This morning I stretched as I was waking up and felt a sharp pain near my right ovary. I have a lot of period-like symptoms: bloating, cramps, low-grade headache. I know it's warm out and I've been trying to drink more water but I could be better.

Feelings-wise I'm kind of numb. I want to believe it worked but I'm very cautious not to get my hopes up so I'm trying to stay neutral and the best way I know how is just to not think about it even though it's always on my mind.

I've been trying to do small, extra things to do my part. For (TMI) example, going to the bathroom at work I usually hover over the toilet seat but the last couple of days I've been taking the time to make a TP barrier so that I can sit and relax. It's kind of gross but at least there's less tension when I sit down.

Our guests for Monday lunch cancelled because their babysitter cancelled on them and they don't want to come with their kids which is totally fine - we'll have them another time and for the time being it's one less meal to host. I should be taking it easy anyway.

Tomorrow I plan to wake up early to finish cooking for the 3 day yom tov. Maybe I'll post pictures if I remember to snap some before I pack it all into the freezer.

  1. It's okay to be cautious after what you've been through, I think that's natural. Just be where you need to be and be kind to yourself! I am hoping those symptoms all mean that the transfer was successful and you get good news next week!
