Hello out there - not sure if I have anyone left, as I've been a very bad blogger. Things have been exceptionally busy at work and with travel. October flew by. I'm currently on Day 6 of stims for IVF#3, our last. Monitoring yesterday showed slow progress, but it's early. I go back tomorrow.
I've been going to acupuncture weekly and really enjoying it. I don't know if it is helping, but I do find it relaxing and I love my practitioner. Of course, I broke down and cried in her office last week - so she might not love me back. I broke out the Circle+Bloom and it still puts me to sleep. I think it's just an automatic reaction to her voice and I can't seem to fight it. Still counts as relaxation, right?
I've been feeling pretty sad and weepy - I had chalked it up to the bcp, but I'm still feeling it. I just don't have confidence and sometimes it all seems so overwhelming that I just want to stay in bed and pull the covers over my head.
Anyhow -- I'm trucking along slow and steady. I get out of bed and stay busy. And hopefully by this time next week, we'll be gearing up for retrieval.
Hey I'm still here! Hope things are progressing well for you. You cried to your acupuncturist just last week? Yeah, I pretty much cry every week so I'd say you're doing well, ha! I get the overwhelming part, it's so draining on so many levels. Well, know you are not alone. I'm under the covers with you, figuratively of course :) Although now i'm imagining a big slumber party of depressed bloggers lying around in sleeping bags all day.
