Thanks Anney & Airline - so good to hear some comfort.
Anney - yes I gotta remind myself men handle things differently and they react differently too. Time to read some books I think!.
Airline - I appreciate your words of wisdom -intense is a very good word to describe it. I feel a pang in my heart whenever there's bubs involved - from reality to cartoons!!!..There's so much waiting and anticipation & hoping but also cautiously hoping come after EPU, growing to blasts wait, TWW involved in ivf, I had no idea. You think you're going along fine but then realise you just aint.
but thankyou your words have picked me up heaps.
so far the storm has passed and we have a counselling appointment to attend which I'm hoping will help me & DH understand those emotions.
hugs and I wish you all a good positive success too.

Just wanted to say if its any consulation, my body seems to be reacting exactly as you described. Mostly I feel fat AND insane! I also feel lumpy - I thought it was just me and I was in need of a trip of the gym!
Fingers crossed that this awful process results in a baby at the end of it.
i mean it is amazing that some women actually remain sane during IVF. it is so hard on your body and emotionally it is so much harder than normally TTC.
i am sending you a big hug . good luck. x o
