I'm nearing the end of day 28 now....which is my normal cycle length before IVF messed it all up....but quite a bit longer than my last few 25 day cycles.
I've done everything on my 'bring on your period' list...I even did a HPT which of course was negative. (what with our tiny chance of conceiving and the fact that I was doing a medicated cycle which supresses ovulation it was a fair stretch but I thought it might jinx AF into arriving)
G's excitement at a possible Day 1 has waned now and he's bored with my excited predictions-it's been 4 days of me saying to him 'ooh I have proper cramps-tomorrow is Day 1 FOR SURE'...so now I'm the Girl that Cried Period and when it really does come he's not going to believe me.
I have a few theories as to why AF is not here yet. One is that my Ute is traumatised after having it's FET cancelled and is refusing to co-operate until there's an embryo in there-I appreciate the protest on my behalf but it really isn't helping our case....or maybe the pills from this cycle have severely disorientated my Ute and it doesn't know which way to shed it's lining....or it's just plain broken. Someone call a mechanic my ute won't start.
Cutest pic of a mechanic I could find...y'all know I like cute stuff! It's Peppa Pig!
Sorry AF hasn't come, hope she doesn't over-do it when she does finally show.
ReplyDeleteIt's too funny that this is the title of your post. I was writing to my egg donor coordinator today and said I was sorry for being "The Little Girl Who Cried Period." I thought it was here last Friday...called it in...then done after 6 hours. Then, last night, post-yoga class (the same as the week before) it showed up again. I was really embarrassed to admit I made a mistake before, but your posts always make me laugh...and the timing of this one makes me feel better. You are a fabulous writer. Hopefully your Ute was just holding off so she can make a grand appearance with much fanfare, applause and cheering.
ReplyDeleteDarn it AF! I hope she comes soon so you can get started again!!
ReplyDeleteLove that our uterus's (uteri !?!? - not sure of the plural) have minds of their own ! Wishing that yours arrives soon, so that you can get on with the FET :)) xoxo
ReplyDeleteIt probably is the meds unfortunately :-( Hope she shows up for you soon, waiting for AF is the pits!! She's never here when you want her and when you don't she turns up right on schedule.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me it's here by now?? I'm sosoooo jeleous! Maybe the old bictchs walking stick got stolen? My AF will be over before u start! It's already nearly gone!
ReplyDeleteOh Ants, I'm so excited for u...xoxo
Still not here....:(
ReplyDeleteI did another test just in case and to try and trick things along but nothing.
That's what I get for getting waaaaaaay ahead of myself haha.
Oh no.... It's torture!! Let the girl bleed for heavens sake!!
ReplyDeleteStupid AF - never shows when you want it too! I love the pig- cutest mechanic i have seen in a long time!!
