Update on me!

Hi Ladies,

I want to thank you all for weighing in on my IVF regrets yesterday. I'm still embarassed by posting that because the last thing I want to seem is ungrateful or anything like that. I'm such an emotional wreck from everything BUT I turned a very tight corner last night and was finally able to stand up and move around with less pain. I am actually at work today and even though I still feel pretty banged up, I am getting by with a heating pad and a gallon of Gatorade. Most importantly, my outlook has improved dramatically. I know that if this whole thing works out, I won't regret the process it took to get there at all. And of course, if I didn't do this, I'd always wonder which is exactly WHY I chose to do this in the first place. I hate when it becomes impossible to remember all that in the throes of hormone pumping, pain and discomfort. Thank you all for reminding me of these things and I appreciate your honestly and understanding more than I can say! ((hugs)) to everyone!

I am delighted by your positive report!

And please stop saying you're embarassed by yesterday's post. It was honest and the ugly truth is that dark days are part of IF. What's important is that we recognize how we're feeling and try to move past it. And you did it!! Seriously. You are at work today! You're a strong and motivated woman So bask in the glow of today's victory because you deserve it.

I'm glad you're feeling better. IVF is definitely a roller coaster ride.

I am glad you are feeling better. AND there is nothing to be embarassed about. This board is an outlet for you - we understand the emotions that come with IVF - don't be hard on yourself.

Take care.

dark days are normal and we are all entitled to them. sometimes IF days are darker than others. you are doin great. being able to pick yourself up and dust yourself off makes you a trooper and im glad to see today brings a better outlook.

I'm so glad you're doing better. IVF's a very difficult process, much more so than I personally anticipated. We all have tough days when we question things, but I'm glad that you've pulled through and are feeling better.
