That is how it feels here on CD1. We had a really good weekend – We did a ton of nesting:we worked on the baby quilts a bit, filled our fridge with groceries and started to work on the new coffee table we are building.
I talked to Dr. B’s office today – we are going to do the exact same protocol (clomid, IUI, then test progesterone to see if I have to go back on those darn suppositories) and I feel pretty good about all of that. I also made an appointment to do acupuncture. I had really gotten into it back in November and that cycle went very smoothly all up until they found that gigantic cyst. And I just fell out of it what with the stress of the holidays, and then the surgery. I am excited to start going again if nothing else for my nerves. (That sentence makes me sound like I am at least 30 years older then I am but acupuncture in the past was very calming for me.)
In a way it was really nice to see the blood today because at least it is the start of the next cycle. Giddy up pony, giddy up.

Good to see you making plans. Onwards and upwards.

May it be “second time’s a charm” for you two!

I think that sometimes the blood is relieving – especially when you KNOW it’s coming for days ahead. Then you can just get on with the planning for the next try. You sound really well and I hope this time does the trick. xoox

Yay for acupucnture!!! And I don’t know if it directly did anything to get my BFP, but it certianly did keep me relaxed and zen, which I think might have been exactly what I needed! I hope it is for you too!

It is a great feeling when the blood starts and you know you’re going to be starting up again. Nothing like a fresh start to improve the spirits.
