I'd love to tell ya.
So after three days of being allowed to only move from the couch to the chair to the bed.... I'm a free woman again! As long as I'm not horseback riding, I'm allowed to live life as normal. It's great timing too, with all the Christmas errands and winter break relaxing going on. My doctor couldn't have planned this any better! I'm having a good time waiting. I thought it would be tough, but I love it. It's a magical time of limitless possibilities!! I can Pinterest and dream until my heart is content. I can get wrapped up in the magic and distraction of Christmas! I can think about the future with no one to tell me no. My dreams.... Those have been interesting- save those for the dream journal. ;) Honestly though, it's awesome to think of all the great things that are going to happen in my body in the months ahead. I am still being realistic though, I have been making plans in case it doesn't work also. Those plans consist of waiting two months and trying IVF again. (Doc approved) So mostly I'm been thinking about how life will change with that positive test. :)
The only tough part is the pesky progesterone injections. I'm running out of room with all the bruises on my hips. When we get that positive result, I get to keep getting injections! They also make me feel a tiny bit weepy, like "cry to a sad song in the car, what is happening to me, I never used to cry" kind of weepy. But I'm fine *sniff,* I'm fine.
I found the CUTEST book at Target while finishing up some Christmas shopping. It's about wishing for a child but it's written as a children's book. Here's a peek....
Here's the science of what is happening! I found the best explanation and I really like the details, so if you are into the science of this amazing process- check this out!
