Surprizingly I still don’t feel all that uncomfortable. I mean, yes I’m bloated, and yes I’m a little tender around my midsection, but I still don’t say it’s that bad. I get the feeling that people kind of expect me to be curled up in the fetal position, moaning. Other than being a little more deliberate when I sit down and stand up, I don’t notice much difference. (Though I will say I’m not too fond of the cat standing on my belly right now. Especially the fat one.)<\/p>\n

My belly itches from where I got my last few shots.<\/p>\n

My body apparently craves the appropriate things. The other day I wanted chicken noodle soup. Today I wanted peanut butter. I just kind of go with whatever it wants. (Unless it wants chocolate. Because it is a TRICK!! Okay, okay, I still eat it. But it’s with the full knowledge that it is a trick. I swear.)<\/p>\n

Today was a stressful day, me getting more jittery by the hour as time stretched on and no phonecall came. Tomorrow doesn’t look to be any better.<\/p>\n

I believe that this is one of those cases where ignorance is bliss. I feel like if I had just taken the nurses optimism at face value I would just happily be puttering around coasting, waiting for retrieval. I just happen to know just how bad a high E2 level is, how overstimmed cycles get cancelled and overstimmed bodies get OHSS. I know too much to pretend that it’s all going to magically be okay.<\/p>\n

“There’s always an alien battle-cruiser, or a Corillian death ray, or an intergalactic plague that’s about to wipe out life on this miserable planet. The only way that these people get on with their happy lives is they DO NOT know about it.”
