Lupron and Television

Sometimes what I watch on TV seems to fit right in with my life, and sometimes it doesn't.  Anyone following the story-line on Private Practice?  I just finished last week's episode, and all I can say is Yes, you've gotta have hope.  But lady - Hope kills.

And so do crazy hormonal women.  I'm having a rough enough time already, I don't really want to experience the full blown IVF hormonacoaster.  Plus - as much as I love Jakobe, he gets a perverse joy out of making sure I know exactly how crazy and bitchy I am.  Which is totally not fair, especially when he's being just as moody, if more predictable.

In any case, my first Lupron injection was tonight, and then as I was sitting there, feeling kind-of yucky and crampy i discovered that joy of joys now I'm spotting (or more, it *is* red) too.  and I can't figure out which day I'm supposed to be on for my damned fertility meditations....  I think I'll do day 1 tonight, and then day 3 tomorrow - I've gotta shortchange one or two of them, since I have about 10 days, to fit in twelve days of meditations.  I suppose I could meditate more than once a day...  a thought.

Here's to all of us surviving the next few days.  Me, Jakobe and Sasha.

I got smart - tonight I picked out tomorrow's clothes so that I don't have to figure it out in the morning, just find socks.  Speaking of socks - anyone know where I can find some awesome ones before Friday?  I'm just not ready for Christmas socks, and those were the only ones I found today.

  2. Right here with ya girl! Had my last stims last night and going to do the trigger tonight. As for socks--last pair I got for my last retrieval was from the mall store Fuego. Im not sure if you ahave one by you, but it's a funky artsy fartys chain store. Also, Fireworks. They usually have fun socks. Happy shopping!

  3. I hope the meditations help. Lupron will drive you crazy!

    I got two pairs of really cool socks by accident. I was in the kid section of Target buying socks, and I bought the wrong size..so they fit me. One pair is striped and one polka dot in the same colors, so you can even mix n match them if you are feeling wacky. The nurse complemented me on them when I had my feet in the stirrups. Which was a little weird :)
