The meeting was rescheduled for Tuesday now instead. The nurse has someone in the hospital. I think she said her husband. But either way, I need to work tomorrow (the day before Spring Break...ugh) so we moved it. That way I get some more money and she can do what she needs to do. Not much is going on until the end of April.
Although, I will say I am starting to freak out...like anxiety type of freaking out. I can feel it in my chest and everything.
So many questions race through my head...and are starting to worry me. It hasn't even started yet!
How do you all keep calm? Or are you like me and are starting to realize the reality of what's going on??
I kinda freaked out, but once I got in the groove of the cycle, it wasn't that different from my last IUI. There's more needles than with my IUI, but it really isn't that different.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm staying calm by staying hopeful this will have the posistve ending we've been after for almost 4 years.
Thanks for the comments on my blog....the new layout is actually a picture of a thunderstorm rolling in over the lake where I vacation. The profile pic is the rainbow after the storm....I'm using it to boost a positive feeling: IVF = storm and rainbow=baby. I'm really happy with how it turned out!
Take this month to chill out. I started acupuncture the month before and took a little extra time for me..yoga, pedis, massage, and a Bon Jovi concert. All in all I feel pretty damn good.
I just keep focusing on the next step. At a very micro level. Like, I need to make sure I have decaf coffee at home and at work. If I start thinking about paying for everything and scheduling everything and what-about-the-side-effects and oh-god-what-if-it-doesn't-work...well, I very quickly end up worrying about things like global warming and starving children in Africa and then I'm paralyzed. So I just put one foot in front of the other, just look at the next thing I need to do.
ReplyDeleteI've also had success with the "schedule a time for worry" method - http://lifehacker.com/#!5539244/make-an-appointment-with-worries-to-avoid-letting-them-derail-your-life
Just stopped by to wish you good luck tomorrow....I'll be thinking of you....
ReplyDeleteThanks to both of you! :) I really appreciate it. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, "no rain, no rainbows" has been a constant motto I've had. It's just hard to remember sometimes.
Thanks again ladies.
