Well I have to say Tuesday and Wednesday haven't been fun. Today I feel half normal and haven't had to resort to any vicodin (yet). I didn't want to take any yesterday because I believe they can make your constipation worse and me and constipation do not do good together.... that's all I'll say on that subject.
Tuesday the pain reminded me of after giving birth but on a way way lesser scale. Pressure and soreness. Yesterday it was bloating pain from the empty follicles filling up with fluid. The pain traveled up and it hurt to move, cry, sleep, walk, stand. I couldn't get comfortable at all. At one point I thought I was going to vomit but thank goodness I didn't.
Today it still hurts to get in and out of the chair/bed and when I walk I have to hold my stomach but the pain is more manageable. Holy Hell! I never knew bloating could be so painful.
The hours cannot go by any slower today. I just want my phone call tomorrow AM about my embryos and how they are doing. I hope I can sleep tonight. I'm really hoping the transfer will be Sunday so I can give my body more time to heal and feel "normal".
My bottom is sore from last night's progesterone. Seems like the left side is more sensitive than the right?
I really want to tell Carter more details about what's going on but I know that's not the right thing to do. I just keep telling him "Mommy's almost done trying to fix her belly" and when we pray we thank the Dr.'s who are helping me. It's my dream to tell him he's going to be a brother. I'm pretty sure he will be over the moon excited that we will have "another kid living here" (preferably a brother to him). He will be an awesome brother because he is so sweet and has his Dad's amazing heart.
It's it Friday yet?????????
My husband and I started our trying to conceive journey in 2005 . This is a snapshot of our life lessons in strength, hardship, failure, hope, disappointment, trust, determination, success, miracles and most of all patience.
