24 hours until I find out the ultimate outcome of this pregnancy.
Pregnancy - Ha! Can you actually believe those words I'm writing?
Guess I should savour the moment for as long as I can.
I have had a stinky cold which derived from the sore throat. I eventually contacted Penny & she told me that "Yes she's had it & it's going round!" Jeez last time we did IVF with her she gave me the lurgy! Thanks Penny!
I was told to take Vitamin C & nothing else. Obviously I'm worried that this has had some detrimental effect of the success of the continuation of the development of this embryo.
Jeez I just read that last sentence. What a mouthful. All those long words stringed together. Shhhhh don't tell anyone I may blow my blonde cover!
Right back to normal speech ------>
So here goes my recent / current symptoms ---- NONE!
Apart from severe bloating in the evening. I look like I've eaten an entire "all you can eat buffet" every night! I'm then back to normal in the morning.
Tender boobs have gone but boy my nipples hurt to touch. Tmi
The boob jiggling has stopped as they aren't as heavy but I may have to give them another dance tomorrow before the appointment.
I can't stop eating chocolate. Now I don't really eat that much chocolate at home. But I have to have chocolate ALL the time. Maybe it's just because I'm in a hot Country. Normally when I go away I blow the diet & eat what's bad for me? If this baby does survive I'll be giving birth to an Easter Bunny!
Haven't had any sickness - apart for eating too much chocolate.
But -------- I'm Still getting strong cramps which come & go. These aren't just twinges, they are strong, period pain cramps. Which are worrying.
I am a constant wiper. Paranoid is an understatement.
So that's it for symptoms but feeling not pregnant & reading everything on google is not helping. I'm still really worried that I should've see a HB on Monday. Blob was looking on the small side too. Which is what happened last time.
I'm trying to take some solitude in the fact that when Penny does your day 7 & 9 follicle scan her pictures aren't always that clear. She normally counts about 4 follicles & you end up getting twice as much. I know it's wishful thinking but that's how I'm managing to get through this days.
My Mum is now over so we've been off sightseeing around Athens. This is taking my mind off things. Mum said I should bring my scan forward but I said "what's the point, so I'll be miserable a day early?"
Make this a positive outcome.
I've booked an appt with my GP first thing Monday morning so I can be referred to EPU. I called the surgery from Greece yesterday & they initially told me I'd have to have a telephone consultation. I said that's fine but it may be expensive for you as I'm Greece! Then I got given an appt. Funny that!
Anyway off to have a long hot shower & try & decongest before another sightseeing tour.
I really do wish with all my heart that blob is growing inside of me & is my take home baby. Mummy loves you blob with everything I have to give.
