Ok, So DH and I got back on the TTC wagon this month.
Since our RE appointment February 17, I have barely been able to think about anything else. Beginning Feb. 18 I started "nesting", I cleaned every freaking thing in my house from the ceilings down to the floors, inside and underneath everything. I threw away/ gave away over 20 large garden bags full of stuff. That worked as a distraction for a while, but there is nothing left in my house, it is empty and spotless. So for the past 4-5 weeks I honestly have not been able to spend more that 5 minutes focusing on anything. I am right now 8 days past O and the thought of waiting another week to do HPT is driving me crazy, but even more than that, the thought of getting a BFN (which I anticipate) and doing this whole process over again next month, and the damn waiting, Its driving me crazy.
My company really starts to pick up this time of year, and my work load increases drastically over the next few weeks and continues for 8 months. I can not focus on work at all. I spend the majority of my work hours reading about IF on the internet, early signs of PG, RE's, differnet treatments, IUI, IVF, ICSI. And as of late, I discovered the WebMD chat rooms, and many wonderful people, and of course this blogspot, and I am spending all of my days reading the stories of many of the women who are going through this as well. Some of them are very encouraging, but in truth, it is just feeding my obsession. I'm not sure how you all do it. If anyone out there has any tools or tricks for putting the TTC wait time out of your mind, please, let me know.

I'm laughing now, b/c I have the same prob! Def can't stay focused on anything else, the blogs are addicting.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Misty, I am totally addicted to the blogs, and checking for more updates on web.md. DH calls me a geek, b/c I'm always on the computer.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to tell you on how not to feed the addiction. But whatever you find out please share w/me cause I need all the help I can get. lol
