How are you feeling? I’m on progesterone injections, so I’m having crazy side effects. Tons of bloating and nausea, absolutely exhausted, hungry, pressure in my lower abdomen, and extreme (like, really extreme) thirst.
Rants/raves: I really hate how IVF has ruined this part for me. Like, I can’t enjoy it because I’m always waiting for the other shoe to drop. Nothing has ever worked before, so why should this work now? I’m tired of being “cautiously optimistic”... I just want to be optimistic!!
Question: ooohh. I make an amazing Mac and cheese. It’s like Mac and cheese plus spinach dip and it’s soooo good.
@megmac2010 My doctor just prescribed progesterone for me, and I'm pretty worried about the side effects, because I get pretty sick without any help needed from extra hormones! I hope your cautious optimism turns into optimism soon. TW... I had a miscarriage in October...end TW so I am also feeling optimistic, but mostly nervous. It is hard to feel like you can't celebrate or get too attached yet.

Rants/Raves: I wish having babies was easier haha I told my husband I was in the pit of despair because I don't feel sick today and it concerns me
Questions: If we were going to a cook-out together, what would you bring? My go to dish would be either cookies for dessert or cheesy potatoes for a side
Let me know if you have questions! I’m a progesterone veteran!
@megmac2010 Thanks! He put me on oral progesterone, so hopefully it won't be too bad! I hope you start feeling better soon!
