chair under the sun. It was great. It was the kind of great where you fell asleep it was so relaxing. I also went by the doctors/pharmacy to pick up my 4 per-scrips for the next cycle! I was nervous waiting in line. And my hands were shaking as I went back to the car.. .like this is really happening. I haven't yet opened the bag up, its still sitting on a shelf in my foyer. Maybe I'll open it today, and read everything. I am still unsure of the whole process and I hope when I go in for my 1st monitoring, they'll explain more.
I plan on writing maybe a little more often, maybe short and sweet post's to document my experience while on clomid, the needles, etc.
Then Sunday I worked all day. I had great intentions of getting a lot done in the afternoon, but I was so tired. The kind of tired where I was to tired to actually fall asleep and take a nap. So the DH and I just watched TV all night long.
So, nothing much new to report. Today I'm CD18, 6dpo. Remember I have short cycles, anywhere b/t 23-25 days. the last three cycles, its been 24 days. Both Saturday and Sunday I had a little bouts with an uneasy feeling, almost sick.. sometimes a little dizzy. And small but noticeable cramps here and there. When I think about it, I'm checking the boobs out to see if there is any pain or soreness.
I've made a decision to take a test on Thursday (CD21/9dpo). That will be 2/3 days before expected period, and last cycle I took it on 9dp and my period showed up three days later. It's also the day before DH and I go to the beach for the day. So, Thursday it is. If its positive, then Friday will be a day of celebration, and if not - then it will be a day to relax and gather my thoughts for the next cycle coming up - our 1st treated cycle.
I'm not really expecting anything, and I may not even be pregnant. But I also can't just 'wait and see' either. But as each cycle passes, I'm getting less and less 'expectant,' and more of waiting it out.
My mind is really still stuck on, day by day mode. Which is fine with me. I find myself rationalizing why I'm having cramps or feeling unwell. Maybe Its the progesterone I'm using (left over from pregnancy #1, side effect is cramping), and maybe I'm feeling unwell b/c I've been standing on my feel all day.
But I do have a story to tell! On Sunday at the grocery store, I had three separate people in my line. I ended up getting into a conversation about baby making with an older lady, and somehow get onto the topic of her being a twin. Then the guy behind her is like "hey your a twin? So am I!" and the then girl behind HIM said, "I am too!"
WHAT are the chances of that???? Three sets of twins in a row, coming through MY line??!!!?? So I told them all to rub my hands for good luck on my next treatment. haha!!
AND.... its in my family, every other generation there is a set of twins. I can't even tell you how blessed I would be if that were to happen. I can't even begin to imagine a world with two babies.
Welp, that's about it. I need to get moving on getting things done this week so Friday can be a true day without worries.
Accepting all good vibes and prayers this week as I try and wait it out and I'll be doubling that effort back at'cha!
