Easter Sunday.. & embie update

Firstly, Happy Easter!

I had to work today, and a 10hr shift at that. Poo! It was my first day back after the EPU & I was still feeling a bit sore & sorry for myself. I thought I'd be better by then but no such luck. Oh well, I battled through. Nobody asked what was wrong with me, despite me hobbling around very slowly. I was given a bit of a hard time for not working on the day of my op, but I just said I had something on that was personal, and left it at that.

The clinic called while I was working & I had to call them back later. I was dying to find out about my embies!! The scientist said my 3 were dividing nicely and looking good. The one that wasn't fertilising still hadn't done anything so that looked like a dud. Oh well, feeling a little more positive about it today after a meltdown yesterday. As DP said - good things come in 3's.

I started the dreaded Crinone gel last night. "Administering" it wasn't as bad as I'd envisaged. I'm a little concerned about the side effects listed on the pamphlet, and widely discussed on fertility forums. Things such as depression.. my favourite is "feelings of unworthiness". Great. Can't wait. I've told DP about it.. he's really angry they list such negative things & thinks it puts bad thoughts into people's heads. I'm trying to get through to him that it's listed for a reason. And I told him for a reason - so he could look out for me & make sure I don't go over the edge!

OK.. must go & lie down for a while now. On top of the stomach pain, the bloating & the gas pains I'm also reaaaaaally blahhh from TOOOOO MUCHHHH CHOCOLAAAAATE!!! Ugh.
