For Those Still Tuning In . . .

Yup, this is me. I'm still being a great, big chicken. I'm 11 days past 3 day transfer, which means that I am 14 days past ovulation. And I'm still too chicken to pee on a stick. And it's too late to do it today, since it's too late for the whole "first morning" thing. And tomorrow is beta day, so there's really no use to doing it tomorrow.

I still have all sorts of progesterone symptoms which are doing nothing to help my state of mind. And I have to keep reminding myself that none of this means anything.

All day long I go back and forth from thinking that this did work, to thinking that it didn't. I don't get upset when I think it didn't work, I just plan my next line of attack. I research our next options. I research jobs for next year. And then I'm back to thinking that it did work and thinking about what life will be like then. I think about how I will be 11 weeks pregnant when the due date for the miscarried baby comes along. My head is a really exhausting place to be. Hence my afternoon naps and falling asleep during prime time TV.

So one more day, my friends. Hang in there with me.

  2. I have everything possible crossed for you! I'm going to remember your resolve in my EIGHTEEN DAY wait after my transfer. Yep - that is how long my clinic waits to do the beta - and they really don't want us to do any HPTs.

    I am hoping and praying that your Beta's come back so high you think" OMG, what if it's like quadruplets or something!!" LOL! Really though, I hope that tomorrow brings wonderful news your way!

    And thanks for being so sweet to me this month. It has been a crappy month but hopefully the methyltrexate will have resolved things and we can get on with it!
