The killer two week wait!

The IVF process is all about waiting and patience I swear, and sometimes you just run out of patience especially when its something that you have been wanting for many years.

The waiting game was EXTREAMLY hard through the weekend because laying around gives you nothing but time to think and concentrate on if it worked or not. The doctor tells you not to move around much, but really could laying in bed make you pregnant?

My mind slowed down a little when I went back to work on Monday which was 3dp5dt.  The doctor told us that we should not cheat and take any at home tests just because they could give you a false negative or even a false positive because of all of the medications. Some symptoms that I did notice that day were some intense cramping and then later that night I noticed some spotting. Which is all totally normal so nothing to freak out about. Johnny also made a mention that he thought my boobs were getting bigger LOL. I think it was just the shirt I was wearing honestly. :)

Tuesday is usually a super busy day at work so I didn't think much about it. I did still have some on and off cramping but there wasn't much spotting. My boobs were super sore though so that was so comfortable. I am still keeping up with changing my patches every other day as well as Johnny giving me my progesterone in oil shot the opposite days of the patch change.

Wednesday is 5dp5dt and I was getting really anxious to know what the results are. Most people I have read their blogs usually give in and test by now. Johnny told me that I was not allowed to, although I really wanted to. I know, I know it could give inaccurate readings but I still wanted to do it. My boobs we still super sore and I was feeling a bit bloated. Which are all signs of aunt flow also.

Thursday, 6dp5dt I seemed to be a little bit more sleepy. Maybe its because its so dark out in the morning and I haven't been able to sleep through the night. Still pretty bloated but not much else going on as far as symptoms.

Friday marks 7dp5dt. I am awaiting another round of medications today from the lovely FedEx driver. I did give in and take a test so that I could see what it said. I am not going to 100% believe what it told me until I did go to my Beta test. I have had a little more spotting and have just been really tired, but that's usually me anyway :)

On our way to the doctor

Well we are heading to the doctor this lovely Sunday morning!! We didn't have to wait a full two weeks because we had a frozen embryo transferred that was already 5 days old so the wait time was a little less, although it did not feel like any less. :)

 We will get a blood draw to check my HCG levels. Today marks 9dp5dt, or cycle day 31 whichever way you look at it  We will have to wait until later this afternoon for the nurse to call us with the results. This I think is by far the hardest waiting part..........
