woo hoo on confirming O BW - all looks to be fitting in perfectly for you!

well, i'm home with a killer headache and annoying sore throat today. somehow i think the sore throat is more stress related than a sign of anything else. headache is from neck being out, and from severe tiredness - not sleeping is VERY bad. DH got home at at about half one yesterday afternoon and left at five this morning, so i think some of my sleeplessness was stressing that HE would sleep in - the rest stressing that things are going to hell cycle wise! rang work, and asked them to move one of my days off to accommodate today - they said maybe - they'd have to check with someone further "up the ladder" - otherwise it's a personal day - wasn't a good thing to say to me - i came so close to telling them just to jam their job! the politics at that place are ridiculous - i dropped to 3 days a week so that i could swap and change days to accommodate the IVF stuff - i didn't exactly feel like telling a guy i went to high school with "hey, look, i know some of the reason i'm not comin in today is related to a headache - but mostly it's cos i didn't get my period at the weekend and i need to speak to my IVF clinic about the impact this is going to have on my treatment" - ffs! that stuff is personal - i shouldn't have to disclose it to get time out! they're not calls i could make at work anyway (work in a call centre - NO privacy at all!) - grrrrrr! called the clinic at 9 - nurse not there yet. dammit! left a message for her to call me back - no point going into detail on a message - i'm gonna talk to her when she calls back...

on the upside, with all the stresses going on with this cycle, DH and I had a massive marathon chat last night about everything. he's 100% behind me in whatever decisions i make at this point - and will support my choices. he's also agreed that, no matter when it falls, he'll be at the next FS appointment with me - he feels like i was bullied into doing things i honestly wasnt comfortable in doing, and wants to be there to back me up when i tell the FS that i'm p!ssed and to look at ME as an individual, not just another set of reproductive organs!
