So tired!

I have been on my FET drugs for near enough a week now. My guts did get a bit better, but this morning they were no great again. I am also feeling extremely tired at the moment. I could sleep all day (but I don't!), but at night I do not seem to be able to sleep well. I think I remember feeling like this last FET and it will definetly be worth it if I get my BFP!

I am starting to get to this hopeful, it may work stage. I know it is good to to be hopeful, but at the same time, I feel I need to be careful that I do not get carried away. There is a big chance that this will not work again, but there is a small chance it will!

My next scan is Wednesday morning and so I will see how thick my lining is getting!

Side effects already?! (TMI!)

I'm on CD4, third day of treatment for this FET #2 and already I am having side effects. The oestrogen tablets (Progynova) are giving me bad diarrhoea. Sorry, I know its TMI, but I'm struggling already! It's mainly in the mornings, but it's hard getting to work and driving around all day for my job.

This happened last cycle and no one seemed to have come across it before. Has anyone had this side effect? Any tips on how to stop it, as I am worried because IF (haha!) I get pregnant, I need to carry on with these drugs till 12weeks

Baseline for FET #2

All went well, my lining was 0.42cm and ovaries looked fine. I started my progynova tablets at lunch time and will start my suprecur injections this evening! So pleased that I have been given the go ahead to cycle!!

I am wondering what side effects I will get this time as last time I had very bad upset guts last time when on progynova tablets, I hope it is not the case this time!

I'm back, relaxed(?!) and ready to go!!

My holiday was amazing! I definitely ate too much and drank too much but I have a nice tan and am the most relaxed I have been for quite a while.
I stopped my BCP on thursday, expecting AF Monday and have my baseline booked in for 8.30am Tuesday for my FET #2!!
I have not cycled for 8 months and that is too long! I'm excited to be trying again, but scared and nervous.

I have not been blogging much recently, but I shall be a bit more now I'm back on the rollercoaster!!

Hating the facebook game

Have you all noticed how it appears everyone is pregnant with their facebook status updates at the moment?!? I have come to realise that it is not the case, but another breast cancer awareness game, although I do not actually understand how it raises breast cancer awareness?!? I have to admit that my jealousy has been bad recently (actually when hasn't it been!?) and I think the facebook game is a cruel game to play on us IFers!

Work has been bad recently and I am in desperate need for a break! Only 2 more nights and 5 more days of work until I go away on holiday! We are off for a week break to Majorca and I cannot wait! Both DH and I are running on empty an dthis is just what we need! Things have been so hard for such a long time, I am amazed that we seem like we are still semi sane! I cant wait to get away and also I cant wait to get back. When I get back I shall be starting my FET #2! I really cant wait. For some reason I am feeling hopeful at the moment. I am not too sure why, but I guess it has to work at some point..... right....?
