When we started this blog we said we would try to post often even if we didn’t have anything going on. I just wanted to acknowledge that we have been slacking in our blogging. there hasn’t been anything going on here really except waiting. I guess I thought no one would want to hear about the waiting. but I guess it has been more than waiting. like how I torture myself with every cramp I feel thinking,”oh is it starting?” how I have been so happy for my friend who is pregnant and at the same time sad because I want to be so much. worrying that something is wrong because it is taking so long. feeling a little emotional I guess. It is the time of year when I go in to the doctors for my yearly check to make sure I am still cancer free appointment. I know I don’t have anything to worry about in that department but it doesn’t make the testing any less dreadful, especially if we have to do bone marrow biopsy(ouch). but my doctor said we probably won’t have to this year since things have been going so well.
we asked Dr Silber about the time frame, he said not to expect regular periods for at least 140 days post op. so about one more month to go.
my body is definitely on a cycle even though I have not got a period yet. I have had mood swings, bloating and all the signs of pms, and a tiny bit of spotting. I started to track the days and used a home ovulation test yesterday and today which says ( if I am reading it right) we should be ovulating in the next 48 hours. this is really exciting so we will keep the site updated.
other than that, today was a beautiful day spent with my wonderful husband. We drove up to Napa, CA and did a little wine tasting and site seeing. the weather was so warm I even wore a dress.(not typical for a San Francisco summer) now we are home getting ready to throw some food on the grill and maybe snuggle up on the couch to watch a movie, and keep waiting together.
