Re: TTTC 12-9-18
Nothing new with me this week until we meet next week with the dr to go over the biopsy test results. Praying my heart out between trying to forget about it.
Hope everyone is off to a good start this week!
QOTW: Tell us about an “oh s**t” moment when you realized you’ve been doing something the wrong for years OR what’s one thing you think you should be able to do as an adult but can’t. I feel like I should be able to come up with a lot of answers for this one. All I can think of right now is my friend in high school, we were proofing an essay for her and asked her what she meant by "bolth", we said, we think you spelt "both" wrong. "No, I meant bolth, like bolth of us." Hahaha. Just the way she said the word made it sound like there could have been an L. And she made it to high school before having it pointed out.
Maybe I will think of some others later. Lol but that one has me giggling for right now.
AFM, lupron going fine still. Today was the last BCP so I should have AF in the next couple days. I'm guessing by Friday or so. Trying to figure out in my head now how I'll do the shots around family this Christmas. Or if we're traveling home at the time we need to take the shot how that will work 😬 moving car and needles not the best

QOTW: till my mid twenties I didn’t know I had to remove lint from the dryers. Growing up, My parents didn’t have a dryer as we lived in a warmer place and clothes were just hung out to dry. I always complained that all the apartments I lived in had horrible dryers. Once my uncle visited me and he wanted to take a look at what was going on and then I realized it was the lint that was making the dryer inefficient!! Ever since all dryers have been working just fine. 😁

@hithertorue ugh waiting is the worst! i hope you can find something to take your mind off things.
@inthewoods23 good luck with all of the shots and traveling and family! gosh, Christmas is already stressful enough without all the IF stuff!
@amgpg25 congrats on the "official" BFP! FX that everything goes well with you and hope to see you over on the other boards.
AFM: just tip toeing through the first trimester and hoping and praying that everything will work out. im at 7 weeks 6 days at the moment. it still doesn't feel super real! im planning to stick around with y'all until i graduate from RE in early January, if that is okay. and even after that, i will lurk so i can hear all of your stories!
QOTW: i never learned how to ride a bike. and now that im older, its almost impossible, lol. so i guess thats something that i should be able to do as an adult but cant. ive tried and all that happens is i end up with bruised shins and a grumpy attitude hahaha.
dx: PCOS, hypothroidism
Second TTGP: started meds for first cycle of tx on 10/13/21
