Hi girls
Thanks so much for your messages, you are lovely. Yes, in the middle of the 2ww. I'm 99% sure I ov'd a week ago last Friday. IUI following ov stick surge on the Thurs (and backup bd on the Friday and since too just to make sure!). So I'm now 9 DPO. The 2ww has been driving me a little nuts - hence the low profile over the last week or so. I've been doing absolutely everything I can to give us the best chance this month - I've had the Clomid, the IUI, used pre-seed, had acupuncture every week, not a drop of alcohol or caffeine and been as chilled out as possible at work and at home. I swing wildly from being really optimistic to really negative - not sure how to combat that, I guess it's pretty natural.
My hb is a genius - I told him I was going a little nuts and he said right, let's look at booking a holiday. He knows that hols are my favourite thing in the world (apart from him of course!) and since then things have been much easier! We've found a couple of possible places we want to go and we're waiting and will book if it's bad news at the end of the week to take the edge off. I know I'll still be gutted but will love to have a break to look forward to and just looking at hols has helped me to obsess less.
Absolutely no symptoms either way. The nurse who did the IUI said I could test on Thurs though not sure if I will - as a few of you have said recently it's actually better to think there may be a BFP on the way than to test and know it's not happened. We'll see though, I may entirely change my tune and POAS tomorrow!!
So how are all of you? Have missed chatting over the last week - funny how friendly you can get with lovely ladies you've never even met!!
