Finally... Auntie Flo came

After 39 days I can finally say that my period started. I have been very irritable and quite a bitch to be honest for the last week. When I called the clinic last time, I asked if my period should start normally after about 4 weeks after the unexpected period which started on day 18 of my last cycle. The nurse said yes. And yet here we are, more than a week later. I'll send them email again tomorrow about my 'progress' and I'm planning on including my AF schedule since the unsuccessful treatment in February. Just to let them know that my cycle has been very irregular and I think it might affect the treatment plan since it is all based on regular cycles. I'm not sure what I want them to reply. Whether I want them to check me to see if everything is fine or readjust the treatment dates according to my cycles now or whether to continue as planned (buserelin starting on day 21, no baseline scan...). We'll see tomorrow, hopefully they'll answer quickly.

Overwhelmed

Everybody around me is getting pregnant or already had a baby. Literally. My college classmates, friends, colleagues, family members... It just seems unfair. Why not me? I mean I am happy for them and it was very unlikely for us that the IVF would work the very first time but why can't we be in the middle of IVF #2 as we were supposed to be? Why is everything so much dependent on how my body reacted or still reacts to the drugs that are out of my system for over two months now? It's ridiculous. I now pray that I don't start bleeding in the middle of my next cycle again because I really want this to happen. I understand why other women get frustrated easily when this or something similar happens. I can't help but think about all this all the time. And we are only in the waiting period just now. I think Rick is getting a bit annoyed with me because I keep going on and on and on about it. I can't help it, honestly. Oops.
