February 1st & 7th

Impatiently Patient

Monday, February 1

I no longer feel bloated and crampy, but I am fatigued even after a full night’s sleep. I don’t know if it’s the weather or hormones from the suppression shot. I’m exhausted. I’m counting down the days for my period to come so we can get this show on the road!

Sunday, February 7

It’s 2 am and finally, my period started! Oddly enough, this is the first time getting my period felt like Christmas. I am so ready to start the IVF process officially. The last six days have dragged on so slowly. I was miserable and just slept all day, every day, because I was so bored and just wanted to get to this point.

I feel like I’ve had great patience for the last eight years, but now that we are at this point and baby #4 seems possible, I am losing that patience!
