October 2015.
We’re on the tail end of this round and everything is getting really hard. I’m super tired (though I’ve been reassured this is a good thing). The shots are becoming a massive hurdle now – my belly is so sore and tender that it’s uncomfortable (more than usual!) to do them. It’s often three or four a night and I have to psych myself up and push through – definitely not like at the beginning of the round where you just get on with it.
I worry that I’ve overdone myself and planned too many things (we’re going away for a 6oth, and I’m doing a favour for my hairdresser), but feel obliged to push through. Zee says I’m handling this round better than the last two – I’m less hormonal, I think? I’m not sure. I’m definitely sleeping more, anyway.
My biggest fear going into egg collection is that I’ve ovulated all my eggs away. We’ve been a bit fast and loose this round, and I know, I know we had two cetrocide shotes on the last day but…. I still can’t share the fear.
I hate this bit, where everything just gets so hard. Eye on the prize through – we’re only a few more days out. We’ve set a date for egg collection. Only four days from now. Only four more days!
