Pity Party, Table for One

My first RE appointment was sullied this morning when I found out - AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE - that my sack of sh*t brother-in-law's girlfriend (since DECEMBER!) is pregnant with TWINS.  And they're all going to be living WITH MY MOTHER IN LAW.  

Shoot. Me. Now. K. Thx. Bai.

I have been crying and in solid meltdown mode since 10:45a.

BUT!

The RE is amazing and I'm really optimistic.  I'm at the tail end of my first Clomid cycle and the ultrasound this morning revealed a 20mm+ follicle on each side so I hope to ovulate in a couple of days.  If we don't succeed this cycle, we're doing one more medicated cycle (Femara) and then going straight to IUI/IVF.  I love having a plan.

    If you'd like to make that a table for two, I'll join you.  I don't have any craptastic news to rival yours but I'm always up for a pity party.  Can we order wine by the bottle and chocolate cake??

    That sounds divine.  I ate my feelings in the form of a Chik Fil-A chocolate milkshake this afternoon and when I get home I think a box of Cheez-its is in order.

    Seriously? If you knew my brother-in-law, you would skip the cake and immediately start mainlining horse tranq into your eyeball.

    I know what you mean, at the end of last cycle I went on a two week long carb binge.  I may not BE pregnant but I was working on the pregnant-belly-look!  I think I feel sorry for your MIL.

    I feel terrible for her. I spoke to her this morning after they found out and the saddness and disappointment in her voice was palpable.  I could tell she wanted to say more but couldn't, as she had BIL's Baby Mama in the car with her.

    Ah, families.  Can't live with 'em, can't ship 'em out on an ice floe into the Arctic Ocean.

    Wow, that sucks. Puts my pity party into perspective.  Congrats on the good news too though!  And I gotta say, I'm jealous (the good kind) with how fast you're getting things done!  I'm still in the Dx phase and have yet to start on Clomid or anything and I met w/ doc in Feb.  You've definitely got that going for you!
