Woo Hoo! Today I went in to see if my lining looks nice and quiet, and that it does. I usually know this is the case since I don’t get my period anymore without lots of hormones, but whatever, in this case I’ll take it.

So now the plan is my 2nd FET is scheduled for November 1st. They couldn’t give me a time today but said I definitely need to take it easy for a few days after. You see with my last transfer, the doc said I needed to rest for 3 days afterward, well I didn’t succeed at that. I went to whole foods immediately after transfer, walked around with my husband while feeling so relaxed from the Valium. What I should have been doing was resting in the car on the way home and then literally watched netflix for 3 days. But nope, I decided to do gardening, play with my 5 year old, etc… No telling what exactly happened with that transfer (that will be another post) but I definitely will be doing things differently this time around.

Anyway, estrogen shots start tonight and we’re excited. Now that we know what we’re doing, it doesn’t seem as scary. So wish us luck in this journey as we continue on!

What I started today- pomegranate juice and red raspberry leaf tea to support my uterus…

Things I’m planning for the next 3 weeks- castor oil treatments, acupuncture, lots of hot baths since I won’t get to have them for the next many many months, sushi, crab, exercise, minimal gluten, minimal caffeine, no alcohol…
