IVF ROUND 7
DAY 2-4
(Tuesday Oct 22 – Thursday Oct 24)
Meds: 300iu Gonal-f , 150iu Menopur
Days 2 and 3 were anti climactic as usual. I haven’t done shots yet today but I believe I’m feeling some bloat sitting here with my legs curled under me. Either it’s IVF bloat or it’s the giant mountain of Chinese food I just ate.
Little Lucky is staying over at his grandma’s tonight because he goes with me to school and I don’t want to have to wake him up at the ass crack of dawn to go with me for the 2hr journey and I also am not too keen on bringing a child with me to my IVF clinic. I’m extremely grateful that I have someone to watch him during this time. I know not everyone is this lucky. I wonder now about all those women who I side-eyed at the clinic who brought their kids to appointments. I’m sure most of them felt tortured about being “that person”. I wonder if most of them simply had no choice. I’m just grateful that I have a choice with this.
It’s shots and bed time soon. Can’t believe tomorrow will pretty much be half way.
Emotional: Just taking it one day at a time
Physical: Haven’t been to training all week and skipped dance today. So, bleh-ish
Food: Mountain of Chinese food.
Yeah I remember sometimes seeing women with kids waiting for at appointments at my clinic and thinking how insensitive they were but who knows what the full story was.
I can’t imagine trying to look after a toddler while dealing with all the IVF shots and hormones btw, so well done for juggling that side !
Thank you! I’m not feeling too too hormonal for now and we’ve been doing shots after his bed time so it’s not been too bad :). But it’s still early days 🙂 🙂
Good luck, here’s to our sober Christmas and new year xxx
Thank you! That would be awesome!!
