CD1...now what??
So, for the first time, in like 4 years, I'm on CD1 with no idea what's next. Maybe nothing. Maybe nothing related to counting freaking cycle days. And that's ok. Either way, I guess I'm excited, albeit a little lost though. Part of me, the really really delusional part, feels like the last 4 years were just this really awful nightmare, and I have this crazy desire to say to sweet husband, hey baby, want to make a baby, and in a month or two, we'll be knocked up. I know, I know...this makes NO sense. I have no idea where this idiotic idea comes from given our history. Anyways, since that is absolutely not going to happen, I am just going to enjoy the lack of counting our new life calls for and relax until our next step seems clear.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life. Or something. You know what the bitch of it is? Years ago, we (or I anyway, as I have now fully confessed in a blog post) were unaware of the ways of our bodies. But you can't un-know the knowledge that you've gained. I wasn't charting this post-mc cycle, but I could tell you when I ovulated anyway. That's why I'm getting on BCP until my FET. I don't WANT to know. I want the days to all run into each other again. Blissful ignorance.
ReplyDeleteJess at A little blog about the big Infertility had a great post about this. Letting go fo the drugs...cycle days, forced baby-dancing. You are free, but there are still so many options open to you. This painful journey you are on is over...and you are starting a new one that will surely result in a baby.
ReplyDeleteIt must be a strange feeling for sure. Really hope you can let go of it all for a while until you are ready to make new plans - whatever they may be.
ReplyDeleteIt is so odd to be in this place! I hope you can enjoy this time. I still hold onto hope for miracles and I hope you get one.
ReplyDeleteyes! Relax...that sounds nice! This pressure is a killer isn't it! are you relaxing?.....
