Hello ladies! It's been a long weekend for me! A lot going on...
I have been at my terrible job for 6 years and have been hating and waiting very impatiently to get pregnant and then go on maternity leave and collect disability and then not go back. But with great old IF its not coming as quick as I need it. Well I literally had a nervous breakdown on Thursdsy after getting lectured by my boss that my work wasn't caught up yet. She knows everything that I am going through and why I was out for the 4 days for my ER and ET. Well I came home hysterical crying and had a nervous breakdown and told my husband I am giving my 2 weeks. We have been trying to play it all out and figure out if financially if we can do it for now. I can work at my brother and sister in laws daycare come September as their director for much less money but it was my plan all along when I had a baby so I can have more flexibility to be a some what stay at home mom with a small salary. I just can't handle the stress of all this and that job at once. I'm also trying to take a deep breath and remember I am all hormonal and this is all magnified right now! So still up in the air about all that but it's all been tough...
As far as my FET, I had an apt yesterday morning and my lining is over an 8! So I am scheduled to have the transfer on Friday the 28th! I start the PIO tonight and I am a little freaked out!! Advice is welcomed! I also start to take my zpack and Medrol.
Gosh I know this post is huge but I have been Mia for a few days on here! I also freaked out a bit bc last night we BD'ed and I had some spotting!? I was never told not to BD before transfer just only after the ET. I am only on Estrace right now. Is this okay?! I hope I didn't mess anything up!

Re: UPDATE
Sounds like a terrible situation at your job. Stress is the last thing you need a week before your transfer. Hope you gain some clarity about what to do and feel less stressed soon!
Congrats on you FET being on Friday!! A lining of 8 is awesome!! See my post on the PIO injections thread for my recommendations. They aren't that bad but I get sore the following day. Good luck!!!

I'm sorry for the terrible job!! I was in your same shoes and just started a new job that I love! The new place even gave me this week off (claimed I had a vacation planned) so that I can take this week easy after today's FET.
GL with the FET on the 28th!! For the PIO it's not too too bad, but I am pretty sore!! Try to warm it up before and massage the area after!!
I'm so sorry you had such a terrible time with the work related stuff and I hope things get better. It seems like you have a good plan.
GOOD luck on your FET! I hope that this is it for you
