Well, my period came four days early this month – four days! This puts me at a cycle length of only 26 days (not a biggie) but leaving me with a LP of 9 days (umm, biggie!). I suppose there is a chance that I actually ovulated earlier and had a lingering positive OPk – well, that’s what I’m hoping. I don’t have a consistent cycle (anywhere from 27… 26 now I guess to 33 days) but my LP is consistently 12-13 days.
Don’t you just LOVE when your body throws you a curve ball?
You know what though?
(A) AF arriving earlier just means that my schedule gets bumped up a few days – We will get to start our IVF journey four days sooner
(B) If there is anytime for my body to throw me a curve ball, I’m glad it’s now BEFORE we start with IVF. Right now I’m allowed to have a WTF whatever mentailty, but if this were happening during our ‘game time’ I would be stressing and cursing like a raging cab driver.
So, here I be at day 3. Period made her arrival known with cramps cramps cramps. It was bad. I am a heavy sleeper and it was enough to wake me up in the middle of the night for two hours. I even contemplated taking my magic pill and passing right out. Anyways, I got through it!
So, here’s one experience I wanted to share,
I always seem to fantasize about a psychic coming up to me out of the blue and telling me, congratulations or words to that effect. I would respond with, ‘I’m sorry, what’s that?” but of course, I would know exactly what she is talking about.
This has never happened before.
On the weekend though, Gav and I got our bloodtests for IVF – four vials for me, three for Gav. The nurse congratulated me (I think my req said prenatal on it). I explained that I wasn’t pregnant yet – and she said, oh, you will be. You will be pregnant soon.
Happy dance. She doesn’t know it, but she made my day!
