On New Year’s Eve, in the middle of the afternoon, I got a text message from my college suitemate. I love her dearly, and she and I were pregnant at the same time, and miscarried within a couple weeks of each other. Since then, we have been keeping each other strong and using each other
New Year, New You.

How did you spend your New Year’s Eve?
I spent the night on the couch, in complete misery, because of some lovely leftover Femara side-effects from which I’m currently suffering. Things are feeling a whole lot better today, but the past 48 hours have been rough.
Thankfully, that issue does not seem to have knocked the whole cycle off track, and I’m feeling pretty good about things today.
I have one lead follicle that, when I trigger tonight, should hopefully be around 23mm when I trigger tonight, and those two twelves may have made it to maturity by tonight, too. The husband is off work until Friday, and even then he works day shifts on Friday and Saturday, so that will make SexyTime much easier to schedule this month.
With the stress of the holidays behind me, I feel like this is a much easier cycle to handle. Yes, there have been some problems, and yes, the beginning of the cycle falling right during the Christmas/anniversary/housewarming/New Year’s chaos was rough, but I feel good. Happy. Positive, even.
I feel like 2013 is going to be the year of the Take Home Baby.
Not just for me, but for so many of us who have been struggling for so long…
Hang in there, friends. This is the year it all changes. 🙂
