Now what?!
My period was imminent. The nurse told me it would come "any minute now" on Monday. It hasn't. The spotting (which at it's heaviest hardly required a panty liner) has nearly stopped. STOPPED! And, so now I am going insane! What could possibly be wrong NOW?! I was supposed to call the office when my period started. I know my period and it definitely requires more than a panty liner. The spotting gets heavier until the full flow (or, as I call it, gushing) is here, at times soaking through tampons onto pads. Uh, that has not happened. Will it happen? How long do I wait? What if there is something else wrong with me?! Tomorrow is Thursday and my period was due Tuesday. I will call the Infertility Doctor tomorrow and tell them what is going on. And try not to lose my mind in the meantime. I mean, who ever heard of such a crazy thing? If I am not pregnant, then I want to get my period and get over it to prepare for next month. I don't want to deal with more waiting and random, lingering spotting. Why can't my body cooperate just this once?

That is frustrating. I have only ever had my period by super late twice. Once it finally came on it's own and the other time I had to do those little yellow vaginal suppositories. Both were right after I started seeing a new RE, so I just contributed it to the stress. I hope AF visits soon so you can get on with things!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are going through this. I'm a worrier, so I know how you are feeling, but I also have had plenty of "off" cycles because of stress. I know it probably doesn't make you feel any better, but I know lots of women that this happens to during fertility treatments. Hopefully AF will come soon (how often can you say that?).
