10 Weeks, 1 Day

So, it seems like I have reached a turning point in the pregnancy and it's making me a little nervous. For the past 4 weeks, I have gotten really pretty nauseous/hungry if I didn't eat every 2 hours. But, since yesterday, I've felt really pretty good. It seems like it's too early to be feeling this well. Makes me wonder if something is wrong in there. Yesterday was my last day of injectable meds so if something bad happens because of less progesterone supplementation, I would likely start showing symptoms (spotting, cramping, etc) in the next couple days.

I have my first visit with my OBGYN on Monday morning, so it won't be too long before I will know for sure that everything is ok (or not okay) in there.

Fingers crossed everything is ok.

Oh! I found out yesterday I am not the only pregnant nursing student in my class!!! One of my clinical group buddies is 6 weeks along. I know it's awful to say, but it's nice knowing I won't be the only one people will be whispering about once we start showing. She is super tiny, so I imagine she will start showing not long after me even though she is about a month behind.

Progesterone in Ethyl Oleate

Your plans mean nothing.

So we just got back from our scheduling appointment with the FET coordinator and it turns out we won't be doing the actual embryo transfer until the middle of December... like, the 18th. I was NOT planning to have a transfer that late. This puts us at a due date of around September 5th. I was maybe kind of okay with having a due date of mid-August, but September 5th is REEEEALLY pushing it. I will likely have my 3rd semester nursing program orientation on the 22nd, and because 3rd semester classes are on Wednesdays, I probably won't have class until the 29th. However, I really did not want to be due after the semester starts. This is really, really difficult. AND, if for some reason I don't start my period within 4 days of ending the progesterone from my mock cycle... not only will I not get to visit my mom for Thanksgiving (due to baseline ultrasound scheduling), we will likely not make the cut off for transfer before the clinic lab closes for the Christmas holiday... wh...
