Organized and Zen

Thanks for everyones comments and support. I started this blog for myself, so that I could express my inner feelings, as this journey can sometimes be lonely and frustrating, however the support of the blogging community is absolutely fantastic! Merci!

I'm as organized as one can be. I've ordered my meds from the pharmacy and it will be ready for pick up on the 25 May. I've made the appointment with the nurse to come and give me my shots, starting on 26 May. I'm so glad that we have this option in France, as I could not imagine giving myself the shot. I suppose we do what is necessary when forced, so I'm just grateful I'm not forced to do that. I am a big chicken at heart after all! I've also started taking multi-vitamins and folic acid, as prescribed by the doctor.

Now, I just have to stay zen and in a few weeks this will all really start to happen. I'm pretty positive, upbeat, calm and hopeful. No use fretting over things I cannot control. Let's see if the power of positive thinking really works :-)

I really hope it happens for you!
I injected myself and after the first couple, you get used to them!

Good Luck!!

You're right Sass, it's all about habits. I'll ask the nurse to teach me how to inject myself and I could probably do this on my own eventually. I'm brimming with all this positivity for now, but when the time comes, I hope I don't chicken out.

Thanks for your well wishes and you know I'm thinking about you too.

Thanks Mrs. Babydream, I try to stay positive as much as possible. I am human and have fears, doubts, etc. but no use getting in the dumps about all that, as it does not help me or the situation.

You're a bit ahead of me for the IVF so I'm definitely sending positive vibes your way and hoping you will have a successful outcome my dear!
