And breathe....

Last injections today plus trigger tonight. It's all happening Monday morning. I'm feeling very tender. A bit sore. Very tired. OH missed two scans this week because he's on bed rest (he's a paraplegic and has gotten an old pressure sore flare up). Ideally he'd be on bed rest for the next couple of weeks but as I have egg collection Monday and he has to produce some fresh semen (and drive) he'll be sitting on his sore for most of the day. It's the worst timing. There really is no way the situation can be avoided. I was stressed enough but now I keep crying wondering how much we're going to set his healing back by. I'm sorry to say that I can't wait until all this is over. Just hope to God it's all been worth it!

HelloTugsgirl & Mr!

Hope you've had a restful day and really wish you all very best on the next stage! We all have situations and unavoidable at times but am sure you got this far all by yourselves so keep going. It's a very heartfelt post and can only send some positive vibes. Have you tried a little Accupuncture, we all know this is stressful to both partners ( I know too well, I think my partner has had enough lol ) and could be relaxing and maybe of some relief. Keep smiling, head high and drink plenty water, take your vitamines and deep breaths. We all need a moment to breath in and exhale....huge huge huge positive vibes to you both for the road ahead. Hugs, wishing you a relaxed weekend ahead of Monday 🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🙋🏻🙏🏼💋

Some good advice there ... it's not like you are being tested enough at the moment with the massive hormonal load that is coursing through your body! It never seems to get any easier does it - its rubbish for yoy both - there is always something else added to an already stressful time. You will both cope with it though and it is worth it ...I am sure your hubby would agree ..... So, to quote one of my very favourite ladies try to remember that all you ever have to get through is the next 5 mins and you are most definitely strong enough to do that. You don't need to look further ahead and borrow any more stress from what may or may not be, take the moment and be good to yourself /each other. Try to allow the emotion to flow through you ... it is better to let it out but dont hold on to it if you can xxxxxxxGood luck for Monday honey xxx will be thinking of you both xxx

Oh hon it's a lot to deal with. Crossing fingers and toes for you💕

Thanks everyone. He's promised me that if tomorrow makes his pressure sore worse that we'll call a nurse out to take a look on Tuesday. I know he's dealt with skin injuries over the years many many times but I can't help but worry about him x

Thank you thank you thank you everyone for the well wishes for tomorrow! I am beyond nervous at the moment. Doubt I will sleep much.. Hopefully OH won't do any further damage to his skin tomorrow.. I have some Lorazepam to take tonight and another for the morning. I have LOADS of follicles so... this time tomorrow it'll all be over and we'll both be on bed rest I hope xx
