I've been meaning to post for a while now, but things kept getting in the way. It's been a crazy, busy month as usual and expected around this time of year. This weekend was Nutcracker weekend and I made my debut as Director of the production. Everything went really smoothly and all my dancers were amazingly fabulous! I truly am the proudest of "mother hens" right about now. Reviews from family and friends were fantastic, even from total strangers:) It's weekends like these that make all the blood, sweat, and tears...all those hours inside, away from my own real family and husband, completely worth it.
This weekend could not have come at a better time either. This cycle, cycle #6, I started taking Metformin. It wreaked a little bit of havoc on my stomach for a few days, but has been pretty good since I've gotten used to the medicine. According to my charting, it seems that I may be having a "normal" cycle. Last Wednesday, I had an OPK that was so close to positive, I had to call Eric in to ask him which line was darker. I've never had an OPK be even remotely close to positive...and since it was too close to tell and I needed a second opinion, I'm marking it in my chart as a positive OPK. Yesterday's temp was up, but today dropped back down somewhat. I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up, but who am I kidding...any glimmer of hope I might have a "normal" cycle, I'm all over it. So, like I said, this weekend was awesome for not only the above mentioned reasons, but also because it took my mind off the whole temperature/charting/ttc thing. A day or two more worth of temps will be able to tell me for sure if the met worked this cycle or not...keep your fingers crossed for me!
