I think I was a little high on life yesterday. I was so excited to finally have a TTC plan in place. Now I'm starting to get anxious. I guess that's partially because there's no certainty to any of it. I don't even know when AF will show this cycle! Plus, I'm leaving on Sunday for a week at my parent's house and do I want to be on Clomid for Xmas? I think I may come clean to my mom about what's going on if I do.

I just want to throw up my arms and scream I think the timing with the holidays is just adding a little bit of extra stress.

Thanks for letting me vent.

(((HUGS))) I think what you are feeling is completely normal. Every time we got a new plan I'd get all excited, and then I'd get the blues for a while because I'd start thinking of all kinds of questions and doubts. It is just such a roller coaster! I think your plans sound wonderful, though, and I hope that this time next year you'll be rubbing a nice, round belly

I totally understand. With my job, the holidays are way too much stress to deal with any of this-- that's why we aren't doing anything (including me temping!) until after the holidays.. I'd say do what you think is right for you. If you are taking Clomid over the holidays, you may not even have any side effects, so you may not need to say anything. It's totally your call!

We will re-evaluate another IVF w/FET try in 2013.

((((((((((HUGS)))))))))) Kim. I feel ya (in a different way of course) I was going to say the same thing as Jackie, ive heard a lot of girls that didnt have any side effects really at all on Clomid, so that is up to you! I hope you figure out something that works for you though!! Im super p.i.s.s.e.d that this is yet another Christmas when I thought I was going to be able to share some amazing news in some cute way with our parents but that was ripped away from us yet again! Holidays are TOUGH when ttc!!!!!!!!!!!! Ugh!

Ditto! Even though I was excited about it all, I still thought to myself....what if this doesn't work. It's one of those risks you take.

You'll get more comfortable once you start it.
