I feel like Sew and I'm all excited about today being CD1...haaa! The dr warned me and I read that after a lap surgery my cycle could be messed up. Nope..not me. Right on time as scheduled! THe only difference is that I had cramping today that hurt enough for an A.leve pill and I haven't needed one until now except for a few headaches no bad cramps until today! Before surg...I was taking A.leve probably 7 to 10 days before CD1. I also got a big gush...and I haven't had that in years! No spotting or warning spots...just a gush...hmm...I may have to be better prepared. Thank goodness I was home. I have forgotten what that was like. Hmmm..
So, I'm thankful...and I am hopeful this is good. I am also excited that my dh and I are going to TTC one month on our own, no meds. I just want one month....no nothing...just us. I feel like we now have a "clean slate". We might as well try. Plus, with this class I'm taking I just can't see dealing with the stress of doing research and having hormone drama being a good combination. I guess my experiences with hormone drugs have not been that good. They make me tired, crampy, and sick. I recently found out that I don't need the other class I was going to take this summer so I now will have time off!!! THis will be good for the meds. I can stay home and be hormonal. I am hoping to have some getaway weekends this summer. I have a lot of organizing and things to do around the house so I'll be busy but getting a change of scenery will be refreshing. I also hope to work out and watch what I eat. I hope the meds don't give me weight gain. Ugh! I know I'll gain weight with a baby....but that is so much more acceptable than gaining weight from hormone meds. I know some of you know what I mean.
I am just thankful that I am back on track again and can chart a normal cycle. Last month was a "wash". I knew it would be. I have been enjoying this beautiful weather we are having. It's been cold for a long time. I am looking forward to the long summer days. I've finally planted my flowers and I am enjoying watering them every morning. I love being outside! Praise God!! He is so good and I can't say enough that I pray to do His will and please Him. It's all about His plan and me being a good follower. I'm praying for all of you too. God Bless and have a nice Mem.orial Day weekend.
Lucky girl! I hope this all means good news!
ReplyDeleteHow good does it feel to bleed like that!? Gosh, I crave it! :)
Only an IFer could write - in a tone of celebration - "I can stay home and be hormonal." And only another IFer could read that and think it sounds perfectly sensible...
ReplyDeletettc on your own is awesome. I mean, even if it doesn't work out, it is nice to have that one relaxed month.
ReplyDeleteGlad AF is so normal!
I am feeling really hopeful for you! What a blessing to have some time this summer to get away and be outside. Yay for that too! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is so great to hear such excitement in your post! Have fun ttc with just the two of you! It could definitiely happen and I am hoping with all my heart that it will! There are so many things to be grateful for in your life right now! Sending prayers your way!
ReplyDeleteI take back all of what I said about the injections! I can't handle prometrium or clomid and I am cheering you on to do injectibles. Shoot me in the head. I would be a basket case.
ReplyDeleteI am right now considering when should I just give up and move on with my life? I am so tired of feeling and being sick all the time. :)
