We’re officially 1 week and 1 day away from finding out whether or not IVF (round #1) has been successful. I’d like to say that I’ve been calm and relaxed, but unfortunately the 2 week wait (2WW) got the best of me last evening. This morning I awoke quite ashamed of myself and I’m moving forward with a new day and a new outlook on the process. I’m now more determined to keep myself busy and my mind off the possibilities….
Things that I need to quit doing on my 2WW:
- Over analyzing my body (Is my chest larger? Does it hurt, does it not hurt? I’m not cramping anymore, is that good or bad?) Enough!
- Stop reading things on the Internet- that sparked my emotional let go last night. There really are no sure symptoms of pregnancy and these are even further disrupted by the hormones I’m taking.
- Thinking about a pregnancy test. I was all good on not taking a test until my nurse presented the possibility of testing next Wednesday at home prior to Thursday's bloodtest, now I cannot get it out of my head.
- Thinking about “feeling” pregnant! What does that even mean? I was pretty discouraged yesterday because up until then I had been “feeling” off, but I truthfully don’t have those feelings any longer.
- Turning to any source (the Internet, people) and not to my God for faith, support and assurance.
Today, I am going to remember:Proverbs 2:8 ….for He guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.
