waiting

It has been 11 days since I had the embryo transfer. I have to wait another 4 days until I can get the blood test done. It is the worst fortnight imaginable.

I am tired, hungry, teary, off coffee (Yes I hear a gasp!)and my sense of smell is becoming more acute. These are all positive signs. However I am on an enormous amount of progesterone. For those of you who don't know, progesterone is the hormone that 'keeps' a pregnancy. So, when there are copious amounts of it sourcing through your veins, your body is going to think "I'm pregnant".

It is difficult to not analyse each little symptom.

It is difficult to stay positive whilst keeping one foot firmly on the ground to protect yourself from a big 'kerthump' when/ if the blood test results are negative.

It is difficult.

Only two more weeks of the exhibition. Only two more weeks until we go away again, for another wedding!

Here is one of my favourite images. Its called 'Cooleebah Reflectins'
