Krikkit, it sounds like a smart move to rest up and focus on your recovery.

Em Star, as Joeve and my turn have said, CD1 (cycle day 1) is the first day of AF, but how that is defined varies. I personally use sunset as my cut-off, so, since AF started at 4pm Sunday and the sun was still shining, I counted that as CD1. If it had been night I'd have called Monday CD1. However, I know my FS uses 8am as a cut-off, so if you don't pretty much wake up with AF he calls the next day CD1. I didn't mention what time it started this time, or they'd have called Monday CD1 for me. At the other end of the spectrum, some women prefer to use the day AF starts, regardless of what time, so even if it starts at 11.50pm, then they still call that day CD1. If you don't have a Dr dictating how it's defined, then it's a question of personal preference. When it comes to the list, I think each woman's entry should reflect how she thinks about her own cycle.

myturn, we'd love to have your company here. I had to wait until 6 weeks for my post-d&c appt and it felt like forever! Does that date make yours about 10wks?! Hopefully we can help make the time pass more quickly.

Lots of hugs to everyone, since it seems to be that type of day for most of us:


ps. Having never gotten to blast in the lab, we have definitely never gotten the "what a beautiful blast" comment!!
