Waiting is a complete headache. However, we wait no more to kick this cycle off! Period is here and in FULL FORCE. She's back with a vengeance!!! This cycle will be over, one way or another, by June 15th (ish...). I'm glad to finally be on our way with it.
I do have a monster headache today, though. Maybe the good ol' period, but, probably more is stress. My uncle had to have emergency surgery today. Something happened with his small intestine - a blood clot - and part of it died. So, they had to remove it and reconnect his pipes. Sounds easy enough. However, he's in his late 70s and is diabetic and has had heart trouble in the past. The next few days will be touch and go. We're, obviously, hoping for a quick, FULL recovery and no additional surgery. He's one of the very sweetest, kindest men I know. He was my Dad's best man and has been like a grandfather to my sister and I.
Needless to point out, it's been a bit of a stressful day...and my head is pounding.
Any prayers you can offer up are much appreciated.
One really bright spot to my day - I ran into Murgdan at the hospital! Small world, and it was nice to see her during this 2WW for her. She also was able to meet my very favorite person - my niece (who was terribly shy and wouldn't speak...).

Sorry about your headache! They are awful.
I will think good thoughts for your uncle. Hope he gets better soon! Surgery is always a risk, and more so as we get older and have other health problems.
Yes! And I am so glad I wasn't just hallucinating Taras...good to see you, and hoping for a quick recovery for your uncle.
Cute niece by the way. ;-)
Oh, I'm sorry to hear about your uncle and your headache. Take it easy, girl and try to stay as stress-free as possible!
Sorry about the headache, AF and ur uncle. Hope he recovers quickly and be in the best of health soon enough.
I am happy for you that you are going to be on the way pretty soon.
Congrats on the period. I'm still waiting for mine. I hope we both have good luck this time.
Isn't weird how we can love and hate AF? I hope your uncle is on his wasy to recovery.
And...I like your optimism too. It feels good for a change doesn't it?
I'm sorry about your headache and your uncle - I hope all goes well. I will definitely send prayers and good thoughts your way.
And thanks for the assvice - I'm a total IVF newbie and never allowed myself to consider being in this position, so anything helps. There are probably a million things I should consider that I won't think of on my own.
I will pray for your uncle. I hope he is better real soon!
I knew you and Murgdan lived roughly in the same area and was wondering when that run-in would happen!
I'm keeping your uncle in my thoughts and of course you as well as you begin this next cycle. I can only imagine the stress of both waits and hope that you can find some reprieve!
Sorry about the headache. How neat to meet Murgdan there :)
Good luck this cycle hun.
