FET #3: 4dp6dt
So in case you hadn't noticed, I'm taking a bit of a different approach this time around. I'm doing my best to not obsess. And surprisingly, I'm doing pretty well.
I never thought I'd be the one to hold off on testing, to try not to obsess. Who cares either way, right? Obsessing has always been a great way to pass the time for me.
Well, after so much disappointment in the realm of baby-making, something's gotta give. So this time I'm trying to protect my heart a bit.
My plan remains to test on Saturday evening. After my dear friend's baby shower. That will be 6dp6dt, and if this FET worked, I will get at least a hint of a line by that point.
Since last night, I've been having these intermittent pangs. They aren't really cramps. I think it might be that "burrowing" or "digging in" feeling that some ladies say they experience. It is here briefly and then goes. I'm doing a piss-poor job of describing it, but hopefully you get the idea. It's always on the same side (the right side), down kind of near my ovary. I'm hoping it's a good sign.
Other than that, I'm not really having any symptoms of note. I was hoping the whole peeing-in-middle-of-the-night thing would start up soon. And I really don't know if it has. Last night, Buster barged in the bedroom at 1:00 a.m. with Kelsey in tow. Apparently Kelsey had the shits and Buster put her in the tub to wash off her back "feathers". So I woke up to help and peed while I was up. Hopefully tonight I'll wake up on my own with the need to pee.

Just because I'm not obsessing, that doesn't mean I can't post my symptoms, right? (Does that last sentence contain a triple negative??)Since last night, I've been having these intermittent pangs.

ReplyDeleteI have found myself trying not to obsess too much lately too. It is so hard but in the end I think it is better for my mental health. I have everything crossed for you. I have a good feeling about this.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for not obsessing. I'm still excited to see your tests though! KMFX!
ReplyDeleteGood job not obsessing! I think its important to protect oneself from too much heartache (and you've had more than enough). I hope that "burrowing in" feeling is a good sign :-) Waiting anxiously for your test result!!
ReplyDeleteObsessing is mandatory, I think!?!?
