Wow did today ever start off as "one of those days"...I had to go to the dentist for a cleaning this morning. My husband told our dentist that we were going through IVF during our first cycle because he has work that needs sto be done that we just don't have the funds for right now. The dentist was extremely understanding and empathetic. J ended up seeing him just after we had been home for the memorial service for his dad and the failed IUI; so Dr. S knew we were going through a lot at once. I was anxious as to whether or not he would say something to me this morning. Sure enough he did. It was kind but it still stung. He commented that we've been going through a lot and I replied "We really have." Then he said to me "It's hard because we never really know what G-d's plan is for us." That one really through me for a loop. I know I live in the South but I just didn't expect my dentist to bring G-d into the conversation. When I got out to my truck I bawled. Being hopped up on hormones and having comments like that made just do not mix well together at all!
Tomorrow is a monitoring appointment and blood work...really hope those follies are growing!!
Good luck on your appointment tomorrow! Cheering for you and keep grow follies, keep growing!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteI absolutely hate that. so it's G-d's plan for me to be absolutely miserable and lose all my babies? Terrific. It's G-d's plan for everyone around me to have no problems at all trying to get pregnant, but I get medical issues galore?
ReplyDeleteI have a hard time with that.
Me too...I really don't think people realize how it makes us feel when they say it. It's almost like it's an easy out for them rather than acknowlodging how difficult it must be to walk in our shoes.
DeleteI hate when people mean well but then say the DUMBEST shit. Tell your follicles it is my birthday and the only thing I want from them is awesome growth. (I hope that's not too weird, that I would ask for a birthday present from your follicles...)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you! Your wish has been granted :)
