Trouble TTC

Hoping this will be amusing and not annoying. My BFP.

A few funny things:

1.  I consulted an internet psychic (Jenny Renny) in July, and she said I'd get my BFP in November from a cycle that started in October.  She was right.

2.   This cycle was so disappointing to me.  I had a small cyst at my baseline, and after four days of shots, there was just one huge, dominant follie (the RE wanted to see 2-4), and we were so bummed, we canceled the IUI.  I didn't want to "waste" money on such a "bad" cycle.  I wanted to share, because kelnyc was right -- it only takes one.  Smile

3.   You may remember I fired my old RE and wrote a bunch of nasty reviews online.  Embarrassed  I was so sure this cycle hadn't worked, I was without an RE for a week or so.  Now I am meeting with my new RE today and will get to say, "Hi!  I'm kinda pregnant!"  This feels really weird.

4.   MH and I agreed we were going to wait until lunch to get beta #2 results, and the stinker talked to the nurse and called me because it was good news.  So MH told ME I'm pregnant.  Wink

Signed,

Still Terrified but Trying to Get Excited

    I so know that feeling.  I'm sorry.  

    I keep thinking I need to try to enjoy this, because lately I was verging on bitter and I'm always pessimistic.  I feel like I'm pretending.  IF really messes with your head.  Sad

  • Congratulations!!  And good luck.

    JennyRenny told me I'd get a BFP in a November into December cycle (i.e., this one).  I almost wish I hadn't read this, because the combination of that prediction and the fact that this is my first injects cycle means my hopes are already up TOO high.  I need to keep telling myself that psychics are fake.  ;-)

  • Not annoying at all!  And, FWIW, you ARE pregnant!  There's no kinda!!  Enjoy it, and GL meeting with your new RE!
