Day one!

in Frostie,Infertility

Because I know my reproductive workings have you on the edge of your seat, I felt it necessary to broadcast to the entire interweb that it is, in fact, day one of my cycle. The cycle. The cycle that will lead, in approximately two weeks, to my wee Frostie finally coming out of its deep freeze, at which point I think I will begin to refer to it as my little Toastie instead.

Next stop, an ultrasound on July 13. Stay tuned!

  1. Saying goodbye to frostie I’ve always believed in a greater order to the universe, if not in an actual higher power. Not exactly fate, because I believe we do control our own destinies. But I strongly believe that everything happens for a reason. That makes it only marginally easier to say goodbye to frostie....
  2. Wheeeeeeee! It’s day one. Here we go! (breathe, breathe…) It’s ‘day one’ of my pre-transfer mock cycle. Aren’t you excited? I’m positively giddy! For those of you who haven’t been committing this stuff to memory, here’s the plan: Next Thursday, June 15, I start using a pee-on-the-stick ovulation predictor kit. The...
  3. Fertility watch Warning: too much information alert! You are about to read about my bodily functions, the monthly girly ones. Consider yourself warned. This is the last chance to avert your eyes before gratuituous descriptions of “female troubles”. So you probably haven’t been nearly as obsessed with my “moon tide” as I...
  4. "Your mucous is lovely!" It’s not every day you get a compliment like, “Your mucous is lovely” but being the affirmation-junkie that I am, I’ll take it! That’s what one of the two (two!) reproductive endocrinologists (RE) who helped turn frostie into a toastie yesterday told me. He also said I have an ideal...
  5. Emotional wreckage Ah, there’s nothing like a good meltdown to clear your head. Maybe the toddlers are on to something? Apparently, I’m not taking this whole frostie thing with the zen detachment I thought I was. I was talking to a friend today, my knickers in a twist supposedly about all the...

Yay!!!! This is very exciting. I would raise a glass to your “Frostie/Toastie” but all I have in my hand right now is a pastrami sandwhich! Did I get any mustard on ya?

Hurrah! Very exciting time for everyone (including your readers). It almost as suspenseful as being the actual parents!

Yee-haw! That is exciting!

Good luck on the possible transformation of your precious frostie into your little Toastie. Shall we all have a toast for the Toastie? :)

Good luck! It would be nice to be pregnant at the same time as you. Um, is that wierd and stalkerish? I didn’t mean it to be. It would just be fun to read along with your experiences only a month behind mine. I really, really hope things go well for you.

Uh…vaguely uncomfortable memories of reporting my menstrual comings and goings to my RE’s nurse, but ANYWAY….
Best of luck! :-)
